Topic: news Five Events in Chinese History (That Every Laowai Should Know About)

Comment (49)

For a short time I also thought that "Laowai" was a derogatory term but I was later corrected by some chinese friends. Although I can get sick of hearing it, and some of the younger generation do try and use it as derogatory, but in those rare situations I simply state that they are correct and add that I'm IMMENSELY thankful that I am. During my time here I've come to realize the many negatives of living here, and I've never been more thankful and proud of being a westerner! I'll return here only to visit, never to live, no matter how much money is offered to me. I'd rather quit than be transferred here again. Although learning another language is pretty cool.. yet...One year left and I'm counting the days!
