Friday Fictioneers: So Darn Cold!


I don’t believe this. This is Southern China. Why is it so freaking cold? Even the coldest winter in Northern Utah is warmer than this.

Hopping up and down, I tried to keep warm and despite I just had the hottest bowl of clay pot rice available, that warmth only lasted 5 minutes before I was back to shivering.

Would this dang light turn green already? I just want to go home and hide under a pile of blankets again. Just then, a double-decker bus sped by and as it passed, the passengers stared at me like I’m a foreigner.

    1. This was actually a semi-true story about the two weeks I spent in China in 2018. Though I looked like every other person on the street, I still stood out like a sore thumb because I wasn’t used to that kind of cold.
