Summer Holiday in Beijing

July 26- 31 August 2011

 I do really enjoy my summer holiday even theres a bit problem here and there, but everything can be handled and i spent so much fun with the gals. :) let me introduce you to my pretty gals that i met in Beijing. Yessy Sutana (yessy) and Andreani Triningsih (Ani). I and Ani call Yessy 'Mommy' because her personality and her behavior like mommies. lols. She like pets, especially dogs, like to try snack(just like me), skinny(just like me), sometimes can be cute, but she can be hideous if she want. :P she looks pretty and calm, but in fact she's really talkative and funny. she looks so young, even in fact she's 7 years older than me and ani.

Okay, now i decribe Ani. Ani is one of the beautiful girl that i ever met. she's so pretty with the white skin, big eyes, wonderful eyelashes and thick black hair. her personality is quite the same with me, she's also skinny and really nice. a bit weird sometimes. :P
she want to be fat so badly, but the strange thing is she doesnt like eating. lols. not like me and yessy, she didnt like snack, but she loves pork so much. she loves shopping, korean movies, korean people, korean language( but she's not korean fans), and she's so dilligent. she smart, but dont ask her about the way, map, bus number or a kind of. 
its very co-insidence that we didnt back to indonesia. :p
so, we manage the schedule for holiday. ;)
On weekdays we have chinese course at Wudaokou. Its quite far from our place, and it takes approx 1 hour to get there by subway or by bus. Wudaoukou is like a korean city, where many korean lives there, and also you can found korean saloon, korean boutiques, korean stores, korean market, and plenty of korean restaurants.
in there, there also bakery like Paris Baguette and Tour La jours. There also malathang, topokki, and many snacks near Hua Lian mall, and theres also BHG (super,arket) where you can buy international food and stuff there. In wudaokou, there are many restaurant who serve Kao Rou(grill meat) and many flavours of Fried Chicken, and theres one restaurant that hv been my fav since i arrived here. ;) they sell grilled chicken that you can mix with seafoods, and they ill mix it with kimchi and mozarella cheese. umm.. yummy! :D

okay, if go by subway we must transfer to line 13 at Xizhimen than go to wudaokou. and when we go back by bus, we use 690 then stop at Xishilukoubei then continue 102/103 to Fuwaixikou, or you can use the short one. use 562 then stop at Xizhimen Nan, then cont with 106 to Fuwaixikou. ;)

i admitted that its tiring. because i must go from my dorm at 1.30 pm then we arrived at almost 18.00 then we must go to the market to buy the ingredients, then start cook at 19.00. we usually finished cook and eat at 20.45, then we must do the homework, or usually i felt lazzy then i just browsing, or drawing. :P

but because we re doing together with friends, times flies so fast and even its tiring but i felt so much fun! our schedule was:
monday, wednesday, thursday: courses then cooking
tuesday and friday: going somewhere
weekend: i go to church and after thet we can go to cafe or just having the girl talk or playing card or do something fun in one of our room. :P

so, we do pajamas party...
....we went to Raffles Mall(Dongzhimen). it so much fun! there are plenty malls to there, and we had dinner at Sizeriya. we all have steaks. ;) me, definitely with cheese! ^^
....we go to xidan market and mall, we ate ice cream, pancakes, nai cha, and do window shopping. ;)
...we went to Wangfujing, window shopping, and ate the snacks there. so fun!
...we went to Dongwuyuan market, shopping around.
...we went to 85 degrees to eat our fav bread!!
...we went to Xisiluoubei, going around and eat much things. ;)

and yesterday we just cut our hair at korean saloon, we were very satisfied with the service. they are very nice and the price isnt expensive. ;) we ate malathang, prata bread, sweet potatoes, and we were so excited look many sellers in front of Hua Lian at night. They sell much things. Books. Chinese and import books. Accecories. Clothes. Dress. Legging. Note Books. Audios. Fruits. Dolls. Toys. and much much more!!

and what we cooked:
huo guo(steam boat) and prata bread
kangkung cah terasi(veggie dish from indonesia) and fried mushroom
gado-gado(mix veggies with nut sauce) and bakwan(corn that miz with the flour then fried) => we ate so much til soooooooo full.
butter fried chicken and mun tofu(tofu that mix with prawn, garlic)
bai chai soup and many other soups ;)
rendang(beef, potatoes,tofu taht mix together with reandang sauce, and coconut milk) and egg buncis
omellete with sausage and cheese ; corn soup
sweet and sour chicken
mushroom broccoli
kwetiaw bun (yummy!)


then, yesterday i and yessy went home so late because we're almost didnt get bus to home.
we almost desperate because of that and decide to take taxi if theres no bus til 11.30 pm.
the bus and subway will stop operate all the operation at 11.00 pm from the first place they're going. so, we're really shocked when we found out that its almost 10.30 pm when we still looking the books.(the books is so cheap, i bought 3 books for 30 yuan!! :D Pride and Prejudice, Pretty Liars and Sleeping Arrangements by Sophie Kinsella a.k.a Madeleine Wickham) then we run and get 562 easily. but when we arrived at Xizhimen Nan station and waiting for 106 we're getting frustated because til 11.30pm theres no 106. so, we decide to take any bus that going at least 1 station after this, because during that 20 minutes theres no bus or i can say so rare, so we decide to take any bus, then we DID it! we took 44 to Fuchengmen Bei then we walk to Fuchengmen, then we wait 10 minutes til 101 coming. we're sooooo happy and relieved that we dont need to walk. hahahaha.. :) :)
