Summary
Summer continues and it’s getting hot! Getting up at 3 am again… why don’t I just stay up? Cleaning begins, what else can I throw away? More clothes, shoes, cables and studio stuff. Still finding it hard to depart with some stuff. Talking with people around the compound, is 36 almost 40? And a Mother encourages her son to leave Beijing… the economy here is no good! Making plans for the summer months… every time I’ve done this it never works, so why bother? And listening to the first few episodes of the No Agenda Show, quite the development!
