I managed to get on the interwebz from my uncle's computer, therefore I thought I'd post what I've done so far:

-Shopping, shopping shopping. I'll post pictures of the things I bought (and there are a LOT) once I get back to Canada.

-Visiting my grandpa in the hospital almost everyday. He's doing a lot better nowadays. When I first walked in, he didn't immediately recognize me, but when he did, he started to cry. :(

-Was forced to get two moles removed by my family by laser surgery. Apparently they grew in a bad place and had to be removed... now I have two holes in my face.

-Bummed around and watched pirated DVDs. I managed to get all the seasons of House for 15 RMB, which is $2.50 Canadian. :P

That's all for now, hope you're all enjoying your summers! It's not boiling hot in China right now, surprisingly, today's high is only 28 degrees Celsius!

Well, it's exactly what the title says: I'm going to Shanghai! Yep, I'll be fried alive daily out in the streets of Shanghai for 3 weeks.

I won't be able to blog there because Blogger is blocked in China, and I haven't written any posts in advance because... well, I'm lazy. :P

Things are quite hectic at the moment. Since my dad's not going with me and my mom, I had to bake him 4 loaves of bread and a dozen muffins to make sure he doesn't starve. I also still need to pack all my clothes and toiletries, but I can't pack the latter until tomorrow morning after I've brushed my teeth and stuff.

I'm going back mostly just to visit family; my grandpa's been in the hospital for a while (about two years now) and I also haven't seen my other relatives in about 3 years.

Anyway, I come back on August 11th, so I'll see you all then!

Also, I'm interested in knowing what you've done/are planning to do this summer. :)
