second day. went to school. okeh my buddy is damn beautiful lah. haha. then all of them kept trying to pair me up with her. okayyy. no comment. had physics, math, biology and& music. they're only sec2 but they're learning what our sec3 is learning! gosh. okay so made some new friends. really nice people. went to baotu spring and shopping centre. we ended up going to macd and shopping for food for supper at the hotel room. haha!
third day. geography, math, pe and it. pe was damn fun! even though i was wearing 5 layers of clothing, no matter how much i ran, i still couldn't perspire! haha. i didn't even feel tired. see? that's the advantage of the cold weather. played skipping and& many friends pulled us in to join them. went to black tiger spring after school.
fourth day. math, it and& biology. made many more new friends through english. they were really fascinated that we could speak english fluently. the dude behind me asked me to help him with his work. haha. all of them were like telling me not to help him. then when he wanted to teach me a vulgar in chinese, all of them kept slapping and& whacking him. this was how the convo went. translated to english.
him: i teach you something. follow and& repeat what i say. Wang.
me: wang.
him: ba.

then all of his friends just started laughing at him because he got so embarrassed. haha. it was so funny.

sixth day. visited confucius village. learnt a lot of the history. walked so much and& was so tired by the end of the day. left qufu and& headed for taian. checked into taishan hotel.
seventh day. wore 6 layers because gona climb mount taishan that day. it was 1545m high. damn. haha. took bus and& then cable car. then started the climb. the steps were freaking steep and& close to one another. worse thing, i was afraid of heights. urgh. there were so many flights of stairs. we managed to reach the peak. it was super freezing cold up there! wind was so strong. felt tired. went down and& headed to qingdao after lunch. by the express train!
eighth and& nineth day. it was starting to get warmer. used only like 3 layers. haha. went around the places there and& took loads of pictures. didn't feel like leaving china. enjoyed this trip and& totally didn't regret coming here. we had so much fun and& experience. didn't expect china to be this awesome. tour guide was really nice to us.
oh and& we always had restaurant food for lunch and& dinner! it was super awesome. breakfast was always buffet. haha.
now for the night sleepovers. eli, deborah, cindy, hoyang, shanel, yangchung and& me. haha. when we were not tired, we would go to either of our rooms and& have a sleepover. sleeping beside deborah! urgh! she keeps snatching away the blanket! so mean. cindy and& hoyang were alright to sleep beside. me and& yangchung were always drinking beer or whiskey. haha. got super drunk one night and& next morning had a hangover in school. head was super painful. oh and& deborah keeps talking about my habit of rubbing my foot on someone else's foot. i did that to hers when i was asleep apparently. haha. and& she said me and& yangchung made a great snoring orchestra. our snoring after we drink everytime was always so synchronised. haha.
