Company trip to Qing Dao

青岛 -- Qing Dao, a place where most people will relate to beer (qing dao pi jiu) & beach.


They called "drink beer" there as "ha-bi-jiu", very cute pronounciation.

Some photos:

From our hotel room:

A street called Beer Street 啤酒街,not only fashion clothes can take up window display on a building. Look, Beer also can do a great job!! Fantastic eh? In Qing Dao, every way you turn is beer, beer, beer...

五四广场,got lots of people fly kites there.



We also went to climb Lao Shan in Qing Dao, for almost 3 hours. Steps after steps. And tour guide kept saying another 15 min, tiu... tipu us one. If knew it was almost close to 3 hours climbing, we would have taken the 缆车 go up. Scenary was so-so (coz I think we already seen many mountains and greater view... haha). And, down the hill, a pot of tea was only RMB30, up there, it was RMB 128, really a total rip off. Luckily we were on company expense, haha..



City view from 信号公园. The tower on top can revolve and thus we can get 360 degree view of Qing Dao. Can you see our dear Parkson?

I just realized I did not take any of the meal photos. Qing Dao got lots of seafood, got la-la (they called it 蛤蜊), crabs, fish, prawns, yum yum... 2 of our colleagues eat until vomit & lao-sai, until visited the hospital at Qing Dao, poor thing. For me, I only realized my sai this morning was black color, so, perhaps really got some poisons. hahaha... but is tasty!:) I mean the seafood lah..

p/s: you think everything is very fine in this trip? No lah... I just lazy to complain today only. Muahhahaa....

I am shanghainese-fied

This morning, 11 SPAM emails in my mailbox. Then the IT manager sent us another email, saying, "if you see some SPAM mails today, don't panic, just delete them." But he did not say, IE was down. KNN... and I thought we have the most super powerful firewall on this earth. Apparently still can be hacked for no reason??

I felt so sun-foo without IE access this whole morning.

Then, when the problem is fixed. My IE, for some stupid magic, is all Chinese-fied!!! My blog setting is all chinese. "Posting" becomes 张贴 (some more in traditional chinese, not simplfied one), "Setting" becomes 设定, etc etc... I am so helpless... sigh...

Anyway, I want to blog about some changes within me that I noticed this morning. I am becoming uncivilized I tell you...

every morning, I have to cross 3 streets/traffic lights to reach office. These traffic lights, have the lights for pedestrian as well - red standing lights means cannot cross the street. Green walking lights means you can cross the street. For the past 1.5 years, I am very obedient, I only cross the street according to the pedestrian lights. Cases where the light is still red, no cars on the road, I will still wait for the lights turn green to cross the road, even though heaps of shanghainese have already crossed the road.

BTW, when the pedestrian light is green, all bloody cars can still turn right and fighting the same lane with you. And sometimes, some illegal motorbike will swing by in full speed coming from the wrong direction (direction where they not suppposed to come from). All happen when pedestrian light is green.

This morning, I cross the road when there is no car, and when the pedestrian light is red.

I am shanghainese-fied. TIU LOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am guessing, will I spit on the road in the coming months?? : Or wear the same shirts to work without washing for days??

I need to see a physchologist soon...

Another pricey "toy" in my wish-list

I asked my Beijing colleague about some photo-taking technique (he went to Tibet too in May, and I saw his photos, he has some talents!), about how to take a photo, where the focus is clear, but outside the focus area, all blur blur one. Below is what he explained to me (i scared I forgot, so post it here then I can remember, haha):

你讲的焦内清晰而焦外模糊,在摄影上被叫做景深,景深大就是指焦点和背景(焦外)都清晰,景深小就是指焦点清晰但焦外模糊。
控制景深大小有三个重要的因素:
1,光圈的大小。光圈越大,景深越小;反之光圈越小,景深越大;
2,镜头的焦段。长焦端拍出的照片景深就小;反之广角端拍出的照片景深就大;
3,相机距离拍摄对象的远近。距离拍摄对象越近,景深就越小;反之景深就大;

所以如果想拍出这种效果的照片,首先要换一个大光圈,带长焦镜头的相机。
结论是:投资买一台单反相机吧!

