I
think bathroom accommodations run hand-in-hand with economic status,
the more money you have, the higher you sit. The folks in Inner Mongolia
sure do have stalls with squat-pots and no doors/no privacy. A squat-pot
is a little porcelain pit in the ground that flushes. To relieve oneself,
you squat over the pit, pee or poo, and flush. Unless you're at a
high class place it's BYOTP (bring your own toilet paper). I chalk
the no privacy thing up to China's insanely large population.
As
if squatting isn't enough of a strain, some people miss the pit
when going both #1 and #2. As the day progresses, fecal matter begins
to populate the area around the pit. The fecal matter population
was so high before 7 am cleanup that I waded into the middle of
a giant treeless field to pee. Some people saw me naked from the
waist down, but I'll never see them again.

my journal even though i never update; I think all my other readers have given
up. Blah, blah, your dorm. Something, something, pi? Something, something, 3.14159265...?

Enter
stage right Ms. China Doll
a
back-dated entry
Having
a lifelong habit of flouting my ethnicity instead of flaunting it,
imagine my embarrassment when on a date I realized that my inability
to use chopsticks was not due to my swanky coolness, but my own
ignorance.
With
this in mind, Katherine and I are China bound for summer to discover
our Asianess.
