I'll take 6 plates of 25 Dumplings each please, thank you

Tonight was probably the best dinner and the most fun I've had in China yet. It began with my new Chinese friend Ashley coming over to my apartment and helping record a short video of it for your viewing pleasure at home. I let her practice her English by being the guide for the video. She really did a great job and it was a lot fun to do it. For some reason part of the end got cut off, but I still think it is a great video. I posted the video on YouTube under Amelia's apartment. The video is also below:


As we were wrapping our video up the rest of the Baoding team came home and we decided to all go to dinner. Along with Ashley, George, Rachel and Vincent came to dinner with us. In China, parties can get private rooms, but at the restaurant we went to tonight in order to have a private room we had to spend 100 yuan. The main thing we wanted to order was jiao zi again, but it was only between 6-10 yuan per dish. So we endded up having to order lots and lots of jiao zi AND some other dishes. Toward the end of the night we played "the numbers" game. Basically you count the number of people in the room at random, but if two people say a number at the same time you lose, or if you are the last person to say a number. We decided as a group, because we had so much left over, the punishment for losing was you had to eat one dumpling. By the end of the numbers game we had hardly any jiao zi left, except the "mystery" jiao zi we had just ordered because it was the most expensive. Everyone in our group had a lot of fun and laughed hard enough to work off at least a few jiao zi.
