I wish I was a hand, so my occupation could be handing out slaps.

I just want to give a special shout outs to the construction team that was doing work in the hallway with a sledgehammer at 8am. Thank you. I appreciate waking up to a dream that special ops were trying to kick down my door. one love.

Later in the  day, Me and Toye got into it with the taxi driver. Me being the mean one had a verbal exchange with him despite either of us speaking each others language. so it went a bit like this

Driver –获得他妈的外国人!!!!!!!!

Me– wait..wait hold up, who do you think you’re talking too????

Driver – 你!!!!!! 狗外国人!!!!!!!

Me–how about I %#$#%%#$ you #%&@%#$@????

Driver–是什么呢????????????? 我吗??????????

Driver — 拧你,你的母亲,祖先,全家好吗!

Me– oh really?????? me???? *humping gesture* @%# I will $@%$@%#!!!!!!!

Driver– 狗!!!!!!!!

Me– *finger* a@@h@l@!!!!!!!!

Driver–你的母亲!!!!! *humping gesture*

Me– @#$# you!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Driver — *go away gesture*

Me– *snatches change from his hand*

Me and some lady got into a mad dogging mean mugging contest – That QD liquor got folks feeling immortal.

entry: 8/1/12

Both of our eyebrows were down. locked and focused. I then flipped it and put on a thizz face (google it) like I just took a bite out of a lemon. She got scared and put an extra gear in her step. + 1 Knox.

QD liquor got folks thinking they’re immortal. Got folks getting carried out the club by their limbs. Got folks splashing on the ground. Got folks spilling onto the streets. Got chicks dancing on poles. Got dudes taking home loosy goosyes. That QD liquor wild. haha

random thought: apparently if you microwave a boiled egg it explodes into a million pieces. who knew. *shrugs*

Don’t you hate when someones breath smells, you offer them some gum or mints and they decline. It’s like take the god damn mint god dammit! thats that shit I don’t like. Breath smelling like fish soup, tofu, and mushrooms, jesus, then want to be all up in my face breathing in my nostrils and shit. Pisses me off.

beer festival has began in qingdao. yea, we start young out here *shrugs*

Chinese woman v2.0

entry: 7/12/12

Helps with dishes and errands while the phone is attached to the ear THE WHOLE TIME. Its kind of impressive actually. see pic below.

on a different note:

You know why I don’t give chinese people eye contact anymore? because they seem to think that means I know mandarin.

Them: NI HAO MA, NI SHI NAI REN?
Me: MEIYOU

Earlier today I got a little visit. Good to know that when you’re cooking and the ‘silent’ smoke alarm goes off, it alerts the security team down stairs. That’s actually pretty cool. and I didn’t understand a lick of what he said except lunch and window. Pretty sure that’s all he understood when I told him the window and vent were both open. china, where single words can translate an entire sentence lol. ps.

I didn’t burn anything, I was frying something. 😡

I found a great picture of the block/building I stay in. I’m in the building to the right

candice multitasking.

I don’t speak chinese, doesn’t matter….I’m the charades master.

entry: July 4th, 2012

I’ve been living in china for 8 months playing it every day. I’m so good I can sign language ‘important’ and get people to understand. what!

Random thought: I need to put sand paper on my door because GO AWAY does not translate in mandarin.

Its fourth of july and I have this sudden urge to go decked out in red white and blue stars and stripe pants, shirt and shoes. lookin like uncle sam. make a whole lot of chinese mad. stomp around their turf wrapped in an american flag, like what’s going on guys? when yall gon’ vote, oh oops. LOL. happy 4th. Im kidding Im kidding, actually I dont give a shit.

Random thought II: Bet you can’t fall asleep butt naked on a bare mattress!!!!!!!….because study show 90% of humans can only fall sleep, with some type of cover. Its a subconscious way of feeling secure in your most vulnerable state.

Scandinavian men abroad are suspect tho.

Why did some big drunk swedish man, who can clearly see me in my chair, try to lift me out of it and dance with me despite just telling him I was partially paralyzed? Needless to say, it didn’t go so well. ALL those women and you’re trying to dance with ME???? and stop touching my face dude, in fact just don’t touch me. What is going on here??? I almost got molested, I feel violated. The hell with this, I’m going to start carrying a knife, these Scandinavians be getting too fruity. Actually, european men in general. Compliments are fine but the face touching, cheek kissing, and now trying to dance is just…no. stoppit. 😡

Chinese milk doesnt go bad???

entry: 5/28/12

Back in Qingdao, and um, Ive had this carton of milk in my frig for like a month. I opened it and it wasn’t bad, no smell, no lumps, nothing. Now I’m curious as to what is in my chinese milk. Surely that can’t be a good sign. o_O

You know you’re back in China when:  the left lane to make a left turn, rushes to turn ( per law like the rest of the world its yield lol) before oncoming traffic, cutting everyone off,  including buses, women and children. Just cut all of them off, who cares. and the third car that tries to beat the oncoming traffic squeezes in so tight he’s driving in between people crossing the street, dodging cars hahaha

this milk doesnt go bad. hmmm

My first weekend in Seoul

entry: 5/26/12

Big ups the korean mama-san and the itaewon pimp that kept buying me rum and cokes despite being extreme light weights and stumbling about breaking damn near every glass in  the pool hall. Im from china trick, we heavyweights. Korea aint got nothing on what we do in Qingdao. I felt kinda bad for them. lololol The koreans were very embarrassed toward their behavior, but to me, this was every day chinese behavior – seeing people unable to walk, spilling all over the side walks, an every day in good ol Qingdao. *shrugs*.

Im staying in a love motel, hilarious how they try to mask it, yea because I cant see the business guys over 40 with 20 year olds running around. OK. Anyways I got a chance to catch the Mayweather fight against Cotto, and then linked up with my boy Bernard and his gf. They took me to a nice restaurant where I got a chance to eat some steak. mmmm. Its been awhile.

Bernard and his gf

You can take the Chinese out of the third world, but you can’t take the third world out the Chinese.

I noticed that when I moved to Shibei, its alot different than other parts of town like CBD (central business district) or Chengyang (where many koreans live) or Badaguan (many rich chinese). Shibei is an old district where many people are adjusting to the new modernization of the city. You see interesting things in my complex because despite it being quite modern, you will occasionally see some interesting things; like clothes being hung, motorcycles being parked near the elevators (on my floor which is on the 11th lol), dog piss IN the elevator, garbage scattered around in various areas etc. But the cool thing about the building is there are no laws in terms of residential and commerce division. For example, there are 40 floors, and many people cook out of their apartments and deliver to various floors. Theres a barbershop, dentist, 24 hour market, whore houses and many other various commerce in my apartment complex. Its almost like the movie Judge Dredd. Its actually pretty cool to be honest, I never have to leave. Everything is here. But there are moments when the fighting, yelling, drunkards, cig smokers in the elevator get on my nerves. Pros and Cons I suppose. ha.

Just hang your clothes in the lobby area of my luxury apartment. No problems.