See how talented he is? Anyway... I am toggling on the thought of getting a more professional camera.


Ta-Da~~~~~ Panasonic Lumix DMC - LX 2. Cost around 4-5K. Wow... another big investment.

I still love my Sony Cybershot, but that babe can't do 景深. Damn.

Is it worth to spend 4-5K on a guy's thing - camera? Tell me~~~ Tell me~~~~

Stupid Assistant

I googled "stupid assistant" on Google, both "pictures" and "all websites". Nothing comes out nor even close to Stupid Assistant.

I guess I am the only one having a stupid assistant problem in this earth.

@#$%!!!

Wednesday, June 06, 2007

arghhhhhhh

I very dislike cn man who smoke & walk at the same time. Smoke while walking... or walk while smoking... anyway, I think it is cipet rude to "ask" the person walking behind you, to inhale your lousy cigarette smoke!

To me, a cn man who smokes & walks on the street, is as rude as walking nakedly with the banana dangling outside his panties and forcing all the pedestrians look at his lousy banana. It is that rude!

KNN.... @#$%!

lao sai 篇

昨天晚上很困,11点我就抛下Bui Bui 先进房睡觉。他还在看电视,一个关于 "bigfoot"的纪录片。Bui Bui 坚信所有big foot的传言都是假的。

睡到半夜,梦见我自己肚子疼得要死。醒了,才知道是真的很痛,而且想吐,不用想都知道是食物中毒。但是我是一个很懒的女人,我可以懒到,想再次入睡来忘掉肚子疼痛的一回事。

但是,不用想都应该知道,lao sai这一回事,是没有得忍的。傻的meh?

阵阵的痛,让我不禁的在床上呻吟。。。"ouch....................."。但是我的眼睛还是闭上的。

老公却在这时被我吓醒。他突然坐起来(其实也吓到我),问我,“babe, are u ok??”

我这时也忍无可忍,说“肚子痛,要lao sai”。


xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx


今天早上,bui bui email 我,问到“babe, your tummy ok already?”

lao sai 真的是很痛苦的一件事。但是,被老公宠和呵护的感觉真好:)

@#$%!

I want to complaint about my assistant again!

Sigh... why I so bad luck one, got such an assistant...

She always do things which I have already done (stupid right???), and sometimes, she can zi-ba-zi-wai send emails to other people directly, without discussing with me, like she is the boss and I am her assistant in the cc list. And because some of the things I already did (I am her superior, no need to tell her EVERYTHING right??), she doesn't know, zi-ba-zi-wai asking the same thing again, made other people confused.

And when she made a big mistake, before I can discuss with her of the situation, she kia-si and first thing came out her mouth is, "It's xxxx that asked me to do. Not my fault." Immediately pushed away the responsibility!!! WTF???

I VERY TIU NIA SING HER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why can't I just fire her??!!!!

I will be much healthier, happier, and more efficient without such assistant.

在世界的中心呼喊爱

This is the second Japanese movie series that can make me cry in every episode (it has 5 episodes & 1 summary episode). My sister bought this when she visited me last time, and lend it to me when I went back last time. I started watching it lately because I promised to return to her on my next trip back (which is soon!! yippie!!!!!!).

My sister warned me, "jie, you don't cry like an ah ma when u watch this ok... behave!"

I thought, "simi-lan lah... just another jap drama jeh.."

WAH LAU I tell you. It turned out even better than 巴黎恋人!I love the actor and actress!!! And the story line really can make me feel so sad, even though it is just a story.

Bui Bui doesn't like these movie that make me cry, so I can only curi curi watched when he was away to business trip last week. After he came back from the trip, I haven't finished watching it. So, I watched it when he sleeping at night. And I cried like no body business!!! The story was so ke-lian....

