Evelyn Tan: THE SHANGHAI TRIP

THE SHANGHAI BUN

Sorry for this late entry, been very caught up with my work lately, after i came back from shanghai. Projects just pile up like tusnami attack NO 2!

Well the developed parts of Shanghai is very much similar to that in singapore, and the not so develop parts of Shanghai is like the early days of Singapore. The branded goods are not as cheap as Singapore, but the brandless shopping spree that we went on is not as satisfying as that in guanzhou and shenzhen.

Many of the developed areas look similar to Singapore, there is even the look alike durian building!! GOSH

but i seriously feel that the trip was a unneccessary one. We were all looking towards visiting Stachi and stachi, at least that was the main reason why many of us decided to come for this trip. But we didn't manage to visit this company in the end.

Ok and so on the first day there, after seeing the expensive goods in Shanghai me and nessa though we will not spend much during this trip. Our big lugaggue will still be half empty. BUt we said that a little too early, nessa over spend the amount she had and my lugague was twice as heavy when i got back to singapore 20KG!!!! hahaha

SECOND FINDING: there is somehow a saying that Shanghai girls are very pretty, but i tried my best to look out for pretty girls but to no avail!

THIRD FINDING: the hotel we stayed in is called MOTEL 168 and its vending machine vendors DUREX CONDOMS hahaha, and i meant all flavours. THis hotel funcitons like HOTEL 81 of singapore but there is a really nice road side store near the hotel! One satay sick of chickens about three wings cost less than S$1 let alone beef satay sticks it cost less than tat. THey had the baby lobsters too and 1.2Kg of these lobsters cost us only S$4. FOod is really cheap in shanghai menx! hahahaha
