WEEK4: Day TWENTY-SEVEN (29th March)

Everybody woke up late today because there are no plans for us.
Thus leaving everybody to STUDY STUDY and more STUDY until evening time where some of us went to eat the fastfood restaurant located nearby our school.
Took a taxi to the shopping mall again where the guys played pool and we girls went to buy DVDs.
And tata!!! Went back at around 11pm and went to the back alley to collect a birthday cake to celebrate a friend's birthday via webcam =pPp
Too bad, he's not in china but we are good-hearted people, we celebrate via webcam but the cake we eat lah =DDDDDDD

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHENG SIONG!!!


*p.s: Not an eventful day today except for the birthday part*


*****


WEEK4: Day TWENTY-SIX (28th March)

It's a raining today that made the weather so damn cold.
Initially we were told to go to the Yangtze riverside for a walk, but then the wind and the rain is so strong that we had to postpone to a later time. 
We then went shopping at Han Kou. 
Saw quite a few clothes that I wanted to buy but was lazy to take off my clothes because of the coldness. BUT fret not! We will be coming again during the last week when the weather is better with the sun and also not that cold =)


But the guys seems to be having so much fun shopping due to the cold weather and they bought some clothes!!!!!


We finally get to eat LAO PO BING at some random cake shop !!!!!!!!!


Somehow we got separated with the guys and ended up waiting for them near the Riverside being blown by the wind.
While waiting, Mr Chong was kind-hearted enough to buy us hot potato to share due to the cold weather.
THANKS MR CHONG!!!!!
Mr Chong is so cute lah!
Kept showing his chopsticks and doremon stuffs to everybody =)
But many of us wanted to buy chopsticks when we go back there again =)



When everybody arrived, we then went to the riverside for a walk.

At around 3pm, we were then brought back to our dormitory to rest for the day...

IMPORTANT LESSON LEARNT:
REALLY MUST WEAR MORE CLOTHES DUE TO THE COLD WEATHER.


*****


WEEK 4Day TWENTY-FIVE (27th March)

NO lessons today =)
But still had to wake up early to go for a trip to the optic fiber factory.
This optic fiber is used in wires which is a better quality than the normal cheap copper wire.
Upon reaching there, we were then welcome by the person in charge if the company and he explained to us about the process of making the optic fibers.


After which, LSCT headed to a street market nearby the main Wuhan University for lunch. AND AND! This time round the soya bean we drank is drinkable!!!!!!! The reason is because the soya bean we drank taste like cigarette smell due to the old traditional method they used to make it but today the ones we drank have the Singapore taste!!!!!!!!!
OMG!!!!!
FINALLY!!!!!
We then headed to the university to look at the Cherry Blossoms.
Got a discount instead, pay 8.80RMB instead of 10RMB because due to our large numbers as well as the trees are blading soon.
  
Due to the falling season of the Cherry Blossoms, many flowers had already drop on the ground but it falls so damn beautifully while the wind rustle.
It's good to see Cherry Blossoms just once in your life rather than seeing pictures on the internet.


After staying such a long time at the university, we all then headed to the SHOPPING MALL again at around 5pm. Some went for KTV, some went for a game of pool, and the rest (Ian, Jerald, Liying and me) went for shopping. We had economic rice for dinner.
This economic rice is different from Singapore's one. Over here, we are supposed to pick dish that we wanted by ourselves and they charged us by the weight of our dishes. While in Singapore, the price is fixed due to the number of meat or vegetables we ordered. Somehow, this weighing method is quite a good idea because if you take alot of meat, you may pay lesser over here rather than pay alot for just a few pieces of meat in Singapore.

Oh I finally bought something for myself!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (usually i buy things for my family members) Anyway it's just a hairband lah >.<
And Li Ying also finally bought something for herself too!!!!! Which is a rubberband >.<
After that, we went for manicure!
Ian and Jerald had to wait for us though, WHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!
It's 100 over RMB which is like cheaper than doing manicure in Singapore.
Actually it's due to out BLING BLING that makes it so expensive =)
Well, it's my first manicure done by other people afterall and from what i've observed from the way they do our nails, it's simple and easy so it's like I am also learning on how to improve on my own D.I.Y nails the next time I do.
Definitely, I like their great service which is that they are super nice and they gave a fast service due to the time constraint we had.

