Woman get’s called a rude bitch…

So today I decided to treat myself to a pre-made breakfast. Of course that meant leaving my house. And that meant (I am a girl after all) a quick brush through the hair, making sure I looked decent then off I went.

One of my favourite Mongolian breakfasts is a corn style roll split open some pickled veggies tossed in, some chillies, spices, a tea boiled egg, some more spices and chillies, some more pickled cabbage and oh my. It’s sooooo good!!!

So I walked the few hundred metres to the little street shop minding my own business as I was lost in my own thoughts. Upon arriving at the little stand, I had to wait a few moments as there were people who were there first.

See! I really do have patience!!!

So I waited and waited… and other people started walking over towards the breakfast stand. I continued to wait because I really wanted some of this yumminess for breaky! Finally the people who were there before me were finished and started to walk away, and this Chinese man walked up to the woman and placed his order. He had walked up in front of me, and in front of two other people.

The woman began to prepare his order.

I was a little irked. I am trying to get out of the habit and re-learn that I cannot allow people to walk all over me and take me for granted. I need to re-learn that my ass is not meant for walking on, it’s meant for much more pleasurable activities. I tapped him on the shoulder and asked him told him that other people were in line first and he should go to the back of the line.

He spun and looked at me, called me a “rude bitch” in Chinese and continued to place his order.

I just smiled, shrugged my shoulders and walked across the street to the other street seller of the same breakfast food. I don’t mind crossing the road or anything, just the first lady has a nicer pickled cabbage I enjoy more!!!

So I got my breakfast, re-crossed the street, and started off the short trek home. One of the women who was behind me in the original line, snuck up behind me and in really terrible English said, “sanka-you” (thank-you). 

What Woman Sees… take IV a car ride

Our last post together on this wild and crazy ride through The World According to Woman… I spoke about a car crash, and I promised some pictures.

Here you go! Some pictures of my drive into work today then home (Wednesday)… these are very typical actions by pedestrians and drivers and yes. There was a driver who rear-ended someone and rather than  going off to the side of the road… they just let traffic go around them.

So here you have it!!!

Some crazy drivers!!!  And something that really irks me big time.

Many Chinese people seem to think that foreigners who arrive in China do not love their “motherland” (talk about political correctness)- sorry, I mean home country. It’s funny, because I think so highly of western life and of Canada to have moved to another country and teach about it.

I love this new country so much that I take the extra few steps to the rubbish bin, I never throw stuff on the ground. And this is what I just cannot get. Isn’t love showing respect? And respect would be to take care of our surroundings?

Nevermind. That is a rant for another day!

Oh! And the ladies sitting around on the street corner? Well, we don’t have hookers on the corner, we have maids. And sorry gentlemen… they don’t show any skin.

The majority of my toys came in the mail today… I’ve spent most of the evening enjoying them!!!! So many to choose from I don’t have a favourite amongst them yet!!!

Take care and see you all super soon!!!

Woman speaks of a car crash…and other things

My last blog post gave you a little insight to what has been occupying my thoughts for a long while here in the Big Silly- otherwise known as China.

It’s been filling my head for well over three months, and sometimes I feel like my mind is going to explode with what I have learnt, and at other times, I feel so frustrated because there is no one I can actually talk to about this. I try to talk to anyone in my family, I am just told to leave China and come home to where I belong. I try to talk to any of the few remaining friends I’ve left in the West, they say the same thing (only that I should come “home” and get married and start having babies). I talk to any of my friends here, the Chinese ones don’t fully understand and only hear the negative in my words and that’s not the cause of my frustration; the cause is that I cannot stand seeing this country slipping backwards and they cannot see that. The few foreigners I socialise with just shrug their shoulders saying that there is nothing that I can do so why bother since I’ve no real control about anything, which is true, but I still feel frustrated with them.

So yes, over the next little bit, I have a sneaky suspicion that you will be getting lots of China dished out into your eyes. And it’s not even going be the good kind but some of the negative as well.

