Electric scooters + bicycles are extremely popular here. You can buy an electric scooter for $300 CAD, and it has a max speed of 45 km/h, which is pretty good. Fast enough to drive in the car lane, small enough to cut through cars.

This hotpot looked good, but tastes bad.

Fun to try, but not worth it.

Why pay extra money for food that you have to cook yourself? Imagine KBBQ in Toronto, but you have to pay for each tray of meat.

$2.50 CAD fish at Carrefour. Cheap pet huh?

Carrefour is pretty much similar to Wal-Mart. French supermarket chain, third biggest in the world, after Wal-Mart and Tesco.

Chinese toilets don’t have toilet paper, so you always have to bring a roll with you when you’re going to the washroom. Stocked up.

Birthday gift from a New Zealand friend. Sound great. Sorta look like Rokits.

Havianas swag. Roomate got me a pair from Brazil.

This old Chinese dude right here is like the campus hermit. He walks around campus all day collecting plastic water bottles out of garbage cans, off people, and anywhere else he can find them. Then I guess he goes and sells them to the recycling plants for a few cents each. Kinda handy since he’ll just take any empty bottles you have off you any time you run into him. Guess it gives him some purpose since he’s old and retired.

Had to get another fix of chicken.
