potato_headYeah still not over the jet lag really. I just almost woke up an hour ago (would have been 6 AM). Getting up now for breakfast and waiting for Ying to get ready. Her friend slept over and is cute, has Harry Potter glasses 8D
Last night though as I was trying to fall asleep I had a series of intense sleep paralysis episodes, like I haven't had in a long time, full-on visual hallucinations and all. They were hallucinations of the girls (Ying and her friend) being possessed? Or just being demons taking their shape or something? And coming at me. I had a bunch in a row because I would try to rouse myself and then would fall back asleep in the same position and it would happen again. Adlsjhgadsjkdsj. By the time I woke up I was convinced it was really happening X.x
It's because of all the coke I've been drinking, I think. It's really, really tasty here. Less carbonation. But still caffeinated, I have to remember that. I recently found that they have Fanta here, and also Pepsi's answer to Fanta which is EVEN TASTIER. I still pronounce Fanta like they do in Germany (FAHnta) because FEHnta sounds stupid to me.
I am wary of buying Sprite. I did once but I didn't get regular Sprite, it tasted like litchi fruit? Which wasn't like, gross, it was just really strong for me. Which is generally how I feel about litchi fruit. I am pretty sure the regular Sprite they have at places that sell Coke is the original flavor, because the one I bought was a kind of off-color bottle, like you would expect from a throwback drink at home, but I am still wary of buying it, will probably stick to Fanta and uh...whatever the Pepsi one is called. I think the whole bottle was in Chinese except the pepsi logo. Somebody find out for me?
I am getting really used to this bed. Maybe I need an extra-extra-extra firm mattress at home.
IDK what we are doing today since Professor Wu didn't confirm with any of the people we're interviewing so that may or may not be happening. This afternoon we're supposed to go to the Forbidden City and a shopping area. I'm more excited to go out to the night market tonight. Still need a sun umbrella. I want a reflective one with cute things on it, saw one the other night and was going to buy it on the way back, but Prof. Wu had us fucking walk to the train station the long way instead and by the time we were coming back it was 11 and they were all closing.
