day 21

The day before our written test! & the weather suddenly gets colder!After we finish our practical lessons, Ms Neo let us off early to revise for tomorrow written test. We made use of the whole afternoon studying and decide to have a NICE dinner to reward and motivate ourselves. And so there we go to the backstreet western restaurant which Ms Neo told us that the teacher went frequent to eat the western there. With the rain still refuse to stop, we carried our umbrellas and walk against the cold chilling rain. It was really cold that we were all shivering, but still we wanted to try that restaurant.
The restaurant was neatly decorated but instead of seeing people eating western food we saw people eating Chinese food. We were wondering if we went to the wrong shop. Indeed it is “Lin Mon Le” which in English is “Happy Lemon restaurant”? Well, I find out that no matter what the local there still prefer Chinese food compared to western food. Anyways, we ordered chicken chop and pork chops. The service there was still OK. The lady who served us seems quite friendly. I noticed that in China people hardly say “sorry” and “thank you”. So when she served us and we said”thank you” to her, she says in a very grateful voice “no problem” (in Chinese). And when she saw us looking for hot water, she said she’ll boil for us. It is long since I saw a waitress in china which treats us with such good service.
