day 2

sorry for not updating yesterday... i was busy uploading the gazillion pics -_-"

anyways, here's day 2 of my china trip!

err... i dont even know where we were by that point... shenzhen???

spotted outside our hotel:

the saddest looking cone that i have ever seen!

and off we were!

look!
school kids!
i've always wondered about uniforms of kids in countries with 4 seasons... does it always change or do they add stuff on when it gets colder? hmm...


when i was still in school, i fell asleep on every single trip to and back from school!

looking back... we had classes from 7.30am-3.40pm from mondays to fridays... how did we survive???


the tour guide brought us to an obligatory gold shop. i say obligatory because tour guides are required to bring their charges to these sort of tourist spots. its kinda how the tour agencies earn money.
we werent very interested in buying gold and soon exited. cmon la, buy gold for wad, in malaysia u'll only get robbed! better save the money n buy food or clothes instead! =p

another tourist distination!



it was called window of the world.

why? u'll find out soon enough!



Parthenon... or is it pantheon??? (or is it neither? =p)
i always get them mixed up in f5 sejarah -_-"

then...
i
saw
a
flasher!

he
was
huge!

look!


were u fooled? =p


eiffel tower!



this is an arena for performances and stuff...



err... dun ask me what the sign says...

there were gift shops littered along the way...




if ur eyes are sharp enuf, u'll notice that i camwhored outside a toilet =p



the place was very beautiful... "we walked under the shade of trees"...
*sigh* i always thought that was a romantic phrase =p

we eventually arrived in thailand! (i think)


marred by the effects of the weather...


marred by someone plucking off a lion.

(im merely assuming that it was plucked off)


the details of the structures here were amazing!

on we walked...

so pretty!
its like a postcard pic!






a japanese house renting out kimonos!

GEISHA TIME!!!




stupid ppl... ruin my photo only!

i had to wait till they were gone b4 taking another shot.







they finally moved on, so i cud take this photo! :D
me likes it very much!


err... umbrella too short!



there were ppl everywhere la!
luckily im so used to camwhoring in public places that they didnt bother me much... until they appeared in my pics! rarw!






and thats it!
my only regret was that we didnt have much time, so these shots were taken in a hurry.
i didnt put on any makeup :(
all i had time to do was take off my glasses and borrow my mum's lipstick.
oh well... the natural look works rite? rite??? *convinces self*
i also had to come up with poses as fast as i could so that i didnt waste time. as u can see, it resulted in some very wierd poses -_-"
plus i was wearing all my clothes underneath thats why it looks so bulky. (its not coz im fat ok! nooooo!!!!)

moving on...

mount everest!


then my bro saw this and really wanted to try it...



now we can all play god and walk on water! (no, i didnt mean to be blasphemous. chill!)
but i felt kinda bad coz the others had to wait for me while i geisha camwhored, so i declined but told him he cud still play without me. then he dun wan also. chis!
if it were only my family with us, i wud have gone ahead and played. but one look at the sullen faces of the aunty n uncle with us was enuf to put me off fun and games :(




my kingdom



a sign directing tourists to important places around the world...
toilets are important too ok!


rome??


big ben???


sydney harbour bridge with the opera hse behind it


quickly! im in a hurry!

i have important places to go to! like the toilet! =p


a cathedral


leaning tower of *forgot how to spell* pisa and some other building..

sorry, but my geography sucks and this trip happened one too many weeks ago, so i cant rmbr most of these buildings =p


another cathedral??






there were sooo many fishes...
it was actually kinda freaky the way they swarmed over the food...


i'll make u happy!


we'll make u happy!


it looks so romantic!
right out of a fairytale!
wonder if there's a troll under the bridge...


err... i didnt steal those!

someone transplanted the eiffel tower into egypt =p



nigara falls (i have a feeling my spelling is way off...)


throughout the park, there were several shows...





this demo was about a flood...

another one of my kingdoms


i like this pic!
its like we're going on an adventure!

wondering what those are?


they're my peasants =p


a stall which sold chinese calligraphy
u tell the guy the names of ur family members and he wud make a poem out of it.



miniature great wall


my palace


my warriors!



the contrast of the ancient times and high rise buildings in the background...



my tour guide explained that the sculpture is of a chubby lady coz chubby was considered appealing in those days.


my mum said that the replicas were so realistic coz they even incorporated flaws into them akin to the real ones.
i think the replicas broke after they were put into place there. what do u think?


pagoda!


the grass in china is so much lusher than that in malaysia.
imagine lying on the grass in msia... u'd probably get mud all over u!


click to enlarge if ure interested to know about the shaolin temple



this pic reminds me of the wind and cloud movie...




then off we were to watch a show! (they hold several shows daily)
this one was about how the mongolians conquered china


it was very impressive!

they also had stunts on horses...







child labour! =p


*perverted grin again*


the most annoying walking surface ever!
especially if ure on heels!

we left the place for awhile to get some dinner at a restaurant nearby...



i have no idea why they kept ordering beer at every restaurant... nvm, the bottle is good for camwhoring! =p


food!
we were told that we were extremely lucky to be served prawn coz prawns were scarce in china.


i took this picture coz it looked interesting... its a shopping complex under the glass!

anyways, after dinner, it was back to the place again to watch another show. oh ya, i forgot to mention but b4 dinner we caught another show too! i was really nice with all forms of chinese dances and gorgeuos costumes! (phey feng, jealous? =p)



if i were a guy, i would never be caught wearing that!

heck, i wouldnt be caught wearing that eventho im female!

and thats all the pictures for day 2! :D
