Selecting the Customer

1


Yesterday, I went with Mauri for dimsum somewhere in chinatown. The food was quite nice, the place is more like family restaurant, with a semi traditional chinese decoration. Surprisingly, many tourists come to this place, maybe because the strategic location? As I said before, there is nothing wrong about the food (it's is nice), or the service, well, maybe something a little bit wrong with the service. I find few of the waiters are selecting their customers, just because they saw us (Mauri and Me), and they think we're locals, we are Chinese (but we don't speak---well, I need to learn), so as I can recall, the waiter keep speaking in Chinese although we replied in English, and somehow behaves a little bit rude? Then we both think maybe it's their culture? Or it's just the people? Then, after we sat for around 15 minutes, there are many tourists in one big group came and one couple was sitting next to our table. When they ordered, the same waiter, speak English! Ya, so you can speak to them but not to us? So, if the customers are ang mo, they will treated well? That rude behavior happened first few times, then I think they realize we're not locals, so I find in the end they behaved better?

I would consider to go again sometime for the food, or if there is a good promotion, other than that, maybe no.

New Room

Hi, after few days of cleaning plus organizing all my stuffs, I finally get a chance of to enjoy my new room. (doh! of course I have all this room for myself...haha.., it's very windy here because it's in 17th floor:))
A good thing of having a room on your own, you can do anything that you want and anything that you like without having someone complaining...well, being in one room with other people obviously learning how to compromise with each other needs, and it's a good thing too.

Well, currently in this new home, I stay with 3 other tenants, another 2 people will come next week, so, the total of people in this house would be 6 including me. There are 4 rooms, 3 single room, and one master room in this house. The tenant of the first single room is a guy (H), currently on business trip for one week so left only 3 people including me. The tenant in the second single room is a girl (A), which will move to master room together with the tenant in the third single room (V). So, after they move to master room, there should be 2 single rooms left for me, and for the couple. -- I'm staying in the third room:)

There are some things that I need to adjust, well, like having the room for myself...I guess, it turns out very quite without the other people that used to be around, then I feel homesick more than ever, but other than that, I believe other housemates are quite nice and helpful, I hope everything will be better afterwards.

Moving Out

Officially is on 8th of July, which is next Wednesday, I will move out (currently stay with other roomate), and rent my own room, which is good. Well, I'm not saying that I hate my roomate or what...actually, I already use to have a roomate, I stay with my sister in the same room before and my current roomate helped me a lot. It's just I can have more privacy:), plus I can do anything that I want to without bothering other people. Need to pack at least by the end of this week.
