Stuff I enjoy about China today.

How you can leave for two weeks and when you come back, three MILES of shops can be completely torn down and a new freeway half-built. And you didn't even know, two weeks ago, that they were building it. And neither, probably, did the owners of the shops.


How Chinese men wear their shirts in summer.


My Ayi's blue lace bicycling capelet.

Not having to buy any school supplies.

The freespirited exuberance of floral-on-floral-on-floral outfits.

How everyone is always universally delighted by my mastery(?) of Beijing slang. And the immediate price reductions it gets me.

You'd probably enjoy seeing me then too cuz that's pretty much how all my shirts look these days.

It's about as equally as attractive.
