A treacherous trip to the vaccinations clinic turns out to be not so bad...

---

So! As it turns out I don't need vaccinations for Japanese enciphilitis or rabies...which means other than the second round of Hep A and typhoid vaccs, I only need anti-malarial pills. That's great news to me. I'll take anything over needles! Well...that was a lie. haha.
I actually wouldn't need anti-malarial vaccs if I wasn't planning on going to Vietnam and Thailand during my trip. But my itinerary is so flexible, and I honestly don't know where I'll end up. I do know I'm going to Lhasa, Tibet through an exursion the Chengdu university offers...
Anyway, I decided on the pills, since I know I'll end up somewhere in southeast Asia. It's been on my bucket-list since I was seven, after all.

Oh yeah! This Thursday will be a big day for me...exactly 2 months before my flight!!

hey! I hope you have an awesome time in China. It looks like you're staying in Asia for a while so you'll be able to experience everything it has to offer. I just went to China for a month this summer and I had an amazing time. I'm hoping to go back and see Tibet so I'll definately be looking out for your blog about Lhasa. Have a great trip!

Out of curiousity what purpose are you visiting Asia for? Is it business or pleasure? I am looking forward to when you get your blog started. I bloody love Asia especially the Oriental nations.

hello there!
I'm actually going to continue my Chinese language studies (and possibly supplement my Japanese)...I think it's best I have some experience under my belt for when I graduate in anthropology. And of course, I plan on going back! ;)

hey Johnny!
Well, thanks so much! I'm REALLY looking forward to it, and I'll be leaving in 6 weeks this Tuesday! Yes, I will definately be going to Lhasa. I'm also planning (if everything turns out) on visiting Japan so I can utilize my Japanese. And hopefully I'll be able to go to Vietnam...Thailand...ugh the list is too long! So where in China have you been?
