Early in the morning, we have our Breakfast buffet in the hotel we stayed !!! then i saw this !!!

this sentence means :
[注释] 1．悯：怜悯。 2．锄禾：用锄头松禾苗周围土。 [简析] 这首诗是写劳动的艰辛，劳动果实来之不易。第一、二句“锄禾日当午，汗滴禾下土”描绘出在烈日当空的正午，农民仍然在田里劳动，这两句诗选择特定的场景，形象生动地写出劳动的艰辛。有了这两句具体的描写，就使得第三、四句“谁知盘中餐，粒粒皆辛苦”的感叹和告诫免于空洞抽象的说教，而成为有血有肉、意蕴深远的格言。

so we must cherish everything we ate !!!

WUDANG !!! DONG ~~~

Early in the morning , i have this cake-bread as my breakfast....i bought it at chicony's bread shop ....not breadtalk ! haha

the most outer layer is the pie .....then followed by the cake and the red bean !!! overall grade : 3/5

not that crispy but overall still ok ! :D i am a red bean lover ...haha

our lunch we went to chicony and have it ....i order the curry mushroom rice !!! not bad !!! :D
but i guess that they have added too much msg...

After that, instead of shopping in the Chicony shopping center which i find it meaningless cause the things is too expensive for me to buy....

i went to shop along the street outside the shopping mall....

saw this arcade ....

传说中的 - " 老虎机" direct translate....tiger machine !!! haha..can you spot the tiger ?? LOL

PLEASE insert your coin .,..

not much different if compared with singapore's timezone !

then i went in to this builing that is very similar to our SIM LIM SQUARE...all the shops in here sell technology stuff !!!

文化街 HERE I COME！！！　

Thanks to Yi jun for recommending the place to me !!! :D

the dinner we had in the cultural street...i ordered the soup while my friends ordered rice ....after they tasted the rice...their faces changes !!! i am not exggerating....as i tried, my first reaction was : is this RICE !!! ....as we look at the ingredients...there got peanuts cube size meat, green peas , carrot...etc... oh...forgot to tell you my friends orders 宫保鸡丁...WEIRD RICE !!!

Oh....and the drinks !!! it taste so diluted !!! and colour not matched what we had ordered too...eg..like bottom pic...the drink is in fact : ORANGE juice !!! don't look like right !!!

i top up 100 RMB just to order the curry rice....haha....crazy lo...

the 战利品　which strongly reflected our girl's power !!! haha

somemore, this shop give free tofu skin :P haha.....*cheapskate* LO

THen after that , we went to buy bananas for Aunt Tian and the maintenance guys, because ytd...we were supposed to go home early and open the doors for them to change the lightbulb...yet due to some event happening, all of us forgot about it !!! :X

Aunt Tian was so angry !!!!

...SO SORRY to cause the inconvinence !!!

As we are buying the bananas, the auntie help us weight till the price we want....

first , she cut the banana into half....as she weighted the kg still did not hit...so she cut two more and put above ....

end up we almost buy the whole bunch of banana excluding 2 ! haha....that was hilarious !

CAN'T believe china has breadtalk lo.....at first Mr Wee told me about it and i thought he was just kidding.......

my first reaction was : OMG , is that our singapore BREADTALK !!! haha

All these shops can be found in the chicony shopping center....this shopping center is very high class...which is similar to singapore takashimaya !

Mr Wee bought us to a chinese restaurant !!!

see the GOLDEN spoon ??? is so grand lo...haha....now i am in the high class level :P

hmm....i love 青岛啤酒 is a must try in CHINA !!!

look so grand that i did not used it !!!
now i am thinking .... " aiya, should have used it lo !!! what a pity " haha....i am crazy ....don't bother about me !

We went on another outing again ! gained lot of experiences again !:D
this time outing we went to a taoism temple

Something to share : Taoism is a natural theory including the inner-laws of everything in the universe, regardlless how big it is. Scholars of the past named this as the theory of Lord Lao Tzu. The work of Lao Tze, Dao De Jing is a beacon for later generation. The doctrines and theory of Lao Tzu have laid a foundation for taoism .

