HEY PEEPS, I'M BACK!!!!! MISS ME YEA? My post is gonna be quite long so i am jus going to break it up. Pictures hav to wait cuz i haven transfer into my com.. Haha.

• DAY 1- [Hotel: Jin Xiu Yuan Hotel. Room number: 5106] Took plane SQ 826 to Shanghai. Reached Shanghai at about 1 plus. Took bus with 2 pretty tourguides, wanted to visit Shanghai National Museum but due to lack of time, we did not visit the museum. Instead, we went to a famous tourists' attraction, SHANGHAI TAN. On the way there, we tried a yoghurt drink, made in china. HAHAHA. Quite nice.. After that, we went to a restaurant to have our dinner.. I ate the whole plate of VEGETABLES, thanks to Hwee Pin. Haha. In the end, we wasted quite a lot of food.. Too much.. After dinner, made our way to SHANGHAI Hong Qiao Airport for our domestic flight to Qing Dao. Reached there at about 7.30pm. We quickly checked in and were given some time to shop. Patronised a shop selling BEIJING 2008 OLYMPICS items. I spent RMB 301 there!! About 2hrs later, we board the plane, FM9233. [We were delayed for about 1hr.] After boarding the plane, we still had to wait for about 20mins before we flew. The plane's ventilation was REAL BAD. No air-con! I was breathless and experienced chest-tightness.. Moreover, as we flew, the turbulence was bad too. The plane jerked so badly. At one point, it was so bad that many screamed when the plane nearly 'dropped'. We were relieved when the plane finally landed. Took the bus with our tour-guide, Kong Jun[73th descendant of Kong Zi, according to him] to our hotel for the next 2 nights. Reached the hotel at about 12plus. The room was GOOD! Even had a HD Tv! Haha. Toilet even had a bath-tub. Quickly bath, watched TV and slept..
• DAY 2- Woke up at 7am, had breakfast at 7.30am and departed at 8am. Had breakfast with Ms Soo, Ms Low and Ms Koh.. I was VERY SCARED of Ms Soo.. Haha.. Took some pictures of the magnificant view. Took a 1hr plus bus ride to LAOSHAN. I slept all the way there bcoz i was sick.. There, we toured the whole of LAOSHAN. Played and joked around with Ms Low and Ms Koh.. Haha. Then, we left at about 11 plus for lunch at a local restaurant. The food was not very nice.. ><
• DAY 3- [Hotel: Min Ya Hotel. Room number: 111] Woke up at 6.55am. Prepared, went for breakfast. Departed for the 6hr bud ride to QUFU. Again, i slept most of the time there. Stopped for ONE toilet break. The toilets were SMELLY! When we reached Qufu, our buttocks were numbed. MAO YAN.. Immediately went for lunch bcoz we were SO SO SO hungry. After lunch, we went to our hotel for that night. The hotel was *(&%&amp;*%(*^&$%#&^%!!! Small and dirty. I EVEN FOUND A USED CONDOM IN MY ROOM!!! EEEKS. We had free time till 6pm, so i did some homework with Hazel and Pawita. Then, we went for dinner. Again, [layed and joked around with Ms Koh, Ms Low and Ms Soo. Ms Soo let us guess some teachers who sang for the Teacher's Day concert. Watch some sort of a musical, XIN TAN SHENG MENG. I expected it to be boring but it turned out to be WONDERFUL! I was careless enuff to leave my digi cam in the hotel room.. +.+ Returned to the hotel at about 10 plus. Watched GOONG and did my journal. There was even FULL HOUSE and TOKYO JULIET.. Although the hotel was dirty but it did have some marvellous TV programmes though. HAHA. 6 ppl came to my room to sleep that night. Hazel was scared. She found a towel STAINED with BLOOD. Beryl and Joanne came too. Then, there was a BLACKOUT. Scared the wits out of many girls. Ms Low was BATHING HALFWAY.. She came out wrapped in TOWEL ONLY. HAHAHA. I even got a electric shock!!!! My whole body was numb and painful for the whole day..
