Day #40 Sunday

Woke up early in the morning, around 9 something. We decided to go to Hua Luo Li to purchase some shirts with our leftover money. Yes, we are going to spend all our money so that our wallet can get thinner and it saves space.

Jianwen brought the shirt he bought few days ago for some exchange as the shirt if full of typing errors. Me and teeyong were tempted to get the ralph lauren polo shirt as jianwen bought himself one few days ago. The quality was so nice that you can hardly detect the minor tweaks made on the logo.

Shopped around the mall, this was the longest time we spent in the Hua Luo Li mall. Now I realise why the girls can spend hours shopping in that mall. Choose, try, change, choose again, try again, and buy. "If you like it, just try it, it's ok if you are not buying", the salesperson said.

I bought myself a yellow ralph lauren and I was tempted to buy another Paul Smith polo. An orange and black stripe shirt. It was so nice but sadly my size is not available. So, the salesperson promised to bring a larger size to me next day. I'm happy with the service she offered so I am going to go to the mall again next day.

After much shopping, we had our lunch first time in the Hua Luo Li mall. Ordered 宫爆鸡丁, the waiting time was terrible. I thought I have been waited for more than 20 minutes. The food was nice except that the pepper were so much that once you bite it, you're so dead. After the lunch, we continue our shopping and kuan/teeyong bought gucci jeans.

We actually took tram to the Hua Luo Li from Opposite Campus. It was one RMB and we assumed that the price is ok for the distance and scenery we could enjoy during the ride. It shortens our travel from 30 minutes walking time to about 10 minutes sight-seeing-ride. When we're done with our shopping, it was raining. We shared umbrella and went back to the waiting place to wait for the tram to come.

Upon reaching hostel, I am not determined to pack my luggage yet. Being a frequent traveller, it's way too early for me to pack my bag today. Perhaps I shall pack my bag on the next day.

We were planning to go to Chicony to have our jap food again, but we failed to book a seat there. So, we changed our plan to eat at Houcaller. For a few reasons, me and teeyong didn't join the group to eat at Houcaller, but have our dinner at the fast food stall in campus.

Chit-chatted and ton together after the group came back from dinner. I was told unofficially that I am going to give a speech next day for the graduation ceremony. I'm proud, glad and I seriously thought that it was my pleasure to represent the 20 of us to reflect and share our experience at the closing ceremony. However, before any officialy notice from Mr Wee, I didn't work on my speech.
