This morning we had midterms, which covered 763 new words (yes, we counted), 14 lessons worth of grammar, and a 10 minute speech. Luckily, it sounds worse than it actually was. Now that it's over, I can relax for... 1 day. But next week another one of my good friends from high school, Kevin Watford, who I visited in Shanghai a few weeks ago, is coming up to Beijing with his father to explore the city. And yes, it is crazy awesome that two of my friends randomly decided to pop over to China at the same time, considering that we all scheduled our respective trips separately.
Tonight we're headed to Laoshe Chaguan, a play called Tea House written by a famous Chinese author called.... Laoshe. Not only is it a traditional Chinese performance, but we also get served traditional snacks and teas, which I'm excited about. I'm sure pictures will be forbidden again, just like the Chinese Acrobatics, so you'll have to live with some pandas for now.
the zoo had better scenery than the "scenic spots"
ridiculous rhino collection... there were 6 huge ones
where else can you PET zebras
and of course the treasured, priceless, and
mind-boggingly boring great panda.
as shown here, wasting my time.
the beautiful sights of Houhai
some guy was doing calligraphy with water
and a brush the size of a baseball bat
each bar has these eclectic couches outside,
but nothing can beat a Michael Jackson theme
PANDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA SO CUTEEEEE, wish i can pet one.
