Hey guys, I'm back in action, after 4 months.
wtf. Such a terrible blogger. Never knew time passes so fast, and I have to guiltily admit that I have done exactly nothing. Anyway, it's December again! My favourite month of the year! *jumping in excitements* Mom and I have a thing for Christmas, esp mom. She'll be playing Christmas songs in the car even before December, and then Chinese New Year songs once December ends.
*cue dong dong qiang music*
Went to Shanghai with mom last October, wasn't really expecting much because it's China?! Am I being racist here? Maybe, but don't mock me on this. I've been to Guangzhou 8 years ago, and that trip wasn't anything near nice. The food, the people, and the environment... smh. But but! Shanghai was different. Maybe it's more developed, even the food is nicer. Hahah. But there's still this one thing that get on my nerves a lot! Queueing up is the thing they will never do! It's as if I'm being pretentious to want to queue up. Okay, to be fair, the Europeans I've met cut queue too
(very often). *roll eyes* And I'll be screaming in my head,
'BRUH, WHERE'S YOUR MANNERS? YOUR TEACHER NEVER TEACH YOU AHHHH?!!!!' (in the most cina way ever possiburrrr)
Done editing my Shanghai vlog, I even uploaded it on YouTube, but when I do my final check, I realized there's something wrong with it *strangle self*. So I gotta edit and upload it again, ugh! Meanwhile, here's some photos taken, video will be up next. ASAP, fingers crossed.

It's the time of the year, hairy crab season. |
I didn't tell anyone about this, the main reason why I wanted to visit Shanghai is for the 大闸蟹!I've been craving for it since I've watched a video someone shared on Facebook, then I kept telling myself that I must go to Shanghai for this!
(video link here) Hairy crab, checked!

My kind of breakfast |
It was raining most of the time when we were in Shanghai, we spent most of our time indoors or under the umbrella if not. It was just really frustrating, things would be perfect if it wasn't for the bad weather. But the trip was very delightful albeit very short, we've met some nice people and had very good food. I think I love Shanghai, I can totally survive there. Can't wait to be there again, there'sso much more to explore. And I miss the food already! Lol
