Rooster Gone Traveling
Lady on the bus brought Rocky the Rooster with her π Yes, he’s alive! Well behaved I’d say!
Lilac Scent πΊ
The #lilac trees are blooming! They smell so good β.(*Β΄β½`*)β.πΊ
20 Minute Massage – $1.50
Something I love about Chinese airports and train stations is the massage chairs. Usually costs between 10rmb to 15rmb ($1.50 – $2.00) for 15 to 30 minutes. These are $1.50 for 20 minutes. Makes for a lively, doable treat when you have a 4 hour layover and 48hours of no sleep!
#Cooking Excitement
#cooking in #China π When you live in a #itsybitsy apartment with no counter space and definitely nooven, you have to do a little engineering for #baking #chocolatechipcookies π So instead we use an old #target game board and a table oven. My life is so much fun!

The Other Mother – #Huawei
Haha! π I Love my #huawei Chinese phone. It has the best #English descriptions for things sometimes. Apparently our #Weather is ‘dreary and very unhealthy’ – you know, life just sucks sometimes π I just got a Warning from the phone for Tuesday when it’ll get down to 21degrees!!! – so cold they asked me to check my ‘mouth muffler, ear mufflers, and gloves. π It’s like Having a second mom. π

Life in #China – Singing at #KTV is Awesome :)
I β€ KTV and #music!! It’s the Chinese name for #Karaoke . My students and I like to Visit this one because It’s cheaper during the day. Usually in China, you can go during the day for a lot less than at night. Sometimes you can get a free room as long as you buy a certain amount of snacks π It’s a great way for the students to practice their #esl π This one just updated their pictures outside!
The #Chinese #Dollhouse π
βI’ve been sick today so I was playing on Taobao and found these adorable/hilarious dollhouse items. If You’ve ever lived in China you’d know how accurate these images are π Down to the cheap Chinese prngle alternatives (they look exactly like that!), cooke tins, and Green tea Oreo knockoffs π. I’ve been Coke Zero free for more than a month, but those bottles are so funny. And the fanta soda. π

Happy Β Chinese #LanternFestival!
β
Happy Lantern Festival! Tonight is the night (15 days after #ChineseNewYear ) when the Chinese light paper lanterns and send them up to the sky.
My picture wasn’t very good π I’ll post a better one later. But the #moon sure was pretty! Here in Zhengzhou, we have the highest smog records for the country, so the moon is a rare night. Today was perfect for the festival! Clear skies, brisk air, and a good wind. π
Wishing you all the best and a great upcoming year! π

The New Hotel Security System
Haha!π Visited a 5β hotel this weekend and found that the bathroom was entirely see-through. Embarassing, no?!? Asked my students why and got this lovely response ‘Many hotels in China do this. It’s very common. Because sometimes the men, they come with a strange woman. Or two. Or different ones. And when they go to the bathroom, all their money is taken. So this way they can see and be safe.’ π π That’s hilarious. A five star hotel arranges its bathroom around keeping rich men safe from their ‘women’. Sad. Very, very sad. #lifeinchina #china #travel #humor #abroad, #whataworld
