Episode Details

She cries, and then she dies! How was that TV show (去有风的地方). Apparently it gets better from there.

How was Chinese class? Is Chinese grammar easy? Sure… if you can read the sentence and understand the meaning.

Workout in! Accessory leg day, then a run up the 3rd ring road to meet for coffee with a friend and former colleague. Bike ride back.

And sold some books! Thanks Mom! Next, China.
