Grow vocabulary grow!
Today I learned how to form a complete sentence that's not "I don't speak Chinese"! I can now state "I want baozi" as opposed to simply declaring "baozi". This makes me feel much better. Still better, I can actually say "I want 3 baozi". This knowledge will come in handy, because today Xiaofeng showed me a little shop that sells nothing but baozi and soymilk. Tomorrow morning before work I will go and test my skills!
My head cold persists. This morning it seemed to have migrated to my sinuses, but I took some decongestants and they have since cleared out, which was immensely relieving.
I also went to the grocery store this morning and had great success. I now have oatmeal, bread, peanut butter, jam, and some cup noodles, so if I get hungry I don't have to go out.
Before any of that though, I fired up Skype and Warcraft 3 and tested both by playing a game of DotA while chatting with Ben (Canada Ben of course). Both worked wonderfully, so if anyone is up for chatting on skype I'm bjokuty, and if you want to play DotA just sent me a message if I'm online. I may not be able to, since I'll usually be online in the mornings before work, but it's worth a try.
Sleep soon. Will post pictures tomorrow even if they are just of the apartment and office. Promise!

So what is baozi anyway?
Veggie baozi or meat baozi? Yummmmmmmm either way! Go Ben! Glad to know you're finding your away around... hopefully that cold will go away as your body adjusts to the air and water.
