China, 6 days.
Day1
I only slept 2hours because of me rushing my hbl. I slept at 2 plus and woke at 4 plus. I was not looking forward to it because of the lack of sleep and what i heard of the place. Which proved to be true to a certain extent. After a 5hour flight, we reached Shanghai. One thing that shocked me! The traffic! Seriously?! The red light for the vehicles still means green light. And the people love honking-.- cant stand them. the tour guide sucks. She purposely brought us to this place to buy some disgusting guo chan and gave us such short time. HOW TO SHOP?! The hostel isnt too bad, just no tv:(
Day2
Expo. I think ruoyu and me are the only dumb and in a nicer phrasing patient people. We went to queue for korean pavilion which is 3 hours long. The queue i mean. We experienced hell lot of pushing. I was so freaking pissed but some of them are elderly. I refused to move at some point of time. For those who kept pushing, i was so pissed i felt like punching them! And i spent less than 15minutes in the pavilion. Talk about waste of time. We spent the rest of the time in KFC and walking random. We actually wanted to go to the Europe side but unfortunately or fortunately, we asked a shuai volunteer. Haha, we tried to stalk him but lost him immediately. That was how noob we were. Although ruoyu took geography in secondary school, she was so lousy in reading the map of the expo. OR should i say she didnt even know where we were? Heard from Joyce that she scolded the person/people who pushed her away when she wanted to board the bus. She scolded in chinese and accidentally added "patience" in english. Haha, one onlooker said, "woah~" damn cool. I bought super expensive korean chopsticks. tsk.
Day3
Went to jincai high. The breakfast has dumplings and it's the best breakfast! :) The school compound is damn huge! and there's swimming pool and more than 6 basketball courts. My group was assigned to chemistry lesson and it's cool. pu tao tang is glucose and ruoyu and Kevin thought why their chemistry lessons have grape sweets. It's quite weird listening to chemistry taught in Chinese and their Bunsen burner looks cute but scary. We had interaction and the girl i talked to is so matured. She's 17 and she's my idol! she was saying that things will be easy (we know it's not) as long we have the right mindset. In English it doesn't sound cool but in Chinese it does! And she commented that Kevin's English sounds like Malay. There's a female classmate that likes Jae joong:) haha, she pastes his poster on the ceiling and their beds are very close to the ceiling. She sounded like a crazy fan from my buddy (meng qian)'s point of view. Had english lessons with them and the teacher's English standard is a bit __ . The teacher tried to involve us but to no avail. I was the one nearest to her so she called on me and asked if i like barbie doll. Erm, hello, i dont have childhood and i hate barbie dolls. We went for cruise after that:) It's cool and cold:) I like the wind. Ruoyu's photography skills are so fabulous. The bright lights from the nearby ferry made the photo in ruoyu's camera look like it's on fire.
Day4
We are going to Nanjing so we spent most of the day travelling. I love sleeping:) We stopped at this temple area but the small dragon buns are nice and cheap! 16 for 12yuans! it's 16 for 2 buck plus. compare that to Singapore's but i was stuffing those into my stomach and was sick of it after a while. gosh. There's shuai guy on tv! Oh my gosh, he's a bit like achord style:)
Day5
Ruoyu thought we were supposed to assemble at 830am when we were supposed to assemble at 8am. I thought it was 8am but Ruoyu said with such confidence so i believed her-.- We were still watching cartoon when Mr chew came to look for us.. that cartoon became ruoyu's favourite cartoon. haha. We went to another school, shu ren. The toilet is disgusting because when you stand after peeing, you can peek into others' cubicles. Yuck, i didnt use the toilet though.
Day6
Went for some crystal ball display where the shifu draw from inside the crystal ball. It's for some donation purpose so i bought one and i like the drawing too:) What i'm not happy is that that irritating tour guide gets commission from it. tsk. Continued our journey to suzhou and visited some silk making factory. I hate how people kill animals for redundant things like silk. That freaking tour guide refused to leave the place until we buy something. We are students eh. WHERE ON EARTH do we have money to buy silk? It's freaking expensive.
Day7
It's the slack-est day. We refused to go for the cruise because we needed to pay for it and that stupid tour guide gets commission from it. Hmph. So we spent a lot of time sitting at the restaurant after dinner talking crap. the teacher came over to our table and complained how little we ate and how the meat at their table were finished. We were like of course la! Your table has WEI DONG the carnivore. haha.
Day8
We almost cant make it to our flight but our dear bus driver sped to the airport! He's the best!
