Bao Zi's Make Great Hand Warmers

Kinmen is only cold when it's windy, and only windy when it's cold.

And its a "wet cold."

And there's no central heating, anywhere.

Its cold here.


So i lent my bike to a friend and walked back to the school tonite. As i past by 7/11 (God's Gift to Taiwan), i figured i buy myself a delicious little steamed bun. I ended up buying two of them: one now and one for later. i put one in each of my jacket pockets and headed out into the dark cold night.

I am now eating cold steamed buns in my room.

Turns out they make great hand warmers and i couldn't push my self to eat them while i was outside.

Tomorrow is the Kinmen Marathon. i dont know how many marathoners there are on Kinmen. I rarely see people jogging, even at the track. I told my friends i'ld run the 10k w/ them. I'm now contemplating the Half Marathon. I haven't trained for it but i figure: "Hey! I'm in Kinmen! Why Not?"

We'll see how i feel when i get to the fork in the road.

Also i'm changing my travel plans to be in Taipei for a full week. I'm excited.
