Tag 114: Sportfest in Mother Yesterday and today was announced, no classes. But " Sports Meet (运动会,
Yùndònghuì | ) in Chenggong. Chenggong (呈贡) is a district of Kunming in the far south. Our university - the Yunnan Nationalities University (云南 民族 大学,
yúnnán Minzu Daxue ), only once in memory - there is another campus that is really very very nice because he rebuilt and is still quite clean. Life there is very comfortable, but also boring, because of the distance to the city center. Karina (a Brazilian I know of here) and Guy (pronounced:
[ɡi ː] , the Austral-Swiss Thai fluently speaks the envy * * study) there.
And yesterday there was just a big sports event as it seems at every university in China once a year to be. For the students really a great event with much fanfare. Anyone who grew up in East Germany, can imagine the importance of which about. With several school buses 's went off in any event, at 7:00 am
(ie half an hour after us in the dormitory of the current terms)
. Amila, the Nangis (
Nangi
is the Sinhalese word for "little sister" to the 3 Srilankanerinnen meant the age of Amila and I) and I, Lina were from Norway and some 30 Thai we, the other buses housed more Thais and other nations. After about an hour we arrived in Chenggong, got out and shivered first: Chenggong is so far removed from urban micro-climate that the wind is so strong and the temperature is low (allegedly -2 ° C) was that we all are almost totgefroren , namely we had for about half an hour waiting for our teacher ... They came then and we got red polo shirts with the symbol and the International Education School (国际 教育 学院,
Guoji Jiàoyù Xueyuan
) back to back. Not bad! Then we came to a large sports field with a grandstand full of Chinese. Not only do we foreign students, and other (Chinese) from other institutions such as philosophy, foreign language school and further. All were representative in uniform, in three achievement with a flag and the Institute names were then presented by the respondent and are then marched to the sports ground in jubilation and applause of the audience - including us. Even our countries were presented, for example, 德国 ( Déguó
, Germany). Then it was time to Wait ... on the sports field.
were held for a few speeches, then the national anthem
was played (a very nice way, think like me) and some people with flags running around, then went and ourselves from the square and watched from the grandstand area (but at ground level) the spectacle. There was dancing a lot and performed feats of acrobats, acrobatics, swing bands (äscha as before!) And finally a belly-free group of minority dancers.
was frozen majority of us, to all the Thais decided to look into the distance. Since we were in the same bus, we joined of them went away, and gathered in a sort of hall to wait for the teacher and the bus, then came an hour later. Frozen half we went (residential) home, at about 12:00 or 12:30. From the Sports Day, I really had the impression that this is really typical Chinese. This is what one is against it or has it once on TV (we were just not as many thousands of people there). In our favorite eating road, 圆 西路 (
Yuánxīlù
), gave it to then licked 混沌
(hundun)
and 饺子 (jiǎozi)
to bursting. I'm getting really fat at the delicious food. Hab I mentioned that I take my impassable in recent years 58 kg now about 63 or 64 kg weigh? Well ... Incidentally, I now have
not only this Uni-shirt, but also a new sweater, blue and warm, from NIKE (höhöhö) that I help with Tik in the 121-road (一二 一 大街,
Yi 'Eryi Dajie -acquired). At first, he still cost 95 yen, or about € 10.70, which for a simple sweater is quite expensive. Foreigners holding price. Tik knows more haggling with (although in Thailand is not usual) and we have complained so long about the expensive price and then wanted to go already (or "Go!" in Thai is some fun in "Let's go!" ป๊ะ
[páʔ] in the high range) and got a prompt then still the sweater "nachgeworfen", for only 60 ¥ ( about 6.75 €). Another, more attractive (grüne!) Cardigan we have received but not so - that's according to Tik but somewhere else for 50 yen instead of 95 ¥. Let's see ...
