Thursday at work I worked on a translation for a super-secret event I can't tell you about. I also can't attend it, which makes me sad, but I understand having to limit the number of people. I'll be able to tell you about it after it happen on Saturday. Had mushrooms in my box lunch. Yum!
I also went to Pizza Express, which is actually a nice pizza restaurant in XinTianDi. We met with the manager and discussed the possibility of having the kids come make pizzas there, which I guess it something they did last year. They didn't actually like the pizzas because they were so different from what they were accustomed to, but I guess they enjoyed making them.
Went to dinner with Damin, which was mediocre food but good conversation, defined by the fact that he said my listening ability has improved a lot. Not convinced personally, but great to get the encouragement.
Only other news is that I think I have the beginnings of a cold, and that one of my earbuds isn't working. Good thing there are 200 pairs of earbuds for sale near Fudan Strolling Street...

Oooo, a super secret event. I can't wait to hear about it. And YOU worked on the translation.
How exciting to hear that your listening ability has improved noticeably.
Sorry to hear about your cold. :-( And your ear buds. Hope you're soon feeling all better.
Get well soon, Ali!
Ali, I thought of you on the 4th of July. I guess that's not a holiday widely celebrated in China - they just make all the fireworks...
Hope your cold is of short duration. Not something you need to deal with when you're so busy making every minute in China count!
secrets, secrets are no fun.
i LOVE pizza express... that is, if it's the same chain they have in the UK
i am not the least bit curious about your secret
