ytd some bus burned up pretty close to where we were and 25 people died. the bus driver jumped and left the door locked. i have choice words for him but will not use them in this roughly pg13 space.

as much as sichuan is gorgeous (and have Seriously Spicy Food), you can still see very visible effects from the earthquake last year. we toured a few of the affected areas, and its pretty... eery. blocks and blocks of houses are left empty because the buildings are still unsafe and rows and rows of tents/ makeshift buildings house thousands of people. as much as it is, however, you realise that the spirit of the people here are really what brings them over and beyond (transcend!) the disaster. all those happy smiley hopeful faces you see on tv are not entirely all propaganda. along the streets you see victims of the earthquake playing poker, or squatted in a circle around one tiny tv. there are roadshows, shoppers and i even spotted a short fireworks sequence. its... rather encouraging, to say the least