• DAY 4- [Hotel: Long Hai Hotel. Room number: 210] Woke up at 6 plus. Had breakfast and departed. Visited the SAN KONG.

Bought my dad a bracelet, bless him. Went for dinner after reaching, checked-in the hotel after dinner. Went Hwee Pin's room for supper of CUP NOODLES. Haha. We even watched HUA YANG SHAO NIAN SHAO NU! Haha. Played with HP and Steph, first time i saw Pawita so mad! Haha. Tired, we slept at 12 plus..
• DAY 5- [Hotel: Huang Tai Hotel. Room number: 1112] Woke up the usual time, had breakfast. Took mini-bus up the middle of Mt.TAISHAN. Jorney was bumpy, like ROLLER COASTER. Waited for more than 1/2 hr for the cable car but did not get to sit it bcoz of the strong winds. Ms Koh treated us to ice cream. Haha. RMB 3 each. Haha. Bought myself a sunglass. Climbed up the TAISHAN. Knee ached as i climbed. After we climbed to a certain height, we descended. Took pictures of the WONDERFUL, MARVELLOUS, MAGNIFICANT view along the way. Jun Rong helped me carry my bag.. Thks. It was cooling up TAISHAN. Haha. After that, we went for lunch. By then, i was FRIENDS with Ms Soo. Joked around with her and all. Haha. After lunch, visited PEARL factory. Bought my mum some pearl cream. Then, 1.5hr bus ride to Jinan, as usual, slept all the way too. Haha. Even dropped my glasses. Haha. Visited QUANCHENG PLAZA, BOTU SPRING and DAMING LAKE. At the DAMING LAKE, we took a monorail bcoz we were LAZY. Haha. Dinner was a DUMPLING FEAST. LAUGH THE WHOLE DINNER with my silly actions and silly jokes. Made Ms Soo LAUGH LAUGH LAUGH. Haha. MY new friend-MS SOO. Haha. Hotel was quite pleasant. Went to Ms Koh and Ms Low's room, helped them MASSAGE. Ms Koh HELPED ME MASSAGED!!! I helped Ms Low massaged. Haha. Pawita helped all of us massaged. Haha. Mus thank Ms Low and Mdm Ng for helping us iron our uniforms..
• DAY 6- Woke up at 6am. Prepared, wore uniform, VERY VERY UNCOMFORTABLE. At 7am sharp, departed for JINAN HUIWEN EXPERIMENTAL SCHOOL. Before departing, Ms Soo checked our uniforms. Seemed so formal. Haha. Reached the school at about 7.20am. When i was alighting from the bus, I FELL DOWN!!! In front of 1500 plus pupils!! OMG. My legs jus turned jelly!! Haha. MALU. Paiseh. Joined them for their morning assembly. Got to know my buddy, YAN ZHAO. Nice girl, held my hand SO TIGHT, didnt let go of it. Haha. Attended 3 periods of their lessons. Math and Social Studies. Math taught in chinese, weird.. The students said i looked like a STAR! MING XING. Went to my buddy's house for lunch with Beryl and Shuet Jing and both their buddies. Her house was quite nice, cosy. Ate lunch with them. VERY FULL! Exchanged adddress and email address. Returned to school. Then, we were to visit a YOUTH PARK. As i was boarding the bus, I KNOCKED INTO A TREE! Stupid right?! Tried many obstacles at the youth park. Then, went to a APPLE PLANTATION. Plucked 4 apples. Went to 5-star hotel for dinner.. SHIOK!
