Nanjing trip

Just back from a work trip to Nanjing.... some snapshots, nothing much, just some views from the hotel room which happens to be the tallest building around the area... Typical of cities, it;s pretty much covered in smog.
Nanjing was pretty much a nice city i must say.. City planning is well-done, hey looks like Singapore, with trees and bushes lining along roads and pavements. Place is clean too, thanks to the numerous cleaners doin their jobs, just like Singapore. Weather is like Singapore too, though less humid.
Oh, why did i post the pic above? Cos this is the same shit that i drank for one of the dinner.. Gosh this thing is crazyyyyyyyyyy... Found out later at the duty free brouchure in the plane. "53% MOUTAI YINGBIN (MOUTAI VIP)MOUTAI YINGBIN (MOUTAI VIP) is the drink to serve to your VIPs. MOUTAI YINGBIN is carefully brewed to an excellent quality that is of a typical MOUTAI flavour."

Bloody hell!!!! 53%.. no wonder my head spins, heart throbbing and body hot after drinking that.. ^&*%^%#$%@. Oh and that small little bottle is almost $100sgd.. Crazyyyyy.....

going to detox a little since coming home.. In china = smoke loads, drink lots.. Smoke loads, cos ppl will offer all the smokers a ciggy once anyone lights up. So at times, even before i finish the current ciggy, u will find another one flying towards your direction. Drinks lots, cos they just love drinking, not in moderation though, They just cant enjoy their alcohol. The Chinese cant stand seeing alcohol in their glasses, so they just have to drink it down, dragging poor ppl like me into their torture. And when there;s no more alcohol in the glasses, they just have to fill it up to the brim and repeat the same shit again... arrhhhhhhHHH..

Property and real estate talk always crop up during meals. They just cant help it. There;s a boom now and i think they deem someone owning properties as a status symbol there.. Who cares... The way they drink and smoke, i think they cant enjoy much of their achievements in their later part of their lives anyway.. heh....
