Q: What did you learn from China and the Chinese that you would take back home with you?
To be more suspious, less trusting and that's not a bad thing, there seems to be a lot of douches at home.
Don't stress so much about shit that you can't change. Surrender?
Scandinavian:
I can change anything I want ! Giving up, what is the point in even being alive.
That is you want to run a successful prostitution ring, you need to stick business cards under the doors at cheap hotels.
Big bag of rice!
So, I can enjoy it with nice cold pint of

If you don't have an iPhone you're either poor or there's something wrong with your brain. If you have a Mac or Air, you're royalty.

My private student with iPhone in Dalian, commented on my 150rmb Nokia brick: 'only losers in China have such a phone.....'

I have a 3000 RMB Samsung, but that is not good enough.
I have an iPhone someone loaned me. I use it for face, like a Rolex, but honestly it's a good phone. But the Sammy is #1.
Western medias are right, there is something really wrong with China, but it's not the government who never bothered me at all (local officials even invited me to dinners, gave me countless hongbao/gifts, and we had good laughs after a few cups of baijiu as I can speak putonghua), the common folks however...
That adding two numbers together e.g. 20 + 30 is not something one should do without the help of, at the bare minimum, electronic aids. Such mathematical complexity requires the use of at least a calculator but more advanced equipment such as an abacus is always preferable. Once the calculation has been carried out successful using suitable equipment, it should be rechecked twice and referred to the supervisor for confirmation.

This is true, but I don't get it. They can do vector calculus all day, but they still use a calculator for everything.
Never take no for an answer? That is mostly for administrative tasks or stuff you need done. Don't assume a person is going to be "doing something" but check up constantly to push them and make them put you first so you stop bugging them.
