Online Class Notes (Tibo) [S]

I will spend the 1 week in Beijing

the western side has been really cold, 2 weeks ago it snowed

I booked a tour I think it might be cozy

I went to backpacking with a bunch of people and we just crossed the mountain
and then we have no place to do the camping. They have strict obligations for the travelers so they won’t let us do camping. We planned to have a nice place to set up our tents but the policeman comes to our camping and asked us to leave and the army is just at the back of the mountain.
so we went to a parking lot.
it is mentally fun but physically torturing so every time I am excited and then I am like I don’t want to go.

my hometown is more inside on the land, it is not close to the sea and they eat more spicy so I cant afford it and they put a lot of salt.
And they don’t eat seafood. and from culture wise I become more open than before and my parents are very stubborn and old way or thinking.

they don’t have time on me
if you work within 5 years you will only have 5 days.

They just sold their cookie business to another company and they go to the milk powder and then the milk powder is downtrend and they are investing nutrition supplement.
It is very profitable
