11:49 PM

Finally met up with my dearies after so so long.
So happy!! Hehe.
Went Orchard to catch the movie,
Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium
Haha. Nice!
Could hear my dearies sniffing during some parts of the show.
Pretty cute show i must say.

U guys can try catching this enjoyable show!
It has been a long time since i watched movie la.
The last one i watched was Secret.
With my some of my fellow SMU friends.

After movies, we took neoprints! Haha.
SO SO SO long since i took prints with these 3 dearies of mine.
As usual, it was real fun as we took the prints and decorate them.
Hail Neoprint machines!
This invention bought many colourful moments in my lives with my friends.

All right. I am signing off now.
Too tired after the Man U match.
Yay. Man U won!!
So happy!!! Wee~
K la. Gotta go enjoy my ice cream before it all melts. Hehe.




































































































I love my dearies!!!

My horrible China Trip - Part 1 1:55 AM

Hey all!! I am back!
Haha. Been in China for 8 days and oh Boy!
I MISS SINGAPORE REAL BAD!!

Almost everything there sucks.
The toilet is
The food is yucky
The thieves there are notorious..
And the list carries on.


















From Left : Me, Sis, Mummy, Daddy and Bro

A family picture that we took there
Of course! That's one out of the 273 photos that we took of the entire journey
Haha. Before u start to think i am the one who is doing most of the cam-whoring
Let me clarify..
My Mummy has been the one who is in 3/4 of the 273 photos.
I tel u, she has been asking me to take shots of her at almost ALL locations can?
Alamak, now u noe how come I love the camera?
Confirmed guarantee plus chop inherit from my Mummy :P

















All right. Enough of the hustle and bustle of the popular XiMen Street shown here
The items sold here are all those traditional items of the various items
Nothing really interesting.
Cant expect me to buy T shirts with the dragon or the tiger and wear it to Orchard rite?
Plus my friends will slaughter me alive if i give them those
So i brought back mainly food items as gifts.
Aiyo, u guys better dun complain ar!
Even i myself have to be contended with food back frm China.
My luggage was bursting from its seams with all these goodies la!




















This waterfall pretty right?
I love this place the most.
Nice view with two or more waterfalls
This is the biggest there.
Super nice la.
The chilly weather there threatens to freeze me into ice cubes
I could have returned to Spore in one block of ice cube should i have brought less winter jackets there
Heng ah! Phew.

















Mountains and more mountains.
All these are wad Singapore lacks.
Oops. Let me correct myself.
Singapore does have small mountains - hills
Bukit Timah Hill and abit over at Bukit Batok's Xiao Guilin
But all these pale in comparison with the mountains over at China's Guilin
Real amazing, i have to admit.



















Throughout this journey, wad really caught my eye will be nevertheless..
Mountains, Waterfalls, Caves and the Natives.
Mixed variety of Natives there.
If i remember correctly..
There are the Zhuang, Yao, Miao and i dunno i dunno i dunno.
Cannot blame me. I was dozing off as the tour guide explains.

















After sitting 6 hours of bus ride, we reach this ulu ulu place which i dunno the name again
And then, we end up climbing and climbing and climbing to reach the top
















Mummy was among the first to reach the top and happily smile to me saying..
" Daughter, help Mummy take photos k? "
Vain pot hor? Lol.
Mummy happily posing for the camera as i control my laughter while taking this shot.

















From Left : Me, Keyi and YiHui

My two cousins and I
After much persistance from my mummy, we 3 took this shot
Mummy says it is for memory sake
Imagine having sit tru an excruciating 6 freaking hr of bus ride and then climbing
Still have to smile sweetly for the camera.
Haiz. I resigned to fate.
*white flag rising high up into the China air.





















I tel u, the kids there are real CUTE la.
The babies here are all chubby and smiley.
They hardly cry at all la.
Anyway, the old man in the pic is the grandpa
He is already 89 years old yet he is still healthy and strong.
Faint. Must be the air there super good and some magical herbs there.Lol






















This baby here is real kawai la.
He was munching on the biscuit that his grandma gave him
While munching, he was spitting out a few crumbs here and there
When i went forth to play with him, he even offer me his biscuit :P
So sweet right?
This kind of baby, i olso want!!
Haha. Holy, i am getting a bit too gaga over babies.





















Next up, is this adorable little girl
She was initially real shy and eating a sweet potato that her sis have dug out from the grounds
But after giving her some sweets and biscuits, she was real hyper and fun
Readily posing for me as i took her shots


















The Natives serve us our lunch.
Some kind of steamboat.
With mushroom, sweet potatos, chicken and a few meat

















From Left : Zheyu, bro, ah wee

How does it taste like?
Is it nice?
See the faces of my cousins and bro, u shld noe..
I want my Japanese Cuisine!!!

















To end off this entry, a picture of the 18 of us who have been there.
Less than 1/2 of the Teo family in China this time.
The rest are either in Spore or in some European countries.


Notice that most of us have grown sideways?
Haha. Though the food was super bad, somehow most of us manage to gain pounds

Must have been the long bus journeys after the meals
Super long can? The shortest bus journey was 5 hours la.
All our butts were "on fire" from the long hours of ride
Somemore have to wait for 2 hours plus before we can alight for toilet breaks
Make me endure the urge to urine

Dirty toilets make it super worse
Merely a drain with no doors
Piles of " gold" are all stacked in the drain as you attempt to pee la.
Yucks! As i blog this, i am trying very hard not to think abt the unsightly scenes of the toilet.

Tada~ Time to count sheep now.
Shall pose a few more entries of my horrible China trip soon.
Stay tuned for more photos!
