I moved to China for 4 months in an attempt to improve my Mandarin. What I did improve upon was eating. Eating the cheap street food. And boy, they were good. Cheap and delicious, what more could you ask for? I skyrocketed back to the 210s and when I came home for Christmas, my mom just shook her head in disappointment.
I did get a hair cut in China for 7 US dollars. It was awesome.
I wanted to look good for graduation, especially since my parents were going to be there taking pictures, pictures that were going to be framed. Forever. I started my no alcohol, no cigarettes pledge from March to June and lost 30 pounds. Back to the 180s. AGAIN.
This picture was taken on my birthday, July 2, 2008, a few weeks after graduation.
