First Week in China

Wow it's been a crazy week. Hmm lets start with the plane ride. Very very long and you really cant sleep. The trip to Vancouver felt long but that was only...3~4 hours? Then when we reached Vancouver we had to rush to the next flight and sit for 12 hours? So painful, your legs can't get into a decent position. But on that flight I did sit next to a nice girl from Shanghai who didnt mind telling me where to go and helped me a little with chinese. (Don't worry sweety, she was older and I was always thinking of you =P) That flight was unbelievably long and I couldnt sleep till the last hour. I finally found out how to sleep. You have to put down your little eating tray and lay face down. I had a good 1 hour nap till they slammed a cup of noodles next to me to wake me up. Damn you !!

Anyways, res is pretty good. Normal room, with a TV, ac...(was broken but finally got it fixed today..one week later), and a normal toilet. What I mean by normal is not a troph. To use the washroom in the school, you piss on the wall into a troph. It's so nasty!! And on top of that there is a mop there. I think you're suppose to do something with it but i dont dare try.

We had a trip to Suzhou. So pretty. We went to Tiger Hill. Saw lots of things. Like a rock that was used for testing a sword. It was split open, and some people said that the monkey king may of came from it? Then there was a giant pagoda. Lots of pictures. Lots of fun. Next we went to a tea place. Pretty cool they showed us how to serve tea and stuff. I got suckered into buying some hehe. The next place was called the Humble Administrator's Garden. It was huge. I wish that I had a back yard like that! I took lots of pictures so I wil have to post them sometime when i get the chance.

There have been lots of crazy things happening here. Mostly silly. Like one of my friend's being offered a baby by some old lady. We didnt know if she was joking. But that baby was cute. The pants have a hole in the back, so you can see their butt haha. That means when they crap, it just goes out the back.

Anyways gonna go back to get some lunch now...i should write all this down.

A few extra stuff to add..
