I AM HOME!!!!!!!!!
hahaha. actually i was home quite some time ago, reached singapore about 730 last night, just couldn't find the time to update!
so about my trip! i went to: nanjing, wuxi (i've never heard of it before this either), suzhou, hangzhou, shanghai. the trip was very ULTRA fun. its amazing how pretty and scenic the place is. especially hangzhou and suzhou. they have a phrase there, it goes shang you tian tang, xia you su hang so you can imagine how pretty the place must be! but it was quite cold there. i tell you if anybody sweats there, they must be abnormal. nanjing and shanghai are very modern. i was surprised at how much they look like singapore(other than the fact that everything is in chinese). and NO there are no toilets without doors there. seriously. you'll be astonished at how much they've progressed in the past few years. but! a minus point is that their food there is ermm not very impressive. i mean afterall who wouldn't expect china to have yummylicious food! they've served emperors for goodness sake! then again, according to james the tour guide, we haven't tried the nicest food yet. so maybe one day i'll join a tour group that does nothing but eat and try all the yummy food! haha excited!
yeah well another thing that touched me alot was when i was returning to singapore. when we arrived at the airport it was already dark, but it was BEAUTIFUL i tell you. the skyline is absolutely ROMANTIC!!! words cannot do justice to how pretty it was. its the kind of thing you must see yourself to know what i mean! so right if you guys go overseas, try to get a night flight back. or at least one that arrives in the night! haha!
i can't wait for the first day of school! crazy right! but seriously i'm excited at the prospect of making new friends and playing at orientation and joining a new cca! haha!
