Speaking class and a trip to the DVD shop

My class wasn't until the afternoon but the Ayi comes in at 12pm so I had to find somewhere to go until my class. I ended up in the DVD shop across my road and spent a good amount of time in there. They had so many I thought I'd not buy too many since chances are in the next 6 months I could be there quite a lot. I bought mostly cartoons which have Mandarin so I could try and become more familiar with conversational Chinese.

I then headed up Panyu Lu to the Shanghai Arts building. It is actually a cinema inside but downstairs is a City Shop. Inside they have lots of imported products which are very expensive but its good to know if I'm ever really homesick and want some comfort food that I can get some just down the road from me.

There was a Starbucks in this building too and a Subway as well as an Italian ice cream parlour and what I think is a cafe/restaurant chain. I went into Starbucks and a green tea cost 20RMB. The mug was cute though with a leaf design for the tea bag string to be wrapped around. I also managed to work out how to connect to the wifi there so hopefully it works in all Starbucks without me needing to register my phone again.

I went to my class  which I was quite nervous about but it actually wasn't too bad. Maybe because it was the first class but it was a lot of repetition which got a little frustrating. Afterwards I went to a restaurant near my place and had some rice with roast goose and chicken which was quite nice and only cost 30RMB. And now I'm back in my room watching Megamind in Mandarin which is quite amusing I have to say from what I can understand!

Back to morning classes tomorrow and I'm hoping to go to the chocolate wonderland in the afternoon ^^
