| I'm in China right now.
Wow is all I have to say.
I think I've fallen in love again with my native country... This trip has been awesome so far and that's mainly becuase I went here without my silbings (just my dad...) Here's what I have done so far...
Day 1
I arrived in Beijing and went immediately to eat dinner with several friends. We went to a fancy restaurant that was 5 stories tall! That's right, the large 5 story complex was just a restaurant. It had over 100 private rooms and each private room is larger than a hotel room, complete with a TV, a private bathroom, sofas, meeting room, dining table (with gold fish in the center!), two personal attendants, a private kitchen, and an ornately decorated room with gold (fake I pressume) statues and pieces of furniture. Another amazing thing is that there was no menu to the restaurant. The entire first floor was the menu! That is.... all of the dishes that the restaurant serves is prepared daily and put on display. And with over 100 dishes, it suffices to say that logic can comprehend why the enitre first floor was the menu. Then, I went back to the hotel and slept.
Day 2
Woke up and realized I was in the Grand Hyatt Beijing, which is also amazing (5 Stars). The hotel is right above a gaint shopping center, so we ate breakfat there. I was so full from last night but I still had bf in the shopping center (the hotel costs way too much) however, we orded about 20 dishes last night (for 6 people) and only were able to finish like 10.... (talk about Chinese courtesy!) the Chinese bf I had today was the BEST in forever.... The best part was that it costed less than 2 dollars, cuz everything is cheap here. Then, we went around the shopping center and I went into a couple of brand stores including Burberry, Gucci, Versace, Valentino, Max Mara, and others. Oh yeah, I also went to the hotel gym early this morning, and let me add, the swimming pool there is AMAZING. To say at least, the pool rivals the beauty and style of an aciant Mayan temple. Then my dad had to see a client and I was bored for like 1 hour. Then, we went shopping for Christmas gifts... but I can't tell you what it is cuz then you'd know what I'm giving everyone when I get back home! (a hint: think about the shopping mall I went to earlier this morning ^___^)! Then, I went back to get a hair cut, which I have mixed feelings about. But before I explain... let me elaborate. So, American haircutters suck. Period. Asian ones rock. So, I went to get a hair cut and I set an appointment for one and I left two hours of time to do it since I wanted to watch a new Asian movie in the movie threatre at 8:50. I arrive at the haircutters (which is really quite fancy) at 6:30 and I start.... Guess what... the hair cut freaking took 3 hours! AHHHHH! Acutally, it was cool. I got my hair dyed and styled like a J-rock artist and got it treated. But uhh... it wasn't worth it cuz I missed the movie. Also, I can't speak Chinese well and they added to my bill without me realizing it (cuz they tricked me by putting this stuff in my hair....)! T____T The end cost is too embarassing to mention so ask me in private. Let's just say I will never uhave this kind of a hair cut again. Then, I went back to my room and slept like a rock.
Day 3
Blah, I leave for Chonxing now..... I am too lazy to explain stuff, I'm currently in the First Class lounge using the crappy internet so yeah. I also don't feel like writing anything now that I wrote so much above. So yeah. How goes everyone else? |