道可道，非常道。 (Tao (way or path) can be said, not usual way)

"The Way that can be described is not the true Way."

名可名，非常名。 (names can be named, not usual names)

"The Name that can be named is not the constant Name."

NICE ~~~

the nurse who took the medicine...."throw" the medicine to me and not "take' ! furthermore , the medicine just dropped nicely out of the small window opening and land in front of me....lol

i wonder how many times she has done that and achieved such a "GREAT" skill ...haha''

you see the different service attitudes between the nurse and doc...yet i paid only 0.5 Yuan to see the doc and 6.80 yuan to the nurse for my medicine......#! ##@$@Ee$%#@ how unfair the world is .lo...haha

yuan ) so two of us sharing one plate....is quite a big portion !!!

This is what they had ordered....mushroom with vege ....

The dishes tasted excellent !!! :D simple yet NICE !!! although it was too heavy in taste such as too salty and oily to me....but overall ...i will give 5/5 for the rice ! :D

say hi to the chef!

His wife....who is very friendly ^ ^

Then at 12 midnight, a bunch of us went to knocked at Xiu jin's doorstep since it was her birthday on the 23 march!

It was a pity that our Surprised plan fail, because XJ has already look through the eye-hole and knew we are outside….

Just as we finished singing her Happy Birthday Song, her neighbor who live beside us, came in with a clock …

He reprimanded us, told us off that we are way too noisy and has disturbed his sleeping…of course we are guilty. But that is not the way we want. … you know we are teenagers right ! We have tried our very best to lower our volume le….anyway,I will still say sorry to you ! SORRY, and please bear with us for another 23 days :D !

Sorry , don't have picture about her celebration because i bought my camera there and realised my memory card is still in my notebook !!! ARGH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I WONDER WHY THERE IS A BUMP IN MY FINGER ?

致给最敬爱的外公，
对不起，我不能去参加您的葬礼。。。礼贤说得对。。。我是不孝的孙女。。。
可能。。。在您的记忆力，我有时会被您遗忘。。。也或许您也已经忘了我这个孙女的名字。

还记得去年，我回去探望您吗？那时的您，消瘦许多，　再也不会逗我开心大笑。。。
我问自己：小时候的点点滴滴我记得那一些又忘了那一些？
回想起去年，我还在帮您服药，而今天。。。从哥哥那得知来的消息是多么震惊！
对不起，我只能在这默默的些这封信。。。眼前的我爱莫能助。。。以后的我会想念您吗？

但是庆幸的是，　您是在睡梦中安然离去。。。
死亡？　恐怖吗？。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。

我将会吃一个月的素菜！！！

Morning lesson with Mr Andy, he teaches us economy again ! then when our lesson ended, perhaps as what you have expected , yup , we went to the food street again !!! haha….this time I have another type of burger. :D but Too oily le ….shall not make the same mistake again :P
Then went back to our hostel and rest.

At four pm , we meet Teacher Edith to go to massage center ( those healthy type de ) !!! While walking towards the massage center we saw a shopping mall which put “Guang Shan Pi Shi chang 光山批发市场 “ !!! Yes, another new place found…when we reached the place, we knew that there is not the kind of massage we want, because the services they provide in chinese is call 推拿 while want we want is those relaxing type. Haha

the malay mosque in China , rare place !

So while waiting for Mr Wee we went to the Pi fa shi chang批发市场， at there I saw a lot FRESH VEGE !!! haha,,, so I buy some and intended to cook for tomorrow dinner ! :D finally, I can drink some healthy soup !

So we went to have dinner at a high class restaurant, it also sell western food too, the place is quite nice ! I shall say romantic for couple …haha…since the place is a bit dark , what is in your food , you also won’t know….then got flies you also eat inside !!! LOL

After finished dining, we walked back to our hostel and saw a group of them dancing. I guess this is something similar in Singapore, you know those Community Center , whereby they will organise this type of activities and invite resident to participate :D

Some pictures of the day

I wonder why the car plates have Yellow and Blue in colour ? Do you know why there is a 鄂 in front of the plate number? I will let you know in the next post ^^ ...

