You can't unless you have a VPN. The great firewall blocks all things facebook, twitter and youtube.

Great Firewall (Internet censorship system of Chinese gov) use DNS hijacking, IP blocking and keyword IDS (Intrusion Detect System) to prevent you accessing facebook, twitter, youtube and more.

1. DNS hijacking : the DNS nameserver controlled by Chinese gov will give you an incorrect IP of one website, and with DNS cache it will poison all the internet.
2. IP blocking : some server IP (twitter for example) are totally blocked, there is no way but to use proxy to access to it.
3. keyword IDS : This is the most advanced part of GFW which is developed by Cisco, In the blacklist there are many sensitive keywords, if one some sensitive keywords are detected, the TCP/IP connection will be reset by GFW, and your brower will give you "The connection was reset" message.

You can use free proxy such as tor, freegate, wu jie to unblock facebook.

Also, you can use VPN to establish encrypted connection to unblock these sites, and prevent the censors from watching you.
You don't have to install any software on your system by using PPTP VPN which is supported by Windows/Mac/iphone/android, and you can get it from: http://www.gfwvpn.com

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
