... made sense of one of the most senseless and stupid songs I've ever heard. Some people say that it's all a load of rubbish and that it is just a normal Christmas Song. Maybe those who question it have never actually read the insane lyrics to this song! Maybe those who question it have also never tried to sing this crazy song. You seriously have a much better chance of singing a Slayer song. They also have some ...

... a bit. The dining hall at our foreigners' compound made Dumplingfest a Sunday staple, and I'd go for lunch and eat 40 of them. Then, for dinner, they'd pan-fry 'em to make sure they all got used. I ate 40 more, appreciative of the increased oil quotient against the biting Beijing cold. In those days, Beijing dumplings were a special occasion. Families whose entire home was a single room gathered in communal cinderblock ...

... along the way. He knows the names of a lot of them and even from a different angle or direction he is able to tell where he is. And some how we ended up just north of Yangshuo and back home. This little trip was just over 6 hours. He promised it would not be 8 like the last one. But half way through the trip he also reminded me that there was gaurantee to be any roads. All in all it was a great day. Who knows what next week will bring.

... Xian for a week of Summer Camp. He was a Politics Teacher in Xining City in Qinghai Province. As we both got along very well we swapped phone numbers and emails in hope that next summer I will finally get to Xinjiang Province. I will be hoping to head back to 'Main China' through Qinghai Province and he has offered to take me too many places that most never get to see. Around two everyone slowly ...

... I have ever endured. To illustrate the experience, below are some of my experiences from my journal, with the approximate times the events were occurring. 8:00 PM: I've been hiking for about an hour and a half now. Twenty minutes in, and I was already out of breath. The ascent is so steep---up, up, up---with barely any breaks. Light-headed, legs throbbing, and only a quarter of the way. Interruptions every three minutes as I stop for air. The sun sets ...

... or train stations and market places. After a huge meal that consists of about twenty courses and a billion bottles of beer, before heading to the next destination my friends will usually head for the nearest corner for snacks! I can't do anything but simply shake my head in disbelief...it's all about SNAX! TODAY Today's menu of snax begins with some ...

Foreigners need to enter college, the need for search, collection of cameras, the temporary seizure of identity cards or drivers license, when returning from college.

... Lhamo. Compared to China's crazy overpopulated cities, this is a small, mostly Tibetan town surrounded by gorgeous, undulating mountains at the headwaters of the Dragon River and the provincial boundaries of Gansu, Qinghai and Sichuan. On arrival, the weather signals we are up in the mountains by showing us our own words in front of us and blanketing us with snow. The cloudy skies serve to emphasize the clear difference ...

... that my trusty backpack feels about 100lbs heavier than when I put it on the train. The Tibetan girls at the hotel insist on bringing my back up the stairs, and I begrudgingly oblige, embarrassed that I am so out of breath. The air is much thinner here, although much clearer and refreshingly pollution free from the crowded cities of Beijing and Xi'an. It takes some getting used to just walking around at this altitude.