We then met up with the rest at 7pm and then went to WALL MART which is their supermarket and bought some items back to our dormitory.
Oh, supposedly should study but I guess it's too late now.
*YAWNS*
Got another one day outing tomorrow.
GOODNIGHTS!!!

WEEK4: Day TWENTY-FOUR(26th March)

Almost everybody was tensed up today before the presentation.
Had lessons in the morning as well as after lunch.
At 3pm, We then head to WEST 5(3) to get ready for our presentation before the students, lecturers and deans come at 4pm. We then thought of a song to sing after our presentation together with the MDE students and just then we all suddenly thought of singing the song "SINGAPORE TOWN".
HAHAHHAHAHAHA!!!!
I remembered singing this song during my secondary school days with one of my good friend during class.

My group was the first to present and suddenly my hands were filled with cold sweat. I wasn't sure if I could present well because I'm known to say those ja-pa-lang things which are not supposed to be said during a presentation as well as my stammering.
Thus, after my presentation on Singapore's places of interest, I heaved a sight of relieve. It's OVER.
I did stammer abit, I don't know how bad I did but I knew that there were some things unsaid during the presentation which i thought of saying before it.
And there were some words I pronounced wrongly, like the word "BEACHES" and my friends said they heard "BITCHES".

During the presentation, there were sudden flashes of light that made me like go: "LOL" (laugh out loud). The reason is because nobody took pictures of me from all my life until now when I'm presenting and now many students and teachers with super expensive cameras kept taking photos of us. This made me more pressurized. I've got to really go improve on my speaking. Until now I still think I haven't improved by abit.
The rest of the LSCT students were great. As well as the MDE's presentations.
MDE then sang the song "Ra Sa Sa Yang" and followed by our "SINGAPORE TOWN" to liven up the whole atmosphere =)
Thus ended off smoothly with a bow =)
I hope the China students would look even more forward in coming to Singapore soon =)


Had dinner at the restaurant we went 2 days ago and it wasn't a pleasant one for me. But cheap cheap 12 RMB. 
Nahs, not going to study today shall start tomorrow =pPp


*****


WEEK4: Day TWENTY-THREE (25th March)

OH!!!!!
Mr Chong showed us the next half of Red Cliff 1 as well as the full of Red Cliff 2.
It's a nice show =)
Zhu-ge liang may be knowledgeable in many things, but he's always seems to be missing when the war between both sides started. @.@
But one thing about this show that disturbed me is that the bloodshed in this movie IS SO FAKE!!!!!!!! Looks like some tomato sauce that is mixed with water and with just one cut, this FAKE blood is like gushing out from nowhere funnily. And the thing is, when the soldiers are injuried by the arrow or spear, they would just drop dead and die BUT! the main characters of the show did not even die when they are injuried by the weapons. FUNNY RIGHT?
But still is nice lah =)

After the show, I've decided to go back to my dormitory and refused to go out for dinner because the weather is cold and I've yet to finish my slides for tomorrow. Another reason is because they wanted to go to the restaurant to eat but I just don't like eating at resturants lah. Save money better. So the rest left for dinner accept jeremy who also want to save money. He then went down to the back alley with alan and Jonathan to da bao some food while I stayed in the room eating instant noodles. The 3 guys then brought some food back and we had a small party =) until i totally forgot that I've yet to finish my slides T.T


Ok lah, finally I've finish everything and tomorrow will be a nervous day for me as I have to present with my group mates about Places in Singapore to a Lecture Hall full of people? OMG. Die already sia me.
GOOD LUCK!!!!


