It’s been 4 weeks! Can you believe it? I am going home 6 days later! Oh my god! Anyway, so what did I do today? Well, I was woken up by the deliveryman’s call this morning at 9.40am to collect my order: a pink purse at the main gate. Before he hung up, he said “Be fast!” So I rushed to the bathroom to clean up and straighten my hair before going out with Geena and Yan Fang as Yan Fang also received the call to collect her order: 2 wallets shortly after I received mine.
Within 10 minutes, we reached the main gate and signed on our products. Then we checked to make sure they were the right ones before returning to our rooms. Well, the delivery was fast! The boss or the in charge just texted me yesterday at 11+ am to say that he just sent out my purse. This morning, I received it although he told me it would take 3 or 4 days before I received it.
I paid a total of RMB 45, including RMB 20 for the delivery fees. If I am not wrong, the purse was delivered from 广州 (Guang Zhou). No wonder it was so expensive! Despite that, I am glad that the purse arrived today as Common test is on Thursday so how do we get our items when the test is in progress?
The pink purse that I ordered for my aunt
After getting the purse, Geena went over to Yan Fang’s room to prepare for the presentation later at 1pm while I went online to FaceBook to upload photos, etc. At 12pm, Sarah, Melissa, etc went out to packet lunch for us. ThanksJ I ate Xiao Long Bao as my lunch. 1 hour later, it’s presentation time!
At around 2.30pm, all groups had presented and we discussed a little bit about the cultural exchange performance. Half an hour later, we went back to our rooms and went online before heading to the classroom at 4pm to learn the dance, etc.
From 4+pm till about 7pm, we were learning the dance steps and practicing over and over again. At last, it’s time for dinner and we went to 堕落街 to packet dinner back to eat. I bought ham fried rice, Geena bought ham kway teow and Jas Min bought ham and egg kway teow. After that, we went to buy 香港蛋仔. While waiting, 3 kids popped out and started smiling at us. They asked where we came from and even wanted to take photos with us. They looked really excited to see us and we think that it’s because they seldom or never see foreigners before. They look like brothers but they are just good friends.
They are so cute! The one in red shirt is six and a half years old only!
After that, we went back and it’s already 8.15pm. I took a shower and then had dinner but the ham fried rice tasted so badly that I could not take it. I ate a few mouthfuls and then gave up. With that, I shall go watch 宫心计 and then prepare for the cultural exchange performance.
Reflections:
It’s my first time shopping online and I don’t think I will ever try it again. It’s so troublesome and you can only depend on the photos to see how the items look like, etc. I prefer shopping physically as I can touch the product, feel and see how the product really looks like. But still, it is not a bad experience J
