various things

 Man chopping fresh noodles from a block of noodle dough.  

 My next door neighbor / fellow PiA-er, Lily, eating said noodles.  

 Me sneaking a candid shot in my Chinese class.  Back to the ol' 中文.  CFAU offers 4 Chinese classes everyday Mon-Fri (from 8:00-11:40 AM) which I can audit for a small fee.  I really like this convenient way to 'turn on' my Chinese in the morning and usually dip in on 1 or 2 classes.  Added cool points for the diversity in the class room: my classmates are from Kazakhstan, Ukraine, France, Italy, Botswana, Egypt, Tanzania, plus 1 other American.


Colorful kindergarten behind my dorm (not connected to CFAU lol)
  
 I got a 'blind massage' (a lot of blind people in Asia give massages professionally) for 13USD/hour!
