I was kind of slacked off due to many reasons. Uni , work and my own reasons. Hey, no hate tho, I'm writing it right now.
So continue from the previous post - here
After the CNY eve, my cousin took me to meet his friends. We rented a room at one of the hotel ( i know you think too much, dont worry. We kept it PG). We had few games and around 11pm, we went home.
Day 5
The next morning, I went to my grandma's (dad's side) grave and visited her. If you are Asian then you'd probably know what we do in a grave visit. As Chinese tradition, we burn the paper money and candles. As the more we burn the more my grandma is going to get it in heaven as heaven money (if that makes sense). In order to visit my grandma's grave we need to climb the hill.
Here is a photo of myself after reaching the top of the hill!
Then we need to walk about 15 more mins until my grandma's grave.
I was having fun doing this, only if the tower was not blurred by the stupid auto-focus.
only if this photo had better exposure. ;L
Later that day I went to my uncle Hong's place. I loved to go to my uncle H's place when i was in China, they used to own a store and I used to get foods for free from the shop. HAHA. When i left my cousin was just a little 2 YO toddler, now my cousin goes to primary school and had her very own sibling! I doubt the next time im going back my little cousin would be in primary school again and my other cousin would have be in secondary school. And my friends would have had babies already. I could go on and on talking about it but i decided not to waste the time. Lets get on with the photos!
does my little cousin looks like my baby ? according to my other cousin, i look like a mom. Maybe i do. what can i do ?

haha i had unevenly drew brows.
My little cousin is on my granpa's back and this is the baby sling wrap for Chinese people. We wrap them at the back with flowers or patterns embroidered on the straps and at the back too.
me in a baby sling wrap. haha got my niece on my back! this is a preview, watch out for day 7-8 !
ofc, we feasted ourselves. Yummy authentic foods!

I stayed there about few hours and I went out at night again with my cousin Hao. We went to the Walmart, yes it's the American Walmart. we had one at my city for a very long time ago too. I should run a Woolworth at my city too. HAHA
my city at night
told you i love jumping photo! You jump i jump ! jks.
just inside the Walmart, having some silly fun. HAHA
which ear warmer suited me better ? pink or blue ?
You think my day just ended there ? You are wrong. Then my uncle Hong took me to the night eat street market to feast me, ofc , nom nom has always been my motto.
For those who have been to Aisa, would defs understand Asian's way of living. Night market is a very important cultural aspect in the Asian contemporary culture.
Food, Grilled spicy fish, and you guys probs can't stand this, as this is superrrrr spiccyy.
So here is the end of day 5, you probably thought thats the end of the post. HAHA, I know I was surprised by my super memory!
DAY 6
I spent 5 days in Guiyang and it's time for me to go to my mum's hometown and visit my grandpa (mum's side). So the next day, Cousin Li ( the beautiful one), took me to the bus station and we rode a 6 hrs long trip to Wengan (good luck trying to pronounce this, or you can just simplely say $^#%).
my grandpa, he had a holiday with my grandma with us just a few months before my grandma's death. And it was totally shocking to me and my family. I almost didn't believe it. And I don't know how grandpa dealt with it, so I talked with him about grandma's death. This topic should be banned but I just kind of want my grandpa to talk out his thoughts and feelings out to someone who actually wants to listen. After that i knew my grandpa indeed had hard-time dealing with the absence of my grandma. He told me:" everything he does reminds him of my grandma because they always do things together." I didn't say much as I don't know what to reply my grandpa with it. All I know is that he needs more companies which that I cannot give at the moment. I should really be calling him more often.
I told you i was popular with kids or ( i forced them to take photos with me HAHHAAHAHA) Shh its a secret.
I m feasting again. Not sorry at all.
Alright, that is pretty much the end of the day 6, it is a much shorter day compares to day 5 as i had spent about 6 hrs on the bus, by the time i reached Wengan, it was already arvo.
XOXO
Watch out for day 7&8 !
