Mmm.. food is good

I absolutely love the food here. Duck, goose, rat, dog, squid, whatever it is.. you name it, I'll eat it. In fact I'll do you one better - don't even name it, you don't even need a picture of it. If it gets handed to me it is getting devored. My first day here I entered a nice resturant. It was very large and spread out and yet there were only 2 other groups inside besides me. If I wanted to go out with a girl on a romantic date I would have chosen this place. It seemed upscale, plenty of waitresses acting with very proper manners, decked out in attire to suit the emperors harem. How can you not love a girl that's seems fit for a harem? When I went in the door the hostess found a girl to speak english for me. She said there was no menu but instead they had a whole selection of meals in a fridge type thing I could chose from. There was an aquarium filled with exotic and delicious looking fish. I guess I'm a bad guy since I think something looks delicious while it's still alive. Like cows are so cute and delicious to me. The whole staff followed me around as I chose. Then I took a seat and it seemed like the staff was waiting for something to do. My food was served fairly fast. I got a ses food dish and something with duck. Loved both which was good because I was hungry. Then I took a seat in front of the TV and watched some vollyball while ordering a beer. You really can't go wrong watching vollyball. It's a pretty exciting sport that everyone understands because it's great recreation. Plus those girls teams, WOW! I got my beer which was way too much something like 40 ozs. for 3 dollars and I ended up sharing a little with some german guys. One said he was a sports psychologist for one of the teams. They also guessed what sport I was with, but let's be honest, anyone could tell wrestlers from a mile away. #1 couliflour ear #2 couliflour forhead #3 the rugged lean look #4 their swagger #5 a dominant male attitude. It's like a fight club where everyone knows who's a member. It was a great dinner and I don't think the waitress expected the tips I gave them.

My next meal was a fun experience. It was actually my only meal at all yesterday, but God was it big. I went across the street to this little resturant, I walk in and the lady who greets me tries to hand me bread. I try to explain I want to sit and eat so I just walk in and take a seat, Plop. They bring me a menu. Now all the writting is in chinese and if you're anything like me you look at it and feel like texan at school. (JK brandon slay) Yeah well I couldn't read a thing so I did the 'iny-meeny-miny-mo' trick and picked two meals and then they took me to the rice noodle section, which I realized was rice or noodles after my meal came. It seemed so cheep. 58 yaun about $8, but it was enough to feed me all day. I sat there and ate for an hour. I just relaxed and digested and drank more tea as it kept coming. The beauty of tea is that it is basically water. It has a few things in it but to get a substatial amount out of it you have to drink a lot. So I drank 2 or 3 teapots, I don't remember, so I could digest. This will actually turn out to be a significan't amount of caffine, about a cup or two of coffee. The chinese people in the shop didn't speak any english but somehow they must've recognized me and realized how famous I am in America because all the girls wanted to take pictures with me. I took pictures but I wasn't sure what to do. They both made the peace sign so I followed suit. A guy around their age who was in the back came out to take the pictures. There were two girls who were roughly my age, an older women - middle age, and a little kid, probably ten. They started looking at the pictures and one of the girls put her arm on the guys shoulder. He gave her this dirty look and I could tell it was a little joking like 'what are you doing?' then she pulled her arm off fast. I started laughing at this, because some language is unspoken. and then they looked back and started laughing at me. In saw the same girls again today near a hair salon. I was talking in english, too fast, which seems like fun to me especially when I know they don't understand. One of the girls who is very cute interrupted me and said "Ok thank you byebye now." and I turned towards the guy and said 'wait did I just get rejected, did she just reject me?' She jumped into the arms of the older woman and was laughing very hard as I was saying this with a body language that definitely showed a lot of disbelief and a little goodhearted outrage. But I'm getting better at this communicating thing which is lots of fun.
