I got my hair straightened! Yes, you heard me! I. Got. My. Hair. Straightened.
And the process was really painful.
First, they wash your hair. Not much painfulness there.
Then, they dry your hair, and leave you sitting there.
After they come back, they put this smelly chemical thingy on your hair, and let you sit there for like, half an hour or less. And that totally killed my nose.
When they come back, they put this wrapper thingy around your hair, and they use this thing to heat your hair for like, another hair an hour or less.
So when they get back, they take the wrapper thingy off, and then they wash your hair.
Then... finally, finally, FINALLY!!!
They straighten your hair. And the guy kept on pulling my hair hella hard, which totally didn't help. -.-"
After they straighten your hair with that iron thingy, they put this other chemical in your hair. My cousin says it smells like apples - not like I deny it. Much. I though I caught a bit of an apple scent in that chemical, but then, it didn't smell that bad.
Then they made me sit there for fifteen minutes.
Then, then, THEN they washed my hair with all this shampoo stuff, and tada! My hair was straight~~
Let's see now...
I started the process at about 9:00 PM, and the process ended at 12:30AM. Well, I think you get the idea of how long and painful the process is...
Anyway, I have a picture here... Just lemme try to upload it.
And I fail at that... XD Just ask me for it or something - I'll send it over. o-o

The Adventures of Salsal and Her First Day in Shanghai!
Wheee~~~~ I have finally arrived in Shanghai! And then I am off to Beijing, where there is...
... no internet!
Anyways, yesterday, our plane was like, late. Really late. Kind of. If you consider twenty minutes really late, then yeah... XD
So we waited at the airport for like, two hours. When we were supposed to wait for like... I don't know, really.
And then the plane came. And we went on it. And my cousin and I sat in the middle aisle, with this other guy next to us.
And then... after twenty minutes of waiting for people to board, the plane takes flight!
It rolls into the flying track thingy! It gets its engines ready! Then, it starts running and the passengers in it bounces up and down! And then it flies! Wheeeeeeee~~~~~
Anyway, over half the time, my cousin and I were drawing, talking, or... yea. Talking. Let's put it that way. The guy next to us asked if I took drawing classes or something, and I was like "No, I learned this on my own." And then he complimented me on "how talented I was, being able to learn to draw like that on my own". I think I'm being cursed, cuz talking to strangers make me feel funny.
And then I ate bag of peanuts, and drank a cup of sprite. And then we talked for a bit. Then I took a piece of gum. And the landing killed my ears, and the gum was all gooey. And got stuck in my hair. Kind of. My fingers were sticky, a tip of my hair was polluted, and my mouth was sticky. xD
The plane arrived at about 12:40 AM, which was technically the next day.
And then we got off, got our baggage claims, all that junk. And then after we got our baggage, we went to the place where we wait for a taxi, and...
... the place was barren. And there was this HUGE line. And we waited for a long time, and got onto a taxi at 1:15, which... yea. xD I'm impatient.
There is only one phrase to describe the taxi ride: Laughing attacks galore!
And we arrived at 2:00AM at our hotel. I can't say I am very fond of it. I prefer the hotel in Shenzhen better xD
And then I slept at 3:00 AM, because I had to take a shower. And I went to sleep with wet hair.
I woke up at about 12:00PM the next morning, and then ate cup noodles for lunch/breakfast. And then my cousin, brother, and I spent the afternoon sitting on the couch going on the internet and watching Death Note.
Then, at night, we went out to eat, and then we went shopping. And then my cousin and my brother needed to go to the bathroom, and they didn't want to go to the public bathroom because it smells, so we went back to the hotel. XD

