day 2 in chengdu. temperature: about 6degrees. outfit: 6 layers of tops + 3 layers of bottoms + 2 gloves.

HI GUYS it's frrrrreeezzzinggg here in china. that aside, it's a really pretty place. the university i'm staying at is massive and everyone here cycles to get from one block to another. but i walk. it's really those drama scenes where you see long stretches of roads with just naked trees without leaves by the side and big fields of dry grass every where. very picturesque and relaxing. definitely not something you can find in Singapore.

the pace of living is distinctly slower here!! or maybe because classes have yet to start. but it's really different because no one exactly rushes here. but the toilets.................... hahahaha they're all squats so i guess it's hygienic?? positively thinking. but i suck at using squats. (LOL just remembered when the dudes asked me to buy a lifebuoy to use it as a toilet seat). but yes other than that + not having room and shower heaters (despite the winter conditions).. i like it here, surprisingly.

almost every local here is amazed that we (yes guys, me included okay.) can communicate in chinese. and they are all really impressed by that so YAY the joy of being bilingual. i'm blogging instead of doing my assignment that's due this coming friday because haha distractions > concentration.

thanks for sending me off<3!!

ciaoz!! xx
