June 1st, the Children’s Day

Went to swimming, was given a card for showing at check in table. They start to limit the water to 10 minutes. A woman came to check on how the cards work and wa reasonable with complaints. Meeting former classmates, some I had never spoken with but met on WeChat since the autumn 2013. The power of social media. Thanks gals and boys!!

One Night ..一夜成名

Longzijian, Media Group produced (?) this movie, One Night to be Star (One Night to be A Star?). It faltered at the box office, so they did the obvious thing: uprooted and left without paying the rent -a siheyuan in Xisi. They left behind a few bottles of wine, among other ruins.
Another siheyuan in Beijing, law does little.
