Thanksgiving w/ D22 'family' ...i gotta say china is my first for many things, and amongst them are these: my 1st thanksgiving out of the country... 1st one w/out a b/f (i think...)... most definitely, first one with members of a bar... very amusing, but it was a great experience.... Rambles of a moment I'm a firm believer that everything in life happens for a reason: my friends leaving to travel, me staying behind b/c of the HSK... Long story short, everything has been a constant chain reaction here... not too fast where i can't catch my breath and find myself fainted on the floor sprawled out like a cabare singer that's been shot...(u know the infamous pose...if u dont oh well) ... but also not slow enough where I find myself dulled to the point of constant 'BBC - Boring Beijing Complaints'. Praising the Opposite Sex... Not surprisingly, a lot of the facination and excitment revolves around the 'indecisive confused sex (males)'...(not a man hater of course, just stating the obvious) and the sprewing Beijing nightlife which I have barely tasted, actually, I barely had the chance to even sniff this Pandora Box of wine let alone sip or taste it. Yet, from what I have learned and observed, it's another city of men and women whose beliefs may be entirely superficial or materialistic .... or on some great chance one may encounter someone who encompasses all that, but more, it's like finding the hidden door in the Lion, The Witch and the Waredrobe.... full of fascinating ideas, creativity, dreams and amibitions. Not just flabber full of politics, money, so where are you from, can I get in your pants, who do you know, you should meet so and so kind of mumble jumble. Of course this is a great way to network, but obviously, I'm not in the networking mood currently or else I wouldn't be bashing it. Seeing the Chaoyang and Sanlitun people just reminds me of how fake people are, espeically the guys! It's VERY amusing, personally, to Walk by a couple and have the man STARE at me while his girl is clinging to his arm. Or, some guy in a nice car just staring at you walk by, I mean can you BE MORE OBVIOUS???? Yah, looks are very complimenting, but I can only take so much when knowing that these looks are all about sex, baby can I touch you, get to know you...but just physically. It's very deterring. Just reminds me of how pathetic guys are sometimes. WOMEN....need I say more? all I can say is that the views from women are more harsh, scrutinizing, and glassy than men. This is a terriorty I don't think I could step into. They all seem like party acquiantences, no one that one can actually befriend and call a true friend. But that's ok.... I'm in a very gloomy mood obviously... Back to D22...