As we walked to school, We saw a tag , that wrote “ please protect our green environment “ thought is was interesting for school to do this , so I took down the picture ! :D

For today lunch, I tried the biscuit , when I was about to pay for that, I realized that I forgot to bring my wallet.

When the Uncle knew it , he told me , is ok …but i insisted on paying him so I borrow money from Eileen and all are coins - ten Yi jiao … when I gave it to him, he told me he don’t need to count and he just put the coins into the box without even looking at the money….i was so touched by his action !!! He make me feel that I am trusted .

A new teacher came in to teaches us and her name is Edith.

I like her lesson very much , perhaps is because what she teaches is very related to our lives in future...like the culture difference, the chinese's belief. And also let us know about the inner side of China.

When her lesson ended, She bought us to a new place whereby we can shop and eat ! While walking towards the shopping mall, she told us details about the cherry blossom and botanic gardens. :D i shall go there before i go back to Singapore !!!

Their food court is in one corner...quite ulu place, while in singapore...food court..is usually in basement or the upper most floor !

Discovered new bakery shop, have my lunch there too,the bread taste so nice and fresh that one is not enough so I buy somemore bread home for breakfast!! ^^ hehe…. look at the lowest left corner...that one is black charcoal BREAD !!! CREATIVE right !!! :D

I witnessed a scene of thick black smoke, which formed a balloon size in the sky, maybe far away there is a house on fire…( ytd witnessed an incident , today witnessed fire ) LOL
Then we went to XJ house to cook porridge as dinner….

Going to school as usual, today weather is very SUNNY ! Thus one piece of cloth is enough to keep us warm, I ate a burger for lunch, its very nice!!! But I think it is too oily and salty le…maybe next time I will ask the uncle not to add salt on my egg . haha….then while we are walking back, I witnessed an incident think is a motorbike get knocked down by a car!!! See ,the result of reckless driving …I think this is expected as the traffic in china is really in a mess.

March 14

Went to hankou and I didn’t buy anything …RARE scene, haha. After finish shopping the area , I feel that it the whole area is something similar to Singapore’s river…as it got those bronze structure and those tall commercial buildings. At lunch time, I ordered baked rice while my friends ordered crab meat porridge ( real CRAB) then the rest ordered those pan frying food…my baked rice has only 1 prawn and the rest were Green PEAs, corn and carrot ! LOL

….after lunch I tried a Portuguese egg tart, which I feel it is ten times better than the KFC ones ^^ , they also have other flavours like cappuchino , red bean and vanilla ,only managed to try cappuchino flavor. T_T

After finished shopping , Bernice ‘s bought a BING TANG STRAWBERRY from one of the food stall, it taste like crystal sweet …not bad…!!! ^^ so after that , we meet up with the rest of them and we walk a long distance to a street, the street is very unglam….as litter is all around….and people smoking, talking loudly and even play Majiong ( PRO) in the center of the road.
Finally, we reach a shopping center . The shopping mall is something like Takashimaya…all sell branded shops but we went there only for their toilet ,haha. I thought their toilet will also be grand but to my disappointment there is no hangers to hang bag… even worst no toilet paper!! Somemore, the cleaner is busying looking at its own fingernail….chit-chating with another cleaner. CLOSED MY EYES , not to see better…haha
Then for dinner we eat mac and home sweet home. :D

FISHING .... see the long fishing rod !!! .................

NICE STRUCTURE :P

see those stalls ? is like our market !

nice right ?

STORY PIC : Eileen bought a minnie mouse balloon...then as we walked toward the street....halfway the balloon flew away ...lol.........is short yet true story....