I hope none of the friends I know has their experience in the drama. Damn tong-fu experience.

Sis --- you are right, it's a great drama!!

Whoever wrote this story line & the song, I salute to you. It's simply just great!

A battel with BIG BUG

Last night, hubby was outstation. I went to have facial after work, went home with a satisfied feeling.

Took shower, happily open the window big big to enjoy the cool breeze from outside. But, I suddenly remembered last time I did this "open window big big" action, I "invited" 2 BIG BUGS.

Just before my this scary thought finished in my head, "dat--dat".. SHIT!!! SHIT!!! There's a big bug fly inside to my living room!!!
I panicked. I almost wanted to cry. There is no one to help me. I felt so helpless! And, I was sweating, kanasai.

I turned to get my handphone to call bui bui. Then I realized I make a big mistake. After I took out the handphone, it was not at the spot where I last saw it!!
This is the most scary part -- I don't know where it is now! How? My tears almost come out. I really scared of bug. No, to be exact, I really scared of anything more than 4 legs, which includes spider, cockroach, and butterfly. Yes, I am VERY afraid of butterfly too.

I searching for it carefully, and lightly (脚尖踮着地面), afraid my big action will cause it to fly blindly again. Just when I was comforting myself, "perhaps it flies out again" (but I shut off the window already), and pursuading myself to sit down to watch tv, I took the pillow (want to hug), and saw it! There it was, "resting" on the blanket below the pillow on the sofa, and on my most favorite spot!

I called my hubby again, almost want to cry. He told me just took the blanket and throw outside the balcanoy. Say so easy, that's so difficult for me to do so!

I was staring at it, sweating, and cursing at it. How can it rest on my most favorite blanket and sofa???

So I have a "stupid" thought. I want to suffocate it.

I wrapped the blanket around it (so it was burried underneath), and covered it with 2 big pillows, and 1 small Barbie pillow.


Then I sat beside it, watching it constantly while I turning on the tv and watching a series. Sigh, I was like a crazy woman. Kept turning my head to check on it.

10 minutes have passed. I thought it already died out of suffocation. Suddenly, "tsss... tsssss". It fly out!!!! I was screaming and screaming and I realized it must be lacked of oxygen inside and struggling to find way out just now, that it was "pening". It's flying pattern is a bit mabuk, in circular. Finally, it rest on the floor.

This time, I dare not take the chance. It is either WHOLE bloody night is like this, or I am going to do something to end this battle.

I took my least favorite sport shoes, and smacked it. My hand was trembling before smacking it, coz I was so afraid it will fly out if I don't aim properly (it happened before).

This is the result... I felt so sorry... But I have no choice. It's either you die or I go crazy. Can you see the zup?? It's like "Piak!" then I screamed" AHhhhh". Then long silence in the house. It took me another 5 minutes to check on the "body".

Guess what? It was still moving it's leg, want to fly again!! This time, I felt angry rather than sorry, I screamed at it again (neighbor must be thinking I go coo coo already..), "Why can't you just die??????" I put the sport shoes on top of its body again. I don't know what to do with it.

After the battle, it was already 11pm. I felt so exhausted. Eating watermelon and watching a Japanese drama, my eyes still keep glancing at the sport shoes, so afraid that the bug can fly out again, even though it was practically kemek already.

Do these bugs have sensor??? They can sense when is my hubby not around and come bully me!
I am not going to open any window again when my hubby not in the house.

