080913 :: Excursion

Since this is the 1st Saturday I had in Tsinghua, I planned to do some excursion in the HaiDing District... And God, I woke up like 11pm and started out late...

The first thing I got to do is to get a "Octopus" card for bus and train... it is called "一卡通" here... As suggested on the travel guide, I got to the post office and asked for it... Mad, waited for so long and they told me that they don't have it... And the lady there asked me to go to the 中信銀行 at the S Gate... So I drove over there, and took off from my bike at the Gate... Damn!! The bank was so far away from the gate, and it is much close to the E Gate... She 老點 me... >< Anyway, got to the bank and tried to ask for a Student 一卡通 but they told me that they just have the standard card... Damn Again!! Where should I find the Student one...? Then they told me I need to go to the Zoo Station... Chi gun, its sooooo far away... I was so fed up and finally end up with the standard version... OK, will change it later when I getting used to all these odd things happening in BJ!! Tried to ask on the insurance stuff, yet no one is able to answer me... SHIT again!! Anyways...

I saw a fusion HK and French food restaurant during my way when looking for that stupid bank... Tried to get there but the buildng was built stupidly too... I can't find the entrance and kept walking around... Anyway, finally figure out the way, yet the restaurant was fully booked becase of a wedding event... I end up with having my lunch at a Cafe, which I had a fried seafood undo and tasted quite good... $35 and indeed quite expensive...

I got my bike and travel to the Lotus department store at the E gate... Saw a Snoppy wallet yet end up didnt buying it... Then I wandered around the Supermarket... Bought an Oxford dictionary, a pack of honey and also a pack of cornflakes... I tried to find the facial shop as recommended by Judy, and got inside for a try... I end up buying a very expensive package for 32 times at 1,600... Sorry mom, I think I am spending too much, yet my skin is really in quite a bad condition here ><

Back to my room and watched some Mandarin cartoons... Erm, I beg that's a good way to train up my listening skills...

Felt so hungry at 730 and got down to that buffet canteen, which they told me that it's closed... Shit again... Fly my bike to the ZiJiang canteen (starting to close too) and spent $4.6 for a bowl of spicy minced pork noodles + a soya egg... Taste not bad (especially the soya egg) though it looks not too good.

Did a night excursion in the Tsinghua campus after dinner as I would like to do some exercise... Didn't have a map this time so just travel with my instance... End up getting to a new place, the N gate, and found out that there's a bbq restaurant outside the gate... Since I had my dinner already, I will take a try later at this restaurant... It's smells quite appetizing =)

Will get out with Cafrany tomorrow... Bird have sent me his dissertation, and I am reading through... which is 130+ pages long... Well, it's quite new to me, and feeling a bit nervous on how to write out such things in next year...
