Fatal Rose Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 I know people form Asia post here and can give some insight to what life is like here, from me though you can get a perspective from a westerner that's never traveled outside of his country until recently. Life here is awesome, still can't believe I am here. Some quick facts: Public restroom's here are awful and dirty. Everything is squat style. I hate it. Some parts are really dirty, people here have no problem with throwing trash out on the street. The people here are super nice and helpful. The people in my city are REALLY shy. They instantly think you're interesting when you're foreign. Girls instantly want you when you're foreign. Everything here is cheap, easy to save money. Not many elevator's. My apartment is seven stories up... I have to hang dry my clothes. This chick is currently annoying the hell out of me on QQ. Everyone uses QQ here. Facebook is blocked in China. The food is amazing. The girls are HOT!!! I love my students and will be sad to have to say goodbye to them eventually. Chinese love to drink liquor. Butter does not exist here. Peanut butter does not exist here. Me and my friend are the only two non Chinese in this town. It's nice finally being on my own. The job is fun and easy. I can see myself living here permanently. Any questions?

Lucandrake Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Sounds peaceful, ever had a wild dog chase you? No butter? No peanut butter? Meh... those things aren't really that great anyways, how do you make eggs? Is the communism aspect of China as bad as the history books make it?

Fatal Rose Posted May 21, 2010 Author Share Posted May 21, 2010 How would you rate the local girls?Some of them are really beautiful/sexy, some look like little monsters. Sounds peaceful, ever had a wild dog chase you? No butter? No peanut butter? Meh... those things aren't really that great anyways, how do you make eggs? Is the communism aspect of China as bad as the history books make it?No dog has chased me, the dogs here don't do that.Same way you make eggs in the states.I am sure it was that bad a while back but not so bad right now. Does not directly affect me because I am American. A lot of the people here are brainwashed and don't know any better. They live under a dictatorship and are drilled since childhood to always support and believe in the government no matter what. If you ever question or say anything against the government your branded as un-supportive and looked down upon. It also may be a bit risky. Just ten years ago you would be arrested for saying something bad about the government. Many news outlets and websites are blocked by the Chinese government. How many Chinamen have you punted for a bowl of rice?None yet. Whats the yearly weather cycle like?The weather so far here is terrible. Nothing but rainy violent storms, cold, rarely is there a warm day. Anymore questions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
