Well... - Talys - 06-23-2008
So, uh...I'm going to China for ten days with my band for a pre-Olympic festival...So yeah...I leave at four in the morning tomorrow...Adios.
Well... - Kazuya - 06-23-2008

Well... - Celena - 06-23-2008
That's awesome.
Well... - Dehan - 06-23-2008
I'd appreciate it if you bring me back a woman who looks like Misa Misa from Death Note. Thank you buhbye.
Well... - Talys - 06-24-2008
I'll see what I can do...
I've decided that my best bet is to just not sleep tonight...we have to call our group leaders at 3:30 am and I just had an eight shot espresso at work...I may die.
Well... - Talys - 06-24-2008
Alright...well, I'm leaving soon...ciao folks.
Well... - Tamsin - 06-24-2008
China is incredible. Have fun.
Well... - Kaden - 06-24-2008
That sounds sweet. Have fun.
Well... - Talys - 07-04-2008
Ok, I'm back...it was a great experience.
Well... - Celena - 07-04-2008
Did you bring Dehan back Misa Misa?
Well... - Talys - 07-04-2008
Nah, but I did see some pretty cool stuff...and I'm still confused as to Chinese traffic laws...or lack there of.
Well... - Talys - 07-16-2008
So decided to finally put pictures up.
Me, my brother, and our friend Emily on the plane. (I'm in back.)

Shot from the plane...we flew up to within 150 miles of the north pole and back down...this is close to Siberia.

We did a cultural exchange with the students of the English department of a college in Cheng-de...I'm not in this room, so don't look for me in back...it was right after a show, hence the half uniforms.

Portion of the wall we visited...the top goes way past where you can see...I made it up there though, felt great the next day. [/sarcasm]

At this point I start stealing photos from a different person, so order is messed up...not that there was one in the beginning.
Casey, Ben, and I at a Buddha temple...I look odd in this pic.

A little more homo-erotic, but still impressive.

Meh, good enough for now.
Well... - Kaden - 07-16-2008
That's awesome. Looks like a pretty awesome time.
Well... - Jack - 07-16-2008
whats up with those toilets? Those aren't modern models are they?
Well... - Talys - 07-16-2008
It's what their culture evolved into...there were some really high end Squat-a-pots and a lot of establishments had western style toilets...a bit alarming at first, but what happens happens.
Well... - Ashe - 07-16-2008
That looks awesome, I wish I was in whatever took you there.
(The toilets... Something brings the image of Asian people sitting cross legged or hovering over them while meditating and using them to catch their poo)

Yeah, they're totally modern. They are quite common in Asia and outside of the Americas. They're called Squat toliets.
edgeucate urself
Well... - Mr. Zhu - 07-16-2008
Lol.... He wiki'd that shit..
Love the pics, I would so want to go to China again >.>..
Well... - Talys - 09-02-2008
So, uh, I just wanted to remind everyone and myself what a great once in a life time experience this was...But I'm doing it again...? Apparently the Choir I auditioned for at my school and was accepted into it going to China in May...crazy...
Well... - Pinky - 09-02-2008
I hope that wasn't smog in those landscape pictures, but with the over-industrialized economy China is building it's hard to tell.
I also noticed the no-dugs symbol on that temple ban list. If you can't take opiates on sacred grounds anymore then this is not the China of yore that I've read about.