*****


WEEK 4Day TWENTY-TWO (24th March)

As usual, we had lessons in the afternoon at 1pm. So we bought our lunch at the back alley and munch on them on our way back to class.
After lessons, Mr Chong showed us the movie Red Cliff 1.
I've never watched this movie before and always thought that this movie is boring because i absolutely don't even know what's all about it. But after I had history lesson with Xiao Ling, I suddenly felt more eager to watch this show. Of cuz, without the English subtitles, I think I still catch no ball because their chinese too cheam already @.@
So far we had watched half of it already, and so by tomorrow we will continue the next half and I'm so looking forward to it =)

After lessons, we went to THE SHOPPING MALL via bus and ate KFC there.
Compared to Singapore's KFC, Singapore's one is nicer.
China KFC's chicken is SO DAMN SMALL!!!!!
And their chicken taste like the after taste of a cooked chicken that was put into the water. YUCKS!!!
Their mashed potato is like really potato and taste very weird.
Singapore's chicken may be small too, but at least it does not have that after taste of cooked chicken that was put into water?!
Although Singapore's mashed potato is not made from real potato, it doesn't taste weird and it's still flickin' licking good!

I'm never gonna eat China's KFC again.

We then headed inside the mall for a walk and on our way up the escalator, we saw this father carrying his small kid right infront of a dustbin and guess what the kid was doing?


HE'S TRYING TO SHIT IN THE DUSTBIN!!!!
!@#$%^&*

OMG.
In a sort of high class mall?
I don't think this mall is lack of toilets right?
And where's the sense of responsibility of this father?
In the middle of nowhere suddenly there's this guy trying to let his child shit inside a dustbin where everybody is like walking past.
I do not know what's the government of China is doing lah but I am pretty sure if anybody does that in Singapore, they will have a penalty and definitely get kicked out of the mall.
Not to even say this, I GUESS nobody in Singapore does that. Unless some alien really trying to attract the attention of passerbys and get fined and appear in the newspapers and become famous overnight.


After seeing this disgusting act, we headed to Watsons to buy some stuff before heading to the other shops for window shopping. And thus ended our day with going back to the back alley behind school for Gui Ling Gao again and back to our comfy dormitories =)

Got to finish up my powerpoint slides already.
ZOOMZ..
CIAOS!!!!


*****


WEEK 4: Day TWENTYONE ( 23rd March)

We had lessons with Mr Chong today at 1pm =) So we can sleep longer due to the trip to Wudang Shang 2 days back. And to our amazement, our legs were not pain at all!!!!!( Although my legs were kind of cramped during the bus journey back school that time) 
We had lunch at the halal canteen and quickly headed for our lessons because the weather suddenly turned cold and it was raining =(

After lessons, we headed to a nearby restaurant for dinner and to our surprised, we were given the V.I.P room!!!! AND THERE's NO EXTRA CHARGES!!!!!
This V.I.P room includes a private toilet, television(damn big), sofa, and a big table enough to squeeze in 17 people.
But the food was just alright lah, it's acceptable and the dishes were not that oily as we usually eat.
I still prefer the back alley food.
Not only that it's nice, appealing and filling, it's cheap too(Less than 10RMB can eat alot already)
Not like this meal where we had to pay 22RMB and i ate only a little.
But true to say, we only pay like around $5 SDG and we won't get to eat such a cheap lavish meal in Singapore.
With a private V.I.P room in Singapore's restaurant, the charges here and there could make you vomit blood more than you could afford it.


After dinner we headed to the supermarket and bought some stuff before we head back to our warm and cosy dormitories =)
I shall say today's not an eventful day for us, just a usual normal day with lessons and just out for our meals.

GOODNIGHTS =)

WEEK 3: Day NINETEEN & TWENTY ( 21st & 22nd March)

WuDang Mountain !!!!!
Woke up as early as 6am and board the bus at around 7am.
Again like last week, we had a rocky journey throughout and slept our way through....
And we reached the city at around 1pm and ate at a resturant for lunch.
Initially we thought that we would be climbing the mountain today but then we only go visit some of the places up the mountain and on the very next day we will then set off climbing from around the middle of the mountain up to the peak.

We were brought up to parts of the mountain via their buses and the roads are long and curvy.

The roads were too curvy until the guys sitting at the sides of the bus have to hold on to the upper bar for grip so they won't fall off.

When we reached a temple, there's this very kind uncle who performed Tai Chi especially for us.

Professional right?

Each destination to different places via the bus took around 20 minutes up, so you can guess how tall the mountain is. From top to bottom is around 19km.
Singapore's bukit timah hill also not that tall. Just take less than an hour can reach to the top already. NO NEED BUS SOMEMORE, just use our legs =.=
How i wish Singapore had this natural mountain so that people can exercise and also enjoy the scenery.

