Don't Ask Me Why He Needs To Be So Free...

Back in Yichang.
everything was a mess and i stepped on a cockroach with my bare feet.
spent a few days to clean up, the apartment, not the cockroach. water pipe busted in the bathroom, then the toilet stopped working. not that it matters, because the water doesnt run in our apartment today anyways, should u need to relieve yourself. Across the square u go. Good thing we have friends in this city.

But i am happy to be back. Learned a few things already, like, the latest in Contact Fashion. If you are Chinese, you like, totally have to use a stick to put your contact in your eye. Fingers are like, such a thing of the past.
Also, the students are pleasently surprised that i dont have a beancurd on my face anymore (a beard). they like for me to look younger apparently.
New food in the city: Popcorn chicken, sold in a bag at the big grocery store downtown. Ill write it again for added effect: popcorn chicken, in a sealed bag. that is unheard of. note: our town ultimately still is not that big, things really are changing.
teaching: right now i just have ten hours, postgraduate, and its only wednesday and thursday, which is amazing and i really hope nothing changes.
Year 3: Let the games begin.
