I've seen some young girls working these kinds of shops, but I think she might be a little too young...
I don't have much to say for this blog...

A couple friends and I went to the Zoo market one day and I took some pictures. There's a trend right now in China for couples to wear matching t-shirts. The t-shirts say all kinds of things, some are cute, like the girl shirt says "Do you love me?" and the guy shirt says "I'll love you forever." Another popular one is the guy shirt says "I only make money" and the girl shirt says "I only spend money." It's pretty cheesy stuff, which of course we found very entertaining. My friend and I thought it would be funny to buy a pair, they cost less than 5 dollars for 2 t-shirts so we figured why not. I posted pictures of that, my shirt says "husband" and her's says "wife." We wore them that day and everyone got a kick out of it.

The day after going to the zoo market we went to the Summer Palace. I really enjoyed it, but nothing too exciting happened. This time the program rented motor boats for us to have fun on for a while, that was fun. Now that it's Spring there's

Her dad came up during this picture and it was kind of awkward but he laughed so it's all good
a lot of trees blossoming so it's really pretty.

This blog was more to post pictures, I don't have anything else to say! I will try and post my blog from Korea as soon as possible. We are headed out on our end of the semester 2 week trip tonight so I might have time to write on the train.

Peace!
