yeah. i'm back blogging again. damn bored. so i guess i shall do a thorough blog post about beijing. (:
17june;tuesday, woke up at 0410 in the morning. went to the airport at about 0445. yeah. waited there and everything. everyone was there except xinyi because she thought meeting time is 0550 when it's 0515. yeah. so checked in and everything.
it was still early so we decided to walk around the airport. oh and meeting place was Terminal 3. walked through the customs or something and got into our A,B and C groups.
went to the boarding gate. took SQ802 to BEIJING! our flight was at 0840. reached there about 1230.
met our tour guide there. mr yan or mr money. checked in into MING RI QU ZHOU HOTEL.
and than i forgot everything. but i guess dinner was before checking-in. hahaha. and than after that, we received the official shirt. went back to the rooms after de-brief. my rooming partner was xinyi and our room number is 726.
18june;wednesday, went for breakfast. and than ate this bread which caused me diarrhoea after that. rah. damn painful. ate the medicine i brought. felt better though.
went to TEMPLE OF HEAVEN. veronica said it resembled a little like the FORBIDDEN CITY. she's weird. hahaha.
and then blah blah blah. can't remember. but i know we would make a lot of noise in the bus. because we would start playing cards. i would make the most noise i suppose. hahaha.
ohya. and we went to this PEARL SHOPPING CENTRE. bought 2 pairs of converse. 1 black and 1 brown. bought 2 shirts for my mother. a watch for my sister. and i didn't know what to get for my father so i bought him a phone cover.
official opening ceremony. damn boring. was sitting next to jayni. played the games in her iTouch. hahaha. pool and bejeweled.
and than started taking pictures of her HEINZ BEANZ. hahaha. she said it was her only source of entertainment. hahaha.
okay. don't remember the rest. hahaha. NEXT!
19june;thursday, went to TIANANMEN SQUARE. sight-seeing. hahaha. was damn bored there. took quite some jump shots but didn't come out that nice. hahaha.
went to forbidden city too. had school exchange with riverside and a china school. don't know what is it called. and than had to rush to dinner. this day's dinner was the best i tell you. i sat with heather, kiaying and crystal. (:
after dinner, we went to the lobby there to play pepsi cola! hahaha. FUN FUN! love it!(:
hahaha. so yeah. than more people came and so we went to the outside to play. hahaha.
20june;friday, 1day to competition. hahaha. went to GREAT WALL OF CHINA! took this some sort of slide thingo up. walked up stairs to this cool tower that has COLD air. was walking with veronica and monica. hahaha. and than we shouted for jayni to go up but seems like she didn't understand.
after that we went down and climed up the slope on the other side. wah. damn tiring luh. hahaha.
had this performance at chang ping number 2 school. their instruments sucks. and instead of timbale, i played on something like the chinese drums. rah. we played tequila and hot latin. the bells was so huge that even if felicia hugged the bells to dampen, it still won't dampen. poor her.
went for dinner after that and than went for night rehearsal. there wasn't any percussion instruments so we played on air. hahaha. damn funny.
21june;saturday, COMPETITION DAY! we were damn scared. and i fell sick on this day. had sound check in the morning but i didn't manage to do it because i wasn't feeling well enough. so yeah.
couldn't really eat also. just ate a little bit of the rice. yeah.
22june;sunday. THE LAST DAY! okay. woke up damn early and went for a "class" with Dr Mills for 1 hour at the conservatory hall. after that we went to the olympic store. where you get to see all the BEIBEI, JINGJING, HUANHUAN, YINGYING, NINI. hahaha! which means: beijing huan ying ni! hahaha. cool yeah.
went for lunch after that and than went back to the hotel to finish all the last minute packing. after that they went to another shopping mall. so jayni and i decided to go around looking for sweets for them to eat on the plane. and than i felt sick again. rah.
went back to the bus and felicia gave me her medicine again. THANKS FELICIA!<333 they were all being nice! THANK YOU ALL!<333
so went for award ceremony and than straight went for the airport because we had to catch a plane. so which means we didn't watch bendemeer again. hahaha. too bad.
okay. i shall leave now. byebye! and i really had loads of fun in beijing! waiting for the pictures! (:
