13/09 (Thurs)
Ate teriyaki burger @ mac for $3. Headed over to 秀水街 for some shopping, the trick there is to walk away and they will give u discount. Bargained a bag for my sis from 120rmb to 30rmb, pro anot? Headed to wal-mart and to 网吧, talking to my parents for the first time through web camera.

14/09 (Fri)

Fly off to Suzhou, it was a long journey from Beijing to Shanghai through a 2hr flight and van from Shanghai to Suzhou for another 2hrs. was surprised that the toilets here have no doors and the dormitory ceiling was super low. But the people are nice la.

15/09 (Sat)
Rest day. Headed to 观前街 which is about 15mins walk, had lunch there. Didn’t managed to find a cheap laundry service here, had dinner after 网吧-ing. Super cheap, $3 for a bowl of noodles with 3 ingredients, like yong tau fu.

16/09 (Sun)
I am an obasan here le. Wash clothes, hang clothes, but was very satisfied after seeing what we done. Got to know 强哥aged 21 from the guys’ dormitory under the security department, he helped us to apply for the handphone line here. We ate at this restaurant, ate rabbit meat la, but I only ate a bite. Walked for 30mins to this place for arcade and网吧. Play until sweating la, den the网吧 rocks. We got a room for the 6 of us, watch my shows, talk to my sis. Didn’t play the games with them coz my com can’t play them. Ate at this bbq store for dinner, not bad, especially their 馒头.

17/09 (Mon)
Wore their not bad looking uniform for orientation, it was a classroom session and some walk abouts. Headed to网吧to watch my shows and played my first CS, play till I giddy la.

18/09 (Tues)
The blue and white housekeeping uniform made us very low morale, the uniform looks dirty. It was just looking at rooms and theory session. Yanni fell asleep and Felix called her up using the customer method by not touching her. Took her damn long to wake up, but it was very funny la. Typhoon striked Suzhou, delayed our dinner, but we headed out eventually nearby and also went to the bought some groceries like 5 packets of milk.

19/09 (Wed)
After the practical session for the housekeeping, which we were way ahead of time, we did the practical stuffs like cleaning toilets and making beds which I feel that the toilet was the easiest. We were told to make a king size bed, damn tough la, bed damn heavy, , I took 19mins.

20/09 (Thurs)
We saved $ by not going to 网吧, but Tian Chuang and I went out to get things. 强哥joined us too and we taught him english. Finally used our laptops to do the reflections and take stupid pictures. Wasn’t feeling good, vomitted, don’t ask me why because I don’t know the reason.

21/09 (Fri)
Did more rooms for housekeeping, but it was slacking session for the last hour of the day. I was sleeping when the others were talking to Ms. Pan. It was Tian Chuang’s birthday, so we were all trying to distract her while Felix and others went to buy the cake. It was kind of difficult to not make her feel suspicious, 强哥joined us on the celebration on the 7th rooftop floor where we usually hang our clothes to dry. Bought cake and some other things for her, and it was also the first time my face got dirtied by cake. Waaaa! Luckily not much, but so we board the staff lift down to our dormitory it was rather awkward as we all had cream on our faces. Headed out to 网吧again as we went out to buy the calling cards whereby after that I continued to eat the cake. Haha.
There is a routine for 3 days, after lunch break, we will all head to take a short break, whereby I will always wake up 15mins early to shit, it happened for 3 days k? And i dun shit tt much ion Singapore

22/09 (Sat)
Housekeeping was super slack la, we watched Final Destination 3 in the hotel room with Ms. Pan. We even continued the movie after that and watch other shows until it was time for us to knock off. Headed off to 凤凰届for dinner at this shabu shabu shop which was not bad la, had arcade session playing the Chinese drums and house of the dead, we even had an hour of pool game. Bought a pair of pants on our way back and back in the dormitory, 强哥scolded f**k you. We told him the actual meaning and he was rather surprised, he even called to apologise to us la.

23/09 (Sun)
Today was no rooms for housekeeping but in the room learning how to use Fidelio. It was boring and we did pick it up quite fast la. After lunch the trainer didn’t know what to teach us so we just slack in the office reading STRAITS TIMES and other papers. Headed out to this supermarket called “ou shang” and bought a carton of milk and some biscuits. Was back in the staff canteen to use our laptops then 大强哥came. 大强哥 is 强哥’s elder brother, both working in the hotel just that 大强哥is the leader for the f&b restaurant. He wants to bring us to 金鸡湖, so we went as we didn’t want to reject him because we did that quite a few times. The 6 of us squeezed into one taxi la, but the night view there was very nice plus the weather there was very cooling. Sent Tian Chuang back as she was tired, and Felix was a emo kid for the whole day so he went to roam around alone. So the remaining 4 of us went for supper at 凤凰街 at this dalian restaurant called 黑土情. They ordered dog meat but I didn’t go for it, was rather full la, drank 1.5 bottles of beer. So I was feeling rather tired but I don’t know if it is the effect of the beer or just thati was tired because it was already 2plus in the morning.

