Comments - Concrete sunbathing, Chinese time-keeping and the art of honesty
AHAHAHAHA! I had two grade 6 girls point at my thighs this week and say 'wow, so wide!' They do it to each other as well though - in my describing lesson the fattest student got pointed out, and when I ask someone a question and they don't know, I get told 'teacher, he stupid' Brilliant.
How terrible! I don't think I've seen a photo of you, but, Sasheen, from your photo, I look like I may be a few pounds heavier than you... All I keep hearing is that ''Chinese girls aren't fat.'' and ''If you are anything over a UK size 6, don't expect to be able to find clothes to fit you in China!'' I don't get it!! I had school friends that were Chinese and they weren't particularly small...granted not large, but certainly not tiny!!
I'm dreading being the fattest girl in my city!! :(
I too have been barked at by not so friendly guards telling me to get off the Grass!!! Cept in Shaoxing they blow a whistle fisrst before coming storming over!!! Oh and the KEEPING THINGS TO YOURSELF thing, I totally get that!!! I've been told on more than one occasion that my rear end wasn't exhactly small and that i'm get this "a little bit fat" haha, thought it wasn't funny at the time!
