Lost Music

I finally made it to Beijing after 13 hour flight from LAX. The flight was just fine until the last hour. I was trying to take a quick nap before landing when I find out the my iPod mysteriously reset itself and lost ALL my music! SO FREAKIN UPSET. The entire flight I was listening to music, watching Dazed and Confused and even playing some Sim Pool...then all of a sudden, my iPod lost all of that. So what to do now? I have no music and Im here for the next 2 months. Im going to try and download iTunes at the hostel and see if I can restore it because the iPod still shows that Im using 7.3 gigs, so apparently the music and movie is there somewhere.

Also, I got my first taste of being an American in China. My taxi driver ripped me off (I found out from the front desk clerk at the hostel when I told her the price). He charged me 3 times than what the locals pay. The front desk clerk says it happens all the time to first timers in Beijing. Next time, Ill make sure to find out how much it will cost to travel by taxi before getting into one.

Mijo, you didn't learn about taxi drivers? The is the oldest trip in the book. Remember, colombia?
Be in the look out, they can spot an american anywhere.
I am so sorry about your music. Now you have to download Chinese music?
