| | So this morning my mom saw her best friend from her youth who see hadn't seen in 26 years. They had fun talking and laughing it up. Then my mom and I went across the street to get our hair done. My mom wanted the same hair cut as one of the guys who worked there. It took a long time to translate what I wanted. I wanted blue streaks but apparentally, there is no blue in China. Only red. Doesn't surprise me. So red streaks, ok. But I need the rest of the hair dyed black since I had black, brown, and green. Then I had to get them to know I wanted streaks, not something that will blend. And then the cut, I didn't want bangs or waves or the back cut up short. And then I found I pic of a girl with long black hair with hot red highlights. That made things alot easier. So after I got shampooed I walked out to find my uncle yelling at the people and making a scene. I was so embarassed and I had no clue what he was saying. He thought they were ripping me off since I was American. So finally we settled on knocking off 100 yuen...roughly $12.50. lol. At all times, there were 5 guys around me (all the stylists were guys and all the girls were massagers) Man, they had a ball examining my hair. They were feeling it and trying to figure out the green. They were so throuwn off by the brown roots, green bottom and then they found the two light brown streaks by my ears. But mainly, everyone came to see the green. I felt like I was in a petting zoo. Even people who didn't work there came and watched. I guess seeing hair that isn't straight up black is new for them.
Unlucky for me, I liked the bubble tea my uncle got for me. Unlucky because I had to go to the bathroom so bad but I was in the middle of coloring. An hour later I got it washed out and went to the bathroom and guess what I found, a hold in the floor. I had to, I had no choice. Ok, climbing the Great Wall, not to bad. Running track, bareable. Calc 2, shoot me now, but that type of toilet, hardest thing ever. I don't understand it. I do squats and lunges, but wtf was that?! At least it was clean.
Now that I've disgusted you all.... I saw Star Wars with my cousin and brother. It was really good, but unfortunately my cousin only thought it was so-so. That's because he's only seen one other one and had no clue what was going on in the story. Oh well.
Anyways, I put up more China pics and have a seperate album for Beijing and a few pics of my hair (which didn't come out like the pics, but does it ever? I'll never get what I want) But I still like it. Check out the pics.
