back from shanghai china and wasnt any snow, the only thing that still fascinates me is that in here, our hand signal for seven, is their hand signal for 8 coz it looks like the chinese character 8.
went to see a doc today coz very terribly ill. remind me nvr to wear slippers on a fair weather day lke today, out from doctor, it was pouring and i was practically walking in puddles! then i notice smtg funny. Why do people cover theirheads with bags when they do not have umbrellas? i mean they ought to find some way to cover their chest area or better, the whole body. I mean if someone catches a cold, its because the chest(lungs) area was cold. their head wun possibly catch any illness. the hair is just piles of dead cells. Unless u are medusa which every strand of "hair" is a working system and a living thing on its own with a mind. also why do people spent so much money and hair to make it look like mud/sand colour or make hair of charcoal colour look nice? then when i touch just the tip of a strand of their hair, they make a big fuss out of it
Rain rain go away,
Come again another day.

It was an up and down day and ill still consider it to be down cause the up didnt really lift me up.
So we sort of quarrelled coz my sis cld juz keep buying stuff and i cldnt not even souveniors for my friends and i got stuck while she can spent that much on her souveniers so i pretty much didnt get anything for u guys.
then christmas dinner. it was sort of like a feast. had wonderful garlic bread, salads( two kinds- chinese and ang mo. chinese = add sesame oil and ang moh = add egg) lots og chicken wings and a apot of oxtail stew. My cuzzin he is almost two years younger then me alot more smaller and shorter and weaker than me challenged me to an eating competition whioch i gladly say i barely won. Gosh cld he eat! dunno where he puts it all. Won him by a 1 chicken wing in the most wings eaten contest. won him by half a slice in the cake-eating contest, ate a gingerbiscuit more than him, drank half a cup more coffee than him and it all adds up. We all acted like professional band and used a ukelele as an electronic guitar, candle as a microphone, electronic guitar set as a real one, and organ as the keyboard and we played alot of songs. White chrstmas, My Humps, You're Beautiful while our parents taped it. After that pleayed cluedo which i sadly lodt to the girls. haiz.
So im leaving china today with my cuzzins. they go japan while we return to sg. will reach sg abt 7 with the many things to unpack. hmm lots of hw havent do. got to cram it all up these few days left.

Hmm so ive been in china for like more than a week now. shall try to recall the past events...
Sat night-
At the airport waiting for plane, used free comp there. My sis thought the webcam on my screen cld not be shown by other ppl. Who knew? Tiff saw it and my sis freaked out. serious comedy scene.
Sun-
took plane, nvr sleep. customs was a serious bore. The two gangster looking brothers from the plane i feaared ar first sight was in our grp. i tot it sucked. Went to Cheng Huang Miao, super crowded. went to eat some super famous xiao long bao and i didnt like it for its strong taste. so had to wait like 2 hrs for the next part of pur tour mates coz they cldnt catch the SQ flight with us...boring day.
mon-
Super cold and surprisingly alot colder than the -13degrees in korea when its 5 degrees here. went to hangzhou where its said to be alot of beauties. Theres a saying, " 1st grade beauties are married overseas. 2nd grade beauties go big cities. 3rd grade beauties go home and cook rice." So we will nvr see real beauties. then at night the gangster boys asked us to play poker with them. Some how i agreed and played. Found out they werent that gangly. and our tour guide had to do 26 push-ups coz he lost in poker, Funny, he came up with the idea, played the china way, and he lost big. ohya bought some stupid top grade HangZhou xihu Long Jing Cha from the plantation. suppose to be cheap? wrong! it cost like 200+ sing dollars for a kg of Huang Shang quality.
Tue-
went to Mt Huangshan. the trip was okay. It wasnt cold, the catch, we climbed up the mountain to go up as it is kinda dilapitated. so it was freaking cold on my exposed skin and burning warm inside.i climbed like 3000+ stairs up, 500+ stairs to the hotel.
Wed -
went 200+ stairs up to see a non-existing sunrise ( due to cloud cover). and 200+ stairs back down. after breakfast, we walked abt 3000+ stairs down the mountain. In an overview, we climbed abt 7000+- stairs to see clouds -covered scenery.
Thur-
went to see the dunno what tea pot. the teapot very funny. a few has got ABS( automatic braking system) meaning the creator made this hole, if u cover it, no water will flow out. so its kinda fun. The special one has got this cup which brim is 1mm above the brim and has an "up" meniscus. it cost like $100. Imagine. Its all made from a TOP material only available in ONE mountain and its gonna be extinct soon. The master made abt only 11 pieces and sort of died. 11 pieces in the world, super precious.and sold it for $100. With no marking what so ever to indicate the serial number. Furthermore, they requests personal details of immediate family to be given so they can check next time. WOW SO REAL! played pool on billards table. The gang brothers ( keith and zi xiang) seemed alot nicer and improved my game, retaught me pool.
Fri-
Went to Su Zhou. Another beauty place. and boring too. went to this pearl shop...still v bored. Basically su zhou is super bored.
Sat-
went to shanghai. seriously. this side of shanghai is so much better nice ladies everywhere u turn this shop that shop on the bike in the car. Everywhere!
Sun-
went to my cuzzin's hse. Here's a brief hist. this company brought my uncle to shanghai. Dunno what happen, the company brought his whole family over. 1 wife 2 kids. Thats not all, they gave him a Bungalow/villa which is super huge with other villas, in the richest district in shanghai. its like fully furnished, with garden, balcony, backyard. And they provided him a car and a chauffeur to fetch him and his family arnd. PLUS a salary v huge and an allowance for the family to use. The children all got allocated to american international school. Is that crazy or what? So played smtg called BB guns with Brandon quite fun.
The rest of the days was quite okay. MOstly its mad buying for the ladies, and torture waiting for the males. ohya, bought like 2 adidas shoes and 2 nike shirts coz its like super cheap... whoo so happy for myself and its not fake either. and its like the happiest shopping ive ever been to and the most.

So the duck tour was very lame, 1 hr drive arnd here and took stupid photos. Won the yellow colour quacker which was like the best part of the trip. Went around quacking up other ppl. Hmm they ask you questions and u have to ans and i did ans correctly. The question was," Which of the three biuldings is the tallest? UOB biulding, Raffles Plaza, and some hotel. My ans was all the same cause i was forced to ans, and i didnt really know. So i chose the ans least possible to the qn. Haha, who knew?

Today is the first day. They must have left at around 7 o'clock. Was dead tired at that time considering sleeping at 5. Was very disgusted though by what my junior told me. Disgusting horrible stuff that no man would ever want to know but she just told like no biggie.
Then again, gonna miss out on all the fun, games, workshops, gambling, crapping. Haiz i can still remember last year, Room Service.Getting locked out of the room.Watching that stupid show "Baseketball".Winning that Gold C.Losing that 100 bucks. It was hell lot of fun and im gonna miss it all! ARGH! why did i ever let my parent talk me into not going? 3 days is plenty of days to rest. im gonna miss gambling, all the workshops. More importantly, the workshops are supposed to help me in SYF next year and i will be like the one who doesnt go! Then theres the carols which sound interesting. Haiz.
So its the first time in aboiut 2 weeks that i can finally wake up early.
