Things are looking better



Today I went to the UCenter to eat with my classmates for lunch and the old korean guy wanted to pay for ALL OF US. The total was 280 kuai BAHAHA. we were all ready to pay separately and had the money ready and all, then hes like, "wo qing ke!" and everyone didnt want him to pay but he fought for it. Then he asked how much it was and the fu wu yuan was like "280 kuai" and hes like "wow, wei shen me na me guei!". We went to that bird cage restaurant upstairs on the 5th floor and its actually Si Chuan food. Of course, i wanted to try their spicy noodles and omg it was SOOO SPicy. Enough so that it made me full after 3 bites, then the Korean guy was like "oh we can switch it for you!" but if course i dont want him to pay for another one so he gave me all the dumplings and he took the spicy noodles for himself instead.

Lunch was fun today. We had 10 people and while we were walking to the UCenter, the old korean guy and another japanese girl walked all the way to the subway because he thought that we were going to take the subway to another korean place! And everyone else went to the mall and then the two on the bikes went somewhere and it was chaotic haha. Then FINALLY everyone came to the mall and it worked out fine. Then after food, me and Jennifer wanted to walk the mall, and Nick and Erin wanted to get bubble tea downstairs at Happy Lemon. Mine was this roasted soga bean thing?? It was basically just normal milk tea with bubbles BUT! the odd thing was that after drinking it, my mouth is getting kind of numb...weird. It was 7 kuai.

After that, me and Jennifer went in the mall, Erin and Nick went back to the dorms. So the converses at UCenter are 295 Kuai. I was just checking out the prices so i can compare when i go and buy the fake ones at YiFu mall. Then there was also a shoe store across the street so i went to check it out there and they charge 88 kuai haha! That means that if i go to YiFu mall, i shouldnt be paying over 88 kuai because since this shoe store was across the mall and closer to campus AND it was its own shop, it HAS to be more expensive. I probably should only be paying 60 kuai or less at YiFu mall for the same pair of shoes. If i go to YiFu mall today, i will bargain for 45 kuai, then ill prob actually pay like 50 or 55 for them i guess... so like 7 or 8 US Dollars? HEHE!

Oh and at UCenter, i went to Watson's and got shampoo....blue colored Herbal Essences. I got it but i cant read the chinese and i just assumed that one is shampoo and the other is conditioner because they were the opposite shapes (which is what herbal essences usually does to differentiate their shampoos and conditioners). Hopefully i got the right one!

Oh btw, funny story, i was walking to my dorm and then i was gonna put my key onto the door. Then! To my left, an Italian girl from my class comes out! ANd im like "HEY arent you in my class???" and turns out that her bf lives next door to me and she lives down the hall haha! So i said if the hw is hard or something, we should get together and figure it out.

Soo im washing my clothes right now. ughhhh so lazy to get a cafeteria card. If i go to YiFu mall after my laundry is done, then i guess i can try to find the place to get a cafeteria card because it should be on the way. AH today is sooo warm. It feels like 60!
