My 3 weeks in Shang has been so tedious. I went to play badminton one morning with my cousin and ended up getting a fever. And then I was pretty much sick for the next 2 weeks... my face is currently still a sickly pale... and slightly green... lol.
I visited some nice places like Tong Lu (near hang zhou) and Xi Tang, this really nice.. 镇.. I don't think i've walked that much in my life... my legs were literally aching... and completely fatigued... but I got awesome photos. Speaking of which, I believe my ex-boifriend small compact canon, and my Body Shop Coconut body butter got taken off me at customs HAHAHA Oh well. 旧的不走,新的不来嘛~
Sean visited me once and I did the same, which was really nice, cause when you're in a completely foreign place, it's so welcoming to see a familiar face. Except that we both had flying fevers and semi delirious and like completely skin and bone cause we weren't eating and wallet completely depleted from spending shit on the completely efficient yet unreliable medical system - 400 freakin yuan for 3 days of IV antibiotics and panadol worked better at reducing my fever... not to mention all the herbs which made me vomit and not eat for a week. *angst angst* XD
One major disappointment was that NAN JING Rd was kinda disappointing... Shen Da Cheng.. the place that's widely famous for meat on skewers, 八宝粥, and spring rolls has been COMPLETELY transformed into something else... and they now sell glutenous rice products... T_T
上海书城.. the huge music/book store is gone too.
And of course, I shopped... but one of the earrings I bought is a bit deformed... and the flower petals keep falling off, and one's missing!! So annoyed.
总而言之满累的,但满开心的 =) 好久没有自己好好的玩一下。
