new job maybe

So some young woman came after chinese class one day a couple weeks ago to see if people wanted to do voice recordings of children's books in english. I was super interested. She called me to come do a test recording and they liked my rendition of "little girl". So over 2 consecutive weekends, I spent 4 hours reading lines of an english book in a little girl voice. I believe these are English books for primary school children in china to purchase to help them with the test they have to take to get into middle schools. So I'm getting paid 150 yuan an hour (a little under $19) to do this, although I haven't gotten paid yet. hmm. she's supposed to contact me again this week. my father doesn't think I'm going to get paid, but she was super nice and it was professional, and I even met a guy who was recording after me that was in the same program as the guy who taught at my school last year. so I'm not really worried. and if anything, it's fun and a good experience. It's kind of weird because I just sit at a desk in the recording studio and read random lines slowly and clearly. They don't always go together logically because they're from different parts of the book, and I don't know what the other characters are going to say, but it's fun anyway. "Hi, my name is Amy." "This is my friend, Mickey." "My mother is a nurse." "How many are there?" and you know, the normal range of basic children's books.
