~ On mY tRaveLLinG shOeS part II~

@ ShangHai


I still object that I was not the one who instead of bringing sunshine from BKK but rain and cold instead. Despite the fact that it was raining the first day i arrived in Shenzhen, Shanghai, Macau and the 2nd day in HK, still it can't be proven that i was the one. I am defending myself on this.

It is pretty wonderful weekend, i may say.





Despite the rain and windy cool weather, i like the city for the first glance. It is really a modern one. (eventhough Jay said that once you stay long enough, you might not like it anymore) Anyway, to meet up again with Triin, Jay and Leng Sui is more than anything.

Have you ever experienced the pleasure of talking in the same language with the person who share the same interest with you? If yes, i would say you have been blessed. I am!! It's incredible to know and find out that we share a lot in the same interest. Movie, book, song, perspective, ideas, opinion and many more. It's really been a big while that i have found a friend who share this same interest with. I was so glad, happy... incredible feeling. You feel so high without taking any. It's better than drug or any alcohol. Thanks so much Triin ;-)




With Triin and Leng Sui (after Yeelui said that i should have the photo that look like i am in China)

Hi love,

It has been a week now so i guess i can't do any longer prolong this post.
As many of you might already, i was putting on my travelling shoes again. To tell you the truth, it's really a good ole feeling indeed.
It's all started with the question 'Hey when will u coming? Wanna go to ShangHai together?' Thanks to Yeelui for that.
Here is the following of that, BKK-HK-Shenzhen-Shanghai-Shenzhen-Macau-HK-BKK

1st thing 1st, the new airport of Bangkok is fabulous. Eventhough there are many gossip that the airport is not ready, it's not good and so on.
My habit of loving something news and modern takes over its place. It's pretty beautiful and irresistable not to shop.

First stop - Shenzhen

My delayed flight of Gulf Air made me arrived in ShenZhen at Lau Hu train station later than i was expected which later on i feel good about it.
While waiting for Yeelui to fetch me, my 1st impression of this city is that Chinese is really addicted to smoking.
Oh my Gosh!! It's everywhere!! It's too much that i need to walk away from the open area to seek for tree or more open air.

It's super cool, more than cool. It's just hard to put the word in this.
It's the feeling of meeting your best friend again after the long while.
Yes, we msn. Yes, we phone. Yes, we skype. Still, nothing beats the old fashion way of face-to-face.
Non-stop talking, shouting, eating, laughing, day-night, night-day.
Weaw- Travel, Yeelui - Work. haha ;-)

Shenzhen:
- Stay: Free-Trade Zone
- Visit: Splendid China, Starbuck, Shopping Mall, Night market, Tesco Lotus, Spa
- Food: Anything but Shenzhen food
- Vehicle: Train, Bus, MRT, Taxi, Plane, Ferry

Funny note:
- Their lunch break at 12.00 - 13.30 = 1 hr of lunch, 1/2 hr of taking a nap. (Student, Blue collar, Worker, everyone!!)
- Kids get dropped off at home for lunch break and picked up afterward.
- Business means business no matter what time it is. We have visitors come to see the apartment at 15 mins past midnight!! And if they are interested they will not get the room before April next year.
- Glad to join in the moment with 3 chinese men of their first time in elavator.
- Happy to be an alien to amuse people there and a chance for them to practice their staring skills.
- First time to see a person actually picking the food from the gabbage bin
- I like Gulf air. Arab Flight attendant (No Mandarin) vs Chinese passengers (No English)
