Suzhou Amusement park

Sat when to Suzhou 乐园 with 6 others from pudong n puxi. Were almost late for our train when we reached the rail way station but heng heng managed to get in in time. The ride from shanghai to suzhou was only half an hr, faster than the 1hr ++ bus ride we needed to get to sch. Need to tell u abt the dumb sys they got there. Had to buy the tix immediately when we reached cause the tix'in counter in shanghai said they sold out all the return tixs frm suzhou (wth!!!). The tix booth there all have diff opening timings, so u might be queuing half way thru than the booth will suddenly close cause of the closing time than u super sian 1/2 la. Gd think we all splited up and 包 as many lanes as we could. Managed to buy the same day 930pm train back when our amusement park only opened till 530pm. Haha...china super croweded la...

Than we chance upon this guy how said we could take a 面包车 to the place for 15yuan (less than 3 per person); so we followed him...than he brought us along n handed us to another lady who took us to the bus stop. In the end, aft all the confusion we learnt they were out of the 面包车 n jus told us to take the public bus 游3 instead (only cheap cheap 1 yuan). But we were pissed la...wasted our time telling us can ferry us there...almost called for cab but than were told cab there would be 80 yuan...errr...super exp la...so we waited and even bought the student entry tix frm them...dont know y when we were so for taking cab they insisted we take the bus...cheapest one in fact instead of the more comfortable but more exp 3yuan bus...after tat she told us her company dont want to spoil their reputation (when we dont even know wat company she frm), so thats y she nvr anyhow ask other 黑车 to come fetch us to the amusement park when she was out of their own 面包车. The whole incident we felt really piss that if she did not have the 面包车 she shld have told us la n not kept us in the dark abt it...but she somewat redeemed herself by gettin us the cheapest way there...

Once there bought KFC burgers n hurried down to the place ard 1pm le...thou no time to play the rides esp if got long Q. Near the entrance someone was selling the student tix for only 35yuan ( normal rate is supp to be 40yuan) !!! Dont know how they did it la but we alr bought the tixs earlier frm the 面包车 auntie liao...cause jingleroo nvr bring her matric card or fudan pass, she used panda's matric card to fake. Haha its like super funny cause she seriously dont look like panda at all in the pic..somehow she still managed to go thru thou the attendant at the entry pt was like super suspicious...haha...gd job la jingleroo!!! Jingleroo 1 - Suzhou 乐园 0...

Felt like in Disneyland or something when we entered cause lots of theme shophouses n also got the large "Hollywood" word style on the hill top except tat they write 苏州乐园 instead...entry was 40yuan than there were some rides that required addition payments. Played the flying spaceship (ok only la...the coming down like very controlled i feel...dont have the kick); it like the twin hammers that go 360 degress but much slower, than we played paint ball (2 teams played against each other but than u only can stay in ur own zone, 28 paint balls n only $6!!!); no bad at all using a AR15 again, after that we played the SPINNERooney (realli spin until 乱; than cause the legs hangin out ma...dont know wat to do w it, keep it straighten or limp...), than also got the vertical drop (less than 30 sec only n the thrill only came frm the initial shot upwards; totally bo hua) and the last was the roller coaster (shiok la!!!). When to a ghost house style that used sound to scare pple, but got some idiotic A.T's in there with us...cant keep their mouth shut than on their HP lights, make it not scary at all...freak them manz!!! Also took the 4D experience ( last dimension is touch so had my face shot with air, squirted by water n tickled by rubber tips...haha

Had steamboat nearby near the amusement park cause we had plenty of time to kill till our 930pm...all i can say was that there was really a LOT of mushroom...gd think Gary not ard cause he hated mushrooms...than we chatted la...got to know Junjie n Li Ting better frm the Puxi side...

Realli sorri abt the pics cause the connection at home realli shitty this day...so maybe the pics realli got to be put on hold for the moment...Beijing end of the yr pretty much confirmed with the guys liao...all families members all splitting up gg their own places liao...so ya 2 essays 1 presentation, 2 tests n 1 IA report later shld be home...
