Just a Little Bit

Chinese restaurant

My vegetarian food didn’t even comply with the Chinese definition as I could spot the meat easily. The waitress said it’s just “a little bit” but they finally cooked the dish again.

Mifan. I could eat tons. And I begin to understand why Chinese like it that much.

How to Become a Movie Star

Hi,

I think I forget something. Some of my friends are major in director (making films) and they need a foreign actor.I think you are the best for the role!Are you willing to come and help them with the short film?

 

A: One day a foreigner received a postcard from his friend and told him to find some treasure in the old cinemas

So he visited these cinemas and know many different stories but didn’t find any treasure, finally he found the really treasure was this trip

B: but you don’t tell me that I am that foreigner, right?

I just play someone who says “hello” or something and that’s it

A: of cours ure the foreigner

B: aaaaaah

but I am a very, very, very bad actor

A: They’ll tell you how to act, take it easy

[…]

A: actually it will be on the TV

B: whaaaat?

Getting My Hair Cut

With a picture of me after I had gotten my hair cut in Germany, I finally went to the barber’s. Usually it only takes about ten to fifteen minutes but this time I spent almost an hour there. For 38 Yuan (about 3,60 Euro) I got my hair washed, a head massage and a haircut.

Barbers

Then the barber (r.) wanted the washing guy to take a picture of him and me and I took one of them.

I got the hair wash and the massage on the front chair on the left but had to go to the back to wash out the shampoo.

The lights were already turned off when I left around midnight but when they realized that I’m taking a picture they turned them on again:

Many people take their birds for a walk and hang them in the trees. Good for the sound, not so good for the birds, I assume. But if they’re always in the small cages then the new environment might be a welcome change.

Sunday morning, Heping Park Notice the old man at the beginning. He’s pushing his wheelchair. Seems to be some kind of hobby amongst older people. I see one or two of them per week.
