Today I bit the bullet and went off by myself to get my hair done. I was scared silly because of what one of the English teachers said happened when she went to get her hair done. She recited a perfect horror of getting the wrong color and then having to stay there 8 hours while the color was corrected. I was scared but I went in knowing how to say red and I pulled at my hair. She asked me if I wanted to get my hair cut and I shook my head no then she showed me the color book and I pointed to what I wanted. Depending on the light my hair looks like it just has a bit of red highlights or it looks fuchsia either and everything in between is cool with me. When I got back, I thought that Chuck would be here but he wasn’t and when I got in the apartment he hadn’t gotten back or called. Nate and I did lunch after talking with Janna on Skype and then we went to Vanguard. I wanted to get some sports drinks and snack foods plus there were some things that we needed at the house . We did that and then I paid for our bike parking with a 50 cent piece. The first time I’ve used coinage here in China. While we were in the store Chuck called and said that he had just gotten my text. He went to a SPA today and had just gotten out.
Since we were at Vanguard we just got the groceries and came home.

Today we went to Dunkin’ Donuts and got donuts and we went to a local print shop to get things printed for this week in class.
Then I had my tutoring with Yan Die (Diana) and Yang Huan. We walked all over Vanguard today and I learned lots of names and some
questions important ones like: ‘How much are the shoes?’ or ‘How much are the clothes? I got an education on the
oil situation; oil is you and I learned a few different types, peanut, sunflower & melon seeds, olive & sunflower, & soybean.
I learned how to say my favorite drink li zhi (pear juice) I have to
watch how I pronounce it because leeches’ are the same thing only the tone is different.
