well i think that traffic is the one thing that pisses me off the most. that being said, the ease of getting around is nice. whether it be by taxi, bus, train, or cheap flight. having a car is necessary in my hometown, and I love not having a car and getting around easily here .... it even makes up for dealing with the occasional taxi-prick

Getting preferential treatment all the time.  But I still stay humble.
The smoking is great and the cheap cost of living as long as I stay away from expat hangouts.

The contradictions which are treated as a normality. Contradictions in the west never happen according to the west. So the transparency in China is a welcome relief over ego, pretentiousness and misguided beliefs.

lol no ego pretentiousness and misguided beliefs in China.

MissA:

The wine where I live is actually pretty good :) The beer is generally pretty awful, granted, but there is one decent lager and a newly discovered (by me) dark beer and these are drinkable.

When I first came, I liked the expat party scene. Staying out till all hours, cheap booze, stuff like that. 

Now, what I like is that I've managed to carve out a great group of friends. As much as I want to go home. I actually think it would be really hard to leave them. You grow pretty tight with your friends here. Your TRUE friends. People come in and out of your life regularily. But, you only meet a handful of people that will likely be here as long as you. And those people are the ones I like best about my life here. 

A few drinks and some good friends....it's all I really need.

A:  "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "S
A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