Today having Mr Wee lesson again , another cold and windy day, I wore 4 layers of clothes, glove, scarf everything... like what Mr Wee said Hero died early! Haha…then after his lesson we went back to the food street near our school to have lunch , I had a heavy lunch, first I ate fried ball, is very chewy @ thanks Bernice for her recommendation :D , then I ate the red bean cake ,, -perhaps I bought this at another stall thus I felt that I don’t like the red bean, maybe next time I bought again at different store. After my lunch, i bought strawberries !!! it seem to be nice !!!
^ ^

Then XJ bought a crispy roll which I feel is something similar to our popian ,,,she said it taste cold and not nice so she ate half and threw away. Then saw some classmates gathered at the soup stall, so i went forward and they are buying the soups , those who tried immediatiately keep saying it taste nice, haha....then I also follow them and buy a bowl of mixed soup .I agreed that it taste nice but just a little too salty for me. After that Xiu Jin bought another type of biscut and this time it was stone biscuit….i tried some not bad…^^

After the heavy lunch , we walked to the TAI YANG CHENG ….it seem to be interesting when the bus passed by but when we have a nearer look there is nothing really interesting except for a deer we seen being kept in a cage. So we took cab to carrefour - S.H.O.P !!! ^^ Here come an incident > Bernice went into an accessories shop and her bag accidentally knocked down a plastic coin bank, because of some scratches on the coin bank , the salesgirl asked Bernice to pay for it . In the end, we didn't paid. ( TEDIOUS PROCESS SHALL KEPT IT A SECRET ....you know ! BU NENG SHUO DE MI MI 不能说的秘密)

Dinner at kfc ,ate the new tart ( yam) however i perferred the original egg tart . :P

A RUBBISH DUMP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FOOD STREET !!!

Since our lessons for today is starting at 8.15 am , we need to get up at 6am !!!
We look at the weather and thought, it should be ok for us to wear only two pieces, however, we regretted, after we went out of our house, the weather changes as it started to get windy and soon it rained.

We faster walk toward Xiu jin’s house for breakfast - skippy peanut and bread ! then waited for the rest of our classmates to get ready and we prepared to walk to school . As we stepped out of the building , the cold wind blew on our face which made us shivered even my teeth are frozen ….LOL

As we saw the guys hailed the taxi , we faster learnt from them and took taxi to school … I really cannot imagine what to do without the ride…

Met our new lecturer call Andy Xi, he taught us china economics. …the basic economics as he said if we were to study in-depth it will be very difficult even for their own students too.
I feel that I was studying geography …

Then went back to write blog !
In the afternoon , I , together with my clique and the CEE guys went for lunch …we went to a small fast food restaurant that is in our campus, which sell something similar like KFC, then they ordered fried food which included the wrapped chicken , chicken burger and ice-cream.realized they called chilli sauce as Tian La Jian then , we said $4.50 which is Si kuai Ban, they said it Si kuai Wu.

Then went home and I cooked porridge for Yan khee, it is my honoured to cook for her :D !!!
Finally got people appreciated my cooking ,,,,*wink* I am so happy !
Then at night continued to blog and play pet society haha

Mr Wee second lesson is being conducted today ,I realized that different environment provides different kinds of feeling but still did not affect my sleepiness .

After the lessons, we went to the food street with is just beside our school building ,and overthere, you don’t need to worry about no food to eat or not enough money to spend, the only thing to worry is… what to eat !!! LOL . Because there is too many food stalls ….which make me giddy.

OK , some creative food to share with you guys ! “D

Why it is called "POP" corn ???

Because when the popcorn is ready is will Release a BOMB sound !!! (Which IS VERY LOUD )

thus, it is called POP corn !!! :D

Wake up to meet the rest of them, :D , have plain green bean porridge for breakfast it cost only $1 ! Than as a group we walked toward our school, wait! not only walk but climbed too !!! We climbed seven story high then by the time we reached, we discovered that the gate is lock !!! Argh, need to climb another seven story again ! But, I am happy because it help me burned lot of calories , wahahaha.
(see the FIRST LINE OF THE SECOND PIC )

Today is our first lesson which is taught by Mr Wee, now he is my Project management lecturer not ELS anymore, LOL. Then Alicia was drawing a picture of him , cute ? I think is cute …haha….Today lessons, I have learnt something similar to Building & Technology ( BTC ) , other than that I learnt that how important people management is !

Our internet cannot connect to the wireless thus at 3 pm we need to go back to classroom again to make our wireless connection , so we went back to the street and had our lunch, I have Pig long powder (ZHU CHANG FEN 猪肠粉） as my lunch …..

The pig long powder is very different from Singapore . our has cha siew inside while their has a lot of variety – like egg chang fen, ham , beef, chicken chang fen...for you to choose !!!

I tried the egg one, is it very very nice, nicer than the one I had in singapore ! however, it was too salty for me , I guess it is due to the sauce the auntie put. I am going to try it again next time and ask the auntie not to put too much sauce !

O ya, I have tried their big crispy biscuit too, noted one thing , must eat while it is hot cause if it is not hot the biscuit will be difficult to bite !

Climb seven storey again !

PS: Yan khee is sick today ! Hope she can get well soon ! :D

March 09

Wake up at 8.30, meeting Bao Hui and the rest for breakfast , before I left the room I remember that I want to bring tissue out, went back to my luggage and realized a shocking thing, my lock cannot be open !!! At that moment, I was terrified , imagined all my clothes and money were locked , how am I going to survive for the rest of the weeks , OMG ! Then Eileen went down to help me ask the auntie for solutions while Yan khee and I were busying solving the code. I am so scared that my locked cannot be opened, then one uncle came to help me, I told him what has happened and after a 10 minutes wait , surprisingly, the uncle managed to help me unlock my lock ! It was totally amazing ! I really want to praised the people here !!! THANKS UNCLE !!! YOU ARE SUCH A PRO !

Finally, I can have my breakfast in peace ^ ^ , I have HOT strawberry bubble tea as I want to save space for other foods later on , after breakfast we took 715 to ya mao shopping center.

saw this during the bus journey....what a creative way to promote their products !!! thumb up !!!

The shopping center there is something similar to our paragon , takashimaya, you know all the high class shopping mall, so i didn’t get anything from there , we decided to go Carrefour which is located in the Nu Xiang Square, as we were trying to find the nearest bus-stop , we saw a lot of shops that is having discounted tee-shirt , see the pictures, we spend hours on the street by going into one shop followed by another which located besides.

Every place we went the salespersons will get very happy as they get to earn a lot of business transactions. Overall , I spent about 200 RMB…haha, the clothes there are cheap and style, convert to sing dollar I have spent about $50 . See the last pictures below to see what we get :D

After that we hail taxi back to our hostels, we were trying very hard to tell the driver that the place is Wuhan Zhi Ye Ji Shu Xue Yuan , then the driver keep saying Wu ji Wuji shi bu shi ??? haha, all of us had no idea what he is talking about but thanks goodness we still arrived our hostel smoothly! The driver asked us where we from , and we told him we are Singaporean. He told us that he thought we were Vietnamese. LOL … now we since to be resemble a lot of areas of citizen. E,g Taiwan, Hainan , haha…I think I will hear more areas.

The driver is very kind to introduce us places that have nice scenarios one example is Dong hu. He explained to us that the place has a lot of beautiful views which allowed us to take lots of pictures..:D

PS :
As we shopped down the street, I realized how the people do their business. Some examples to share with..for example We went into a wallet shoes and Xiu jin purchased a purse from them. When the transaction is successful, the girl at the counter will shout , “ Kai Xin ma? “ which means are you happy? Then the rest will reply” KAI XIN ( HAPPY)” . I feel that this is kinda like TQM ! LOL

Another example is the shoe shops, in the shop there are two categories of people which separated into male and female , the male will take charge of the shoes while the female will serve the customer. Let say, I want size number 34 , the salesgirl will shout the number code and size out loudly then the man will find and take (throw) the shoes to her… I feel that Teamwork take a very important part in their jobs without good communication , work cannot be done too ! :D

their cinema

Today is a special day as it is called woman’s day ! san ba fu nu jie 三八妇女节 –

we woke up at 6.30 am had our breakfast at 7.30am…head back to our room to wait for our ship to reach it destination, since there is still time I shall take few more pictures before I left this long and beautiful chang jiang.

