Hello all,
Since arriving at Nandaihe, I have picked up some cool new British lingo that I hope to regularly utilize:
- Ice lolly: perhaps my favorite word ever--it means popsicle.
- Bint: bitch, but to a lesser degree (maybe it's a combination of bitch and cunt?)
- Twat: idiot.
- Dodgy: sketch, creepy.
All I eat these days is peanut butter (combined with either bread, bananas, jelly, or animal crackers depending on how creative I feel), ramen, ice cream, and beer. We are going to a Brazilian steakhouse that has all you can eat steak and beer for $6! Amaaazing. Other than that, I've just been doing the work-sleep-play-sleep routine day after day. I am also teaching the Chinese students some very useful slang: party pooper, awkward (turtle), privates, etc etc. Did you know that in addition to awkward turtle, there's the awkward turkey and the awkward moose? Check this out: http://www.awkwardmoose.net/

Hey Willa,
ReplyDelete"Bint" means "girl" in Arabic...maybe it's like a Indians-being-racist-against-Arabs thing...you know like a Pakistan-Kashmir-India thing???
Love, Mary Katherine

Cool Post, short and 100% entertaining. Where in china is Nandaihe?? never heard of such place. U know those awkward animals would be useful and will populate FAST b/c some of the chinese boys and girls are just ... awkward. they aint smooth operaters like my anonymous self right here.
ReplyDeleteI said that sarcastically, but now i'm not sure if u know who this is... haha.
