pre-tibet

just came back from the tibet briefing at hx's house.

here it goes.

its almost 99.9% that we'd get gao yuan fan ying.
it's only how bad it goes.

looking at the medications we have to prepare, it looks like its gonna be more than my clothes.

the water won't boil, so there's no coffee, tea or noodles.

food will be spicy, with loads of meat, so good luck to me.

can't bathe on the first day, cause will exert too much energy, when we ain't used to the weather.

the people there, as the guide says, is more ye3 man2.

there are seemingly no toilets on the way so any business has to be done behind umbrellas.

and... there's no aircon in the bus.

can't say anything that has the words 'free tibet'. or china will deport u. loL!

cannot get excited. else be left with no oxygen.
(p.s. wonder how those ppl have sex. lol.)

for those with partners, no concern should be shown to the other party. else 2 will be sick instead of one.

lastly, the guide HAD TO SAY THAT a group that went there today called to tell her that some road collapsed.

the group saw a bus flew off, and over 10 ppl died instantly.

and that 'you better not catch a flu, cause in tibet, gan3 mao4 = si lu yi tiao'

-.-''

we'd be going to a hot spring though. heee. never been to one.


transport wise, this time hai3 lu4 kong1 also will take.

there's a 27 hr train ride too! 0.o!!

somehow it feels like im going through a life and death journey.
one which requires a lot of money!

taken at T2 yesterday.



so synchronised, the way they clean.
so amused.

flight delayed for 45 mins.
at 10.10, we were no. 10 in the queue.
the weather was disgusting too.
one of the worse turbulence from sg-sh.
hopefully the plane to tibet won't be like that.
really really freaky.



flight back.
