Some randomness for your enjoyment...

Living in a foreign country there are many quirks to discover. I thought it might be fun to share some of them with you, enjoy!

1. I live on the 18th floor of an apartment building in the city but there are chickens on my roof, I hear the rooster crowing every morning. I like it.
2. I have a squatty toilet in my bathroom and my shower is almost directly above it so I almost fall into my toilet sometimes when I am showering.
3. I was told today that the Chinese language has about 90,000 characters...ai ya! I have my work cut out for me.
4. The word to brag in Chinese is made up of the words to blow and cow, so bragging is blowing a cow.
5. I was sitting drinking coffee with a friend today and she randomly asked me if I like hats. I said yes, I do. She then said that she had been thinking that I should wear a hat when I go to visit her grandparents since they nor (evidently) no one in their village had ever seen a foreigner and they would be staring at me. I then assured her that I was used to people staring and would be ok.
