getting around the system

omg. i'm finally able to blog again. i need to use some sneaky method but well, finally can get on. no idea why blogger has suddenly been blocked. obviously something to hide la. tibet or sichuan or some other rubbish. who knows??

i realise that i've become very cheena. i'm so used to living here. i just pop into anything in my closet and i'll look really good (it's relativity). but last saturday, i attended a singaporean event. omg. i forgot i was dealing with singaporeans. singaporeans really bother. oh man. i should have like bothered a bit more. i was really quite underdressed for the occasion. how? when i go back to singapore? how? haha. it's okay la. i'll ask seb to be my fashion consultant.

talking about singapore, i'm soooo looking forward to returning. so so much. i couldn't imagine myself missing home so much. but i do. i couldn't imagine myself missing church so much, but i do. sighs. i started packing last week (crazy right? that's how much i'm looking forward). my bag is full, and my room is still full. sighs. i don't know how on earth i'm going to move to shanghai directly from beijing.

anw, here's a checklist of things that i need to bring from singapore:
1. l'oreal playball beach creme
2. ziploc large x 10 (they have small and medium and they don't have large here?!! i searched four supermarkets!!)
3. essence (my nice laundry detergent that gives my clothes the wonderful smell they have)
4. jules des'trooper almond thins
5. khong guan custard cream biscuits
6. jeans - 1 pair (obviously...i need to wear jeans on the plane)
7. burberry polo tee (as above)
8. lining shoes + shoe bag (cos i'm gonna bring that back to singapore)
9. work pants + shirts (for shanghai)
10. iron (for work clothes)
11. ais notes (i'll do some revision in singapore)
12. armani code (i'm bringing back to singapore)
13. gillette fusion razor blades (anything that's imported into china is more expensive here)

that would be all...i hope. hence, i expect my gargantuan luggage to be pretty empty and pretty light on my way back to beijing.

next...food i must eat in singapore:
1. durian
2. mangosteen juice
3. cafe cartel pan-fried macaroni
4. carrot cake black with chilli and extra egg from marine terrace
5. hock lam street popular beef kway teow
6. mei yuan duck rice
7. bak chor mee
8. food in yong peng (malaysia)
9. fish n co sambal grilled fish (no veggies, more fries) and cola tonic/passionfruit

omg. so many cravings right now. this is not healthy. i shall gym tmr. tmr will be my 17th consecutive day gyming. since i landed in china, i've been to the gym 62 times and out running twice. that's 64 times. i always run at least 5km. so i've run more than 300km since landing in china. i'm proud of myself. and that is a license to eat. woohoo!!

i cannot adequately express my excitement. above the food, the people!! seeing the pple i love and miss...that is what i would call...home. ((:
