DAY 6 @ YUNNAN
Friday, March 18, 2011 @ 12:07 AM
Day 6!On day 6 we woke up fresh in the morning & went down to put our luggages. I didn't even take a last look at the hotel room, gosh. Then we went for breakfast, yayness! :D
Breakfast was quite okay, really. Potato wedges, fried rice, BEEEEEHOOOOOON, pastry, SAUSAGES, supersuper sweet glutinous rice... JUUUUICE! Yeah basically. Thennn I remember we were trying to get Swaati to eat. But she wouldn't. Bleh. So we were calling on Mr Goh. AGAIN. I think. But like, yeah. She refused to sit with us / eat. EVIL LA.
Okay then we went to the stone forest~ But I forgot what the entrance looked like. :/ OH, THE ENTRANCE WAS THIS ROAD THING. Wait, there wasn't even a real entrance. Okay then there was this staircase thingy leading up.
So prettaye <: LOL, so then there was this pond or lake thingy next to the staircase, where I took a picture of Gadi & Lily.
HAHAHA, SUCH A NICE SHOT <:
Okay & it was there that Mr Goh scolded us :/ "you girls ah, always like to walk SOOO slow, do you girls know that you're always the last? & ah, I realised you girls are always taking pictures while you walk. I tell you, no more of that nonsense from now on. If I catch you doing that, I will confiscate your camera."
& then we walked up the stairs thing. We were all in a bluegh mood. >: obviously 'cuz we got scolded right before the whole thing even started. -.- YEAH THEN WE GOT UP THE STEPS & IT'S LIKE, YEAH. UH HUH. We got to this... Shelter thing. Then we took a CLASS PHOTO~
They all ditched me, so I had to sit on the floor, & unexpectedly Mr Goh went to pose there. :/ OHWELLS. I set my camera's exposition thing higher so like, it kind of was really bright? Yeah.
Then we walked & walked down the steps, up the steps, left right left right lalala~
Basically this whole place was full of just walking & taking of many pictures which included individual shots with Mr Goh, many group shots, posing with the tour guides, posing under a fake cherry blossom tree & all that.
WuYan & I ~ :DD
Le Rock.
MY CURRENT DESKTOP BACKGROUND!
Us waiting for the rest of them as they SLOWLY STROLLLLLL~ Including Mr Goh -.-
Us with the tour guides! :DD you see the one on the left, he's the SUPER COOL LEO WITH AN AMERICAN-ISH ACCENT.
Under the fake cherry blossom tree! :DD
OH THENTHENTHEN, WE KEPT WALKING TO THE EXIT, THEN THE WIND WAS SO STRONG A GUY'S HAT FELL INTO THE WATERRR~
Not so clear but good enough~ <:
YEAH, THEN WE WENT TO EAT 过桥米线. Okay all I have to say is - if you wanna eat that, just go to the market & get fish beehoon. It's literally the same, just that the one you get at the market is probably not gonna have pork or fake ham, & it's definitely gonna be less oily.
OKAY, NOT SAYING THAT IT'S NOT GOOD, well it was nice, just that I expected something more...
ME POURING THE NOODLES + EVERYTHING ELSE IN, LOOKING LIKE I'M HOLDING THE CHOPSTICKS THE WRONG WAY, BUT ACTUALLY HOLDING IT LIKEABOSS.
Then there was this rice.. Roll thing which was really weird. It was served before the noodles were. So the below picture is how they don't get what's proportion.
ANYWAYS, yeah so that's what we ate & I forgot what else happened. Oh, Gadi was trying to mix Sprite & Coke, to make it look like she was drinking beer. But sadly it looked more like 凉茶 [in case you're reading this, Swaati, it's herbal tea]
Then we kind of kena scolded by the teachers. :/ or was this before lunch. AIYA THE SAME LA.
Anyways, we went to the WORLD HORTI-CULTURAL EXPO '99. OR SOMETHING.
YEAH. But there was nothing much, well, flowers I guess?
Then Leo was reallyreally nice, he told us that the way we were posing wouldn't capture the ... Essence of the place or something along that line [HELLO, 19 DAYS AGO YOU EXPECT ME TO REMEMBER CLEARLY AH.]. So he took it for us. 7 cameras, 2 times each.
