Annabel twenty five and full of life. Oscar Wilde taught her that she can resist everything, except temptation.

I believe.

Exploration

Thursday, November 27, 2008

My fingers have lost its feelings.
My neck,arms,fingers,legs and feet no longer sees the light.
The necklaces i brought and bought are being kept in the drawer, away from the light.
As the temperature drops, I pile on the layers(hopefully not the kilos!) and dressing up seems like a chore.
I lost the urge to dress up because no matter what top I am wearing or what necklace i am draping around my neck, it gets hidden under the turtleneck/sweater/coat i am wearing.

All dressed-up in TWO eskimo-ish winter coat - things only Liwen will do

And since i am in cheena-land, no matter how badly we dress, we somehow look better than most of them. Even though we may have the exact piece, but the juxtaposition is great.
Maybe it's the hair, or the look or the language.
Maybe it's the culture because...
Singaporeans do not go "gurrrggghhh...PUI!" anywhere and anyhow.
Singaporeans that carry fake Gucci bags, chooses ones with double G logo and not double E.
Singaporeans say "Excuse me" when you are blocking their way instead of SHOVING through.
Singaporeans say "Thank you" when appreciation is due.

So even if you are all decked out in expensive wear, you still look like crap with the spit marks you left with each foot forward.

Went off to 黄鹤楼(Yellow Crane Tower) with Lynnette, Liwen and roomie since it was located in our vicinity. It was supposed to be a bigger group of us going but the aeroplane came and took them away. The Yellow Crane Tower has a long history and was built during the Three Kingdoms era, A.D.223. Thank goodness we chose to come on a weekday because there wasn't much of a crowd and tour groups were few and far between.

The entrance fee was a mere 25RMB because we had 50% Student Discount. While at the entrance barricade, the guard wanted to check my student ID and nodded in approvement when he saw that i was from CCNU and Singapore. "CCNU, good school." I felt so proud that my flat chest puffed out and was not flat, for that moment.

There are a few thousand universities in China and CCNU is ranked at 30ish nationwide.
In Wuhan, other than Wuhan University which is directly opposite us, we are Number 2. =)
So, although NP sent us to a ~~shitty~~ place as guinea pigs, at least we have comfy hostel to live in and a good reputable school to study in.

Mingxiu can never achieve the No.10 point just like how the locals fail at No.1.

The only time i can do monkey things to China's "God".
My initial plan was to stick a finger up his nose
but I think shop's photograph will probably stick her finger into my eye
if i did that.