At about 2pm the boat arrived at yi chang’s harbor , all of us alights safely with our bulky luggage – climb the stairs walk a long distance and get to our bus ! Phew….sleep the entire journey back to wuhan , I really must praised the drivers in china for their driving skills ! Bought a copy of China ‘s newspaper, saw a lot of wedding’s cars, i make an inference that perhaps march 08 was a good day thus that is the reason why many brides get married on that day.

Even our place where we have lunch have people getting married lol . haha ,btw,… the bride is beautiful. (Look at the pic). Dinner, I ate biscuits , busying posting and do the washing of our clothes , see how hardworking I am !

Overall
Since our room is so near to each other , within three days I managed to make friends with all the rest of the students who were from FMB , CEE , REB ( different path )like Bao hui, Alicia, Carmen the ABC , Huixin , Kai fu, Tee yong,etc , they were all friendly and fun !!!
Since the time staying in our room is quite boring, often ,we will gathered in one room to chit-chat , ate tibits , play games like murderer! Haha, shall never forget these days in my life ! thanks all of you for making my days in the boat so fun and interesting. We also make friends with the tour guide, she is only 21 years old !!!

some photos of us !!! :D

the restaurant we went !!! see the bride ???

SUMPTIOUS MEAL !!!

Eating Mates , PRO in EATING !!! see the before and after pics !!! haha

ALL ABOUT PICTURE SLIDES

千言万语说不尽，一切尽在不言中

2009-03-14T19:43:00.000-07:00

March 07

Wake up at 6 am in the morning, our room got broadcasting so at 6am sharp, they will put music to wake us up. And the music they put is….Yue liang dai pie wo de xin 月亮代表我的心 , gan lan shu橄榄树 , all those classic songs , haha made me want to sleep some more instead of waking up . LOL

Then at 7am we have our breakfast in the cruise, since we are on the river so our meal is a stable one ! The Mantou is tasteless, and after trying their porridge I get to know why is that called Xi Fan稀饭 , haha . Overall, I liked their peanut, mee suan and egg !!! :D cause egg provides me protein, LOL.

After breakfast we went to the Guang Jin Tai, which is the area where we can view the pictorial scenarios. I took a lot a lot pictures for the purposes to let your all see, haha, see how kind am I. Must give me gifts for that hor, haha, no la just kidding.

After that, we changed to another small boat which it sent us to reached the Shennong xi 神农溪(length 60m), which is a place where it is a national tour spot.

You may look at the photos which can be found in slides for description of the river :D

On the boat, I took lots of pictures with my friends as well as Mr Wee ( our lecturer cum leader-in-charge ) , then we change boat again, this time , to an even smaller type, those boats that you can see in the olden drama, all the mountains remind me of Yang Guo and Xiao long nu . Xiao long nu = Xiao long bao! Haha.

Before we heading to the smallest boat, we were told to better go toilet first as the river trip will probably took 2 hours. Because of this, I witnessed UGLY Chinese ( citizens of China ) , we walked down the stair and saw a long queue in front of the toilet’s door. No choice, we joined the queue, when it was going to be our turn, some China’s ladies try to cut our queue.. the previous badge was right : LEAVE NO GAP while you are queuing . We prevented them from cutting our queue, and was shocked to see them cutting the male’s queue and went into the male toilet..Conclusion for this scene : They are so ROUGH and VIOLENT !!!

Next, we went to board the small boat, the experiences is scary yet exciting. As this is the first time I took this type of boat. The tour guides explained to us that the two man behind the boat , the one standing is lao da, while another is lao er, the rest is lao san , lao shi and lao wu. ( I only took pic of lao da and lao er cause I am sitting at the back )

All of them address each other by calling huo ji 伙计 , which means good pals and good friends, thus the tour guide also address us by huo ji.

