Come To My Window

• After rolling out of bed and heading over to the cafeteria for lunch with Emily, I returned to find that I was locked out of the apartment. I had my key! But if you lock the apartment from the inside and leave the key in when you leave then you won't be able to fit your key in from the outside...oops. I figured the only way in was through the window but after attempting to unlock the latch myself I decided to just call maintenance. Guess how they got in?

• Today also marked my first adventure of driving in China. Korey, one of the other house spouses, let me borrow one of his tuk tuks (yes, he owns 3) to go to the store. No previous experience necessary needed to take one of these electric 3-wheelers out on the road.  I got a quick introduction (throttle on the handle, brakes with the foot pedal, and a switch from slow to fast mode) and then I was off on my way to get even more weird looks from the locals.
