can you imagine how we actually survived 10 days there.
with horrible food and hygiene.so eww with people spitting everywhere anytime.
but anyway the 10 days wouldn't have been fun without esther natalie isabel valerie celeste junyi and sue ann(:

17th nov, day 1.
couldn't sleep the night before because afterall it's still my first time travelling alone with friends.so yeah.
sat with man kit and isabel and we had ALOT of unglam photos.but nevermind.airplane food really is disgusting so i ate the rice only.
we got CHEATED like big time.cause there's actually a flight from SG to chongqing STRAIGHT.but NO, the teachers probably didn't want to waste money.so they made us fly to chengdu and board a bus to chongqing.which they actually said would take 4 hours but in the end took 6-7 hours.
and so we were totally dead tired and cheated.they faked our parents like merde.
left with my teacher and settled dow in our room and slept.house is especially nice:D

18th nov, day 2.
i missed church): and it was a sunday.we were at some land.land which was totally opposite of where i would go on sundays.and so it was sooo boring.i didn't see the point of making us travel so far to see rocks.like WOW.so anyway it was drizzling really heavily and we were all wet and stuff.lunch that day was gross.i ate plain rice with tofu.the eight of us were split and we sat with the guys that didn't make it better.nicson practically ate everything.like all the weird things.
it's very funny cause they always give us like ten dishes each meal.but only 1 or 2 dishes are edible.you'll get what i mean when i actually upload the photos.
headed to carrefour after and it was our first humane place.
then had dinner on a boat and there was a sign that said we had to pay charges for leftover food.so we were OMG.
then all the kiasu side of us displayed.sue ann provided a plastic bag to dump our leftover food.then we hid this whole bag under the table and went out to the deck for some scenery.and when we actually came back it was GONE.the junk was all GONE.
went back to our homes super late and slept(:we craved for SG'S sun so badly.

19th nov, day 3.
woke up shivering and with our teeth chattering.forced myself to crawl out of bed for first day of lessons.went for their assembly held every monday and it's very amazing how they can actually stand so still and quiet listening to announcements.
it's very freaky from a fairsian point of view.hahahaha.but they're nice.
lessons are easy to understand.because we roughly know what they're talking about.like refraction and reflection of light.their physics and bio and maths.yeah easier to understand then we thought.we had lots of free time at night so the girls came over to our house and talked.and i sent alison a birthday message from china!(:
i think our school should improvise on our time tables to 50mins one period then 10mins break.and work out a time for the eye exercise routine they do everyday.

20th nov, day 4.
went to class as usual.and we always happen to be late.for some reason.
left for lunch after that and had taiji lesson!OMG.it's so funny!
and i still remember the very first steps of the taiji routine thing.hahahh.so hilarious.we created names for the teachers.like TOUCHY WANG(chi) and PECKY WONG.i tell you chi is really so freaky.maybe it's HER form of concern but we really dont appreciate it.it's just scary.went for calligraphy class after that and i totally have no patience for that kind of thing.so not me.oh and i suffered a very very bad sore throat.then at night,we went to yi ke shu.it's called one tree we thought we were gonna enjoy the scenery under A TREE.
ghahhaha.so funny.i'll post the pictures some other time(:

21st nov, day 5.
we had IT class(: it was so exciting cause finally,computers(:
but i tell you it was so laggy i practically spent the whole time trying to load msn.argh.after that we skipped class and went back to our rooms.played cards with isabel man kit dome joshua and chris:D i'm a loser at bluff.
at night we were below our block since 8plus and we reached home at 11pm.
ran around school finsing natalie and alot of things happened.
so we sat there thinking with valerie till it was late late late.then we made a decision and went home to sleeeeppp(:

22nd nov, day 6.
sports day:D their sports day is really a BIG BIG BIG occasion.with
ALL the classes doing their parade arounf the field.their field is HUGE.it is like twice ours.or maybe thrice.i dont know.we went out for lunch that day and had steamboat.you know the ma la huo guo thing. i think it was one of the better meals we had during the whole trip cause the man was so nice to let us exchange those food we didn't eat into something else we prefer.like udon and dumplings.rushed back to school cause we were late.the teachers were stuck and they needed our help.hahahah.PECKY WANG AND MS TAI'S INNER JOKE.*winks*okayy!
left for rehearsal and performed after that.played basketball/captain's ball.the guys were staring at the skimpy girls do their dance.we spotted liu's twin and we named her jerldine liu(:coolio.

