Where am I?????
Try to guess where I am…..here are a few hints:
- I accompanied my girlfriend to the hospital only to find the doctor in the examination room smoking
- My friend Leo took me out to lunch with his family. There were 4 of us total. We had our own room and three waiters whose only responsibility was waiting on us. Leo still managed to yell at the waiters when they were slacking, barking out orders like he was a military officer, and the waiters all complied and didn’t even flinch.
- In the changing room at the gym, Two guys smoked before starting their workout
- I got a 3 hour massage at the bath house for 60RMB ( $7.50 US)
- It took me 3 hours today and two trips to the bank to get my online banking activated, and it still doesn’t work well
- I spent 4 hours haggling over the price of plastic monthly cards (like you use at a gym) to ultimately save 25RMB ($3.13 US)
The list goes on and on, but those are a few of the highlights.

AJ – I guess your clues mean that you’re back in China, and happy to be there. It sure is a different life! I’m glad you’re happy, and that things are going so well for you and Shenqi.
