Chengdu trip Part 3: the Earthquake | may go wren
https://maygowren.wordpress.com/2010/10/08/chengdu-trip-part-3-the-earthquake
Laquo; Chengdu trip Part 2: Skipping Tickets and Taking Flight. Chengdu trip Part 3: I’m Your Weenus. Chengdu trip Part 3: the Earthquake. October 8, 2010. This is the school. It was getting dark and we had seen enough. Somewhat subdued, we piled into the cars as a mournful drizzle started up, ushering us out of the ghostly place. Exhausted from our long day (and for me the emotional stress of the earthquake), we were only too glad to leave, and much of the ride home was spent in silence. Just trying to ...

CantoDreaming: September 2013
http://cantodreaming.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Saturday, September 21, 2013. Jet lag, the heat and housing. I am not sure if it is the heat or if I still have jetlag but I am still tired much of the time. I am sleeping but I usually wake up a couple hours earlier than desirable. It is annoying but I know that it will pass. Today was checkout day at my airbnb place. And it was moving day. Perfect timing. I feel incredibly lucky to have gotten this far. Now I can focus more on my classes. Monday, September 9, 2013. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). HK Movie ...

Monday, March 02, 2009. The Tiger Killer v. The Golden Lotus, Part 3: Li Han-Hsiang. The story of Wu Song the "Tiger Killer"; and Pan Jinlian the "Golden Lotus" (because of her tiny feet), has been told and retold, again and again. Especially by director Li Han-Hsiang, who has obsessively directed no less than four films about the subject. Also see: Part One. Hu Chin with Yeung Kwan on top, from The Golden Lotus. He then took off [Pan Jinlian]'s embroidered shoes, unwound her foot bindings, and amused hi...

Sunday, October 26, 2014. From the land of Umbrellas. Meanwhile I have been reading (special thanks to Webs of Significance. Admiralty is definitely occupied. If you asked me if you could buy a tent in Hong Kong a month ago I would have probably said "I doubt it." Holy cow, there are a ton of tents on the streets, who knew? Sunday, October 5, 2014.

CantoDreaming: September 2010
http://cantodreaming.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, September 28, 2010. A West Village Institution. The corner of MacDougal St. and West 3rd, heart of the Village in Manhattan. It has always been one of those reassuring landmarks for me. I don't know how long that mural has been there, but it has to be at least 30 years. Has anyone been there? Sometimes people come to NYC as tourists and see more than some of us locals (or in my case long-term transplant) do. Saturday, September 25, 2010. Renn Faire and the Battle of the Sexes.

CantoDreaming: January 2011
http://cantodreaming.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 30, 2011. Cheung Chau- part 2. Just off the boat, we started exploring the shops. My friends did a lot of shopping mainly for food items that they wanted to bring back to the US with them but we also took pictures of the items for sale. More to come at a later date . the pictures take forever and a day to load so I am only doing a few at a time. Thursday, January 27, 2011. I did like the character Lisabeth, I found her refreshingly different, she is a highly functional dysfunctional woman...

CantoDreaming: Chinese New Year and rambling
http://cantodreaming.blogspot.com/2014/01/chinese-new-year-and-rambling.html
Monday, January 27, 2014. Chinese New Year and rambling. Chinese New Year is so important a holiday that even though my semester started a week ago today, I have only 3 days of classes this week then I am off on holiday until February 10th. From a strictly educational perspective this is a bit weird because momentum hasn't even built up yet and we're on break but from a cultural experience it makes perfect sense. Chinese New Year is IT in Hong Kong. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). A Hero Never Dies.
