the National Holiday begins

to start off the week long holiday i have, of course, contracted the sickness.  i'm still determined to have fun though, cold or no cold.  i will be leaving for Shanghai this morning and hopefully staying there in order to catch a glimpse of a very rare species in the Chinas: an electronic music festival on the outskirts of Shanghai's technology park... when i get back i'll give you all the details. + on saturday i'm going to a wedding in the country side, traditional with lots of food and if all goes well a little KTV in the city to finish the night... more stories to come!

wish me well and a safe bus ride for the next two hours