24/09 (Mon)
Off day finally, but I woke up at 10 automatically to wash clothes and headed out with Tian Chuang to 观前街to buy mac for lunch. We took the Suzhou’s tuk tuk back for 8rmb, was fun la. Also managed to draw money from the bank. We went to 拙政园without Felix, the place was nice and we did a lot of stupid things there. Headed for foot reflexology, but it wasn’t that good because the strength used wasn’t enough and it was still a guy that did it for me la. Went to 观前街for dinner at this Hong Kong fastfood 真功夫. Went back and did the e journal was about to sleep at 1plus then 强哥said want to go out and walk, so Yanni and I went. Sat at this pavilion and talk, talk till I was tired because it was already 4am when we went back to the dormitory.

25/09 (Tues)
Off day number 2. Woke up automatically at 10plus la, Tian Chuang wasn’t around so I went looking for her but to no vaild so I just went back take out laptop and use it on my bed la. So Tian Chuang a whille later and she went back to bed, felt like going out la so I went out alone, saw Wesley when I was walking out, hide to not let him see me because I want to be alone. Bought a shirt for my ah ma, so magazine feel not walking to 观前街but I lazy la so just walk one round bought an ice cream and sat at the pavilion till Yanni called looking for me. Went out again to 观前街 with the others looking for dvds and vcds then headed back in a tuk tuk with 5 person in it. Went to观前街 for a sucky dinner and back again to 网吧 but I left alone earlier and roam to a so called 24hr shop 可的 (ke di) and bought a can of BEER. Wanted to walk down further but Tian Chuang called me so went back to the rooftop and so called celebrate 中秋节.

26/09 (Wed)
Slack today because we played games and had forfeit like drawing tortoise on our hands which I had the least. Used the laptop to arrange the photos we had taken since day 1 in China talked to my mum awhile online then headed out to 网吧to send my sis the pictures through mail. Left alone as usual and roam to 可的 again to get beer. Don’t ask me why, I don’t know either, guess I was rather moody. Bought one more can from another 24hr shop, sat at the bus stop to drink, 2 cans made me feel kind of tired. Left the bus stop when I saw a guy sitting down, when I was back no one was at the dormitory. Was back at 1230am and slept till 1plus because Tian Chuang woke me up to get keys so I was awake. Sat down and talk with them
27/09 (Thurs)
We were quite busy today I guess, did quite rooms watched a little of tv, and I am feeling tired sia. Slept at like 2plus wake up 6plus, ARG!

28/09 (Fri)
Wash 1 set of clothes 2day, just 1 set and I was the only one who wash it. We did more rooms today, which was a good thing because I don’t get to fall asleep. Let me say, all of us hate room 110. It is the room of the fnb manager, but so what? His room stinks, it damn messy and lastly we think that he doesn’t know how to shit. Our housekeeping 管家rocks man! His room is like so neat and clean whereby he even makes his own bed, can u see the difference?
Headed out to the 网吧alone to talk to my mum, then headed back alone at 11plus and out again with the others to 可的 & C-Store to grab somethings to eat.

29/09 (Sat)
We were supposed to be in the public area department under the housekeeping today, but out in charge wasn’t free so we were like slacking the whole day la. Listen them talk, and I fell asleep, super shiok.
Headed out after that with one of the China guys to get bus tickets to Shanghai and headed off to dinner 观前街 which was not bad la. 20rmb eat until full and the weather is getting cooler especially at night.

30/09 (Sun)

We were under the 洗衣房 today for housekeeping. It was very fun la. We get to use the machine to iron and fold the cloths and even worked under the 制服房 to give out the uniforms to the people working. Super super slack I can say, but was fun la.
Just had dinner with the Vice President of Gloria Group at the restaurant in the hotel. The food was ok, and the VP is very nice la. He’s a malaysian and will always talk to us and ask us how we mare doing. All of us rushed to the washroom after dinner la, because we drink too much tea and it wasn’t nice to leave the table.
Off i go to Shanghai tml! Bye!

In conclusion, the few of us have nicknames amongst ourselves. Like Yanni is the "kun shen" (sleeping god) coz she alway falls asleep and Tian Chuang is the "la sap shen" (dirty god) and im the "burp shen"...
To talk bad about others, the best language so far is not english coz some ppl understands. The best is HOKKIEN!! hahaahhaha....

无尽的爱 - 刘明峰

我在每个和你分开的日子裡 
爱你的心从未止息
看时间悄悄划开我们的距离 
让我不能自己
发现我不够好 
你也不完美 
纷纷扰扰 伤痕累累 
恨自己当初伤害你不懂得珍惜 
却来不及我在无尽的等待 
却只剩伤害 心碎的时刻 
喔 有谁能明白无尽的悬崖 
孤独的存在 没有你的未来
我的爱 失去后才明白 
后知后觉你却在咫尺天涯 
道不尽千言万语 在心口难开 
真实你的存在 
你的爱 我总是放不开 
只能在梦醒时分 
痛却难以释怀 
在我心上没人能替代 是你的无尽存在 无尽的爱