Lunch Time Topic

有一天的午饭时间,同事们闲聊间,透露了一件我难以相信的事情。
同事甲:“我的内裤,半年就会有磨损,我这个人,有瑕疵我是不会穿的。”
同事乙:“我的也是!”
我--- 差一点没有把饭喷出来!!怎么半年就可以把底裤给穿坏掉???
我想了很久。昨天Purple Mushroom找我吃饭,我拿出来和她讨论(也真奇怪,哪有人一到午饭时间就讨论底裤的受用率)。

Purple Mushroom:"难道她们骑太多脚踏车???”
我:“没有啦,她们两个搭公交车上班的。”
Purple Mushroom:"那一定是她们买的是劣质牌子。I am not surprised loh”
我:“哈哈哈哈。。。”
Purple Mushroom:“我也买过本地的cheap cheap 牌子,也很好啊,还没有烂掉。”
我:“啊???真的??你买过??很好meh?? 我下一次也要试一试local的牌子.”
Purple Mushroom :"oh...可能她们走路很粗鲁!走坏掉的。”
...... (我们静了一下,想象着她们有可能的坏走路方式,可以短期内弄坏一条内裤。。)
我& Purple Mushroom:"不可能吧。。。”

所以,我昨天回去又想了好久。终于给我想通了!!
答案是:“她们连续穿好几天,所以短时间内可以穿坏掉!!”

Must tell Purple Mushroom about my finding later. This is the most possible answer!!

p/s: this is written just before lunch time. Don't ask me why this topic seems to pop out in my mind in lunch time lately...

If I don't.. will I...??

Sometimes I wonder:

If I don't transfer high school from Kuen Cheng to Chong Hwa, will I get to know YL, SW, SH, and LZ, and also Ah Diao, TY, Thye, LL, KT, etc etc? and live an extremely great 3 years senior high-school? Seriously, I still don't understand why I have that moves last time. Tze reasoned out must be because Kuen Cheng is all girls, I cannot tahan, so change to Chong Hwa. hehehe.. But seriously, my memory for the 3 years in Kuen Cheng is so "blur", it was like a dream. I only remember 2 persons name from that 3 years - Doreen & Tze.

If I don't study univerysity in Canada, will I get to know my best friend Kev L., and the siao za bo CY, great pal HL, and also the great 123 church friends? Will I get to have my current personality - not tolerant for inefficient system, and stupid ass personality? Before I independently go over to Canada, I don't even know how to bank in money in a bank as I never stepped foot into a bank alone prior to that. I didn't know how to say "no" to unreasonable request (now? try me, i give you middle finger). I learnt my 'survivor skill' in Canada, and I really thanks my parents for that great opportunity.

If I don't get to know a few ass-holes (and I really mean it) before bui bui, will I cherish bui bui's love, and realize what is called true-love? I don't think there's anyone else besides bui bui who will love me for who I am (bad temper...). And now I think back, I felt so worthless and silly to cry over those men whom I met for mistakes before him.

If I don't marry bui bui, then I don't have to come to Shanghai and endure cultural shock almost hari-hari. But then, I met nicest friends - purple mushroom, and princess eileen. And, we are getting more & more malaysian friends in shanghai nowadays. EC, TL, Ying, A Ng, etc etc... guys, without you, I think I will go crazy here.. And actually, I love the food in SH here. You can get practically any food (Except Hokkien mee... damn.) in this city. Also, I love the cab system here... kekeke... damn efficient ok, not like us in KL, aiyoh-eh... Now I think think, I actually also like the weekends over here, high-tea at different new restaurants, coffee with friends, foot massage.. hohohoo...

So, apparently, everything happened for a reason. Scary huh?

no brain brat

I really think I have a useless assistant.

The only thing she is good at, is forwarding emails from the agency to me, un-edited, and expect me to do all the changes-thinking, idea-thinking. Her brain is left at home is it???

me: "Gu, did you look at these stuff before you forward to me?!"
gu:" yes."
me: "and you brief the agency, based on this idea?"
gu, "yes."
me, holding my temper, "don't you think this is very UGLY??!! We are doing window display, not print ad, you put so many logos there for what????!!!!"
gu, "....."

Sometimes, I feel like strangling her!!!! No brain, want the neck for what? Let me strangle!!

I very wish I can fire her. Bloody lazy useless brat!!!!!

ARRGHHHH........ I am so frustrated!!!

Adios~~~

Today, quite sad, because princess eileen has left us, left shanghai, back to KL (for good).