23rd nov, day 7.
the second day of sports day(:
we were not supposed to go but we went to give our presents hahha.so woke up early!
went to find chu san shi yi ban(sec3 class 11)and we saw fangjie chunhui pangmeng and all our buddies:D gao ying rocks omg.she's got 3rd place for long jump.how cool is that.and fangjie came in first for 800m and 400m run.WHOOSH.class 11 is the besttt!(:we wet shopping after that and i bought my heels(:celeste and i bought our strawberry bedroom slippers(: i'm trying to use them cause it's so hot here.i can't imagine wearing 3 or more layers in SG.after shopping we had macs for dinner!oh man we missed it so badly.and there,we found out that it was a BLUFF.A FAKE THING.we named ketchup.and celeste couldn't stop thinking about it.even until the time we went back.AHHAAH.

had breakfast and left for fairy mountain.i seriously hate the bus rides.the LONG AND DRAGGY bus rides.we took so super long to reach the place for lunch.LUNCH ONLY.and we had to sit with xuit and chi.how pathetic.then we took another LONGLONGLONG AND FREAKY AND CURVY bus ride up to some mountain to see ROCKS.AND OMG.this is exciting.i took the diaper ride across the longest river in the world man!beat that.hahahahah.it's freaky i have the pictures.haha.then we went for the cave walk.which was muddy and dim and full of stairs.our legs were already wobbly ever since we climed from the end of the diaper ride back up to the cave.that was ass.but anyway got out of that furnace after 1 hour and bussed AGAIN to the fairy mountain.freakishly cold there.and there was frost on the floor.dinner sucked.i ate rice and egg.cause the rest looked like mutated meat.settled down in the room and i roomed with val(: bathed and went for campfire which failed.hahah.rubik's cube fans were all at the one and only lamppost solving the cube and the rest were just lingering.then we went to this abandoned "HOUSE" to eat the lamb.i think yang is lamb if i'm not wrong.not me but them.it's so GROSSSS.omg how can they eat it.they were all PLUCKING the meat off the entire lamb.that stinked man.so celeste,sue ann and i sat there looking at the guys eat.YUCK.and jason totally enjoyed it wth.went back to our rooms and had a cup noodles gathering.celeste's hair exploded and she walked back to her room with her hood on.OHOHOH.and i felt SO SUPER BAD for leaving my cough medicine in my luggage cause shannon needed it so badly.plus we had nice HEATED beds to sleep that night.

25th nov, day 9.
whatever breakfast that was,i didn't eat cause it didn't look edible.checked out in the morning and went for horse riding, go-kart,dirt biking,the ball thingy and then we stopped by this place to buy wangwang.we survived our lunch on it.hahha.OH and joshua didn't do dirt-biking even though he wanted to cause he was saving his cash for shopping.so valerie suggested that we sponsor him.so natalie esther valerie and i chipped in to buy him a ticket.HAHAH.left that area and bussed back to city.which took millions of hours.then we had dinner at some foodcourt.wasn't nice so i ate the rice and mushrooms only.had THE WORST stomach ache ever after the sickening ice cream from macs.argh.and i bought another pair of heels:D whahha.i can't believe isabel didn't bargain.oh and i bought my watch(: haha.i couldn't remember what happen except for i kept sitting down cause it hurt so bad and that we took so longgg bargaining the watch for joshua's dad.went home to pack and get ready to leave.so i managed to SQUEEZE EVERYTHING in my luggage.FROM A HUGE HAND CARRY to my luggage.i can't believe it but anyway.then just when i zipped up my luggage the teacher(host) gave us two boxes of food to bring back.i was like OMG.BU YONG BU YONG.but she forced so yeah.then we took a picture with her and byebyes.oh her family came back during the weekend and her children is so cute!(: 3 yrs and 5yrs old.

26th nov, day 10.
teachers were LATE for breakfast.who were the ones who said they didn't wanna scold us for being late and emphasised so much that we MUST be in the canteen at 6.45?
WHO WHO WHO? and they were LATE.by like 45 minutes! we didn't care about them so we left for class.celeste and i didn't eat breakfast cause it was boring.i felt like puking.went for class and flag raising then went back home to bring our luggages down.last goodbyes to our host and we dragged our luggages down.poor valerie and her humongous luggage.then we rushed to sec3 class 11 to leave them a note.ten we slid it under the door and left.what a way to say goodbye huh.but they can't be excused out of class cause the teachers say we'll affect their lesson.even for 1 min.anyway we were late.left for the dumb train station which got me all pissed and fury and angry and blah.till i felt so homesick and emo and i screamed my lungs out for the damn teachers to come down and settle all the chaos.AND WHERE THE HECK WAS XUIT?at her seat stoning.i was so SICK.SO SICK of seeing her stuck up face and so sick of seeing poor ms tai and pecky wong always coming to solve things.WHY ON EARTH DID XUIT COME LR to spoil our mood during the entire trip.ARGH.plugged in my block-out-all-sounds earpiece and emo-ed.hahah.i hated xuit to the core that moment.they gave us bread for lunch which i accidentaly stepped on.bought cup noodles instead and ate that for lunch.walked 500m i think to the bus.which our luggage.and please know we were walking on the road with vehicles sweeping past our side.freakish.bussed to airport and plane was so fun(: exchanged seats with strangers so that i could sit with fairsians.played uno and exchanged seats with val.HAHAHAH.then i accidentaly slept at her seat.so she had to sit with yiwei.SORRY!
wasn't on purpose.oh and my stomach ached so badly.i craved for starbucks(: went to toilet halfway and got stuck inside cause someone fainted at the door locking me in.so waited for about 5-10mins before they moved his leg so it wouldn't block the door.count down with esther before touching down on our SINGAPORE LAND.omg it was SOSOO EXCITING(: like finally singapore.
waited for liu to come out but he got stuck at custom so his mum told my parents to go home first cause it'll take long.so yeah.
