nothing is quite like the chill days here in beijing. comes home to already cut seedless watermelon and neatly folded laundry on the bed. skypes with the mother being warned to spend wisely while i was given a credit card. wakes up with no pimples when i check myself out in front of the mirror. gets sent off to work by my loving dad cuz he's sacrifacing his precious sleeping time to be my driver. grabs a 肉包子 with sweet soymilk to start off the day at work. gets owned at work cuz im still a noobie. feels frustrated but recovers from reading a email filled with xoxo. fixes my mistakes and completes given task despite going OT. walks 3 blocks to yashow - this is where all the observation happens. in previous summers i've gone through bus rides, subway rides, but never walk around the city absorbing a sense of BJ lifestyle on the streets. it's as hot as hell here but you can feel the level of comfort in how the chinese adapt to this loving city, including thinking they will never get hit by cars even when it's green light for cars. finally makes to my shopping destination alive and enjoys the fact that i haven't lost my bargaining skills, although they have deproved quite a lot. all the stress from bargaining then leads me to go sit down and do nothing - nail salon. yes. and let the painting begun =) medi and pedi ultimate cure. and then? well, barstreet is 1min away from me so time to ring up the girls for some drinks, catch-ups, and 串儿.
never felt better.
