Post-Holiday Post

After quite a long silence, here's a little virtual wave from Chongqing again. While I have been ignoring the blog, I have been out there in the real world (!!!) holidaying, job hunting and so on. I spent two weeks in Beijing, firstly just having a brilliant holiday and secondly scouting for job opportunities. And brought back some sort of bug as a souvenir, which very efficiently kept me in bed with a cold for about a week.

But here I am emerging from the haze and blurrr, waking up to realise that summer has hit us with fukll volume. The temperatures are climbing up to 40C and the skimpy shorts are out!

We've had no classes for a couple of days due to the university's Sports Meet, a school-wide track & field event. I'll come back tomorrow with stories and pictures of the wanna-be Olympics opening ceremony that I also had to participate in.

But today I will simply leave you with this: I have just come back from the neighbourhood supermarket, where I bought a bag of green-tea flavoured potato chips. Now there's Chinasation taken into new heights!
