HELLO PEOPLE! i'm finally back from bei jing! it was really cold there. but i brought more than enough clothes. then must wear sooo many layers. and it's just soo difficult to go to the "nice" toilets. =X and the people there really have attitude problems. treated us like aliens. but the tour guide was really qualified for the GEMS thing. she was really very conscientious in her work and she even went the extra mile. i really missed singapore when i was there. this time was a long trip. it was actually 8 days to be exact and not 7. the first day was a bad day. it was freaking cold due to the rain and my dad caught a cold and mum fell down due to the slippery ground and dumb shoes. my skin tore due to the dry weather, my hair went hay wired as i did not bring my personal shampoo. the food there was pratically the same every single day. salty and oily. many dishes but we simply couldn't finish it. they say that the system is 1 person equivalent to 1 dish. oh my. the only nice food is egg and cream puffs.0.o everybody was soo sick and tired of it la. and my grandma had stomach flu. she vomited soo many times that it freaked all of us out. plus the wind was very strong that day. we went to see mao tze dong too. and had our chinese names carved nicely on chops. we went to another city called jing zhou to visit my granduncle. he was rather happy to see us although he had terminal illness. and he managed to wave to all of us before we went. and i couldn't stand it so i cried. and so did my cousin. the relatives' hospitality totally shocked us. they were sooooo nice to us that we didn't know how to repay them in the near future when they visit s'pore. we took a train there in the midnight and took a train back. the trip back from the city to bei jing was really an unforgettable one. the seats were at 90 degrees upright position, we were seated with all the china locals, everybody stared at us like as though we were martianic elements, and the duration of the trip were as "short" as 8 hours. the adults were soo pissed that they took pictures of the many scenes of the train and wanted to complain to the tour agency in s'pore. but we had fun in there. even the officials said that it was his first time he saw us, foreigners, on board. ytd's aeroplane food was nice! and there was even ice cream la! wahahahaha! XD went shopping but all winter clothes. but still managed to get some jackets and boots. and wherever we go, there will sure be someone who say my younger sis is very pretty. it is due to her large, beady eyes. shared a hotel room with rachel and megan. and i was supposed to be the "head" of the room to take care of them, wake them up and be responsible for their things. but every morning when there is a morning call, i'll just ignore it. until my uncle come to our doorstep and knock the door, then we will wake up. coz it seems that ONLY i can hear the bell and the phone ring. 0.o therefore, we're always the last room to get ready and go for breakfast. =X beijing olympics next year. wanted to get some merchandise but too expensive. and i really don't understand my grandma. biased against some people and blah blah. whatever! soo happy to be back in singapore!! finally can have unsalted water for drinking. miss him badly. =( but got to talk to him a lil while on msn the first few nights. =X


and have to plan to go out with many people le. wahahha. next trip to indonesia to visit my grandma and relatives and shop with my sis!
