Things that are crazy about China, or weird, or as I would like to call them "different"
the bathrooms, let me just explain this to you. You walk in to my bathroom and it is a giant walk in shower with the toilet and the sink right in there with it (not very cleanly), and the hot water lasts for I'd say about 10 to 15 min depends on how finicky it is that day. And don't get me started on public bathrooms, can you say squatty potty? haha
The food, sometimes I feel like it's not so clean lol yes I just said my food isn't so clean.
The people and how they find burping or hacking a loogy is acceptable in public. Or how they take pictures of the crazy Meiguoren (americans) as they have their taiji class in the middle of the park. I went for a run yesterday and had people taking my picture....AW thanks guys I didn't realize I was FAMOUS!
How there is absolutely NO central heating in any building south of the Yangzi River (guess where I am?). So Cold
China is so different from back in the States, but that's okay because it is all an experience right? There is so much to love though, the bakery's and how you can find one absolutely everywhere. The buildings are so beautiful. And the fact that I am a two min walk from the Ocean! The language is hard, but it's coming along :) and the culture here is so interesting.
Went to something called a "lantern festival" the other night and it was absolutely beautiful. It's the year of the dragon so there were dragons everywhere and some of the lanterns they had up were so adorable. Don't worry pictures will be posted soon :)
Classes are starting to come to the end of the first half of semester and I will be taking my finals in less then a week (EEEEKKKK). Then off on our "trek" where I get to visit some of THE COOLEST places (Yes y'all should be jealous). Then when I come back I start my internship, soooo nervous but soooo excited.
