Also, to the guys who want decent deodorant, I usually buy a couple of sticks at a time at Paul's shop by wenhua xiang (Yunnan Normal University).

Forums > Living in Kunming > I CAN'T FIND......WHAT ?

Yeah, shoes my size are hard to find here I think. size 10 1/2 american, 45 1/2 EU. Thanks for the advice there, JWJWJW.

Contact lenses are particularly hard to find, or not hard to find, but hard to find people who can deliver the right perscription.

Don't miss cereal too much. Typically I find that eating it just makes me tired later in the day, so I would usually just eat it for a late night snack in America.

So, what do I miss? American energy drinks: Monster, fizzy Red Bull, Rockstar, N0s, and so on...

Forums > Living in Kunming > Possibility of H1N1 (SWINE / PIG) FLU in Kunming...

Heya fellas,

I thought it was a reason to panic because in the beginning, out of 800-something cases, 160 or so people were reported dead because of swine flue, but now -almost magically- that number goes down to about 20. I guess the media was looking to cause panic. I only found that out the other day.

anywho, I'll still wear the breathing masks because it's not worth missing a day at work.

*shrug* It kills just as many people as any other flu virus now, so there's nothing to worry about.

To tanfei, it was in yesterday morning's newspaper. I don't know the name, as I can only recognize 130 han zi and it was all in Chinese.

So, I was reading the paper this morning and it turns out that the same fellow who caused a minor out-break in Hong Kong also shared a flight with six Yunnanese residents. My friend who translated it said that all six people who shared the flight with the man with H1N1 from Mexico City to Shanghai transferred to Kunming Airport. It was also published that the same six people have been quarantined.

Just a heads up: If I were you, I would go out and buy some breathing masks (Koujao). I have three right next to me, and if I ever hop on a bus, I'll be wearing one for sure.
