Ladies Night!!

So last night was Ladies Night, at Nanjie, free drinks for girls from 9-1!
Amazing!
I wish they had these kind of deals in Newcastle, it would be so good. Although, actually I can see why they wouldnt have these kind of deals in Newcastle because it would get very messy. Last night I went with Vanessa, Emma, Lin and Peter (honorary girl!) and thinking about Vanessa and Lin the two Chinese girls had half or maybe even less than half the amount of drinks me and Emma (a fellow Northerner from the UK!) had. So putting it that way Im not sure the bars and clubs in the UK could afford to do Ladies Nights!

Anyway, we had a lovely night chatting and gossiping like girls do, and I realised that I have actually made some really good friends here, and I hope that we can stay in touch! I think with facebook and email its much easier now to stay in touch than it would have been years ago, so fingers crossed! And who knows I may be back again and I have a feeling those three at least are likely to still be here!!
After Nanjie, we went to Juicy, 50 RMB, open bar... but I felt I had to hold back as much as it is my last week and you only live once, I did have to be in work this morning. So I was sensible andVanessa and I left. We managed to adopt two german guys from somewhere inbetween the bar and our taxi to Juicy, but after spilling beer on us, chatting crap, and not paying for the cab they buggared off! To be honest - we were relieved!! 

What is wierd in China is proper restaurants are still open at 2/3am, until the clubs shut basically, so Vanessa wanted food and not food as in your normal after night out food, she got zhou, a chinese porridge made from rice, kinda of like when you make sticky rice but with too much water, with some vegetables in it. It was surprising and another thing I hadnt tried yet.

Yesterday, people were surprised by my Chinese twice, once was with Vanessa when I shouted for the waitress "fuwuyuan" and apparently had a chinese accent! (I think alcohol releases the Chinese from within) And the second time was when I asked for three glasses of water at lunch and they were like how do you know that? I reminded them I have had about 20 hours of chinese class, I hope I've learnt something!! Haha! Looking forward to studying more and coming back and being a pro and shocking them all.

So on that note,
Zaijian! xxx
