U know Uniqlo


There are so many protests going on in China right now about Japan's interest in buying a disputed island territory. People are bonkers. International schools have been shut down and the Japanese embassy has been flooded with angry protesters around their grounds. There are notices everywhere telling any and all foreigner's to stay away from the protests because with the government change-over that is happening in October, officials are looking for any reason to revoke Visa's. That being said, Uniqlo was packed this weekend. Uniqlo was my favorite store in Japan for clothing basics, and in Beijing it is the best price for good quality stuff. I prefer Uniqlo to H&M, Zara, etc., because the pieces are typically timeless and last longer than a few months without being overly priced. The photo above is the Uniqlo in Sanlitun.







I have a killer cold right now. The weather has been great, but I've done a lot of going in and out of cold nights/mornings, warm afternoons, and dusty particles in the air. I was in Sanlitun for a Chinese lesson! Tea! Chinese study! Productive SIIIIiiiiIIcknessssss.