This energetic young lady has brought many laughters to us. And it's quite weird, how can our age gap so big, but yet still so click (she and me and purple mushroom age gap is quite big...how big? not going to tell u though. haha..).

Purple Mushroom and my conclusion was, "because we are still younger than our real age, that's why u can play with us comfortably." Hahaha... true right? Princess Eileen? :p

Have a safe flight! We will miss you... and also the "unique" experience we have with the photo shop!!

See u soon~~~~~~~

Bra-less in Office

Lately, temperature has been climbing steadily high, afternoon can be more than 30 degree celcius, but at night still cool cool, like 23 degree C.

Then, I noticed some "changes" in my office ladies.

Some of them come to office without wearing BRA!!! And for your information, those bra-less women have quite big breasts ok...

Not that I discriminate the big bor women, not that I discriminate SH-nese women (again), but come on, it's OFFICE leh! Office!!!! Regardless you wearing T-shirts, Jeans, Spaghetti shirts, please wear your bra if you have big breasts! You think office male workers are very "healthy" ah? They might have nose-bleed ok....

And I thought it was just my office. No. After checking with purple mushroom and princess eileen, I noticed it happened to their office too!

Isn't the correct time you don't wear bra be when you are having your personal break time with your buddies, go to picnic at the beach, or walking under the warm sunshine at downtown?

Today, temeperature is 21 - 29 degree celcius, they already not wearing bra. Imaging when temperature hits 40.. they are not gonna wear "anything"??

Am I suaku or what? I felt I have cultural shock, again.

I strongly disagree women don't wear bra in office!! It's office, supposed to be professional and not wearing a tight T-shirt without bra!

Sweet Memory



Gosh... my sister sent this to my brother and I today.


Time flies.


This once again proves that we need to take MANY pictures every year. So that when we look back 20 years later, we can re-live the memory again, sweet memory:)

Young again



Kekekkekekee.....

Some people might think "what? you think you are 18 years old still ah.. still do big photo shooting?"

Girls, love you both!:-) (yes, I am yuk ma...)

Another surprice -- we also do "professional photos" taking. Seeing the "samples" tonight... wooo, so excited. 3 of us. Makes me think of wedding photo shooting. ;) Hope our photos will turn out good, at least 1 piece also good enough. Right babes?:p

Princess Eileen, will miss you soon. Hope these photos won't fade too fast lah~~~;)

p/s: aging is so inevitable. After taking 1 set of these photos, 3 of us were so exhausted. And thus, second set's face expression was not "fresh" anymore. We really getting old! Such simple task can take our energy away. But it was so fun!:p That machine was non-time-limited. We kept hitting "cancel" button, thinking next pose can be better...

P

So bored today.

Sky is qutie dark, like want to rain like that.

Mr SKY!! I know what you are thinking. You saw I washed & hanged my bedsheet out at balcony and you want to rain right? You so sibeh smart lah! RAIN LAH! I can wash again. KNN!

HMMPH...

I think my P coming. Getting pissed easily these days.

My boss just complaining, whatever plants she had at her cubicle, all dying. She told the receptionist to move her plant away, she said, "get rid of the plant lah, all dying. I think my sales are better without plant. I think my luck not suitable with plant. see? the leaves all dying, so does my sales!"

I think her P also coming. Like that also can blame. My sales also not good since January this year, like that I also can blame the plant lah. Can I blame the sky?

"The sky is so polluted. No wonder my sales are low. KNN!"

Talking about pollution, the air here is so sibeh polluted daily. I hate to walk on the street.

Some people will said, "take cab loh, ah ji ah joh"

To fucker -- you think I so stupid never think of this? 10 out of 10 cabs smells like cigaratte-puffing-factory. Thanks to china-man.

Speaking of that, 90% china man smokes. At the rate they are smoking, and the age they can live til, they sure very long-life. That day, my big boss even said it proudly, "During SARS time, the only group that is immuned to SARS is smokers. Hohoho.." Is this real?