We were also brought to another temple where this time round, we saw many kids around our age and even smaller kids as small as around 5 or 6 years old kungfu-ing infront of the temple.

You may wonder where do these kids come from?
They come from any part of China just to learn Kungfu here due to their willingness.
Or perhaps i THINK that maybe they come from poor families and their parents could not support them so they come all the way here for survival.
I've also noticed that their palms are HUGE. Even the smaller kids like around 5 to 6 years old, their palms are even bigger than mine! With doubt, we asked the tour guide why all of their palms are huge, and she said that because learning kungfu not only requires their legs, they also uses their hands most of the time too like using their legs to hit their palms for some moves and also they had to use their hands to move some heavy stuff etc..
I've seen some people in Singapore learning kungfu at most community centres. But mostly they called it Wushu. Kids as young as 5 years old started learning Wushu and the way they do their moves are so cute! And also in some way fierce because you will never know how much strength they have due to their small sizes.



After touring at some places up the mountain, it was time for us to go back down the mountain for our dinner at around 6plus pm. We were so tired until we even slept in the bus due to the long journey ride of around 40 minutes down the mountain. We then had dinner at the same place again where we had for our lunch.
After dinner, we were brought to one of the hotels there. We thought it may be those kind of "local 4 star" hotel again like we had in the cruise last week where they had no hot water and the toilet's not really working well, BUT! we were wrong! To our amazement, it turned out that it was like the international kind of 4 star hotel!

SEE!!! GOOD RIGHT? Like some place for relax relax one.
There's a huge toilet, WARM water, toilet's flushing, FREE shampoo and stuff...
BUT we only be staying here for one night T.T

We then had a very serious meeting together on deciding whether we should climb the mountain a not because Mr Chong was trying very hard to persuade us days before in taking the cable car instead as he scared that we may overtired or injured ourselves. We came to a decision that we will take the cable car just for the sake for Mr Chong and the other students from other courses because at first we are the only ones who wanted to climb while the other students were persuaded by their teachers not to climb. Before we tell Mr Chong our decision, we asked him seriously of what he really want us to do. To our surprise, he actually said that he DOES want us everybody to climb together for experience. And we quickly changed our idea to climbing the mountain, no matter how difficult it may be, we girls also must try our very best as we all think we may also not be able to make it. 
We had an early sleep around 12 plus am(To me is early lah =) ) to get preserve more energy for our climb the very next day.


We woke up as early as 6am and board the bus at 6.30am and off we went for breakfast at the same place restaurant again.
Most of us tried eating more to fill up our stomachs in order to have more energy for the climb. We drank red bull too =)
We then set off and reached to the middle of the mountain at around 9 plus am.
Some MDE students also joined in the climbing too. I guess their teacher is motivated by our LSCT spirit in wanting to climb the mountain and so allows his students to climb too.

From the place where we start to the peak, it is around 4 km and the way up to the peak is all STAIRS. Many stairs UP and stairs DOWN. At a certain point of time, some of us were too tired to climb already but we hang on and continued no matter what. Of cos, we were able to climb with the help of GATORADE!!!!! This isotonic drink helps us alot, without it, we may not even complete the journey.

After around 2 and a half hours, we finally reached the peak!!!!!!
When we came to the peak, we shouted "THE WORLD IS SO BIG" in Chinese,English,Malay,Tamil,Hokkien.


All of us were so excited and relieved as we had reached the peak with our own legs!!!!!!!! 
And we were told that a normal fit person would take around minimum 3 hours without stopping to reach the peak. BUT! We took only around 2 and a half hours to reach!!!!! This proves that we are stronger!!!!!
WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
While climbing, we were also told that those students who are taking the cable car up are still queuing up for the ride even after 1 and a half hour of our journey up the mountain.
And we reached there much earlier than them!
 
Through this experience climbing the mountain with the whole LSCT gang, we all had improved our bonding together as we encouraged one another to not give up throughout the journey and we all go together as a gang, we do not walk on our own separately like some of the MDE students. We do things and helped one another together. With these, we all had the NEVER-SAY-DIE attitude and spirit that keeps us going.


