This is so very Random! This picture was taken in China!!! It is a picture of the room that me and my wonderful roomie (Kami, who is incidentally my Best Friend) shared for 4 whole months. Looks like a hotel room huh??? I can still remember ploping my butt down on the bed, only to find out that they gave us box springs to sleep on for 4 months. We would have to change positions every 15 mins though out the night, b/c whatever body part you were sleeping on would fall asleep!
This is a very clean day. I realized a lot about myself while sharing a room with Kami. We had a freaking blast! Sometimes I daydream about my times there in China, and all the fun I had.
For the sake of memories I am including more pictures. I am sure that the rest of the blog world won't care about them. But I know my China girls will love them!
This is me and kami at our noodle place down the street. We frequented it DAILY!!! It was cheap, and GOOD! Look at myself....obviously I eat a little TOO many noodles over there! I can't believe myself...I gained 12 pounds in 4 months!! Goodness!
These were everywhere! I was never brave enough to try one
Hey Jen and Mar...do you remember this? Remember the night before we left your tub got clogged....and Kami decided to fix it (she is amazing that way). Then ALL THAT HAIR came out. AND it wasn't even your hair color, so that means that someone before us put it in there. AND Kami even touched it!!!!! GROSS, I am gagging just looking at that picture. Remember how it would take all day for the tub to drain after showering (or maybe that was our tub, I can't remember)??? AND the water came out looking like pee, and smelled funny? Oh good times!
the DVD lady that got her life saving from ILP teachers...but mostly Josh and Clay!
Remember our local bus stop down the street, and it's beautiful pond??? So many hours waiting for bus 40 to come and pick us up! Then so many hours riding into town! Remember how lucky your felt when there were empty seats, and you could sit the whole way? Remember riding to the RT mart?
Are my china girls smiling???? I am!

Oh the things you will eat in a foreign country! Gotta love the noodles!
The blogoshpere does like looking at random china pictures! It sounds like it was lots of fun!
Am I smiling? I'm grinning from ear to ear! LOVE EM! Okay, I think we should like post every China picture on our blogs since it was so freakin' awesome! Why don't you put a picture up of the naked Iranian man you slept next to in the hostel?
Jami that made my night! I love thinking about our time in China! When I look at those pictures sometimes the smells from there come back and I can't believe how gross it was! I sure loved it though and wouldn't trade my experiences for the world! Thanks for the pictures!
Kami
YOU JUST MADE MY WHOLE NIGHT and yes, I was laughing by the end. ahhh. I really really miss those days. see, one more reason we need to write our book! Yes, thanks for making my day Jam, love you!
My husband loves traveling and Asia is his fave! Those pictures look vaguely familiar! Haha the scary lack of hygiene, the crazy raw seafood, and the cheapo DVD's! I can't wait til he takes me out with him again. So interesting!
oh all the good times that were had. and sometimes, i totally crave those noodles. and for a quarter!
JAMI!!!! AHH!!! I know where all these pictures were taken! I miss the noodle place! I miss everything there. The super sweet beds, the clogged drains, the brown water! ;) That place was a blast. Too bad I went a completely different year.
so many similarities... I love China. Such a fun place, and you see things that yo will never see anywhere else in the world! I think everyone should visit there for a while. I felt like Alice in Wonderland when I was there. No lie.
Looks like you had fun. What an adventure! I'm jealous. Those noodles look dang good too. And that hair picture is nast!!
I know I'm a little late reading this post, but I LOVED it!!! Those were good time :o) Thanks Jami!
