Went to Gulou last night again, not for drinking.
Keep on waiting for the buses annoied me quite a lot. But that seems to be the only way I could get there. Transportation system in Beijing is still not as convenient as Taipei. I guess that's one of the biggest weakness of having a large land.
After arriving at the destination, I went to Baodao for my glasses. The price is a bit higher than my budget, but that seems to be the most reliable one around. (at least we are both from Taiwan. =P)
Then I visited Yandaixei Street for my new diary. I stopped keeping my diaries nearly a week before, because, after nine years, I finished my first diary book for traveling. It sounds like a long time, nine years, but since my visits to new york weren't included in the diary, it is, perhaps, not that long. The new diary book I bought has a leather cover and looks plain but thick and solid. I found the notebook last weekend, but hesitated for the high price. (well, it's not that expensive, but according to the living standard here, I think it's pretty high.) However, I found I just can't resist it, so I went back for it last night.
On the way back to my accomodation, it started to rain. When I got off at the bus station for transferring, the rain was awfully big. And again, I waited for quite a long time to get on the bus. Saw a girl from Taiwan on the bus when she was about to get off, her accent was so obvious, and at that time, I feel a sudden warm in the cold wet lonely night.

清早Kat的伯父帶我們出門,開車從小巷穿出,已經開始有婦女光著腳、頭頂容器出門。伯父說他平常也是差不多四點出門散步再回家吃早餐。(後來才聽Kat說伯父是個作息很神奇的人,十點到十一點睡,三點起,一天的睡眠大概就是這樣。老醫生的作息就是這麼樸實無華,所以可以退休後繼續做研究。)...
