OHMYGODIMGOINGTOCHINANEXTWEEK!!!
So I've been a little obsessed.
Virtual China is a pretty good blog on virtual and environmental trends in China.
China is to restrict death sentencing, the government said yesterday after a series of high-profile miscarriages of justice.
The court in Linyi, Shandong province overturned an earlier ruling against Chen Guangcheng, who was sentenced to more four years in prison after a trial marred by the detention of his lawyers, restrictions on journalists and the house arrest of his wife.
Microsoft considers pulling out of China.
China official denies Chinese censorship.
I wonder if I'll be able to log onto Livejournal from an Internet cafe. (Probably not after this entry is published.) I got my shots on Monday, and man, they friggin hurt. The nurse also gave me a list of food I'm not supposed to eat, and the very first thing was: DO NOT EAT from the street vendors. Which totally had me going, but...but...Anthony Bourdain says you should! We're on tour, though, so I doubt we're getting any street food until we're in my parents' village. Also, she told me when going to the Great Wall, I should bring some tissues or something because there's no toilet paper there. Definitely noted for future reference.
