One Night at China University Dorm


It never crossed my mind to be an illegal visitor and stayed overnight at any China university dormitory. The first 2 nights in Chengdu I stayed at Lynn’s aunt place and it’s quite far away from the Panda base. The only chance to get there at early morning is taking taxi, that will cost me a big fortune, taking bus will take 2 or 3 buses and more than one hour ride, plus the public bus will start around 7 AM. Meanwhile Lynn’s university was pretty close to the Panda Base, so Lynn decided to sneak me into her dorm, her lecturer’s room precisely. 

It happened that night the lecturer was not at her room and Lynn had the key :D It was a private room with attached bathroom and electricity 24/7, not like Lynn’s dorm at another level of the building that has no electricity after 11 PM. A loud alarm at 10.30 PM warned the students to get back to room before the light off and another loud one at 06.00 AM to wake them up, officially made me feeling like living in a concentration camp :p I stayed at the room by myself and had to make no sound at all and dimmed the light or Lynn will get into trouble if there’s someone knock on my door that night. I even took the picture of the bed, so the next morning I can arrange it back exactly the same. I was worried, but then zonked like a baby monkey the whole night. I left the room in the morning like nothing happened tho, like a boss!!

The Panda itself was adorable as always, I love the most baby pandas sleeping on the tree with their round fluffy ass, awwwww….The big ones were kinda dirty and not that cute anymore. The visit to Panda Base was officially the first place I went alone without Lynn, and finally was ‘forced’ to talk to new people. I’m kinda person that doesn’t talk too much and really can enjoy myself, and I would be so lazy to approach new people when I already have friend to be with. It’s already become my habit to eavesdrop a group tour  for free guidance, but then I had to choose between two groups going different directions, so I pick the small group that apparently from Mix Hostel. Though the guide couldn’t speak English and only lead the way, but I ended up spent a nice walk and nice talk along the zoo with a Hongky, a Korean and an American who speak Chinese better than me *sigh*
