I got to brain storming the other day about what has happened in the last year. I have compiled a list of things that I have used or haven’t done. If that makes since. Ok here we go.
I never lived in a building with an elevator before coming to China. I have lived in one for the past year.
I’ve eaten one quarter of a box of mac and cheese in the last year.
3-4 grilled cheeses.
I haven’t had a glass of real chocolate milk for the past year.
I’ve used 2.2 tubes of Carmex in the last year.
I haven’t watched an entire American tv show live.
I’ve almost been hit by a car several times.
I’ve heard the Black Keys once in a bar, The Chili Peppers several times.
I’ve heard a band play Metallica’s Sad But True in a bar live.
I’ve eaten one apple fritter.
Bought one phone.
Eaten pig intestines, dog, brain, etc, etc.
And the mother of them all. I haven’t talked to a white girl (western) in a year. Yes I’ve talked to my mother. But in person, I haven’t met another white girl. I’ve met Russians, Koreans, Chinese, Philippians, Taiwanese. It’s kind of a weird thing to think about. That really, I’ve only talked to Asian girls for the past year. Crazy. Anyway.
Ok, things that are going to happen when I get home to visit.
I am going to have my mom make, bread, cookies, cinnamon rolls.
Going to eat venison, a long john, steak and potatoes.
Pizza, and whatever else I haven’t had.
Haha. Good times.
Things that I might possibly get in trouble for.
Spitting on the street. Noises while you eat. Drinking beer in public. I’m sure there are more. I just can’t remember.
Anyway. Good times.
