daYs in bEijIng For a week, I was in the capital of China, a.k.a. Beijing a.k.a. Peking a.k.a. Bei Ping... Actually i was quite scared before n during the trip... cuz.. i veri scared wait the Chinese authorities decide tat my handsome face shld be regarded as their national treasure n dun let me come back to s'pore hahaha....

For those planning to go China soon.. i will suggest to every single one of u.. to bring a face mask there.. i dun mean facial mask.. i mean the thing to cover ur mouth during SARS period... ya... tat face mask....

All toilet users should heed my advice.. their toilets are a weapon in themselves... any foreigner used to clean toilets will agree (i mean.. used to using clean toilets.. not cleaning toilets...)... mayb the chinese wanna punish the ang-mohs for their plundering in the past... tatz y they hav smelly toilets to punish foreigners... but i am innocent.. y punish ppl like me?

Actually... u will find tat their toilets at tourist attractions n restaurants quite ok... if u hav been to the toilets in their universities tat is... U see i was at 2 of their top universities.. n their public toilets realli realli... i dunno how their undergrads use one... make until... so dirty n smelly... go in muz hold breath.. run in.. do business... run out... argh.. n the thing is... in some girl toilets.. they dun even hav doors... so... girls can walk in.. look into one of the cubicle n see some person doing their business... yucks...

I realised tat i may nv be able to understand the mainland PRCs.... their fantastic logic... in one of their toilets... in a restaurant... the lock in the toilet miraculously can be used.... itz workable.. but the catch is tat... the lock has no use... u can still push the door open from outside... so watz the use of the lock? i honestly do not know... no wonder it can be "used"....

Cup noodles was the best food i ate there... after Peking duck n PIzza Hut... haha... which speaks a lot abt their food... u wanna ur enemy to die faster? invite him/her to go Beijing... treat him to Mc Donald fries if u wanna him to die of kidney failure and high blood pressure(super a lot of salt.. like eating salt lidat...)... wanna him to suffer vessel blockage? treat him to Peking's fantastic three layer meat... if i take off my glasses.. i will onli be able to see one layer... the transparent layer.. the soft layer.. the fatty area.. Yucks

Things were made worse when my guide n bus driver were great... the guide was an auntie... she loves to imitate chicken... sorry.. i mean rooster... love to act rooster... then when she talk.. onli the ppl standing rite in front of her can hear one... ppl like me who love to stand at the back can hear only myself talking.... n the bus driver is a bloody slacker... he's lazy to switch on the air-con when the first person board the bus, lazy to help carry luggage when he's supposed to be the one doing so... asshole....

One redeeming factor was their fake goods... they got quite a range there n the price u get is dependent on ur bargaining... tat makes it sooooooo exciting.... itz amazing how one classic tactic can always work... pretend to leave.. n u hear the price being cut by several times the original offer....

The hotel is not bad too... a worthy 4-star hotel.. i love their bed, their tv, their bathtub, their hot shower water... their morning call at 6am...
