Shanghai

Its blogging time.. Just came back from Shanghai last night at 12am sharp and by the time I reached home, it was already 2am. Anyway, Shanghai is a wonderful city and it's really a place for work and love. =)))

21st September 2005

Decided to stay over at Janice and Rubee's dorm because of the morning flight the very next day. However, I didn't get to sleep because my dear old Rubee got drank from clubbing and I've got to take care of her from 2am till 330am... oh gosh!!! I've got to wake up at 445am to give Sheena a wake up call and I didn't get to sleep much the day before. Rubee ah, you better don't drink too much the next time you club because I won't be around and Janice won't be able to carry you to your room. =PpP

Woke up at 445am and called Sheena and Esther. Althought I only know Sheena for a month only, I knew that I had to give her a second morning call. Prepared everything and went down at 530am to meet Esther first. Around 30minutes later, Sheena finally came and she was carrying her first bagpack. Her bagpack was bigger than her...=))))

We reached the airport at around 7am and to our horror, our flight was delayed and we got to take the 9am flight instead of the 8am one. Hence we decided to have our breakfast at Macdonald.

Reached Shanghai at 11am and as soon as we came out of the airport, the 3 of us were smiling. The weather was so nice compared to the weather we were in 3 hours ago in Hong Kong. Anyway, Auntie Alice came to the airport and picked us up and she brought us to take the Shanghai Maglev. This train travels up to a maximum speed of 430km/hr and it uses magnetic fields and forces.



Went to Auntie's Alice house first before going to Dong Jia Hui to tailor our suits and clothes. Sheena and Esther were happily looking for designs and getting their suits ready for work upon their graduation. We spent the whole afternoon there and at around 6pm, we took a cab and went to Paulaner Muchen for dinner with Uncle and his friends. The place was beautiful and after dinner and beer, we went back to Auntie Alice's house.

Woke up at 745am to prepare myself to meet my "boss" at Xi Zhang Road. This district is very central and there are lots of commercial bulidings and of course, its very near Nanjing road, where there are lots of shopping centres.

Met Esther and Sheena again at 11am and then we went to Jade Garden. There was nothing much at that place except shopping for tourist stuff. Esther and I got ourselves a frame filled with paper-cuts figurine of our family and I think that it was really a nice buy. Shortly after this, we went over to Nanjing road and saw 4 crooks on top of a building, trying to jump down to avoid being caught by the police. There were many KPos around watching and we've decided to stay put and watch. But after 15 mins, we left the area (they never even jump loh). Then, we head off for shopping...=))))) We shopped until we forgot the time and we were late for dinner with Uncle.

After dinner, the 3 of us went to a Tea house where we played and drink tea till 2am..=)))))