Upon leaving the peak, we walked down to the cable car there and took a ride downhill and had lunch at around 3plus pm. ALL of us were famished!!!!
After lunch, we then took the bus downhill and most of us were too tired and feel asleep.
When we had reached to the bottom, we took our own bus again and off we went back to Wuhan.
GOODBYE WUDANG SHAN!!!!!


When we reached back to WUST, it was already around 9plus pm and we had a last picture with the tour guide.

Thanks to our tour guide for bringing us to the 3 gorges dam last week and also to Wudang Shan this week =) Without she and the other tour guides, we will not had known the places of interests of Hubei and thanks to them for taking care of such a big group of Singaporean students and teachers =)


With this experience up the hill, I've learnt many things throughout the journey like what I've said earlier on, the improved bonding times with the gang and with perseverance to complete the journey no matter how hard it may takes. And also I've finally climbed a mountain!!!!! And it's Wudang Mountain!!!!!!!(although it's only 4 km lah) Those who never climbed a mountain before, you will never know the kind of satisfaction you get when you finally reached to the peak. This journey will forever be etched in my heart =)

WEEK 3: Day EIGHTEEN (20th March)

Woken up by my mum today calling me about my results. (well, i asked her to help me check cuz i lazy check)
IT'S RESULTS!!!!
I was still in my sleepy mood when she called me.
AND I SUDDENLY FELT SO HIGH BECAUSE OF MY GRADES.
Kind of unexpected because i thought i would get lower grades.
Well, and the time is 8.30am
I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE IN BED SLEEPING!
But everybody was too anxious until they can't sleep anymore...


Supposedly going to Wuhan University to see the Sakura.
But too bad, it was raining..
But anyway some of us were not willing to go see because we've seen it before already and we have to pay 10 RMB just to see those flowers =.=
EXPENSIVE SIA!
We can go see FREE one better right?


Well, never mind about that. We went for breakfast at the back alley.
DUMPLINGS!!!!

Ok lah, not very nice although the shop is well known for it's dumplings >.<



And to our Gui Ling Gao again early in the morning. 

After breakfast, we met up with the rest of the group with Mr Chong and we together took a bus to the the shopping malls opposite the amusement park we went 2 weeks ago.
It is regarded like Singapore's Orchard Road.
Things are expensive there and most are abit more expensive than Singapore's one.
So why not go back Singapore shop right?

I must say about their Haagen Dazs that is located inside of one the malls we went.
Good environment, NO people, ONE SINGLE scoop cost 28 RMB.
NEVER MIND LEH,
But their single scoop is really "very single scoop"
SMALL LAH their scoop, cheat my money only.

Oh, and i managed to get my Dad's Cd there.
And i didn't get anything for myself T.T

The next mall we went was SOGO.
Oh Singapore did have this SOGO before but don't know why suddenly don't have already.
Same one loh, nothing much to shop too but FINALLY Kumar bought his jacket after going to billions of Adidas shops around Wuhan.
We then had dinner at the foodcourt below.
IT WAS EMPTY. And the food is expensive.
Most of us ate chicken,duck rice.

And we ordered their Roti Prata.
No sugar.
No curry.
Because it's salted prata.
Funny right they all?



On the way back to school to celebrate Kidd's Birthday.


Before going back to school, we alighted at the nearby shopping mall near school as the guys wanted to buy their shoes and we were almost late for Kidd's birthday.
His birthday party was located at the 6th level of our lecture block with Mr Chong.
Kidd was smashed with a birthday cake but it was somehow smashed to his coat and in return, he smashed some of it on Jin Quan's jacket and hands as he is the stuipd one who only stayed beside him while the rest already fled.
Some of the China students joined us too and it turned out that Xin Hui was teaching us some dance moves from the High School Musical.
And we got Jeremy dancing too which I think is the best performance there.
Sang some songs before some of us headed out to the nearby supermarket to get some food and drinks for our mountain climbing tomorrow.


Thats it for today. Hope our climbing tomorrow be a successful one =)
Say Hello to WuDang Shan!!!!!!


