Hello everybody!
I got 2 problems on my young head, so I need advice!! Please
I would appreciate it!!!

1) I studied in Fuzhou till April 2010 chinese language programm, after that I applied for Shanghai International Studies University, when I came back home I taught I'm gonna live out of school coz its cheaper than schools dormitory, so when I got back home My parents didn't accept this choice, so they are asking me to move into dormitory, I accepted this advice, so I called to my school about dormitory and they told me they don't have any room availble, the (problem)thing is where else I can live? Is there also any other secure like dormitory places around SISU?

2) I got visa 5th of August for 1 month and its tourist visa, will I have enough time to change it to student visa and how? There is also a little problem I bought ticket for 19 of August Thursday, Im confused?

Anybody help me with this! Hope will receive many advices!!!

Thanks in advance!
