sad day
rather depressing day… my BIKE GOT STOLEN! i was ready to go out to sanlitun and couldn’t find my bike anywhere. then i asked the guards and they said this never happens. eff that. of course, i’m kicking myself right now for buying that $1 lock. -__-
and so i’m inside, sulking kind of. on the bright side, i’m so grateful for my german roommate steffen, who cheers me up with food. (is there anything better??) last night was a fantastic homemade spaghetti aglio e olio with grape tomatoes, and today bread with goat cheese and honey. in comparison i feel like i can’t cook anything. seriously, i promised i would make something and now i’m blanking out on how i ever got on in the kitchen. i think he might be reading this, so if you are, thank you steffen!! germans are cool.
sigh. i’m now staring at the photo of my bike (which michelle and audrey had affectionately named jade, which they coincidentally arrived at separately) from four posts down and getting wistful again.
aww..i’m sorry to hear about your bike :( your place looks cool though + the food sounds yummy!! i must visit soon!

Crystal!! Soooo sad for you about your bike & phone. :( I’m glad you are blessed with someone to help cheer you up though, and with delicious homemade food! Hope the rest of this week goes fabulously to make up for today!!