*****


WEEK 3Day SEVENTEEN (19th March)

BOO!!!!
Surprising my leg is not that pain today due to my running.
Today's temperature is between around 16 to 31 degrees.
SO, i just wore a T-shirt with jeans out.
The weather's so shiok! And at times i felt like I'm sweating due to the sun.
Finally we had some-kind-like Singapore's raining weather =)
Had lessons at 10.30am for ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNOLOGY and head for lunch at the back alley.
ATE THE "HAMBURGER" =)
and drank the SI WA NAI CHA with pearls =)

Xiao Ling's lesson was at 1pm and sadly, it's our last lesson today with her =(
Ok lah, although it may be boring during her lessons, but she did put in alot of effort to teach us for 4 hours straight every 2 days per week.



See! Jasper uses a tissue to fold into a nice rose.
The next picture: Jin Quan's one and Jasper's one.
Difference very big right?


Because of the last lesson with Xiao Ling, both LSCT and MDE gave a little present to her =)
And this is Meiyi presenting a little gift to her =)
As well as our group photo.
XIAO LING LAO SHI!!! TAKE CARE OKAYS =) 


After lessons...

After much mingling around, we've decided to go Jian She Qi Lu which is around 10mins of bus ride from our school.
When we reached there, we saw many shops like Adidas, Nike, etc along the roadside and we went to the street market for some shopping.


It looks like our Singapore's Pasar Malam =)
Except there isn't any food selling there, only along the roadside outside the "Pasar Malam"
Mostly the shops there sells clothes which I don't fancy, socks, undergarments, toys, etc...
In the end didn't manage to get something.
SO SAD =(


And along the way we saw...

DOG MEAT RESTAURANT!!!
The guys initially wanted to go eat, but some of us like ME and Li Ying refused to eat.
EH!
DOG MEAT LEH!
ALthough it's the same like the CHICKEN or FISH we eat, but since young we don't eat DOG only chicken,fish,pork...
SO DON'T EVER FORCE ME TO EAT DOG,CAT,DEER,SHEEP,or some animal which looks pitiful and cute.
OR I PUKE INFRONT OF YOU, OKAY?


After walking, we went to eat chicken drumstick.
NICE OKAY!!!

DELICIOUS!!!


After which, we settled down at a small sort of coffee shop for dinner.
AND BEER =)
brand: SNOW 3.1% 
Too little that Li Ying like drinking it.
BAD GIRL AH!



After that, we went off to Adidas shop and bought a bag for one of the China student, Kidd. It's his birthday on Sunday, but then we will be back late from Wudang Mountain so we decided to celebrate his birthday tomorrow.

And then, we are back to our dormitory!!!
So glad we were at "Jian She Qi Lu" today because we knew there's another place for us to shop for some last minute shopping during the last week =)

We're going to the Wuhan University near the East Lake there to see the Cherry Blossoms.
10 YUAN per person leh!!!!
And after that heading to "THE SHOPPING MALL" for some shopping!!!!
WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!


OH NO!
Tomorrow is our EXAMINATION RELEASE!!!!
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!



*****


WEEK 3: Day SIXTEEN (18th March)

It's another NORMAl day today so shall keep this post short and sweet.
Woke up at 11am (SO SHIOK LAH! SLEEP UNTIL SHUANG SHUANG)
Had dinner at canteen and ate the egg mian again.
We then went for lessons at 1pm for Xiao Ling's lesson on history.
We were told that by this week she will change her teaching pattern.
But it seems like the same to me =.=
Ok lah, but this time round i didn't fall asleep leh!!

After her lessons at 5pm, me,Liying and Vel went for jogging again.
I SO DAMN PROUD OF MYSELF!!!!!!!!!!
CUZ I RAN 8 ROUNDS AROUND THE SCHOOL.
IT"S THE WHOLE SCHOOL!!!! Not that time i ran just half the school =DDDDDDD
During the first 2 rounds were exhausting, but then the more i jog the more i feel so high enough to keep on running =DD
Not bad uh?

After the jog, the rest joined us to the fastfood resturant we ate yesterday there and walked all the way there despite my "sour" leg. >.<

That it for today.
SHORT RIGHT?
HaHa goodnights =D


*****


WEEK 3: Day FIFTEEN (17th March)

Trip to WuGang steel factory wasn't a fabulous one.
Woke up at 7am and board the bus at 8am.
We still have to bring the school's helmet there which is smelly and dirty... EWWW!!!

