Making friends in China?

I am a Chinese-American college student with somewhat minimal chinese speaking ability (cannot read/write can speak and understand conversational chinese) and I am traveling to China in a couple of months. Through some family connections, I have obtained a job/internship at a company and will be staying in China for 3 months.

What is a good way for me to meet some english-speaking people my age (18)? I know it's kind of a strange thing to ask about but because of my poor Chinese, I am afraid I won't be able to connect and meet with other people and will end up extremely bored during my stay. Help!

    I lived in China while I used to be more youthful and I went to an global university. Kids in China are relatively into pop tradition, and due to the fact you are going to an American university, I'd say that they're going to be into American celebrities and song/films. Also, Korean song is lovely ultra-modern in China too. Soccer is extra general than soccer (that is close to nonexistent there). So speak approximately the above, and likewise there may be KTV that is karaoke. It's slightly high-priced in a few locations however a fine position to hang around at the weekends. Also, if the opposite youngsters there have moved from America, you'll attempt to speak approximately wherein they are from, and if you are from the equal position you men have whatever to narrate to
