jos! jos! jos!

shanghai waaaasssssss.. amazing!! :O) good good shopping… good partying scene….. lots of interesting architecture to see (geez they look like they just pop right out of bantam comic books!) knocked me right out when i came home.. 11 hours of sleep hehehe… who can blame you with a schedule like ours…

waking up at 10 am.. into the shower.. dress up ready for ‘war’ comfie walking shoes, t-shirt jeans & a slouch bag that looks small but can fit the world in it including my bulky semi auto (camera not the fire arm :OP)..

out for lunch..

and then start the MARATHON around the city.. through one shopping places to another.. fighting your way through people people and MORE people man there are lots of them people over there!! pausing for a quick rummage through numerous brightcolourful things that include anything you could possibly think of, and then on with the price wrestling.. down to 25% of offerred price you should. hold on and pretend to walk off.. you’ll BE called back hehehhe.. gosh my miserable mandarin did improve there (hey crucial to bargain stuff!!) well at least my shopping vocabulary *grinz* how much.. what colour do they come in? do you have a new piece? that’s expensive!! don’t cheat me.. bill please.. etc etc and this goes on…. until darkness falls over the city……

ard 9 it’s back home to this lovely modern modern service apartment we rent around fudan university.. get home, change and out to dinner!! eeksss late dinner i know.. and man it’s often baaadddd baaaddddd food too…. goat meet!! on huge wooden skewers or stri fried in lots of oil! and to top it off tsing tao beer for beverage… yes yes all my jeans and i mean ALL my jeans are tight now…

after dinner it’s off to the city again! for a night of partying… the partying scene ain’t too bad… most of it made of foreigners… DJ sasha was there last week… just too bad my friends chose another club that night… yep good partying.. well of course it’s the company too *winkz*

by the time i hit the sack it’ll be 4 am…..

and the cycle goes on *grinz*

so yes shanghai was amazing…. loving it there i might consider even working there in the future if i have the chance….. the only downside.. it’s still dirty.. dirtyy… diiirrttyyyy…. the air’s dusty and damp (at least while we were there.. it rained now and then).. the toilet smelly hehehehe…. but would you believe me if i say the underground is better than the one in sydney! and the buses too!! so yes shanghai is very very modern.. incredible spurt of growth in the last 10 yrs….

all in all i thoroughly enjoyed shanghai.. never had so much fun visiting a place before… it’s all thanks to the best guide in the world ofcourse.. our dearest diana… and a good easy going enthusiastic travelling partner, agnes :O) we should really do this again sometime

*grinz*

what a break it was……

ps: photos cming up.. too lazy to load ‘em right now hehe….
