Back from china

It had been so long... i sure loved Singapore, its convenience, aircon buildings, its shopping centres.... n so much more.
Been away for a week but it seems so long (never did i miss here so much when im on trip, guess it is because it is not reali a vacation to me). im at the rural state of country, surrounded by elders; had to watch my manners n behaviour.
When i reached the airport, it is so small n outdated like our old bus terminal with onli a few flights. (0nli tiger airways n some local airlines using) 4 hours flight reali seem a torture to me. after that, we still had to travelled another 1.5 hr then we reached the homeland. oh it is night (early nite) but the place had no street lamps so veri dark plus this season is terrible ho0t this yr. even with the fan, is not much use. Everything there so ancient. i gave up living in there, luckily i was grouped with the youngsters, the folks know how pampered we are, decided to let us stay at one of relatives' house(which is in the city area) n did i mention his place got aircon...wwow...luxury...im so sick.
The first few days began with a ritual... it is long n tiring, all folks are veri helpful. the days usually ended with a dinner gathering with the villagers. i cant rem all of them as they look alike and they all began with the same surname.
After all the days there, im sick of their meals (always chicken in meals, not much choice. n goose, they like goose than duck; guess it is much better. their pork cannot make it; always got a smell, it makes me gags) There is once i saw with my own eyes they kill the hen....make me vomit...so pitiful... i vow never eat chicken at there...but that doesn't last long as i faced with little choices at mealtimes. Their dishes are always so oily but surprise the people are slim.
China ppl reali loved dogs, they kept it as pets. (always tot they had dogs in their meal) The dogs veri gd looking but of course nt purebred.
Hainese ppl reali love their chicken to be steamed white, that goes together with their special sauce. But i veri much prefer our sg favour.
the city in hainan is veri small, even though im a stranger in that place. But there is no fear, cos everyone speak Chinese. i do go some of the places of interest there, c the biggest guanin situated at the far end of the beach abt 108m. visit some of the factory stuff, their home make is famous in coconut n coffee.
im reali glad to be back in sg!!!! ;)