She told us that they have 3 precious things which is –

fishing don’t need rod, frying fish don’t need oil and lastly, don’t need to look after their goat.

I also learnt that the ropes they used is a very unique one, which can withstand strong weight ! it is called “ma sheng麻绳” . Then she told us, how the fishermen there increase their income level from agriculture lifestyle to ecotourism and had a better lifestyle.

I am shocked about their salary as the fishermen earned 25 RMB each day , to us is only $5 but to them is a lot , and after accomplished their tasks they still need to climb the mountain and back to their homes. By the way, I was told that the mountain don’ t have dangerous animal like tigers , the only animal is monkey which they called “ xiao ni hou小泥猴” .

This was a fruitful trip and I even learnt how to sing their traditional songs, haha.
Today is called – zao men
Tomorrow is called - meng tian
The day before is called – hou tian

PS: something sad has happened during the visiting, Eileen dropped her gloves which worth $200 over into the river!!! The Lao da told us that it can’t be possible to retrieve since it float away very fast while another guy which hold a professional camera take down the photo and say he will sent it to Eileen for memory. LOL . Eileen : don’t be sad k , I believe you will find another identical hand gloves soon at a very low price :D

Then we went back to our Yin yue liang for lunch and proceed to another destination which is the Bai di chen, wow, I really like the place a lot caused a lot of photos to take ^ ^( winked ) so happy. Enjoyed the photos that I took ! ^ ^

While we head back to the Yin yue liang , we bought some tibits since we are hungry, I have bought something like ting ting tang, but instead of ting ting tang it is ginger type of sweet ! it taste wonderful ! ^ ^ hoped I have a chance to buy it again .
I also tried small prawn that taste like xia mi and sweet potato which tasted different from the ones I had in Singapore.

Forgive me for being too tired to take our dinner photos! Too tired.

Pictures taken in BAI DI MIAO

HIHI ....LOL

March 06

OFF to Yi Chang’s 3 Days 2 Night cruise - meet at 11pm with the rest and we took off by bus… the journey from Wuhan to Yi Chang is 4 hours plus, as the journey is long, so the driver will stop and let us have a "break" ! ...during the break, i ate an egg which i felt very salty and i also discovered a new thing which is their toilet's flushing method !!! It is different from Singapore's public toilet. Look carefully at the metal part ...you flush by stepping on that...isn't that great ?

Then we continued on our long long journey for another 2 hours…some pictorial views to share :D ....looking at these farmlands ...made me feel relaxing ... what about you ?

Zoom in to look at the brown colour , hill like structure....i am curious to know what is that ! haha...but i guess it is used to start fire ..

Looking at the truck reminded me of the Fedex advertisment ! lol ....

The yellow part is all form by a type of flower called You Cai Hua (油菜花), Xiu Jin and I called it 菊花台( linked to JAy cHou's movie ! ) LOL

Buffalo is so hardworking....we should learn from them ....haha

While i was on the bus, i saw this big black thingy and don't know what is that ...after that i figured out that it is the nest of the birds ... !....! haha....noticed that the nest is much more bigger than the nest i had seen in Singapore...

Arrving soon , :D

I SUPPORT GREEN ENVIRONMENT ^ ^ .....i noticed there are a lot of Mcdonald's in China .

Finally , we reached Yi Chang! :D
A tour guide called Miss Chen, bought us to this restaurant for dinner, at there I discovered one interesting thing which is the way they “ mop “ their floor…they use big size clothe which I think is table cloth to wipe the floor. They spray water and used their legs to drag and clean in front of us. LOL , next time maybe we can learn from them , haha…

SAY CHEESE !!!

AMong the 9 dishes , i like this dish the BEST !!! but too bad, the shells is just used for decoration purpose...no meat de...

Duck soup...

SEe this pic and you shall know which dish is nice and which is not ...haha

After a very full meal we proceeded on to our nice 4 star ****cruise called Yin Yue liang 银月亮 !

