Just finished inhaling five roasted jiaozi in about two minutes, along with a gift from God called blueberry iced tea (I've already forgotten the Chinese name). Can it get any better?
On other notes, I just bought an electric bike (pretty much equivalent to America's moped for about $130US. Women go out and buy purses, bags, carryalls, and so on, men, we buy hogs and by hogs I mean electric bikes that go 25 km/hour. 一放面 my main reason was for convenience as I hate waiting an hour to get on a crowded bus to go to Starbuck's and study, but 另外一方面 is that Charlie has already gotten one, and frankly its a blast just cruising the city with a good friend. Say what you want about studying abroad without good friends, but so far the experience has only been enhanced because one of my good friends is along for the ride.
Friends always make shit more fun.
Going on a solo excursion to Gulang Yu this weekend, which one of my professors stated was the Chinese equivalent of the Greek Islands, only it only costs $75US there and back. I'll update everyone upon my return. Hopefully I'll have pictures both of Gulang Yu and of me on my new hog (also name suggestions for the bike are appreciated)! Until next time...

Hey Matt, it's your little bro.
Not Brendan, the other one.
China sounds like a complete blast...aside from the five hours in a starbucks doing homework. Yeesh.
Still sounds like you're at least getting to absorb some culture there, and I gotta say it sounds fantastic. Sad to see the Hawk go though, would have been showing the Chinese a TRUE hairstyle.
Everything at home is pretty solid. Brendan figured out how to climb onto the roof, Kerry is obsessed with the high school musical girl who put up nude photos of herself, mom claimed that I tried to ram another car, and Dad is starting to speak in ebonics.
When I'm the normal one in the house, you know something wrong. Although to be fair, I did drink 24 cans of green tea in 6 days... hmmm...
Seriously man, everything's awesome at home. Brendan's doing well at his new school, and we think it's gonna be really good for him.
My classes look pretty solid this year, but honors physics with Fowler looks like it is going to be ridiculously hard. On the upside, Gilly is THE MAN. Hands down.
Oh, and by the way, your patriots are cheaters.

Woops, forgot you like the giants. I've been hanging out with Joey too much.
