(Funny) Random Things Part IV

Whenever I go anywhere, people stare. This has become normal. People stare more in Wenjian than in Chengdu because there really aren't other foreigners in Wenjian. 

Sometimes people just walk right up to me and snap a photo. It's fine. It doesn't really bother me.
However, my most recent experience getting my photo taken was a little different. 

The school had an assembly. While I was standing to the side of the stage this woman came up to me, handed me her child and told me to look at the camera.
There was no, "Can I take a photo of you? Would you mind holding my child?"
Before I knew it, I had this little boy in my arms (luckily he was old enough to NOT be wearing the split pants with his behind open to the fresh air). 
After the boys mom took him back, I took this photo of them:
China loves trees and flowers. They have so many trees.
While I was walking across campus I noticed something really strange about the trees...
They were all attached to an IV!
The bag that had the fluid in it was all in Chinese, so I have no idea what was in it. 
But, it certainly looked really strange. 
Have I mentioned that there is a HUGE pool in my apartment complex?
It is massive. And actually, there are two pools, and a hot tub.
However, since it costs money to have a pool, and all of the apartments have already been purchased, the owners of the complex saw no reason to continue paying for the upkeep of the pool.
