Advent

day 23: 新乐 (xinle) = 0km

Today is December 1st.

Where I am from, Christmas is on the evening of December 24th.

Today is not Christmas.

—But for me it is—

I’m still chillin’ when 浩子 rings me up and says: “Where you at, we’re coming over!”

You guessed right, they’re coming to bring me back…

…my one…

…and only…

…priceless…

…beloved…

…my wide-angle lens!!!

But they didn’t stop there. They got me a sweets, too:

…a BUNCH of sweets. I can’t possibly carry all that stuff in my backpack, so I guess I’ll have to stay in for a day and do some massive candy devouring!!

I have learned:

1) I slowed down the pace, and walking is more fun now.

2) I am rich – rich in sweets, rich in friends, rich in beautiful things to see.

I’ll hang out today, on this December 1st, then leave town tomorrow.

The mountains are coming closer and closer.

Soundtrack: Lady Laistee – “Corda”

    Ananda_Gua: Living in sunny Kanton means being rich in sunlight and vitamin D – do you leave your room every once in a while?

    The thing with the time zone is because the server this site is on is in the states. By the way, does the site work alright for you? There are some errors, I know, but can you read the posts and look at the pictures alright?

    Rindy: I enjoy being able to share this with my friends! :)
