We do what we can to Forget

The complications around my visa keep adding up and I wouldn't have managed another day if it hadn't been for Kathy dragging me out to the clubs. Admittedly, we did not have much to drink (don't get me wrong, we drank bottles in plural, but they contained so little) but we most certainly ruled the dancefloor. Kathy and I and Hong Yan on the podium, Korean Boy and I on the podium, the four of us around the pole - I am finally surrounded by people who knows how to work it! I almost collapsed dancing and would have taken pictures if my camera had not been stuffed into a locker - today's pictures are posted with the courtesy of Kathy.



We played the tissue game, rescued Korean Boy from a Very Enthusiastic American girl and kissed around ice cubes - I can honestly say that I didn't think about my visa once.








The small of my back, my thighs, my stomach and my neck - I am so terribly hurt today and I couldn't be happier. We slept at five or six after walking down by the water, empty streets and soft lights... I could not help but feel a little romantic. Not everyone was, though. We met people who had just finished swimming around 后海 just for the sake of Fun and I was almost jealous.

Korean Boy is sweet, terribly so, but he speaks very little Chinese and almost no English (though he understands some) and since I only know one word in Korean ("neh", which, amazingly enough, means "yes") we have to rely on my skills as a Chinese teacher to get our points across. We try our best and it's fun - I can honestly say that I don't mind.

There's still fun to have, and there has to be a way to fix this visa thing - I just haven't found it yet.

Chinese of the day:
"对不起,我不是故意的吻你!"
I'm so sorry, I didn't kiss you on purpose!
