December, the last month of 2019 is quickly approaching... just thinking about it makes me realize how fast time has gone by. There are about three weeks of classes left and I can't wait for it to end! However, it would mean that projects, essays, presentations, and finals are coming up and I have to start preparing for it. Seasons started to change in the middle of November in Shanghai. A Friendly reminder to bring your winter clothes with you because it can get very windy and cold!! But even if you did not bring much winter clothes, you can always do online shopping since it is very convenient in Shanghai, especially its free shipping and takes only 2 to 3 days to arrive. The shopping app that I used is called "Taobao" and it is free to download on app stores. There are many different products where you can find in this app such as food, clothes, electronics, accessories, etc. Once you know how to use it, you will love it since you do not need to go out and can purchase everything you need in there!
Since the weather is turning colder in Shanghai, I often get hot drinks to stay warm. In this case, bubble drinks are my first choice because I am a fan of bubble drinks and there are many different bubble tea shops on and off campus. You can always try different drinks everyday without repeating as well. There is even a Starbucks shop on Xuhui campus, which is right next to the Antai college, so it's very easy to find. In addition, there are many convenience stores located everywhere in the city. You may easily find 7-11, family-mart, and Lawson on and off campus. The payment method is also very fast and convenient. All you need to do is to take out your phone and scan the vendor’s bar code or QR code to pay via Wechat or Alipay.
