Reali surprised to see desiree they all la. Haha:DD YAY. Okie..i had alot of fun during the ten days at chengdu and xi'an.. Hmm.. let me recall..

Day 01
we arrived at chengdu and went to visit the two streets, Chun Xi street and Jin Li street. Haha..i lyk spent 400 plus at this 2 places la. Wth. But i didn regret buying the stuffs la in fact i feel i should hav buy more. Lol. Okie the hotel at chengdu is rather small but nvm la iz onli for 1 day so nobody cares. Erm..the first 2 days at Chengdu my stomach not veri well so i didn reali eat alot..but good thing i brought the medicine that mum prepared and luckily the stomach unwellness stop when i reach xi'an. I didn eat anything tat night cos iz lyk free ans easy then theres no food that look safe at the jin li street so putting my weak stomach into consideration i didn buy anythin to eat. haha. OH the ENGLISH translation there veri FUNNY. Lyk for eg, there this food called 散子 a.k.a "distribute the son" WHAHAHAHAHA. >.<

Day 02
We went to visit the PANDAS!!! hahaha...oh man saw those harmless looking pandas eating bamboo and the wo wo tou( a food that looks lyk mooncake. p.s some of us bought it at xi'an at one 街haha.hmm taste okie, sweet but dry.haha ) The pandas r super cute la. And i didn noe pandas can climb trees! sialah they so heavy and i cant understand how the skinny branches can hold their weight. Hmm... Okie anywae took alot of photos.. Haha.

So its lyk damn cold and everyone is freezing while the officer tok and tok and tok and tok.. LOL. Sry to say but tats the most boring thing tat we went to during the whole trip. lol. The man was lyk flashing the ppt so fast and we can hardly jolt down the figures and stats. Plus, everythin is in chi and the man is lyk monotone so with the cold and uncomfortable environment we were all super bored there. :/ PLus my stomach still feels abit weird i reali feel lyk getting out of that place. lol. But anywae the man who is a govt officer nv answer to our qn one. mayb becos he cant say anythin thats politically wrong or he simply dun understand wat we asking. lol. his answers are lyk so erm not here not there. lol.
