Last night some of us took a trip to Brown Sugar, an alleged jazz club in Xintiandi. I say alleged because the music consisted of fake jazz for about the first fifteen minutes and then progressed into some style of jazz/rapping/hip hop. Still, the music was great and ladies' night champagne (plus refills) was delicious. The crowd was pretty diverse -- or, rather, it was a diverse mix of expats. Some "regulars" kept coming up to the bar and giving the bartender (mohawk, edgy) strange handshakes for drinks. All in all, a very hip place -- if my stamp of approval means anything, I say go for it.
In other news, I have developed a morning routine of waking up at 7:30 and turning on my computer to listen to music and scroll through emails. This is one of my favorite parts of the day because I recieve so many lovely emails from my friends. I love how interested they are in what I'm doing in China and how my life is going. Hopefully, they know that I love them as much (if not more) and want to know how their summers are going as well!
I have also been contemplating the origin and evolution of adventures. It seems some people have greater affinities toward crazy occurrences than others. Most of the time, these people:
a. have an indifferent/IDGAF attitude
b. aren't afraid to break the rules or get in trouble
c. are attractive
My resolution is to be around people like this more and maybe gain a greater affinity toward craziness (through osmosis?).
hmmm a,b,and c seem to describe someone we know...
