As you may all have realised I didn't manage to update this blog when I was away in China. Blogger seems to be blocked in China. So I signed up to the famous Chinese chatroom - QQ. What a great software to download! Highly recommended. Personally think it's way better than MSN. At the moment I am addicted to QQ music.

Shantou, China

Rich's family were very nice. Stayed in Shantou for about 5 days and tasted many tasty dishes. But no offence, personally I still think Wuhan has much more tasty dishes to my liking. Well, as they say, photos say a thousand words. I have selected a few, enjoy!

We spent a night in HK before we headed to Shantou.
Martin's Dad's cooking is just unbelievably tasty!
Breakfast in a local HK restaurant, yum!
My favourite papaya sticky rice desert

Rich's high school, can you spot my super curly hair? Shantou is so humid!

My fav! Not so kin of this one, too oily.
Family cat, adorable!

Christina (rich's sister), her bf and me
鲍鱼面，好吃！
Fried beef, so tender, I loved it!
Most importantly, I got to meet up with Katrina! What a wonderful young lady. Even though the breakfast tasted very average, I did very much enjoy the company.
Overall, I had a good time in Shantou. The weather was warm/cool and humid but the people I met were very nice. It's great to meet Rich's family, his friends and find out more about his 'embarrassing' past (LOL). Next entry WUHAN!

And as my dearest Ruby JJ has said: 'last but not least, I must thank myself.' HAHA! Thanking myself for working hard this month and securing a job position that I truly like. For giving myself a great present for Chinese New Year and not having to worry about job hunting when I am on holiday. (Thick skinned right? haha.... I'm sorry, but really, it's true, bare with me). I am proud to say I achieved 100% (PERFECT) for my numerical test on the day and went on to the interview stage. After a few hours, I got a golden phone call telling me I've got the job. How exciting. I couldn't scream to the top of my voice because I was on Oxford Street. Might scare a lot of people.

Marketing Manager! Yes... Marketing! Something I adore, I think its been running in my blood. Haha. Let's just wait till I finally get to do it for real. I might have to eat my words. Opps. For now, I'll still want to enjoy my Chinese New Year with my beloved Grandparents and relatives. How I have missed them. It's been 2 years and a bit now! A very long time.

China! I'm leaving tomorrow! First, I'll be going to Richard's (my bf) hometown in Shantou to meet his family and his friends. Then I'll be setting off to Wuhan, my dear dear homeland! How exciting. I have been packing and packing but I still don't know what to bring exactly. Shantou is rather warmer than London but Wuhan is freezing cold. Sometimes I wish my room can fly with me. Why can't someone invent some kind of machine that allows us to bring our room everywhere we go? I would definitely invest in that.

My flight tomorrow is in the evening at around 9pm. So I'll be heading to Heathrow at around 3pm just to avoid the rush hour traffic. No make up, comfy clothes. I usually travel like that. Please excuse me if I do not update. I'm not abandoning blogging but I just have to check if I could write in blogspot in China. I've heard my blog is not accessible in China. We'll see! If I can blog, I'll definitely let you know straight away. If not, please stay tuned in for my March come back.

It's time to celebrate!

First round - Maths Test :( it's amazing how fast you throw away all your maths skills when you finish your academic education. Tried doing a maths test that should take only 1 hour but I finished it in 3 hours. =_='' PANIC! NO! This is not the time to panic. More maths for me today! I'll make sure this works out.

Second round - interview (only when you pass the maths bit, so I better pass!)

Wish me luck guyssss... I need all the luck there is in this world to find a job I like at this time of the year.

Photos: This is how much Rich and I have been eating when I first moved down to London in October. I love to cook and I cooked loads. Both of us could finish nearly everything in one meal! =_= but for now, we have changed our eating habits and I am now a pro at making salads. haha.

On my way to London, on the train... what a beautiful sight!

Yantong's cooking is very good. Kimichi and Tofu goes together perfectly!

And due to the fact that Rich is away these few days to Bristol for work, he felt bad that he's not able to take care of me when I'm sick. So instead, these pink roses were meant to make up for his absence. :) big smiles.
