we had to wake up at 7 to go for class which was supposed to start at 8.15 as we girls have to walk super far to the classroom which is like just beside the guy's dorms. we waited so long for the com to start but in the end it didn't work so we had to walk back to the history department building for our Chinese Culture class which is like a few stones throw away from the girls' dorms.

in the end there was another technical fault so our class was postponed to afternoon at 2.30pm
so we were free for the day. so we went to the market to buy some stuff again. i think we're like a common face there already. can like become a member there already. together with all the other china students. haha!




while on our way to the underground market this grandma was sitting outside in the cold alone. i promised myself i would take a photo with an senior citizen here so here it is! :) she hugged me and i was like woah! ok! so cute ah this aunty. then kit kang qi and amanda took a photo with her too. amanda said she tap heoulder really solid hard. maybe it's cos i had my fluffy jacket on so i didn't feel a thing. haha! i will remember her for life :D

on the way back to our dorms kit and kang qi bought bubble tea milk tea which i didn't like at all cos it tasted wierd but they liked it and they bought it again later in the evening.


and this was when we saw the cute little baby girl at the bubble tea shop. dont you just wanna hug her. she knows how to bow as in like to say thank you.

one thing i've learnt about amanda. she hates cats too. haha. but at least i dare to go near it. ok not really near, this is a zoom-ed picture.










the rest were eating road side food which they claimed is nice. ah well. and aziz found out that the bubble tea shop sells halal fast food. MY SUFFERING DAYS ARE OVER! HAHAHA! how to lose weight you tell me.




so we went back to our dorms in the end we blogged and updated our blogs since we havent been doing so for the past few days.







so we went for lunch with the guys at a halal restaurant in campus which fariz found. we had beef banmian which is like really different from what they have back in Singapore. as in taste wise. nevertheless. NICE!






the guys came over to our dorm an used our internet since they dont have ny at their dorms. while enjoying the priviledge, we went to cook dinner. we had pasta which we bought from the wallmart and pasta tomato sauce which i brought from Singapore. it was a really awesome dinner :) no burnt smell whatsoever. (looks at amanda, haha!)


end of day 4 :)

the weather was better. it was 5 to 12 degrees. its a sign spring is coming :)
unfortunately it means, there's no more snow D:

some ladies chilling at the park playing cards. there were also woman knitting in the cold. i think they were waiting for their children to finish primary school which is like just opposite the park.

so many beggers along the streets, very sad for them D:
there was a begger who persistantly asked people to donate to her and like she'll follow you all the way whereever you go eventhough you refuse so many times. only shakeh and jonathan donated once and like she still followed them after that to ask for more. btw they spent 140 yuan on chocolates. and there were only 7 pieces? they were cheated. haha



we woke up at 1 in the afternoon and went to town. we're ool people like that. i think we were the latest to wake up. we went to buy our groceries and daily necessities like wang wang biscuits, loads of food for cooking, our cooking pot and etc.



the two best friends! omg so cute. i love them. they were super friendly and very smart. i like the way the one with the ponytail draws on the concrete pillar.


amanda cooked this for dinner. does it look like a success? you decide. haha.
ok i've got to ive her credit for taking up the challenged of cooking eventhough the bottom of the pot was burnt and it stinked up the whole floor of dorms. but its ok. we still love you amanda :) so the rest of the girls ate peanut conggi while me and kit ate our mee suah with soup. it was an awesome success cos aqilah cooked it. haha! kidding. nah it was cos of the chicken stock and soup is like real easy to cook. so yeah. oh and we had chicken dumplings as well which the agnes gang bought for us to share.

the kitchen wasn't what we expected as in it had wierd smells cometimes cos of the many foreign food stored in the fridge and whatever in the world they cook in there but still, it is pretty much decent and clean at times. we're contented as long as we can cook dinner ourselves and save on spending on outside food.
