Buay Ta han

Yesterday I went to a city 200km away from Moscow, Tver. It's the city where the Volga River begins. A nice place to go and stay forever when you are old. LOL. The air there is fresh and it's a quiet and serene city. Anyway, prepare to read this long post.

I met Allen (guy from taiwan) in the morning and we head to the train station, Leningradsky Vokzal. We were suppose to take the 9:05am train. We reached there at 8:35am. We came out from the metro station and went to the smaller train station next to the metro station to ask where Leningradsky Vokzal train terminal is. The guy gave the directions so we went there and tried to buy the tickets. The lady told us that the next train is at 1pm! I was like no way... I saw the internet stating that the train will leave at 9:05am. So we went to the counter next to ask again and she told us to go to the small station to buy the tickets. We head back to the small station and the people there ask us to go to the big station. Damn. They must have had fun doing that to us. But we managed to find the right medium size station. But we missed the 9:05am train by 3 minutes... so we had to take the 11:35am train.

So we went to Kitay Gorod, which means china town, since we have 2 more hours. Damn... there is nothing china about this china town. There's church, italian restaurants, subway, etc... but nothing chinese about it. I thought we could grab some tim sum. But we grabbed arabian shaslik instead. lol.

Fast forward, we sat on the train and there were many people selling things on the train. There were even performances! I will upload it in my next post. Then we reached the city. at 2 plus pm Omg... I miss Emmi so muchie! (For the past two days, she went there and stayed with her friends and I did shopping alone (That... is another issue will talk about it soon) and went to the bar with others. ) Her friend, Nicol from Finland was there too. He was our "city guide guy". Seriously, the city is small... nothing much to see, but the air is really nice and peaceful. The Volga River was in ice and you can see people walking and fishing on the river. It's actually dangerous because we saw a few cracks on the iced river.

So about food... There's KFC there! You don't see KFC in Moscow, but u see it in this small city. Then we walked further down we meet KFC's competitor there... Chicken House. They sell cheap and nice food. Omg.. their curry sauce and mayonnaise with garlic sauce is AWESOME. Sooooo finger lickin good.

We went to their dorm... and damn they have their own kitchen! Over here in my dorm, you have to share the kitchen with another 30 people =.= But its okay because I always cook in batches and store it into the fridge and then microwave it when I want to eat it.

Then we took the train home.. I think this is the main highlight of the trip. When you are in the train, you will meet people there and we did. Usually Russians don't usually speak English and 90% probably don't understand what we are talk about... so We were talking about some sex stuff and then suddenly two young looking guys turned to us and ask if we were from america. It was so funny because we were talking about sex stuff and they spoke to us. Lucky they don't understand what we were talking about. After they left, another girl came to talk to us again. They really made the 2 hours and 30 minutes train ride like only 1 hour long. I like it. :)

Sooooo about my post title. What is so buay ta han? I have a friend who recently has a girlfriend. Look i am not being jealous here or what. I just don't understand what they are doing. They published (or spammed) their 3 similar looking collage photos on facebook and so I clicked on one of the photos. I saw their comments and I LOL:

I thought they skype or msn? Why are they so public about it? lol. My room mate saw it and said that maybe she should do that with her husband too (In a sarcastic way). Like msning and skyping is not enough? Okay nevermind. Probably they are in the honeymoon period. That's why. Maybe it's their monthiversary plus they they didn't take alot of photos together before he flew, that's why. Maybe the first collage the girl did it, the second collage the guy did it and the third one they do it together? Maybe they really want the whole world know how in love they are?

I have nothing against their love. In fact, in a way it is quite sweet, just that I hope that he can stop spamming my facebook with the similar-pictures-collage. If every monthiversary he spams the similar collage, except the photos are in different order, I will really LOL. lol.
