Seems like a pot-luck ran out of luck. Or is it so?

So many things have happened during the past few weeks. Some things haven't changed since the last time round. I am still carrying that spare tire around everywhere I go.
I haven't had time to actually blog about the latest happenings cause I was rushing reports of all nature and dealing with the stomachache that has been bugging me all week.

We had our very first (and possibly) last GIP potluck party at my house. MAN, there was just way too much food already. Bak Kut Teh, chicken curry, sweet and sour pork, fried rice, potato salad, vegetables, all the bbq food, chicken dish and blah blah blah. Way too much food. Brings a whole new level to the word: glutton. Haha.
Thanks to all the chefs and people who contributed to the success of the party.

Now, it would be morally insane for me to leave out the highlight of the evening. There was a pasta competition held on that very same evening between Flora and Junwei. Wonder why there was a competition? We will have to look back to the inner mongolia trip when they just couldn't come to a conclusion on who was the better pasta chef. Egos. Pride. Whatever you call it. LOL. At least it provided us with something to look forward to all evening.

Unfortunately for Flora (and darn, Junwei was really lucky), Junwei won by a pretty narrowly large margin(by a stroke of luck I conclude). The antics of the victory speech repeats itself everytime someone mentions the competition. It was hilarious. Some people just have to win, others just can't stand to lose. Haha.

Yes. I can't believe it. We're so going to TIBET. Repeat after me. TIBET! Its going to be such a cool trip I bet. Other than the thought of being stuck on the train for a good 48 hours, I am so looking forward to the trip already. Prepare my camera and get more SD card cause I will bring back to magnificence and beauty of the place. Wait for my pictures yea!

Shanghai will be the next destination straight after Tibet and that will conclude my 6 months here in China. I think I might miss some stuff here though. Cheap food and supposedly cheap shopping. Too many things I want to do but so little time!

Edmund will be coming over to Beijing for GIP too! Rocks! Now, it will be so nice to see him around for at least that one week before I start travelling around.

My parents were in town last week and it so was nice to see them again. Somehow my mum wasn't convinced I got rounder. Hello tummy! I felt pretty bad for asking them to bring back all my winter wear and some presents I got from them from my trips. I hope everyone likes what they got so far. I will be getting more presents soon if i still have money left after all the travelling :)

I completed my L.E.A.R.N hours too!!!!! YEA!! Congrats to myself.

Ok, now the downside of things. I have been feeling very irritated lately. I feel like strangling someone right now. I can't believe how the mere voice of one person can actually be so irritating. How does I actually demand you to do this and that and gives you the weird stare when you have other people things to do to? Isn't that kind of selfish? I tell myself everyday, I just have to bear with it for another 3 weeks. Please bring me through this period. I am like a pressure cooker waiting to explode.