Unlucky Amusement
I... am cursed. Because my day today was horrible. Lemme tell you about it.
We were going to this amusement park today, and I thought it was going to be a blast! Well, guess what? It wasn't... ._."
It was pouring at like, a billion gallons a second, so we were forced to go in. And then we saw this ride, and we went in line, and waited for like an hour. Then we went on the ride, and all we did was shoot red dots with a gun while sitting in this cart, and it barely lasted five minutes.
And we went out, and there wasn't any rain. Well, not much. Just a little drizzle. So we walked around, and almost all the rides sucked.
We walked for a bit, and then there was this roller coaster thingy. It wasn't the best, but good enough.
So we ran for the line, and it turns out that we were first. Then we found out that they were testing the roller coaster, because it just finished raining. So we waited. For over an hour. And then we got impatient and walked away, and a minute after that, the ride was open.
I was pissed. Seriously. I think that the God of Luck has something against me today.
And we ate lunch after that, and the rice was all burnt, the chicken had all these pieces of bone stuck in them, and the bok choy was bitterish. But I liked the orange juice!
Then there was this ride that was like sixty meters/feet high, and the line was short. My cousin and I got in the line, but right before our turn, I had to poo. So I went to the bathroom, with those holes in the ground, and then when I finished pooing, it turns out that my cousin was done with the ride. Without me.
And then we went for this other roller coaster, and I slipped on the way. There's this stain on my white pants, right where the butt is, and then my arm was like, red. After I washed the debri. And then I slipped again! And had to walk back to the water fountain. Nice, eh?
But then the rest of the day was decent.
We went on this fast roller coaster, which was fun, then we rode on this water ride twice, and I was soaked, and then we went on this spinny ride that makes us go upside down, and we rode another one that tosses us high in the air and spins us there. So all was good.
And then after we finished the rides, we went to watch this show. A part of it was boring, but most of it was really cool! I was jealous. The women who were performing were so skinny! O.O
THEN we went back to the hotel, and my stomach started hurting. And then we went to eat dinner with my dad's friend's wife and her kid, and he's thirteen. And big. And scary. And clings onto his game boy, so that wasn't a very pleasant of an experience.
And my stomach still hurts, sadly. ._."
All in all, it was a bad day.

What Do You Think of Your Friends? A blogthing before I head off to Beijing, where there are no internet access!
Ah yes, another blogthing. One last (or two last) blogthings before I lose the internet access.
And now, my real life friends! Oh, and I tried adding my own comments into it. XD The stuff in the parenthesis are my comments, methinks.

 Kitari-senpai is your soulmate. You truly love Jassy-senpai . You consider Reckless-senpai your true friend. You know that Tally-senpai is always thinking of you. You'll remember Awin-senpai for the rest of your life. You secretly think Rain-senpai is creative, charming, and a bit too dramatic at times. You secretly think that Gelly-senpai is colorful, impulsive, and a total risk taker. You secretly think that Rain-senpai is loyal and trustworthy to you. And that Rain-senpai changes lovers faster than underwear. You secretly think Awin-senpai is shy and nonconfrontational. And that Awin-senpai has a hidden internet romance. |

What You Really Think Of Your Friends |
Judy is your soulmate. (Um, scary much?!) You truly love Connie. (Wow.) You consider Sunny your true friend. You know that Victoria is always thinking of you. (Uh... right) You'll remember Makena for the rest of your life. (That works, I guess.) You secretly think Lisa is creative, charming, and a bit too dramatic at times. (Eh... wow.)

And that Madi changes lovers faster than underwear. (WHAT THE FRICK?!) You secretly think Mo is shy and nonconfrontational. And that Mo has a hidden internet romance. (She'd kill me. XD) |
The Last Day Ay My Grandma's House!
Today is special... because it's the last day at my grandma's house, before I go back to Beijing, where I will be staying for most of my vacation.
Well, let's describe this day, shall we?
It was pretty much well, normal and uneventful. My brother and I stayed home all day, we went on the computer, drew, read, yea, you get the point.
In the afternoon, I got a call from my friend, Connie. And guess what? She said that she met a good friend that she has met online in real life! It was so cool, and I knew that person as well. She's such a sweet girl; well, someone older than me... XD Anyways, Connie is sixteen, turning seventeen this year, and the girl that she met is fourteen. Maybe a two to three years difference? XD Anyway, I feel so happy for them, celebrating their fourth of July together! If only I was there with them!
Later, I was eating durian; the leftovers from yesterday, and it was surprisingly good! Maybe sitting in the refrigerator has its effects. But it was still really sweet; I had to eat it with water!
Anyways, we're having dumplings for dinner! ^o^ With meat and vegetable fillings; I can't wait! Everyone from my dad's side of the family's coming! It'll be so fun!
Sadly though, it is the last day that I am guaranteed to have internet access =/ There aren't any in Beijing, unless you count me staying over at my uncle's, whose house is really really squished. And the toilet sucks, because you have to well, it's not your everyday porcelain bowl toilet. There's this hole in the ground and that's what you pee in. o-O I think that people who have been to China before would know of it. XD
Anyway, here to say a final farewell to my grandma and her family this year, because I don't think I will be coming back. ='(

You've been known to act like a brat if you aren't getting your way! |
