.:Simply Funtasy:.

I am bored, I want to write something, but nothing exciting happen on my life lately, so I'm gonna share some memories when I was in China last year, because I missed the life there too! P/S: The pictures were taken using my phone, so I don't think they were published in my blog before, as most photos uploaded in the blog were from the camera. I recently e-mailed Zhang Lao Shi , the teacher who helped us a lot during our stay there, and I felt so happy and excited when I received her reply! :) ^The first meal we had after arriving Xin Jiang It was literally the first culture shock for me. The portion of the food surprised me, and even frightened me. We shared, but still couldn't finish it! Then got this kind of 挫折感 for wasting the food. However.... The portion win over our digestive system. Initially, we share quarter, later share half, later eat whole portion by ourselves, and later add some more!! -___- The common conclusion reached: 胃都被养大了!! ^The first cat we met in Xin...

黄山，安徽省黄山市 WARNING: Damn long post! Initially, I was thinking about writing the whole events of my East China trips, not as detailed but just as slightly explained as I could, but I don't think I can. Hehe. So, I'll just write about my most satisfied trip, and leave the rest for the pictures I've uploaded in Facebook to tell the tale. This would be one of my best trips ever in my whole life. The fact is that, my confession to most of friends and family who don't know yet , it is my first solo backpack trip! v(^.^)v It has been a long and 'secret' planning, that I have said a lot of white lies to make it come true. I'm sorry to those I've lied, I have a sin. A big one =( Solo backpack in a foreign country is hassle free if you make detailed yet adjustable planning, where you can either follow what you have planned or making some adjustment according to the situation later in your trip accordingly. A planning is crucial especially if you are the kind of by-...

One of the must-visit place in Xinjiang. It is located at the half way up the mountain of Bogda Mountain 博格达峰 (one of the mountains within TianShan Mountain range) in FuKang district 阜康县. It's about 2 hours driving journey from Urumqi, which is suitable for a one-day trip planning. It is a natural lake on the mountain, making the lake in low temperature all year long. This phenomena has caused the fishes and living creatures inside the lake is in small scale of size, not larger than your palm. Anyway, the myth of a 'water horse' in this huge lake existing. Duh~ Due to the temperature and climate, it is a good environment for some of the exotic herbs and animals to grow. If you ever heard of 天山雪莲 TianShan Mountain snow lotus (a kind of herb, expensive and rare) , yup it is a product of TianShan Mountain. This place is full of stories and poems and mysteries. This place is most famous of the love story between ZhouMu King 周穆王 and Lady Queen Mother 王母娘娘. The picture above sho...

After posts and posts of unhappiness in Uni, I think I should write about something else to enlighten up this blog shall I? ^^ It's one of the unfinished traveling tales to be told when I was in China. Yup, almost 3 months delay already. Ok lah let me settle once and for all slowly ... The initial plan was suppose to be Xinjiang family trip. It was quite a chaos also lah when discussing about this trip, all of us gathered in MSN to discuss from all over the places (KL, KB and Xinjiang). Weeks and weeks of planning. I couldn't do much though as I was so far away, and the only task I did was to check the domestic flight fare. However, due to some not-sure-what-is-the-main-cause-of-the-miscalculation circumstances, it finally turned out to be a trip to Guangzhou for 3 of us: Mum and Dad from KL, me from Xinjiang, because it is cheaper to pay for a ticket of one to-fro Xinjiang-Guangzhou than the ticket of two. Did I ever say the domestic flight going in and coming out of Xinjiang...

Continuation from the previous post ... On that evening after our visit to Qin Terracotta Army, we took the tourist bus No. 1 to the train station, and from there, we took a bus to Yun Cheng 运城, 4 hours journey from Xi An. 运城 Yun Cheng is located at the Shan1 Xi1 province 山西，the neighbouring province of Shan3 Xi1 陕西. Xi An is in Shan3 Xi1 province. The Yun Cheng trip is in conjuction with Chai Ching's mission to visit her relatives, and we just escorting her. Hehe. The friendliness and hospitality from her relatives earn multiple thumbs up!! Our first breakfast in Yun Cheng Her uncle brought us to China's largest Temple of Guan Gong 关帝庙 in China. Guan Gong is one of the famous icon in the Romance of Three Kingdom 三国演义 . In Yun Cheng, people worship and pray Guan Gong the most. They even have a gigantic statue of Guan Gong at a roundabout in the town centre. If you watch The Red Cliff 赤壁 starring Tony Leung, Takeshi Kaneshiro etc, Guan Gong is the one with the darkest face and ...
