limp limp limp

bruise on the top of my head.
bruise on the back of my head.
bruise on my chin.
bruises on my fingers.
bruises on my elbows.
bruises on my knees.
bruise on my tailbone.
bruises up and down my arm.

interesting night to say the least.

started off with me meeting a new friend from chicago for dinner. we ended up going to some chinese restaurant that seemed popular for salad (wtf, salad?). while we were eating a creepy guy with acne face and snot hanging from his nose came to talk to us in english. found out we were from us and canada respectively then began to talk about music he liked. said his favourite band was nirvana and asked my friend, who's black, if he liked nirvana. my friend replied that it was 'a little too white for him.' creepy guy obviously didn't understand. after he left us alone for a bit, he came back and SAT at our goddamn table. of course we were eating, not looking at him, and pretending to ignore him but he pursued. asked my friend if he liked hiphop and rap, and then said his favourite rap artist was MC Hammer. obviously by then i was laughing like a schoolgirl. well to get him to go away, we quickly paid the bill and were saved by the waitress who brought his food to another table.

after that we walked back to our area and killed time as propaganda opened. propaganda is primarily a club that plays hiphop music. the catch is, on wednesdays it's 50kuai (7 canadian) all-you-can-drink. bad news.

after drinking probably the equivalent of over a litre of 40% alcohol, i completely forgot what happened. my friend managed to drag me home after i got kicked out of the bar and was put in an armbar by the bouncer. he said i fell down outside numerous times which accounts for all the bruises on my body. one time i fell backwards and my head was saved by an indent in the ground. apparently when we got back to my apartment, i kept telling him we had the right room (he didn't know as this was his first time over). so there we were trying to open other people's doors at 2 in the morning. needless to say there are some angry neighbours inside my apartment. he said we went to 5 different places before we got the right apartment. i'm funny.

he then woke me up at 745 this morning by bashing my head as we both had a test at 8. i was still so drunk that i couldn't find my classroom for a good 30 minutes. i realized that they changed buildings on me as i went to reread the sign outside. however, they just crossed off the old building and didn't write in the new one so i was even more lost. my test went okay i guess for me being still so drunk and hopefully won't get put back to the beginner level hahaha.

anyways, after the test i came home and showered and had a nice nap before i met my friend again to help him buy a phone while he told me all the hilarious stories of last night.

funny thing is he wanted to go drinking again tonight with me again to the other all-you-can-drink. i think i'll pass for today. maybe tomorrow.
