After talking about buying a bicycle for quite a while, I finally did it. I feel so much more Asian! Riding to school here is certainly nothing like riding to school in America. Never in America did I get stuck in a traffic jam created by a horse-drawn cart, follow a whole bedroom suite down the road (riding on the back of one bicycle), or have to weave in and out of vegetable and fish carts in order to get to school. The challenge is to see how long I can keep this bicycle from getting stolen. Bicycle theft is a popular trade around here, and seeing that I didn't buy my bike on the black market, it is prime target.