We are not allowed to take pictures inside so no choice!!!!
We just walk one round inside for around 15 to 20 mins and thats it!
And we heard that right in the front there's a person-in-charge talking and introducing about the steel factory.
!@#$%^&*
But it was a good experience in the sense that we saw hot the steels are moulded in their flat shapes and in the end rolled up.
And the inside was very WARM due to the heat generators inside.


After which we head back school around 10am and head outside school for lunch.
We came across this fastfood restaurant and ordered burgers,fries,etc.
Head back school again for our ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNOLOGY.

LOL.
I was so tired until i fell asleep for awhile.
OPPS!!! =XxX
And then after lessons Mr Chong showed us a movie called "Never Back Down".
It is about some kungfu show and there are good values to learn in the show.
NOT THE FIGHTING AH!!!
He showed us because we are going to the wudang mountain this weekend so ya =.=


Had dinner at the back alley AGAIN =.=


Oh!
I just found out today that if we call a woman here in China who can be anybody like stall holder or some passerby etc as "Xiao Jie", it is used to call women who are prostitutes @.@
And i found out that I have been calling those woman stall holders as Xiao Jie. OPPS =XxX
Well, we are so used to calling anonymous woman as Xiao Jie already and turns out that it meant some other things here in China.
So, don't ever any-o-how call Xiao Jie in China unless you really met a prostitute lah. 

GOODNIGHTS!!!!!


*****


WEEK 3:
Day FOURTEEN (16th March)

Rise and shine!
It's feels so good sleeping back in our dormitory although our beds are like so damn thin.
Woke up at 9am and got ready for ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNOLOGY lesson at 10am.

Pause lesson at 11 plus and went out for lunch at Macdonalds.(NOT CANTEEN FOOD LIAO!)
Suddenly we felt so welcomed when we were at Macdonalds.
The moment we stepped in Macdonals, we were approached by this Mac staff asking us the number of people we have. She told us that she will take our orders personally while we are seated. After waiting for just a minute, she appeared and gave us the menu. After ordering, we gave her cash and we waited for our food for around 10mins.
And the thing is, when we ask for less salt to our fries, they really put lesser salt!
(the reason is because at other places, when we request for lesser salt or oil, the people there doesn't seems to care what we asked for.)

SINGAPORE, SEE ANOT?

With services like that, more people will defintely come to Macdonalds for their meals.
It's like a sudden change of atmosphere because the first few times we came to Macdonalds here there's no such services, but right now they implement this service which I think it is good and better in the way that more customers will patron here and the queue at the counter will be shorter and so the waiting time will be faster.

SO, Singapore should have this kind of services too especially in crowded places like KAP Macdonalds nearby our school where lots of students will go there to hang out.


After lunch, we head back to WUST for our lessons again and also continued the "An Inconvievient Truth" by Al Glore.
After lessons, we head back to our dormitories and we girls got changed to our P.E attire and got prepared for

RUNNING!!!!!!

Wah, I tell you ah, I don't know how many months never go run already and I felt like an old woman after 2 rounds cannot take it anymore.
Our Liying damn strong sia!!!!!!
She run 7,8 rounds one leh!
HAHA, but me and vel after about 3 rounds went for a rest and joined her for another around 2 more rounds of jogging.
Due to their weather, running do makes us more hard to breathe and our throat will feel very dry. But, jogging slowly won't make us so tired due to the nice cold weather.
After jogging, we joined the rest for a game of badminton.
HAHA, also very long never play badminton already.


At least many of us finally start to excerise due to the oily and fatty food we consumed here for already about 2 weeks plus.

At around 7pm, all of us went to the back alley again for our dinner.
Ate egg la mian =)
After which we all head back to our little warm holes and rest for the day.


Not much things happen today except about the EXCELLENT service we received here in Wuhan for the first time and also the fact that WE FINALLY BURNT SOME CALORIES!!!!!
HAHA!!!
Tomorrow had to wake up early AGAIN for a trip to WuGang, a steel factory and we had to wear those smelly and dirty helmets.
GOODNIGHTS PEEPS =DDDDD
