bamboo: snake oil for the modern american

hello!

just finished a long and tedious day working on our first project here in hong kong. we had to select a product or idea that we think could and should be used in america. my group chose bamboo, a sort of 'wonder-plant' depending on the climate it's grown in. here are some fact about bamboo you might not know: totally kidding, i won't bore you with that stuff. although it is an amazingly versatile plant that we should definitely start growing. we're relaxing back in our rooms now, about to head out for a group dinner in hong kong. indian food! woohoo! i was thinking today, "man, you know, i haven't really farted a lot since i've been here. i would really like to be constantly having to run off to a corner, pretend like i'm taking a picture, and rip a big fart." NOT. so thanks in advance, indian food. i'm sure we'll have a great day tomorrow crop-dusting the design studio with some butt squeaks.

i've already kind of grown to liking this city, i'm gonna be sad to see it go on sunday. i think it has kind of sealed the deal for me that i'd like to live in a city when i leave college. there's so much to do and see and there's always something going on, but if we need to, we just hop down three stops on the train and we have the solitude of our own rooms. it's nice to have that kind of freedom. so, add that to the list: buy motorcycle, keep up with the body decoration when applicable, move to a rad city. hopefully i'll get some pics up later tonight/tomorrow. dinner time! later
