Woke up and saw no improvement in the bites/spots. Nothing was working, so I made a doctor’s appointment to check on them. Nothing particularly interesting happened, except Guo Xiaojie did give me a map of China. I only asked them where they got them so I could buy one, but they gave one to me for free! Yay! I hung it on the wall in front of my desk so I could look at it any time I’m doing work. Nicole Lee also happened to be in town and was surprised when I saw her in the student center.

Contemporary China was pretty interesting this week. We watched a documentary about a family and their housing problems. They lived in a tiny house and couldn’t wait for the government to relocate them. I wasn’t very sympathetic for them though, since they said some outrageous stuff about 9/11. Regardless of the actions of a few politicians, 3000+ people DID NOT deserve to die.
