uurrghhh... it's way too early for me to be up, but once again i seem to be in the middle of a warzone, with a major battle going on. I don't know if this is some kind of "fifth-day-of-the-new-year-so-let's-blow-the-town-up" -thing, but there's an old man setting off huge bombs (the 5 kg of TNT variety) just outside my bedroom window, and about 30 other people all around the building with all kinds of firecrackers and explosives. Good morning, China...
