Back from China on Friday night! Boy, the weather there is awesome, cooling and nice, just like Japan two years back. So unlike Singapore's disgusting hot humid sultry one. BUT!! There is a serious language barrier for me and the people there. Is it just my chinese sucks, or the way they speak. Speaking cantonese most of the time doesn't help too. Lots and lots of shopping, shopping almost everyday, tagged along while they buy goods. Over there, all the sales people call everyone who passes by 'lang loy' or 'lang zai' which means 'liang nu' and 'liang zi' (Pretty girl/handsome boy) Hahaha! Even those old ladies with wrinkles and hunched, are called that and they look happy.

Pity it was coming winter for them in China, and I didn't get to buy much clothes because everything was woollen. My uncle entertained clients every night, so we got to follow too, and it was plain awesome. Ate good food every dinner, had a good laugh although most of the time I just sat there and pretended to understand what was going on. HAHA! Stayed at Taiping, but rented cars to go down to GuangZhou and ShenZhen on two days. The Beijing duck was D-E-L-I-C-I-O-U-S. Nicer than what I tasted before. OH OH and I went ZHU HAI. The place we were supposed to go last year with lao shi and friends, but they cancelled the trip. Bleah. Anyway, the shopping centres are HUMONGOUS! Its like 10 times of Taka or sth, can get lost in there. It was a good trip, but I fell sick when I came back. ):

Shopshop chatchat with Shir yesterday. She's craving and crazing over her PSP lite metallic purple. I want that too. Haha, but noo Aline Chan, save up for your cam remember! Oh yes.
