Not to wallow in visa troubles, I present my Tibetan teacher’s absurdly cute son learning a cultural staple: the prostration.

Tongren, life 6:52 am

Well, staying here next semester has been all but ruled out. Today, I talked with the headmaster who very clearly stated the impossibility of me getting a work visa in Qinghai. What is still to be determined is whether or not I can stay here until the end of the term, or if I must high-tail it out of town next week. As of right now, my visa expires in 12 days…and counting. Tomorrow the Fates decide.

Funny that today marks 3 months in Rebgong.

Also interesting to see that when you are in trouble, your friends really do help you. Its nice to see that perhaps I do have more friends than I thought.
