Day 12- 洋货市场 and dong fang zi zhu K-time!!:)

*Waiting for the heater to heat up the water before i can enjoy my warm bath*
Weather today is something like Singapore's December windy day and it makes it a really awesome day for us:)Woke up early in the morning and met Luyang, Belle and Jenny, together with LiuLi, Angel and some other buddies!:)It's really nice of them to take their day off and bring us around to explore yeah!:)On the bus, I experienced how friendly can Tianjin's local get when the two young lady sitting in front of me turned to ask me where the group of us are from.The feeling is pretty cool when you realised people around seemed to be really curious about you:)
Almost experienced a molest case with a weird uncle sitting behind me, luckily i kept leaning forward, could have turned behind and asked him to shift his hands!
The BEST part of the day wasn't just the fact that we travelled by their gao铁, but is the part where we went to a pretty well-known KTV nearby to sing our hearts out!!Those china buddies are truly GOOD SINGERS!:)Speaking about our experience on the 'TIANJIN MRT', we found out something really interesting!Instead of our Singapore Ez-link cards, they used a little coins which have integrated chip in it to travel from point to point. Find it that this system is not really convenient as people tend to lose the coins without realising it..However, in the train, i observed that the people are really quiet and we seemed to be the only group laughing out loud and chatting away..some form of courtesy to look out for yeah:)
As compared to Singapore, the land here is rather empty and most of them are covered with fields of muddy tracks.If it's possible, we could use our skills and develop the lands available here!hahaha!While we're on our way to the train station, Me and Liuli was browsing the newspaper today and when we read through the captions shown below the pictures of survivors and rescuer teams sent over to Japan, tears fell from Liuli's eyes and I was feeling a little ache for the innocent people who suffered due to the natural disasters..like what one of the captions said:"When disaster hits, we're all known as HUMANS, Let's hope kids in Yunnan and Japan could hold hands together and get over this tough period".
It's really lucky for us to meet a guy who stays around the destination that we were heading to.He even warned us and tell us what to look out for during our shopping duration there..How nice of him!:)If any one of them were to come over to Singapore,I'll make sure they will get such nice treatment from us too!:)
The yang huo shi chang is not as expected..after walking around and browsing through the flea markets, the MOST things seen around was openly displayed weapons on sales and it looks pretty scary!Coolest thing found there was the Chinese Medicine Electronics Cigerettes..wanted to get one for Eugene because the Store owner said it's a healthy puff.In fact, if one were to be determined to quit the bad habit away, he will make the effort and make things happen too yeah(:*hint*
Something terrible to blog about today..After 11 days here, i thought it's quite safe but today's incident proved me wrong.Jiawei lose his wallet(with nric, student pass and hotel room card) and Jonathan nearly got pick-pocketed.Can't those people have some guilty conscious?!If they were to just go after the money and find ways to return those important documents back, at least it reflects their morale.Since they're already 'working' as 'pick-pockets', i think it's pretty obvious that their integrity is already gone..*disappointing*
The AWESOME part came..$138+$130/hr for a 6-9pm Karaoke was quite a nice way to spend tonight away!:DSang till our hearts' content and it's something like some PARTY TIME!!HAha!Too bad Mr Chua didn't make it to join us in time, we shall visit that place again soon!!Time to mug hard tomorrow!!:D
Learnt today that the students here will always do their own laundry and will can only eat out as there's no stove in the hostel. There's even hand signs for the locals to communicate about the different numberings:)How cool is that yeah!:D
Dropped by the night market once again but i manage to control my spendings!!:D
Room Warmer is swtiched off today and let's hope the temperature won't get too low at night!!:D
Off to the bathroom to wash up!!Goodnights people!!
