It's been awhile...

It's been awhile since my last post.....life has been really really busy since I've came back....I guess life is a lot simpler in China. As we all know that I might be going back so maybe you'll see more blogs from me then.....

08-08-2008

Today was a memorable and exciting day for me! It's exactly 1 year (365 days) from the the 2008 Beijing Olympics! and I've decided to try something I would've never thought of doing!

I applied to be a volunteer at the 2008 Beijing Olympics! It would such an honor if I'm accepted! I'm really praying that I get this....and if I do get it, I will be taking a month of vacation time from work to participate in this amazing event! I never thought I would be this excited about it but I am.

I'm really proud of all the people who contributed in this world wide historical event. Although I was born in Taiwan, but our ancestors came from China so I consider myself Chinese-American. It's exciting to see how much hope, happiness, anxiousness the Olympics has brought among this country.

I think the reason why I'm so excited is because I actually might have a chance to be apart of something special!! Anyways, I'll keep you guys updated on this to see if I make it or not.... Please pray for me that I get it!!! if not, I won't feel upset because someone else will get the chance to and maybe I'll just have to wait another 4 years.

Here is a logo for the 2008 Beijing Olympics and it's volunteers!! They are the foundation of this awesome event! (there will be some 200,000 volunteers at this event!)

Fat Food In China....

Last time when I posted about American fast food was a while ago, but I was just excited to see one all the way out here.

The other day I actually went to one and tried it. It turns out to be pretty much the same....but it's cool to have something for a change that actually reminds me of what "Fat Foods" tastes like.

Spicy Chicken Sandwich.

Popcorn Chicken.

I've also tried McDonald's , and I was actually surprised that they made it taste exactly like how it would in the US.

Can't forget my McNuggets!

I hate blogs soooo much....

Sorry....I know I was suppose to post some more but I've been really busy lately like right now....so I'm going to go back to work but I will try to post more once I get a chance......GOSH I HATE BLOGS!!!!! FREAKING IDIOT!

Green Tea.....

This blog is dedicated to Aaron....

Green Tea has always been a all time drink for me and Aaron. It's healthy, taste great, and extremely refreshing when it's hot. From the 99 cents Arizona Green Tea to the $2.50 Chinese Green Tea, it has became a part of our life....it's a must ....

Since green tea is dirt cheap here in China, I've stocked up lots of green teas.



Since it's really hot here, I drink about 3 Litters of green tea a day which like 2 of those big bottles in the picture.

I hate blogs....

Since I have've been really busy at work....haven't blog in like a month.....I'll try to post a few today to update what's happened in the past few weeks......gosh I hate blogs.....

Traffic...

Have you ever gotten stuck in traffic on the freeway because bunch of people stopping/slowing down to see an accident? Well....here in China....it's 10 times worst. When something happens on the street, people immediately form a circle around it. When other sees this, they actually RUN towards it to see what happened. What's even worst is if this happened on a freeway or big streets, people actually stop in the middle of the road just to get off the car to look at what happened.

This happened a few weeks ago. I was on my way home from work and saw bunch of people just standing on the street. Police and rescue team from the fire department are all over the place.



A car was SMASHED by a big truck that tipped over.



Here is a pic of all the inconsiderate people that parked their car right in the middle of the street just to get off to "look".

Inconsiderate crowds are standing so close to the scene even inside of the police line. They don't even consider their action might get in the way of the rescue.



After the driver was rescued from the smashed car, it took two big cranes to flip the tipped over truck back on it's wheels.

Whats left of the car.......

The driver was lucky to be alive.....
