Apart from making wishes before blowing out birthday candles, I rarely make wishes or ask for anything that I really really want because I've always felt like it was personally wrong to want/demand something that was far-fetched. So while we were staying in the Inner Mongolia's, I woke up super early on the first morning to see the sunrise out on the grasslands and everyone except for One was too tired or cold to walk out into the dark. In order to catch a better view of the emerging sun I walked towards this gentle hill and on top there was this handmade yurt looking thing made out of hundreds of rocks... As J and I waited for the sun to come out, we learned that one can walk around it clockwise three times before making a wish. Off I went prancing around the rock structure.
...I honestly never would have thought that this wish would actually come true. =)
