I had to travel quite a bit and did not get to write anything. I am sorry....i will try to make up for it.... Blogger.de flooo Copyright © 2010 flooo 2010-09-07T05:13:42Z https://dearshuaiguy.blogger.de/stories/1692005/ so I met this new yorker chef last weekend at a dinner with friends. a really nice guy, born chinese but could really say one complete sentences in Chinese. so far so good, as I love food i thought it was interesting to talk to him until he started to bug me a bit with his "new yorker" attitude. He started off by saying that "soccer" used to be so unpopular, but is becoming more and more known. I was a bit confused and asked him what he means; soccer has been around forever and has always been... Blogger.de flooo Copyright © 2010 flooo 2010-09-07T05:52:47Z https://dearshuaiguy.blogger.de/stories/1664934/ Dear Shuaiguy, The weather in Beijing is quite bad lately and everywhere people complain about the bad air. So ok, yes the air is an issue that needs to be improved, but the people who complain are the ones taking a taxi to get to the restaurant that's a 100m away. They don't seem to know that Beijing really unfolds its special charme when you get on your bicycle and explore the city. My favorite part of the day is to ride around with my bike at night time in Beijing When the traffic has... Blogger.de flooo Copyright © 2010 flooo 2010-07-15T11:50:43Z https://dearshuaiguy.blogger.de/stories/1655601/ dear Shuaiguy, I went to a Chinese wedding today and it was a fascinating morning. (yes, why do Beijing weddins have to start that early??) The good thing about any kind of event in China is that you never have to be too concerned about what to wear. Whatever you pick, there will always been at least one person who is dressed more casual than you (most of the time def. more than one) and there is always going to be someone dressed a lot more over the top than you. keeping this in mind always... Blogger.de flooo Copyright © 2010 flooo 2010-06-27T17:00:33Z https://dearshuaiguy.blogger.de/stories/1654522/ Dear Shuaiguy, I am becoming more and more Chinese with every day. Don't believe me? Here comes the list of undeniable proof: 1. I drink water at least lukewarm if not even hot, even if its 30 degrees outside 2. I can peel shrimps with my chopsticks 3. i add 'maybe" to the the answer to almost any question 4. i think a head scratching is the best remedy for headache 5. I tell taxi drivers how to get to a place and ask them if i should direct them how to get back 6. I think the best after... Blogger.de flooo Copyright © 2010 flooo 2010-06-25T05:32:02Z https://dearshuaiguy.blogger.de/stories/1653493/ Dear Shuaiguy, where do you hang out on the weekends I really wonder? I never see you or many other shuai guys around. Lately I like to go to 2 Kolegas, it is such a laid back relaxed place. A nice change to having to get all dolled up to go to nightclub and stand next to the petite girls in their glitter dresses... And my favourite Chinese band plays there quite often. They are called: Long shen dao, ever heard of them? Really cool reggae music combined with local content like guzhang or buddhism... Blogger.de flooo Copyright © 2010 flooo 2010-06-23T08:48:04Z https://dearshuaiguy.blogger.de/stories/1652461/ dear shuaiguy, although i have been living here for so many years, I actually still cannot cook anything Chinese. That is probably because no matter how hard I would try, the outcome would still be a lot less tasty than whatever I can find at the restaurant down the street. Nevertheless that is not really an excuse, is it. If someone would tell me he lived in Italy for 5 years and would not know how to make pizza I would think: how ignorant..... well, I sometimes kind of throw asian vegetables...