Like that, we should all be smoking loh. So nice, cannot get SARS and can live long life. Hohoho...

.................................

I think my P is really on its way. I am not making any sense.

Sickening scene

This morning, I saw a middle age shanghainese man (coz before he did the next ugly thing, he was talking loudly on a mobile phone in shanghainese language), spit in the subway itself, and within 1 second, stepped on the spit and covered it with his shoes, and it stays there unmoved (shoes covered spit) for the rest of the journey.

......

SO SICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dinner conversation

Last night, bui bui father's best friend was here in Shanghai (he stays in Hawaii). Asked us for dinner. So, we thought of booking a restaurant. But he insisted us go to his best friend's house in fu-xing road. House meal.

We very scared his best friend in china is shanghainese... coz, never really like to deal with them. But since he insisted, we told him we will swing by after work.

Apparently his uncle's best friend is a Taiwanese. Hooo Hoo... phew. He is very friendly, and very direct person. We have some great conversation. Even though he looks like 50 over, he got a son (the only kid) that is only 4+ years old. Very intelligent kid. I love him very much. I will bring him toys next time if we do visit that uncle again.

One of the conversation after the dinner was:
Mike (the uncle's best friend name): So, how do you like Shanghai?
Bui Bui: It is OK... at least is a good experience.
Mike: "OK" means you don't like it?
Bui Bui: No... seriously, it is OK. Hehehe...
Mike: Ha! I know what you mean. The city is great, but you don't really like the shanghainese. Am I right?
Bui bui and I broke into laughters. He damn smart! He also does not like them, coz they are rude, he said, if he goes into a lift with 3 shanghainese middle aged women, his ear will become deaf for half an hour after that. They simply talked too loud and rude.

So, I think think again... He is right. We really enjoy Shanghai city. Here, you want any thing also got. It's a great cosmopolitan city. It's just the people's attitude and quality that sucks big time.

OK, I got a statement to make today. I like Shanghai. I really do. The city is great.

Ear Ring

Few weeks ago, went to 吴江路 (that time still not closed yet. Now closed already coz they said that street makes the "city" looks messy.... KNN...) with my girl frens - purple, princess, and Teresa. Bought few pairs of ear rings, for my sisters.

I don't have ear ring hole.

Went home, looked at the ear ring I bought, placed it near my ears, hey, it looks good on me.

So, I have another urge to pierce my ear.

I first had my ear pierced when I was standard 6. But that stupid uncle hand was shaking when he "piang piang" my ear. The hole was one up, one down. So, my mom asked me to let it heal by itself. Within 1 week, the hole was gone.

Second time i had my ear pierced, is half a year before my wedding ceremony. I wanted to be able to wear dangling, impressive, shiny ear ring for the day. So, I went to have my ear pierced during Yee Ling's vacation from U.S. at KL. She brought me to an expensive jewerlly shop in Mid Valley, that shop is purple color, ground floor, where its speciality is selling wedding rings (we bought ours there too. hehe). It costs me RM70 to have the ear pierced. Why? Coz Yee Ling said she got hers pierced there too, and it turned out very good.

After got home, my sister laughed so hard at me, she said, she got hers pierced (long time ago lah) for only RM10. @#$%!. I told her, "your ear ring that uncle gave, fake one. Mine one is genuine crystal leh. hoho." My sister hold her laughter, still murmuring, "my fren, at most got hers pierced at RM20 only... RM70 is a total ripped off lah.."

I carefully took care of the "hole" for over 1 month. One time, while I was washing face, the towel's thread hooked onto the ear ring, it was damn painful! I was screaming and after that crying "what am I doing to myself? this is so painful and no fun!!". But, I hold on to it, for 1 month.

After 1 month is up, I decided to take out the ring for the "hole" to "breath", at least 3 days lah. The process of taking out the ring also a challenge to me. So bloody painful and so bloody hard to take out! Anyway...

