o19; distraction
Less than 24 hours now. I should be in bed as I am very tired but I just keep thinking. He texted me earlier...

Him: Less than a day, Yuna! <3
Me: I can't wait to see you. <3
Him: Less than 3. ;P

The... 'less than 3' thing is in a reference to the little "<3". If you take it apart, it's the 'less than' sign (<) and then 3, and he said to me once, "I less than 3 you" and it just... stuck. ^^;;

Anyway, I wanted to distract myself by showing you all pictures of China. My newest friends have expressed interest in seeing China, so here we go! Some of these are from 2007, some are from 2005, some were taken by me, others by my classmates who also attended the trip.


The view outside my window every day in Shanghai when I lived on ECNU campus.




The entrance to the dormatory.


The entrance to ECNU itself. When you enter the university, it's like leaving downtown Shanghai's chaos and coming into a peaceful garden... outside of class, of course. XP


The group that does Tai Chi every day in the park by ECNU. Me and Rikku practise with them. They're hardcore, and we wish we were that cool, haha.


...so, my entire class decided they wanted to see how many of them could fit in a Chinese phone booth. See the blue flag? That would be the university I just graduated from. Hoo-boy, rofl!


You think that is a lot he's carrying on his bike, yes? Would you believe I've seen much, much bigger? Maybe three times that size?


Typical Chinese street scene. This is outside the back gate of ECNU.


This picture was taken in the early morning. Generally there are many, many more bikes and cars on the road, and yes, they ride together and yes, they cut each other off. Shanghai traffic is insane.


And finally, yours truly overlooking the main grounds of Jing'an Temple. See the skyscrapers in the background? This temple is directly in the middle of the city.

Okay. I'm going to go to bed. Hopefully my nerves will have calmed and I'll actually get sleep. Take care, everyone!
