after about one week of recovery of the one week holiday, i am just coming in to blog my general feelings for the trip. due to my laziness, i was not be able to write a daily diary for my trip (which i have expected even before i went to the trip)
so the first 2 days, i was in guangzhou practically eating and eating like crazy.... but the only food i have memory of is the shuang dan nai. super nice.... i want to eat it again man but just don't know where to buy it. heard from my boy that it can be bought in singapore but he just refuses to tell me location of place to eat it. omg.... i wan it i wan it!!!! i like it with lotus seed although this is not the one that the shop is famous for. something else to note in this shop was that the tables and chairs are terribly small. i think the table can only hold one big soup bowl with a fringe space of 2 inches. this is small. i don't usually get to see this kind of small furniture. went to shop a little but their style is full of glitters and is definitely not my kind of clothing so i didn't buy anything. went to an antique street but they are mostly consisting of fake jades. since i am not into this kind of things, i didn't bother to look at it at all.
next up is the visit to my ancestral grounds and we are just there to see all the old houses, the distant relatives, animals and paddy fields. if i could pose some of the pictures, i would comment about it. the only thing that really sticks with me in my mind is the stupid mosquitoes that bit me like crazy!!! i got about 90 bites on one of my legs and i am suffering terribly even at this moment. i am gonna see a doctor tomorrow. i heard from my bro that they are sandflies.... how am i gonna survive?! anybody has any remedies that can cure this stupid itchiness that i am experiencing now. i hate the sandflies. those who had been in ns please help!!!!!!! omg!!!! i am gonna die... burn or slice my skin!!!
another thing that i have found out is that wherever i go, i will be served tea, no matter whether it is a restaurant or a house. but i have to say that the tea are generally good (maybe it's due to the fact that i don't drink much tea but nevermind... i like the tea and that it what that matters)
the trip to hongkong is not as what the commercials portray them. the food there was only okay. don't really like but the roast goose and the spare ribs.... whao..... super nice... i was at some famous restaurant, should be yong kee or something like that. but the clothes are nice..... different but nice. i like it but don't have much time to shop around. who wants to go to hongkong can jio me. i will be willing to go with you (provided that i have the money) generally, it is okay to have mandarin and english but being able to speak cantonese gives you certain advantages though. heehee.... (just a small note)
lao po bing was somewhat nice. kind of get addicted to it but due to financial limitations, i didn't buy alot and due to the fact that i can't find things that are unique, didn't buy gifts for you all. sorry!!!! i didn't mean it. i would buy gifts if i found something that is unique to the country.
that's all folks. haha.... will pose some pics if i get to know how to do it.
