| | I'll be leaving China this next week, and after 10 months of adventure
and hilarity I'm really going to miss this place. China is
awesome! Bottom line is if you have the means to live here for
awhile you don't have a choice, you're coming. The top five best
things about China include:
1. Chinglish: When english is translated into an
incomprehensible mess. i.e. I now own a t-shirt that says "E
Fashion Is A Life For You Life Is Like The Tree.
2. Chinese People: There are many stereotypes about chinese
people that are sometimes true and other times not true but whatever
people say Chinese people are generally speaking hilarious.
3. Bargaining: The great thing about bargaining is that
people yell the craziest things at you to buy their stuff and even
crazier things when you don't. Once someone yelled at me in the
hopes that I would want to buy underwear "Hello, Underwear!" And
once when I was walking past a booth in a market someone yelled out to
me "Hello handsome man, you want to buy shirt for your
girlfriend?" I said "No" Then she tells me "You are not
handsome and you have little hair."
4. Language: Chinese is sweet and you can say some really
funny things like I'm so hot I'm going to die or I hate you to death or
I'm starving to death...
5. Chinese food: Mandarin cuisine is so awesome but I do miss the good old cantonese in Chinatown.
So here is my last post from China but thanks to friends and family for
the support it really helped me this year. Some really cool
things happened at our school that I can't wait to tell you guys about
when I get back home next week.
