I only have 61 videos up. I shoul have had more, but you know how it goes. Here are a few you might want to check out.

Disneyland Hong Kong Viewed by a Cynic https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B69_gn2-V08&t=3s

I make snarky remarks about the things I see at Disney, then I am brought to tears by riding Hyperspace Mountain. Why did I cry? Because it is almost like being in the battle scene from Star Wars (1977). It is THAT. GOOD. Wish I had some onboard footage, but I don’t.

WTF Foods 7 Chicken Feet https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SwU7vwVuSt8

I try the delicacy of chicken feet. WTF stands for “What the Fuck” a series of videos where I try odd or unusual food/drink I find here in China.

Great Wall Mutianyu Section Toboggan Slide https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ccYjdSVbho&t=1s

I take the easy way down after climbing up to the Great Wall. This is a fun way to get down. This has actual onboard camera video.

Gloria and Stephaine Practice Their Chinese! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yUsrL-7Mn2U

Our tutor cancelled out on us one night, so we go to my apartment to practice on our own. Let’s just say, our pronunciation sucked, but the translation app spat out some truly epic, off the wall poetry.

Apparently a province is lifting the age requirement for work so that 60 is not the limit anymore. That’s good news, because it means that I can try for a job there. I really want to stay past 60. I’m not ready to come home yet.

Asked “where do you see yourself in 10 years?”

Dead, probably.

I think I didn’t post yesterday. Sorry!

I’ve noticed that after April 8, summer begins. It happened again this year. It seems that starting on April 8, the weather becomes summery. And this year, it was no exception. Wednesday was nice, Thursday was friggin’ hot, and today was hot too. The sunset was just a red ball in the sky. And the mountain was in the perfect position to eat it.

The photo quality isn’t so great. Sorry about that, but I had to zoom in to get more detail.

After finding out Engllish Corner was cancelled, I went to the grocery store and got some stuff. Came home planning to walk to the bank, only to see my neighbor emerge from his apartment. We went to dinner together, then I continued my walk to the bank.

I didn’t get home until 1:30 in the morning.

And I was still wired.

So I got more grading stuff done, but not as much as I wanted to. But it’s okay.

Nice to have energy again!

Woke up this morning at 2 a.m. for no good reason. Made it through class and part of the afternoon. Came home after lunch and took a nap and was basically lazy the rest of the day.

But my Christ, what a mess I had to clean up yesterday. I made the mistake of going without underwear, and on the way to the bathroom, I exploded from both ends. Probably the first time I had actual shit in my living room in my entire life.

I cleaned up though. Still felt a bit woozy today, but in a bizarre twist, my back has felt the best it’s ever been. Go figure.

Pretty sure it was food poisoning. Good thing I had the day off.
