31st December: New Year’s Eve

We (Nina, Gong Yu Wei 龚雨薇, Li Zi 莉子, Hyun Wook, Ikepon, Toshio, Alex, Kanako and me) actually wanted to spend New Year’s Eve in Nina and my room but apparently everyone who does not live in that dorm has to live after 11pm… Alex and Kanako didn’t stay because Alex didn’t feel too good,  so they left earlier. The rest of us went to Ikepon’s room and just played games all night long, trying to pull an all-nighter in order to see the first sunrise of the new year.

Although some of us fell asleep and we got some unexpected guests, Julia and Ann (no idea how to write her name… she’s French) came around 5am and ordered McDonald’s around 6am. Well, in the end we did manage to be awake at 7am ad got to see a beautiful sunrise 

25th December: Japanese All You Can Eat

I’ve been sick for quite a few days, so I got some medicine… Apparently I have to take 8 pills 3 times a days. I do think thatit’s too much but it helped a lot! 

Anyway, on the 25th Ikepon introduced his language partner Wu Jiang Cheng 吴江城 to Nina and me and took us to a Japanese restaurant. We actually wanted to eat Korean BBQ but we waited for 1,5 hourand there were still a lot of people, so we just went to get Japanese food instead and it just cost 88 Yuan >_< Around 11€only!

Unfortunately, I was so into the food that I dodn't take any pictures ^^;

24th December: Christmas Party

I spent Christmas Eve with a few friends at Ikepon’s room and Nina even bought a cake  As you can see we didn’t eatthe cake the normal way.. We drew numbers and according to those numbers Gong Yu Wei 龚雨薇 had to be fed by Hyun Wook, Ikepon wasn’t allowed to use his hands, while Richard had to use his hands, Nina had to ask Richard if she wasallowed to eat every time she wanted to, Julia had to use chopsticks and I had to feed Diana while being blindfolded  

23rd December: Queuing

The semester is about to end and that means that I have a chance to finally get the room I wanted in the very beginning! In order to apply for a room we had to get a number, which were going to be distributed on the 23rd at 12pm and then apply on the 24th.  

Guess when people started queuing? 22nd, 8pm. When I got there (23rd, 6am) there were already 40-50 people there. In one picture you can still see some guy sleeping on the ground and oh my god there were so many beer cans and so much chicken… I guess Koreans really like chicken and beer?

In one picture you can see Yosuke trying to do his homework at around 8am…We had to skip classes on both days in order to get good numbers and to apply for those rooms <_<

20th December: Russian Restaurant

I went with a few friends to a Russian restaurant and I would have never thought that I would miss mashed potatoes so much…Thanks to Victoria we got to eat lots of delicious food  and those pancakes… 

Although we went to a Russian restaurant, we shared all the dished instead of everyone having his/her own plate and somehow it ended with Victoria, Minori and Han Wook cutting the food for Inhyung, Yosuke and me ^^;

 

19th December: Food Festival

Every class had to prepare something special from a foreign country. While my class decided to do Sangria (alcoholic drink), Nina’s class made pancakes  And there was just so much food~ Onigiri, Malaysian food sets, cakes, fruits dipped in chocolate, and so much more! 

We had quite a lot of fun selling stuff and we could sell all of it, there was whiskey and vodka (I think) left and we just sold that ‘special mix’ to a Russian girl… In the end we even sold our remaining cups to other people xD 

Btw, Nina and I are wearing those reindeer clips from Shuk Ting  Thank you~ 

17th December: A special restaurant – revolutionary classics

I had dinner with Nina’s classmates and her teacher and they took me to a rather unusual restaurant. There was a stage and people were performing revolutionary classics and singing songs and the Canadian guy Alex could sing along to almost every song! While the others and me understood basically nothing… But the food was good and it was a nice experience 

Although we were a bit worried about Ikeda and Toshio because.. well they’re from Japan and the people could have performed something anti-japanese ^^; But as you can see they were very enthusiastically swinging the red flag xD

16th December: 怒放之青春再见 Forever Young

A friend of mine 莉子 Li Zi told Nina and me about a movie which was going to be played at the university, so we went thereand one of the actors even appeared and answered questions from fans and gave away a few signed CDs! Actually a duowas supposed to appear on the stage but one of them couldn’t make it, forgot the reason why, but the duo is called 水木年华
