China Journal 2008-09-09, 10:50Pm

Finally ate after all that! Noodles. Good. Best thing about Chinese noodle eating is that you don’t actually twist the noodles, like we do, around the fork. Instead you slurp like a vacuum in a puddle. It’s awesome! All my manners from home are now forgotten and replaced with slurping, grabbing food from other people’s plates and putting my elbows on the table. Burping is fine too.. I assume… ha! After a bit of a break we took a half hour bus ride to a kung fu store. Weapons everywhere. EVERYWHERE!! I have pictures. Go look at them. I bought some good stuff too. Rolf got crazy metal claw gloves with spikes! We were like kids in a candy store! We were allowed to pick up and play with everything so, of course, we did. there was a sword almost as tall as me! I wanted to buy everything so I may go back and buy more someday. I bought a meteor hammer and will learn it. After getting back from the store Rolf, Tyler and I went for food at an awesome place only a short subway ride away. They had something called princess made milk bun or something like that. I need the recipe. It was the best thing ever. EVER!! It was sweet but not strong sweet. I can’t even describe it. best thing ever. EVER! EVER! I will eat it again. also, vinegar looks like soya sauce. I made my rice taste crappy. It made me sad. The buns made me happy though!! We ran back through the rain. Turns out I love running in the rain. I am tired. I’ll respond to emails tomorrow after training! Night night.
