The Money Shot
Being the popular tourist attraction that it is, Xuzhou didn’t really have any unique souvenirs to take home. But I did find a toy jelly lens you can stick on the front of your camera to take close-close-close-close-up pictures of stuff. While most of the pictures I’ve taken have been of dirty toothbrushes, dead mosquitoes, and disgusting frogs (linked for fair warning), I do have two pictures of Chinese coins relevant enough to post on the blog… and act as a great filler until I’m in the mood to sit down and write an article about how much I hate dealing with Chinese schools. Enjoy!

Good luck working through all of that. I’m sure someone will realize their error and hire you for as long as you want to be there.

Some Chinese schools aren’t worth dealing with.
And those are some impressive close-ups. Definitely could’ve used that feature a few times (my close-ups always come out blurry).

Hey, Matt. I decided it’s not such a good idea to log in and post comments through a proxy server, but I’m still reading your blog. I bet you’re glad you don’t have to deal with this censorship garbage firsthand.

Wow. That is the most disgusting frog I have ever seen. I hope you didn’t find it in your kitchen.

It was at the Terracotta Warrior Museum in Xuzhou. Don’t worry, the creatures in my kitchen aren’t nearly as gross.