Anyways… it’s Wednesday, and why yes! Yes, I should be at work!!! But the school in it’s infinite wisdom decided to give the students three days for a sports meet where only the students competing in a specific sport are interested, the rest are so bored out of their minds that they usually end up sleeping. I was told that I didn’t have to attend, which is good, for I hate sports meets with a passion. I am annoyed with them for a very simple reason. Sports get three days with students getting that time off from school. English or any other science competition, or any sort of Lecture for English, students have to do it in their time and work around their other teachers lessons.

So me in my infinite wisdom, decided to have three hour mini-extra-lessons for those that are interested in extra practice during the next few days. My students seems thrilled about it when I spoke to them, but we’ll see how many show up.

Yesterday morning as I was walking home from the hotel, I was crossing the street right outside of my apartment, when just to the right of me there was the sound of almost plastic on plastic. 

The Witch Hunt in China… a confusing rant by Woman

Hello hello hello!!!

It is another day in May!!!

The sun is shining, the dust still hangs in the air, we still wait for rain…. and it seems that Beijing is on a witch hunt for foreigners.

And seriously… it does seem like a witch hunt.

Granted, some of the foreigners deserve to be asked to leave; I am thinking of that cellist on the train from the Beijing orchestra, who decided to call a woman a “stupid cunt” in Chinese. Now, let me be the first one to tell you, no one uses “sha bi” unless they mean it. That is uncalled for. But I wonder what was done to provoke him? Was he provoked?

Or the drunken European who was caught on cam trying to force himself upon a Chinese woman on a public street.

Yes, these are definitely out of control situations.

And these situations should never happen. But they do.

And it sucks for foreigners here like me who have lived and worked honestly here.

This ruddy tiered society where the big cities are at the top of the waterfall, and the rest of us have to deal with the crashing  water weighted down by gravity as it falls into the river below.

It seems here in the city, the witch hunt is happening, but not as bad as the big city.

What happens when social graces are not followed… Woman’s style

I’ve not really posted about me and life in a little bit so I figured I’d drop a post for you all and fill you in on some of the more… fun things that have gone one.

After dealing with my horrible maid since November, I have fired her ass.

I know! How many times have I complained about her?

She showed up at my house and did what she has always done, not showed up on time but when she felt like arriving, and with no knocking, just barges right in. Now I’ve made it quite clear in both English and Chinese, and even with actions and it was even in her contract that she must knock first before entering, she never has.

So me being the bitch I am, made sure she would learn this lesson.

One of the engineers from the water plant who of course being Texan enjoys a snarky laugh was included. I had him tied to my bed, while I was in a corset (thank god for that support, my back is still healing!!!!) and thigh highs and funky printed cotton knickers (Damn skippy I have great style).

G-spot toy comparison; Fun Factoy, Zini, Jopen, Je Joue and Lelo oh my!

As you all know, I am an avid sex toy collector.

And one of my favourite toys to collect, are g-spot toys. Not rabbits, but g-spot toys. And let me just set the record straight, many of these toys can be used to find your prostate (or your p-spot gentlemen) as well. So… if you are interested in p-spot play time, and want to feel like you want something luxurious for your arse… this might be the post for you! Just don’t let go or you might get something stuck up your bum.

I love how all these toys look, and I love the way that you can use them on your clit to start, then once your juices start to flow you can go crazy thrusting or tease yourself even more by giving yourself another clitoral orgasm.

I know, I know many people would prefer a rabbit because then your clit AND your g-spot gets some attention. Well I prefer two toys or a toy and my fingers if I am playing solo because if I am playing with a partner? A rabbit can hurt. I am dead serious here. He thrusts but he doesn’t really get the whole, “well you cannot thrust too hard or else that causes me injury” thing where the insertable arm meets the clit arm thing. Or even worse??? He could break the toy!!!

I’ve never broken my toy, but golly gee, I’ve been broken a time or two because of this scenario. And if you can? Avoid this situation at all cost!!! It hurts!!!! And I would weep if my favourite toy were to be broken because of a man not listening.

So now that you know why I am not too keen on rabbits, that doesn’t mean I don’t like rabbits. I just prefer g-spot toys with no clit arms. I bought my first rabbit since my vagina decided to take up smoking years ago and I have fallen in love with its power making me question the above, but making me cautious about the clit arm breaking. And you will get to meet him today because he is part of the g-spot toys.