Yupp~ then we basically just walked around, then went into this building, then like yeah. The only 2 interesting things there were:
Guess what it is xD
Cough.
YAY! Afterwards we went to this greenhouse. & we had to cross this pond thing with rocks & it looked really freaky so being the coward I am, I took 2 steps forward then I jumped back. SO THEN, HUIYI WAS REALLY NICE! She held onto me then she stepped in front of me while I followed her behind. So I got across safely :DD without having to "just fall into the water & at the most, come up green!" - quote Swaati.
But then I realised that there was another way -.- that Mr Goh was smart enough to take. UGH.
When we got across, there was this shop thing that sold those insect necklaces/pendant things? AIYA, DON'T KNOW HOW TO EXPLAIN SO I SHALL JUST POST A PICTURE:
Yeah. So Swaati/Gadi was there CHOOSING the pendants ohmy. She actually bought a few. Or 1. I forgot. ^^"
THEN WE, I THINK WE WENT AROUND THE PLACE, so we went into the Japan de. & we saw a hat that looks like this:
Don't ask me why.
UH, ACTUALLY we didn't do anything else... Other than walkwalkwalk. Then we walked back to the bus~ then went for dinner.
It was HEALTHY MUSHROOM HOTPOT! :D
So we arrived at this hotel, it looked quite weird but it was okay. We all thought it was our hotel for the next 2 days & we were like O________O cuz it was supposed to be better than the 1st two hotels. But HEY! It wasn't c: we just went there for dinner. Then there was this wedding thing & the bride & groom were... NOT VERY GREAT LOOKING, but they photoshopped them to look WOW. Won't post the picture though~
So dinner was like quite fun. Those waitresses pushed trolleys full of veggies xDD
Then all of the mushrooms were WILD mushrooms, so they had to cook & cook AND cook. The soup was unbearably NICE! IT WAS SO GOOD I COULD DIE. Then plus the crunchy little mushrooms. & then there were noooodlez~ I ate the most la HAHAHA. Cuz there was more, then they asked who wanted more. So of course I raised my hands :DD
THEN, there was this silhouette cut-out thing, that costed S$2. I didn't do, cuz I have one at homeee~ HAVE MY NAME ON IT SOMEMORE. But Swaati & Christi did. HAHAHA, ON THAT GUY'S PANTS WAS... The word "NAKED". I wonder why. OHWELLS.
OKAY THEN AFTER THAT CAME THE FUN PART. AHAHAHA, SO we went to shop! :DD
We had to meet outside this shopping centre thing, & we were told to speak in chinese so no one would know we were foreigners xD I HAD THE BEST CHINESE ACCENT MAN (Y) okay anyways. We all linked hands, like 3 people in front, 4 behind. The 4 were USUALLY the taller ones. So it's like, Swaati, Christi & Michelle in front, Sherri, YuQing, WuYan & I behind xDD Okay, so the first thing the 7 of us did was... To go find a toilet -.- so we went around the whole mall, just to find that it was on the 2nd level. Then we went up, looked again, then we found the sign that said it was on the 3rd floor -.- LOL.
Afterwards we left the mall & went to like shop around... Like slowly stroll & all that. Won't go into details, & I didn't bring my camera along cuz it wouldn't be safe. So we went around, and we saw this Snoopy store thing. That's where we saw Mr Goh, Ms Tan & Mdm Lim. They were laughing at us cuz we were linking hands & then the first person on the left literally ran into the store & we all got pulled in -.- But in the end the stuff was too ex. Thenthenthen we went into a Breadtalk store, LOLOL, & we got this small HelloKitty cake thing, which only cost S$2.40. :DD
Okay we kept walking further & further... Then we went into this clothes storeeee.
It was a lot like Giordano/Bossini. So we decided to get something from that store that would be like a "class" sort of thing. But we didn't know what & we were running out of time, so we kept walking.
THENN, we went to this little pasarmalam place, where Swaati got headphones. S$8 onlyy! But I didn't get it cuz I was afraid of the quality.
Then we realised we had like, 20minutes left. So we CHIONGGGGED back to the store. We decided to get like a shirt, then there was this offer where ever 3 shirts purchased, we'd get 30% off or something. So we went to 3rd level of the store, where we saw 3 other teachers. So we weren't that flustered, since THEY were still there.
