Ahh, microwaves. Those magical devices whose delicate "whhrrrrr"ing sound gently transform your cold spaghetti and meatballs from last night into a deliciously warm breakfast of champions. I was looking closer at the microwave in our dormitory and here's what I found on the pre-sets:



1) Reheat rice
2) Reheat stew
3) Reheat milk
4) Frozen pizza
5) Frozen dumplings
6) Steam egg
7) Ramen
8) Cook potatoes
9) Sterilize a nursing bottle

Glorious mix of east and west. Also seen recently - Konglish t-shirts:



Brilliant flowers on the edge of campus:



And ... my students threw me a party for teacher's day!



My camera is currently broken, which is why all of these were taken with my cell phone. I'm thinking about a Nikon or a Canon dSLR - any suggestions?
