Lately I’ve really been growing more and more dissatisfied with this “ju”… The construction noise mentioned earlier has still shown no sign of easing up (by rights, shouldn’t it at least be quiet for two days before the college entrance exam? They’re even more industrious than the examinees…), and a couple of days ago, for some unknown reason, they put up an extra wall at the entrance—now, although it’s directly opposite Peking University’s south gate, there’s a wall in between, and you have to take a huge detour to get in. Once the wall went up, of course the storefronts that do business there couldn’t stand it, and the mutton-soup ju seems to have closed down for good. Sigh… so annoying.
Might as well rename it to Winter-Cold-Summer-Hot Ju.

Beijing really is a place where, apart from bookstores and bicycle lanes, nothing is any good—especially the weather, with only summer and winter all year round… I do want to escape back to Shanghai sooner, but unfortunately Shanghai doesn’t have such good bookstores, alas~~ All in all, Beijing is still a bit better…
