Good news and Bad news. And Facts.

Good news first.

- Alive and Well!

- China was awesome.
- I finished another book!
- I have pictures! Here they are!

Bad news.

- Amazingly busy. Loaded with homework. Teachers love torture!
- China's toilets were appalling. Food was fattening.
- The author passed away last year due to cancer and she wrote AMAZING books.- Today was a school day so it felt like one too. It's a Saturday! Argh!

I have loads of entries that i wrote in my diary in China. I didn't have the time to post them and I didn't feel up to it. Here are some of the facts I wrote down. Oh yeah, the picture where the shoes are covered in things that look like shower caps are actually some plastic protection thingy for the floor. So we had to wear those to keep that certain extremely posh floor clean. I bet they were cheap shower caps. haha

Facts.

Missing numbers...

4)1 out of 5 in the population of China is Muslim. China has more that 1.2 billion to 1.5 billion people, so get thinking. Imagine that! China has the most Muslim population in the world.


5) China at that time when I went was Extremly COLD! I repeat, COLD! The Sun was also shining brightly, so it was extremely cold at night and in the morning and in the afternoon, imagine us taking off our jackets.

6)In 1979, couples who got married cannot make love. Why? because, that's how babies are made. So if you wanted the baby, you needed some kind of a permit. And that permit is only valid for one child. So let's say a couple got twins... One child will suffer in life, you need that permit for school, jobs and for a birth certificate.


7)Crystals can be made into sunglasses. I have one of it as proof too! haha.

8) The toilet that I just went to, had doors that were not only shorter than me... It couldn't lock. You could actually peek at the person next door. I was the only person in the toilet, so don't worry. The toilets here also do not provide tissues or hot water, so cold water was the only option. Oh yeah, Some toilets don't even have doors, sometimes no curtains either, and some just have holes.

9) I walked more than 300 steps in a CAVE on the 7th of Jan, 2007. Was also in come cable chair car thingy. Very windy, very cold, very dry, and very shaky. Let me remind you of something, I'M SCARED of HEIGHTS! See the real cable car with two people inside? That thing can sway and rock from side to side better than me! Even the chair thingy wasn't as rocky.

10)One of the places I went to, called Da Li, has loads of love stories.

11) Chinese in China are smart, hardworking but are dirty, unhygienic, disgusting, cruel, and inconsiderate. I may sound like I'm exaggerating, but it's true!

12) 80% of women regularly cry...

See the two basins, those are live living creatures, whatever they are, it's disgusting. People here seem to enjoy it a lot though. Anyway, these are all my opinions, do not be offended or anything. I'm just voicing out how I feel, I don't want to end up in a home for sick people! All Right! That should be all for now, enjoy the pictures!
