The travels of Justin

This set of Chinese Nike advertisements were made for the 2008 Beijing Olympics and require no language to be understood.

I live in a building that is a cross between a dormitory and an apartment. In 2007 I kept my food in my room for safety until I found a mouse in my room. Then I kept most of my things in cupboards in the shared kitchen. At least 30 people have access to the [...]

I’m afraid that my food will be stolen. My new neighbour is rude and loud… probably a thief too. A mouse is now living in the wall beside my bed. 哎呀！ This is the second time I’ve had this kind of neighbour since I moved to the International House in Halifax. 我有点儿害怕我食物被偷。我新邻居很无礼，很响亮。。。想他也是小偷。一个老鼠现住在床边的墙里。哎呀！从我搬家到哈利法克斯的International House公寓，这是第二次我有这样的邻居。 Update: The [...]

朋友们，祝大家中秋节快乐！ 我最近搬家到了加拿大哈利法克斯，在圣玛丽大学学习商业。在加拿大换大学换得不难，但是不太容易。比如我以前在温哥华是电脑老师。圣大商业学生都学习程电脑课，内容是Access, Word, Excel,等等。我觉得太容易的课。老师说：我必须参加程电脑课，所以没办法。 我星期一，星期二晚上有上课，不可以吃中秋节的特别的菜。我真想在天津我和朋友们2004年一起包饺子，吃饭，喝白酒。这次晚上有数学课。我以后安排教哥哥的小孩儿怎么包。觉得他们太小，但是可以好玩儿。在加拿大可不可以买中国的白酒？我不知道。我从中国只拿一瓶山西的白酒。如果在哈利法克斯要真的中国食品，可以买。我已经买了饺子皮儿，花椒，等等。两次我自己做葱油饼，但是做得不好啊！我不熟练。做炒面比葱油饼更容易，所以常常做。 你中秋节在你家乡吃什么菜？ Happy Mid Autumn Festival everyone!

I arrived home from dinner yesterday to find no water in my house. The pipes are totally silent when the sink is turned on. I haven’t seen a single drop of water in about 24-hours. It’s really normal for the water pressure to be non-existent for long periods of time. I have slowly learned that [...]

Why can’t I stop thinking about this tonight?
