THE MUSIC BLOGGING HIVE MIND

First of all I would like to begin this post by introducing myself. My name is Nehemiah9 and I'm a Scorpio. I currently live in Beijing, China as a Foreigner. I also teach English, do graphic design, and create & perform Hip-Hop music. Here's a link to a 6 years olde song I created: Link!So anyway I just got back from Hainan (the Hawaii of China or so 'they' say) to teach at an English camp. I arrived at the Beijing Capital Airport around 11 pm, so I ended up taking a taxi home instead of an airport shuttle bus, on the word of a taxi driver trying to get me to take his taxi. "No bus. No bus." I ended up taking a different taxi though. So we're cruising along at a good pace and about half way home I notice that he's having trouble keeping his eyes open. So, I'm watching him in the rear-view mirror, and he's driving pretty fast with other cars around, and I see him close his eyes for almost a full two seconds as he slowly starts drifting to the right. I finally snapped out of it, and decided I better do more than just watch so I tapped him on his shoulder, and he immediately said, "我没有困!" (can you see Chinese characters here?) or "I'm not tired!" in English. O...k... I didn't mention anything about him being tired, so for some reason I didn't really believe him. Anyway, I ended up arguing with him about him being tired. He said he was fine, so I decided that if he even blinked twice in a row, I would get out. So, I spent the next 15 minutes staring at his eyes in the rear-view mirror with the window open. Moral Of The Story!: Get out immediately if you see that mess. Tip!: Maybe make up an excuse or don't give the reason you want to get out, so that they can't argue with you and try to convince you that they haven't actually been up for 23 hours.Quote!: "Truthfulness is the foundation of all human virtues." -Baha'u'llahRandom Factoid!: This blog is getting long and cluttered!

  2. Amy E says Haha...I love the "I'm not tired" line. Elise uses it all the time, even when we haven't mentioned bedtime.
