Adventures in China

1. Being treated like a valuable object. Being overprotected. Being shown off. Not being listened to and not having people interested in me as a person.
2. Being treated like I am incapable because I am a female.
3. Waiting for water, electricity, or a stable internet connection.
4. Air pollution
5. Complicated social rituals I don't understand, like rules against speaking openly or honestly.
6. Chinese liquor smell (bi jiu).
7. Being coerced into drinking Chinese liquor.
8. Chinese pop music.
9. The inability to convince people I prefer to eat vegetarian.
10. The lack of cloths that fit me (because I am "fat" enough to have curves).
11. Anything to do with Titanic (the movie) or "My Heart Will Go On".
12. The lack of thick paper or pens that work well.
