Eric's Beijing Diary

It happened again today. I had just gotten off the bus from Fragrant Hills, when a lady came up to me.

"You should go to Joy City." She was referring to the new shopping mall in Xidan. I really am not much of a shopper--I think I have been to the shopping district in Xidan once or twice since I came to Beijing.

This afternoon, when I was waiting for the bus to come back out to Fragrant Hills, I met the same lady. What are the odds of that? She said, "You should go to Joy City." She even told me what bus to take. Well, maybe I will. I'm not in a hurry, though.
