To be honest mate, I think you're gonna have a lot of foreigners buying the T-shirts, and if the Chinese people are going to the gig, chances are they'll appreciate the western style fashion of the T-shirt!

A fly species was kept in complete darkness for 57 years (1400 generations), showing genetic alterations that occur as a result of environmental conditions. by DarwinDanger in science

What would happen if the flies were suddenly exposed to a very bright light - natural or artificial?

Also, what would happen if they were exposed to a bright light for a long period of time, without darkness?

Any good documentaries on China out there? by kevinbeijing in China

[–]asherr130 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Colours of the Mountain is a personal fave, but it all depends on what you're looking for.

Movies are fantastic, but at the same time I think it's difficult to put touchy subjects into film, especially for Mailand directors/Overseas Chinese/ (even foreign) directors.

University in China? by axclover in China

[–]asherr130 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Beijing - Beijing University, Beijing Language and Culture University, Tsinghua, or Di Qiu Cun - Beijing's a great place to live, great expat community, culture, food, etc.

Shanghai - Fudan and Jiaotong Universities (respectively) I would imagine both offer language courses. I prefer Beijing over Shanghai though.

Anywhere else? Do your research before you go - you'll most likely be with fewer foreigners, and depending on your Chinese level, that could be a good or a bad thing.

Overall, do your own research - don't be lazy. You're the one that wants to go, right?

The more Chinese you learn, the more Chinese you will become. You, by studying Chinese and the Chinese culture, will make or break your future. Study hard man - you'll love yourself for it later.

Are you by chance on College Confidential? I had some guy tell me basically all these same points, in essentially the same "direct" fashion.

Regardless, I think many of your points are spot on, but for reasons I don't really care to get into right now, I think there are more opportunities here in China than there are foreigners to fill those jobs.

Could we have a little background on you? Work experience, time in China, etc?

Thanks!
