This morning Tara and I went to Gulonguexiale hutong so I could finish up shopping for all of my friends and family. Which I did. Everyone who I like should expect gifts when I get home! And good ones too. . All the way from China. I also found a cross stitching store (I guess that's popular in China? who knew) and bought some cross stitching things. We ate lunch at a Western place called Passerby Cafe. They have a bunch of travel books everywhere, and I picked out the one for Berlin while Tara read the one for the Mediterranean. I love Lonely Planet travel guides, I hope to have a bunch of my own someday... escape to places that I have been and still want to go to. sigh......
Once we got back to the dorms I rested a while and then headed over to Yashow to finish up my shopping and buy a suitcase. I was a pretty good haggler today, though by the time I got to the suitcase I kind of gave up. I spent 300 quai on it, about $45. Which still isn't bad, but I probably could've gotten her down to 200. Oh well. I was tired!
After returning to the dorms Tara and I grabbed dinner and went to the DVD store. Now I'm watching To Live and getting ready to call it a night. Tomorrow is my last Monday here.... I can't really believe it.
