Ever tasted dragon fruit? I just had it for breakfast! One of my students gave me one, and it was delicious! Not too sweet, and very refreshing.
I was suprised that it was white inside, with tons of tiny seeds... a little like a kiwi. Mmmm!
For lunch, I took one of my students, Chen Ying Ying, to McDonald's, because she had never eaten there before. It's actually on the expensive side in China. :o) We each had a cheeseburger and shared the fries.
After McDonald's, I spent 3 hours with my students at KTV (karaoke). I heard so many sad love songs in Chinese, I don't think I'll ever need to hear another one. :o) It was incredibly fun. I made several special performances, including "Leaving on a Jet Plane", "I Will Survive", and "Jingle Bells", which my students chose as a joke.

One more great example of terrific Engrish. Some things are just lost in translation...