After 3 days, I wanted to put it back on. Can you believe my healing power? The hole is healed half way, the ring can go in from front, but cannot come out from behind, the "road" was blocked.

I was so depressed. throw away the genuine crystal ear ring, and called up bui bui that time cry gou li gou li at him. He said to me, "aiyoh... just forget about it ok. There are clipped-on ear ring. Just wear those one. Don't wear also never mind ok."

So, i had a lousy, non-impressive clipped-on earing for my wedding ceremony. Now think back also a bit angry.

Why can't my ear be a bit more obedient? I just want to be normal girl, have ear pierced. My other good fren once told me, "woman without ear pierced, is not a 100% perfect woman". Sob.

So, anyone support me getting my ear pierced again?? I want to wear impressive dangling ear ring!

Day 5: Ngyingchi - Lhasa

林芝—拉萨

Journey started at 8am again. Same route to go back. But this time no need to make many stops. Just a hanging bridge, an interesting village (where 1 man can have many wives -- yah, not so strange to us from malaysia. But, the china men on the bus were very excited about this "dream world").

Hanging bridge:




桥下水流急促。。。怕怕。。。


一夫多妻村--阿沛新村(男人的天堂?)我问bui bui:“给你一夫多妻,你要吗?”。他无奈地摇了一下头,“有一妻已经够麻烦了,不要命啊?”当然,之后一阵毒打是免不了的。hehehe...



蓝天白云,牛羊悠闲地在吃草。安逸的气息,顿时存在空间。


知道明天要回上海了,在车上,虽然辛苦,还是不舍地多拍一些光秃秃的山脉。


西藏--扎西德勒!(it means - good luck, how are u? wish you well... it's a tibetan language)

Day 4 - Nyingchi

拉萨—林芝—巴松措—巨柏王和柏树

Tour guide told us the 海拔 of 林芝 is only 2900 meters. I was very happy, thought it is a fun ride again. dim-butt-ji, tour guide told me with a serious face, "it is more difficult than yesterday ok? travelling time is 80% of the whole trip (10 hours bus ride), road is bad. Sun is hot. Be prepared. And, we need to cross over another 5010 meters above sea level - 米拉山口" I was feeling really down that time, missed my easy-life in shanghai so much. I hoped I did not vomit again at that mountain. I saw Eric also a bit panic. This time, he sure tighten up his hat. hahaha..

So, we started the journey at 8am. woke up at 6.30am. No oxygen again in early morning. But luckily I had 点滴 2 nights before,so still feeling OK. (those medicine that we prepared earlier, all uselss one. The money I spent on buying those medicine, is more than the 点滴, aiyoh... just get 点滴 easier lah. Just wished earlier that time got experienced people told me so.)


After 1.5 hour bus ride, we reached the 松赞干布出生地, apparently, 松赞干布 got 2 heads one. Can you see from second picture? So full of mystery...


Continue the journey after took some pictures. 2 hours later, we reached 米拉山口,海拔5010米。Again, take picture. I dizzy again, so just take few pictures, steadily get on the bus. This time, bui bui made sure Eric tighten up his hat. And, NO RUNNING! Everyone was safe this time. No one vomited, no one fainted :) (2 days ago, not just I vomited ok. Other members also got vomit. But since they no one important to me, I lazy to mention). At Mila mountain, there were many 经文 flag. And tour guide told us the local here, after passing by this mountain, love to exclaimed, "cho-la, cho-la", meaning "victory victory".


Can you see the lousy toilet setting?? It costs RMB1 to bang-jiu ok!

Next site, is 中流砥柱. It was said that this big rock is 守护神工尊得姆修炼时的座椅, interesting eh?
After lunch, another dreadful bus ride of 2 hours, we reached 巴松措 lake. This lake is so blueish!!! We were like "are we in heaven?".




We visited an old-tree-palm. It has more than 1000 years old. Geng!


By the time we reached hotel in Nyingchi, it was 10pm again.. Day 4, tired, but yet worth it!
