We had class today. Yes, it's Saturday here, too. The time change isn't so dramatic that Saturday is eliminated. Apparently, having time off for, say, a Mid-Autumn Festival, means that you have to make that time up somewhere else. Like the weekend. Don't get me started on how that isn't really having time off but just shuffling days around.
So, yeah, 8am class on Saturday. Awesome. You know, I'd gladly trade my Mid-Autumn days back if I could have the weekend off. The weather is finally turning around, so it might actually be possible to do something.
In any case, I have class straight through until October 1, then the Chinese National holiday starts. I get 7 days off for that. I wonder how many Saturdays I will lose because of it.
We went to the mall the other day and I snapped some pictures of odd occurrences. Like those Christmas decorations. Here's another:
Nike Sweater. A sweater from the Nike store at the mall across Chang An.
This is a woman's sweater, by the way. I can't imagine many women who could pull off that slogan. I guess it's good that the Chinese don't seem to understand what it says.