• DAY 7 (second last day) - Woke up at 6.15am. Felt sick, my leg hurts. As usual, breakfast... Wore camp tee and long pants, COMFORTABLE. Took bus to the school. Again, 3 periods of lessons. Mother tongue, computer and math lessons. Their chinese lesson rocks! Totally different from ours. The teachers ask them to read a passage and asked a series of questions related to the passage. The pupils hav to find the answers themselves, the teachers whud then pick a few pupils to answer. The pupils jus stand up and answer without obligations. Their computer room was... Small. They had to wear sth to cover their shoes before entering the room. They are still using WINDOWS 98! The teacher left a DEEP IMPRESSION on me. Her hair looks like.... Haha. Their teacher control the mouse at the front, the pupils can see from their computers. COOL?! They dun browse the internet or play games, the jus listen attentively to the teacher. MY BUDDY ACTUALLY SHARE THE SAME BITRHDAY WITH ISABELLA 梁洛施!! The pupils chose to raise their hands to answer instead of letting the teacher pick them. Totally different from us. Saw their mass PE session. It was ohmyGAWD! The lines are straight. They even marched backed to their classes in straight rows! Went for another dumpling feast for lunch. This time, the dumplings were *(%^ $*^(* Wasted every plate. Went back to school, saw their 'CCA' Our boys had a friendly match against their boys. We lost. Haha, but it was a good game. Then, we had to bade farewell to our buddies. I cried like hell. First time i ever cried like this. I guess Ms Low mus be shocked. Haha. I duno why but tears jus flow out. Haha. Then, we visited HUANG HE, Mother River. I walked all the way up again, limping. Then, took pictures of the wonderful scenery. Took a mini van down with Ms Soo, Ms Low and Mdm Ng, with some of the teachers in JINAN HUIWEN EXPERIMENTAL SCHOOL. Went to same 5-star hotel. Reached there earlier than the rest. Haha. AGAIN, WE FEASTED! Haha. Thanked the teachers in JINAN HUIWEN EXPERIMENTAL SCHOOL profusely and bade farewell. Returned to hotel. As it was the last night, Ms Soo allowed us to sleep late. Watched TV, ate supper and played billard/pool with Ms Koh and some of the guys. Returned to room at about 12am, bathed. Initially wanted to sleep late but my eyes were so heavy that i jus slept. Haha. The next morning, while i was still sleeping, Ms Koh and Ms Low came into our room, they saw my UGLY side. Haha. Then i remembered that i didnt went to help Ms Soo massage as promised. Felt to bad. I totally forgot about it. Sorry Ms Soo! Had our last breakfast together, took bus to Jinan Airport. Jinan airport, quite new. Checked-in and bade farewell to our tour guide. Took plane SC 1163 to Shanghai. I had the window seat. Haha. Took some marvellous pictures of the clouds. Reached Shanghai at about 1 plus. Went for lunch. Reached the reataurant at about 3.45 due to major traffic jam. Ms Soo went with her brother for lunch i think?! At 4.30, made our way to SHANGHAI PUDONG AIRPORT. Reached there at about 5.30pm. Checked-in and made our way to the departure hall. Yu Lan was barred and Ms Low had to stay with her. She forgot to bring sth. She was barred on the first day already, jus that it was not so serious. Time was running out, Ms Koh brought the rest to the gate where our plane was. I was with Ms Soo, Mdm Ng and her daughter. We were praying hard that Yu Lan and Ms Low whud come out. Unfortunately, they didnt. They were calling for us to board, i ran all the way from one end to the other, so SUAY our gate was the furthest. So, all of us board our plane SQ 827, without Ms Low and Yu Lan. We were so worried. When we reached Singapore, Ms Soo told us Ms Low and Yu Lan were on the next flight, on the way back to Singapore. We all heaved a sigh of relieve. Went to collect our luggages and met my parents. SO HAPPY to see my family. Missed them, my bolster and my bed!! Haha. Made our way home. Opened presents... I bathed and went to sleep. TOO TIRED. 2DAYS TO SCHOOL RE-OPEN! Homework still not done!!! Haiz. Gotta rush! CYA guys on MONDAY!!
