DAY 34 IN SICHUAN

Shopping Day at Mianyang! :D
Our initial plan was supposed to go Chengdu to shop, but there was a riot at Chengdu ytd. 
Heard it's becos of the china and jap bad relationship, becos of diaoyu island's territory if im not wrong. 
HAIIII. so our teachers changed the place to mianyang instead.
ok lah, it's better than none :D


We took a train to mianyang!
One hr plus ride. :D 
The train ride was so cool! 
We were late and so,
All of us ran from one end to the other end to board the train (more than 150m), 
with the train officers were chasing us, shouting at us to hurry up. HEH.




Check out our nice fingers! :D
Mine's leopard prints. the one just below the lady finger.
After the train ride, was a 15 min bus ride! 
Took a public bus, Bus 10.
My first experience on a china public bus. :D :D
Finally, reached the central of mianyang, where all the large shopping malls were located.
Lunch was great, ate at a small eating street which Tom, our china friend recommended. 




Shopping next! :D
The shopping was not too bad, not as good as Chengdu though.


OMG. All of us encountered a Riot! 
It was the first time in my whole entire life!
Heard the protestors were university students.
They were carrying large china flags and anti-jap flags, attacking all the japanese products, shops and cars!!
Ajisen was attacked by them! 
The shop owners of electronic shops kept all their items immediately and closed their shops when they saw those protestors.




Were supposed to catch the last train at 5.30pm,
But cos of the riot, there was a massive traffic jam. 
So all of us, got down the bus and started walking/running, hoping that we would not miss the last train.


On our way, we witnessed Japanese cars that were already flipped over by those protestors!!
As we walked further down, more happening stuffs happened!
We saw a large group of protestors, getting ready to turnover a Japanese car!
Glass bottles throwing here and there. 
Police trying to stop them, but to no avail.
OMG. Scary shit! What if there was explosion?!


I was so stunned by all these. 
But it was once in a lifetime, really an eye-opening experience.
We don't get to see riots like this so often, since we are living in Singapore.


At night, there was a farewell party for us organised by the hairstylists below our hostels! :D
And there was fireworks too!
These fireworks were the largest among all the other fireworks that we had put. 
Lovely!~ A great night, awesome party.




Today was really happening, unforgettable, invaluable and wonderful.
If only my life in Singapore can be as awesome as my China life.. HAH! :D
