I find that the one hard thing about not having a car is that I have no time to dance and sing to music....I also find that when one forgets that you are on a bus and start to dance to the music people give you very funny looks....
It is currently rainy season in Nanjing...Interestingly enough it is like the city forgets about this season and fails to put in proper draining for the streets...so it looks like a river in the streets every time it rains...Today I luckily I didn't have to walk to far in the rain...and I had RAIN BOOTS...I don't know why I never invested in a pair of rain boots before...you can have some serious fun in the boots :) Puddles are no long the enemy they are your best friend :) I would however like to give a shout out to all the cars that decided the flooded lane was the correct lane to drive past me while I was waiting for the bus so I got to play dodge with the water that splashed up as the cars drove by :) Next they need to invent some rubber boots that are thigh high so I can really stay dry!!!
On another note our building is currently under construction creating a really fun environment to work and teach in....nothing like the sounds of things hitting the floor or a jack hammer to really mix up a class environment...However, since it has gotten worse...the powerful people of Shanghai have come to help make things better...over night a wall went up to make our floor a cleaner place from the construction....crazy how fast they can put things up...it is painted and dried overnight...it looks like it has been here forever....also with the construction going on when we leave at night we get a lovely view of the construction workers in their underwear preparing to go to sleep in some empty rooms of the mall...the walls are straight windows and I guess alot of them sleep here to make it easier....always an entertaining view to leave at night...
Other than that things are great in Nanjing :)
