la ferme intention de payer pour tous.



Je crois qu'il me teste. Donc en fin de soiree je l'ai inviter
demain au resto avec Mashi. Rira bien qui rira le dernier! Surement
lui. Mais il rira surement quand je regarderai pas, donc en quelque
sorte il voudra que je garde la face dans tout cet argument, mais
neanmoins avoir la gratification d'avoir ete le derniere a rire.

... comme un mini-bebe-tout-petit-tremblement de terre. C'etait peu intense, mais je suis sur que le maire de la ville a ete evacue. Parce qu'on a vu un avion partir.

J'ai aussi rencontrer un ecossais noir.

Bon alors a l'histoire de la journee.

On est arrive a la rue des bars, comme d'habitude, avec la ferme intention de pas depenser un seul kuai. Pis la on achete un red bull et on ruine ce plan. Bravo les boys.

Pis la on rentre dans un ...

... 10 cents per hour, ideally. But I'll break that rule to try new foods or a nice, local meal. I normally spend $2-$5 per day on food here.

I hear that social networking to get jobs is enormous here. You have to go out drinking with people (women must also) and if they like you and you buy them drinks, they might hire you. Being in the communist party is a highly sought after position and it enters you into a upper class of society.

Now on to Shangri-la...

... dish, which looked like coconut shrimp but when you ate it tasted like orange and melted in your mouth.

We headed home after that, and it was even harder than before to stay awake. I did manage to get a couple of decent pictures of the countryside, since it had stopped raining, but they really give an accurate impression of it. I wish my pictures from some of the rockier, maybe foothill parts of our drive, because the scenery was very pretty. Everything here is ...

... walk with many different kinds of shops and food. I really liked this place; it was higher quality stuff tan in Beijing and better prices, so I kind of kicked myself for some of the things I bought. There was sugar art, blown glass, chopsticks, artwork, bugs in glass, rice in glass, and so much more. I ate fried rice balls, which were very good, along with an indeterminable smoothie, an egg pancake, and some other things. I hope we go to the street ...

... Whilst staying in Chengdu we booked a 3 day cruise down the Yangtze river through the three gorges for new year. We had heard mixed reviews about it so was not sure what to expect. As it turn out despite a long buss journey (obviously they didn't tell us about that! ) it was excellent. the boat was like an old worn out huckleberry fin river boat and we had to change ...

... in Chongqing). She called to say that she is now in Chengdu. Somehow, she decided to take the express train to visit us in Chengdu. Pete and I met her 14 years ago in Chongqing and we saw her elder daughter who was studying English and struck conversations with Pete nicely. My aunt was elated to see me and told me a lot of her life and her family. We had a picture taken with her. Later after dinner, we sat down to wait for the long-waited ...

... zoals speelgoed, plastic namaaktassen, goedkope t-shirts etc. Dan hebben sommige steden nog de enorm dure malls met de Europese merken, alleen toegankelijk voor de echte rijken. In sommige steden leek het wel of je alleen nep-gucci of echte gucci kon kopen maar geen andere merken of merkloze dingen. Chengdu had behoorlijk wat betere Chinese merken die niet namaak waren, maar gewoon een nieuw merk (alhoewel soms met erg rare - europees klinkende - namen zoals teenie weenie ...

... sleezy. I've also heard that they are known to get in fights with other minorities and pull knives on them. I will be ready to come home to how clean America is. China is so dirty!! I've learned to live with it, and often find humor in it, but still cringe a little. People spit on the streets all the time. Most likely because of pollution. Even old women!! It's loud and disgusting. Not only that, but children (about 2 ...
