jeremy AT CHINA: some funny things

since im having internet in my room now. and i finished watching heroes, sarah connor chronicles, prison break and gossip girl. since im having holidays for a week now. since i have nothing to do. lets see some interesting things ive seen in china. =)

beer, beer, and more CHEAP BEER. in case you cant read the sign, its 1.30RMB per can of beer. 1.30RMB/4.71 = SING DOLLARS. go do the maths. wanna get drunk anyone?

this is a shopping receipt. besides being all in chinese, what's the difference between your original receipt? see the scratched grey box below? AHHHH YES. every receipt gives u a lucky draw on the spot, it either says 'xie xie ni' or you get 2RMB-10RMB which you can redeem on the spot with the cashier. SUGGEST TO YOUR LOCAL SUPERMART NOW.

Sorry for the blur text, let me explain. its at the front desk of a hotel over here. basically it notifies you that is ADDS 5RMB to your bill automatically and donates this amount to the hotel's charity on your behalf. if you wanna CANCEL it, please notify the front desk officer. HMM. always check your receipt for things you did not buy, but charged to you. =)

I took a picture WITH PERMISSION from his secretary. yes this is the GM's office. my GM is from australia, so sorry its not furnished to cater to China people. its pretty cool eh? time to send in your resume!

wanna visit a local pet shop? NAH there isnt such thing. walk along the road and you will see, CLEAN ANIMALS! 100RMB! 3 MONTHS OLD! and you can bargain for a PET OVER HERE. wanna call SPCA? go ahead. i admit, being a dog lover, some are really beautiful and tempting to buy. ARGH.

remember your local IT show? people walking around with signboards, usually in pairs? nope not over here. this is a STRING OF PEOPLE, your age, holding promotion signboards for a nearby shop, walking ALONG THE MAIN ROAD. part time job anyone? =)

HUH! DIDNT KNOW HOMER SIMPSON HAD A SHARE IN THIS HOTEL! i am gonna show the GM of this hotel that this name belongs to some famous family. =)