The 3rd level had all not-so-cute/pretty clothes, & they were all short sleeved -.- we wanted to get short sleeved ones so we could wear them on the outside & wear something else inside. So we went down to the 1st level again :D
We had to 分工合作 & look for clothes, so WuYan & I went to the inside part of the store, where I found this really cute shirt :D there were only 3 pieces, but I asked the whole class anyway.
In the end, we all got shirts of like different colours xD like Christi, YuQing & I got pink, Michelle, WuYan & Swaati got yellow, Sherri got purple. Sherri was the only one la but IT'S OKAY, BECAUSE WE DIDN'T MAKE HER FEEL LEFT OUT <:
& then we went to the cashier. The store promoter person gave us like 15% of lehs. But then the guy at the counter was like, don't have discount cuz it's not long sleeved shirt -.-
Then he asked us what language we were speaking, LOL. When he said we were speaking English, he was like WAH! & then he turned to mumble something to the other cashier guy. Which was weird. So then 5 of us paid 500RMB, well YuQing paid more la, cuz she bought another shirt for her sister. Yeah then the guy was slowly folding the shirt, like really neatly. So we were going crazy cuz already 9PM, the time we were supposed to gather. So we were like "不用折了！我们赶时间！“ we said it in a friendly manner la, then he like don't understand liddat -.- keep folding, then we kept "screaming", & he finally dumped them into the bag & sealed it. Then I grabbed the first bag, someone else grabbed the second bag & we ran like madwomen.
WE REACHED JUST ON TIME! :DD
All Mr Goh bought was chinese medicine, dk for who -.- LOL THEN WE WERE LIKE, HEYYY WE BOUGHT A "CLASS TEEEE~" & we said we'd be wearing it the next day. So he was like "GOOOOD! THEN EASIER TO SPOT ALL OF YOU ALREADY." :DD
Okay then we went back to the hotel. It's like, we expected it to be like really nice, so we were in the middle of 2 hotels, we were thinking it'd be the nicer one on the right. But NO, IT WAS THE SUPER ULU & DISGUSTING LOOKING ONE ON THE LEFT. So we all went like HUHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
Okay then we got to our rooms, & it wasn't that bad wor! It was really BIIIIG. But it wasn't as nice as the 1st hotel.
We were stuck next to Mdm Lim & Ms Tan.
Not my point. Anyways, we realised that we couldn't on that shower thing. I mean, it came out of the tap, but not our of that bigbig idk, SHOWERING THING, YEAH. LOL SO LIKE YEAHH, then Swaati came over. & then she had a torchlight with her. So we told her about our "problem", then we went to ask Mdm Lim & Ms Tan about it.
We rang the doorbell like 5 times before they finally opened the door. Then Mdm Lim was in shorts which was... Weird. Anyways, they said they'd call the hotel guy to come & fix the thing cuz they didn't know how to either. So we went back.
Then Swaati tried to fix the thing xDD
HAHAHA.
I almost died laughing man. She looked so hilarious, then I started laughing, along with WuYan. So hard that Swaati started laughing too & she almost fell off xDD
Haha, then I eventually gave up & went to bathe. Yes I bathed with the stupid little tap thing as shown in picture number 2 of Swaati's epicness. But eventually I did it la. :DD
So then I came out of the shower, then I went to pack my stuff, then Mr Goh came to do room check. Oh by that time, Swaati left already ):
Then I told Mr Goh about the problem, AND ALL HE DID WAS ON THE THING ON FULL BLAST, PULL THE KNOB & WATER CAME OUT. Dammit -.- & I juuuust bathed you know. ;^;
OHH, SWAATI LEFT HER TORCHLIGHT IN OUR ROOM XDD
Okay then WuYan went to bathe while I made supper. Which is - 3 IN 1 OATMEAL WITH 3 IN 1 MILO. RATIO: 2 : 1 RESPECTIVELY. I SWEAR IT'S AWESOME.
Below is the making method:
Yes then we shared 1 cup noodles. :DD AIYA WE ALWAYS HAVE A LOT OF FOOD, considering how WuYan brought one whole HelloKitty luggage just for food. AHAHAHA.
Okay, then we went to sleep! :DD
The end.
