5 things why you should learn Chinese.

I know I haven't been blogging regularly and have been getting lectures from friends that I should blog more often.
This entry was inspired while on my way home today .
HAHAHA.

Warning: Very wordy post.

My chinese is the best among all my other subjects ( actually also not very good) and I often communicate in mandarin.
I'm so glad that I have non-chinese friends that can speak fairly well mandarin .
I always ask my non-chinese friends to learn Chinese and they always ask me why .
 And they will tell me this, " It's okay , I'm not a Chinese ! "
But you know what, Chinese is an essential in Singapore now.
Apart from the market opening in China, I realised that we are also facing these few things.

1. Out of 10 people in the street, you will find at least 3 are Chinese. Talking loudly and might be bitching about you. Oh no. Not just Chinatown , I'm talking about island-wide.When you are in a crowded train, see a senior citizen/injured person/pregnant woman and wants to help get the person a seat ON THE RESERVEDSEAT. If the person happens to be a Chinese, SPEAK TO THE PERSON IN CHINESE. Just in case the person start cursing and swearing at you in CHINESE.


2. More than half of our SBS bus drivers who drift can't understand English. If you wanna ask for directions from the bus driver, make sure you can convey the message in Chinese. Best if you can mention the road address in Chinese. Oh yes, maybe that's the reason we are paying higher bus fares.

3. When you step into a family-based restaurant/eatery, don't be surprised that they are not locals. Do note that you need to know how to order what you want to eat in Chinese. Be very grateful if the menu have ALL the pictures of the food offered. Even if you manage to order your food in English. You still have to know what it is called in Chinese. Reason? Order might be repeated in Chinese.

4.When you go shopping, don't be shocked. Sometimes I do ask myself, why are things so expensive and of cheap quality (especially my sleepyhead days). I thought I was dreaming because sometimes it reminded me of my China immersion trip & some other overseas trips.  Don't ask yourself why things are still so expensive. Always remember that you are STILL in Singapore.

5. Ah huh, this one is important to me, thank goodness my religion helped me a lot in my Chinese foundation. If you are intending to work in the service line, it is even more important. That's when hearing skills comes in. Being able to understand what your customers is saying is important. If not you will end up like this. Misunderstandings and customers making a big fuss. (click)


Fret not if you need time to find a tutor for Chinese or in midst of learning.
Because we always have sign language.
Peace everybody peace.

That's all folks !

Tea Break @ Cawaii Koohii

Taking a break and gossiping chitchatting.
Nice place if you want to catch up with friends.

Megazip is funnnnnn.

Have you been to  megazip adventure park , located in sentosa? :)
Recently , nuffnang brought 13 g+ members to the adventure park to experience it !

Made a lot of new friends that day!
Thanks nuffnang :)

I took very little pictures because I didn't really have the extra energy to.

And I was afraid that I might damage my gadgets.

Getting tagged !

Fellow bloggers putting on the harness !

I took very little pictures because I didn't really have the extra energy to.

And I was afraid that I might damage my gadgets.
But they actually provide a pouch for us to hold on to our valuables.

We tried the Climb Max(obstacle course) , parajump, rock climbing and of course the megazip(flying fox) , 4 in total.

2 years away from all this activities makes me a little struggle .
I choose level one for the obstacle course cause I got no guts.
The obstacle course is so much easier to complete then those high elements we did in secondary schools.

Rachel and I waiting for our turns to try ClimbMax LEVEL 1

Para jump is the one that I least like among the 4 . The pull of gravity is so scary I nearly teared .
The other bloggers loved it , but I will not try it again.
It is something like jumping down from a 5storey building .
Try it if you wanna have a feel of committing suicide by building jumping .
Rather interesting as it is something I never tried before.
I told myself I will not try this ever !
It was so scary . Treasure life people.
Love lifeeeee

I had long nails and I couldn't hold the 'rocks' properly.
Rock climbing is tough ! It is super energy consuming .
I gave up half way because I was mad tired .
I only had 50% of my energy left when I did my rock climbing .

I love the megazip the most!
Not scary at all I swear !
I thought that it would be scary and might killed me or anything bad .I keep chanting ' I am brave, I am very brave'
I was so worried that my shoes will fly out or something !
The feeling of flying down is super shiok.
If I have another chance I will do this again and camwhore while doing it !

All these pictures are taken when we are done with the Megazip .




Imagine you are stuck there ( look at arrow)
Don't worry lah , you will have macho man to save you .

Returning the pouch and collecting our bags !





Tips for Vain girls who want to try :
-  WEAR CROCS.
Crocs is probably the best shoes to wear for Megazip .

LIKE THIS.
If you think that wearing sneakers are the best you are so wrong.
What happens when you reach the sandy beach at the end of your Megazip (flying fox)
Oh , your shoes will be filled when sand and making you walk awkwardly.

I wore my kitty x crocs pumps.
And I was slightly better.
I could remove the sand I got from walking , but the water was stuck inside.
Making me feel erm. weird and making my feet wet :{

- TIE UP YOUR HAIR AND PIN UP YOUR FRINGE :)
Trust me, its bloody HOT
- WEAR SLIGHTLY LONGER SHORTS .
I think some of the girls and I wore shorts that are short.
Okay I think it didn't make sense, but okay.
The shorts will keep going in between with the help of the harness.
Get what I mean ?
- WEAR A COMFORTABLE BOTTOM.
Preferably not denim material.
It will hurt you .
50% of the time , the girls were complaining about how painful it was ...

-  DON'T GO WITH MANICURE.
I mean you can try, just wondering if you can do your rock climbing well with muthaeffing long nails.
I had long nails when I was there , so  I know.


Yupps that all I wanna say .

Loves, 
A.
