I haven't done much in Beijing just because I am working on normal sleeping and eating schedules and I've already done all the touristy things here....except Olympic park, which I did visit. While it was awesome to finally see the Bird's Nest and the super awesome Bubble, Olympic park was kinda boring and 北京欢迎你 was blasted....A LOT! At first it was like aww....I remember this song, but after the like 18th billionth time, I was like...new song...please? Either way, I'm glad I finally got to see the two super awesome stadiums.
Also, I tend to forget how much walking I do in Asia. I feel like all I do is walk, eat, and shop when I come back. I'm sure by the end of the semester, I'm going to be abnormally poochy, but have amazing calves. hahaa. I took the subway (which isn't too bad. Not the best, but definitely not the worst.) to 三里屯 (sanlitun) which is this ridiculous shopping area. It also houses the biggest Apple store I've ever seen. Soooo ridiculous, I love it.
Well, it's eating time, so I'm going to run and grab some yummy Chinese food. Tomorrow I'll be in Nanjing! Yay! Until then!
