Things I will NOT miss from China:
- Mobs of Chinese people EVERYWHERE
- Yelling Asians (they’re not even angry, it’s just how they talk normally)
- People spitting everywhere (do Chinese people produce more spit then other races?)
- Children peeing & pooing on the street
- Forceful vendors chasing you to try to sell you things
- People having no respect for the concept of queuing
- Cars honking (so loud that I can hear it from the 46th floor of my apartment)
- The traffic (don’t even get me started, it’s a jungle here. I feel like I’m literally risking my life every time I cross a street)
- People smoking everywhere
- People playing loud music in public transportation without using headphones
- Dirty, DIRTY bathrooms that never come with tissue paper (the toilet’s basically a hole on the ground)
- Clothing/electronics/food/water of very questionable quality
- Never being able to see blue skies or the sun due to air pollution
- Having to use a converter for all my electronics
- Having to wait for water to heat up in my apartment (which takes around half an hour everytime)
- Vendors calling every customer 美女(pretty lady) or 帥哥 (handsome boy), it just ain’t special if EVERYONE is good-looking to them…
Things I WILL miss from China:
- FOOD (so cheap and accessible at all hours)
- Cheap transportation (lots of bus, trains, and taxis)
- Cheap youth hostels
- Cheap clothing and accessories (like cellphone covers)
- Relatively low living cost in general (for a foreigner)
- Relatively cheap & convenient every day services (like getting massages, ordering take-out, doing nails, dry cleaning expensive handbags/coats…etc)
- Lots of places to travel to (China is HUGE)
- Curious people wanting to chat with us (Since it’s pretty obvious that we’re foreigners, they always want to know where we’re from)
- The awesome view from our 46th floored apartment
- All the crazy adventures with le bf ):
Yea we did a lot of eating in China. Omnomnom all the way!