A picture with our tour guide,,,take note :this is not Miss Chen but another tour guide.

see the pictures of our room ， is it nice ?

i have a BIG hand...wahaha

Must always know how to escape when there is a fire....you know !!! JUST IN CASE ...ermm...

Inside the cruise....

Witnessed the powerful dam which is the world’s biggest dam , I am so thrilled and exciting ! can’t believe our boat has raised so high !

March 05

We wake up at 7pm since we need to gather at 9pm sharp to familiarize with the environment of our school. I liked the hostel that we lived in, it is cosy and warm, which gives a homely like feeling.

Miss Wong, a lecturer of Wuhan institute of technology was the person-in-charge who shows us around, I feel that she is friendly and nice as she answer all our questions politely without showing any impatient signs ( we ask quite a lot of questions)!!!

From the pic below shows our footprints left ...first we passed by Supermarket, library, local student hostels , bigger library then after going to the eating street which is opposite our school we took bus off to LU XIANG SHOPPING MALL :D

I realised that their canteen, unlike us, required the students to buy a dining card in order for students to buy their food. The method is quite similar to our Singapore’s foodcourt which named “ Kopitiam “ .

We used the underpass which also has some shops located there then I tried their famous dish “ gan lao mian 干捞面 “ taste not bad， just a bit too dry….haha…that’s why it called “ GAN 干 not SHI湿 lao mian”. They also sell Bubble tea , but is HOT bubble tea ! I tried the strawberry milk tea and think that it is better than the cold type of bubble tea.
For the food, I shall use pictures instead of words to elaborate …haha…don’t worry I will prepare tissue for you just in case you drool.

I think our rubbish bin should also be like them , instead of one , have two ! one contain rubbish that is recyclable while another is other waste like food waste, plastic waste etc.

Just now is their gracious side, now let you see the ungracious part !!!

Went to our classroom to familarise with the environment, so i took down the fire escape route pic , just in case....you know, many things we cannot predict.

By the way, our classroom is located at 7 storey , NO LIFT must use LEG to climb up the stairs. ( after counting , total is 148 steps. haha , we so bo liao )

Their carplates are BLUE while ours are RED . Another colour , another feeling :D

These are some vege lands that i found beside our School !

Some colourful and cute balloons for you ???

Pic of Xiu jin and me ! ^ ^ Notice our clothing ??? Cold ~~~!

Then, we took bus no. 510 to Lu Xiang Square and we shopped the Nike and Adidas shops, I heard my friends said the stuff here is cheaper by 30 -40 percent !!! I must buy some back to Singapore .

I saw this lady reading the copy of newspaper, i am curious how their newspaper is like...so i tell myself i will buy some copy and read ! :D ...i think is interesting to compare how their newspaper is different from us ! haha

When we reached Lu Xiang Square, we
used the "overhea" bridge, and i saw this lady sleeping on the floor ( shivering) wonder, i should give her some money, but i heard from my friends that this is a common scene which they used to beg for money.

I noticed their transportation is

VERY different from singapore. First , the bus driver do not wait for passenger who slowly take their own sweet time when boarding and alighting. As a passenger in China, regardless you are boarding or alighting, one word is , you must be quick !!! If not you will miss your bus and alight at further stop !

Another things is, they can drive motor up to the "overhead" bridge.

PRO !!!

some SOTONG for you ???

See their student can make student card at KFC !

I bought the portuguese tart as before i came to China, a tawainese friend me , the KFC egg tarts is a must try item! It cost me 5 RMB ( $1plus) Trust me , IS VERY NICE !!! heavenly taste... the filling will melt in your mouth as you bite the crispy outer layer together with filling.

Then, we took bus no. 510 to Lu Xiang Square and we shopped the Nike and Adidas shops, I heard my friends said the staff here is cheaper by 30 -40 percent !!! I must buy some back to Singapore . Our next stop is Carrefour ,since we are going to live in China to 42 days, we must buy some daily items like mop, detergent , dish washer, canned food, maggi mee and a lot more ! Which piled up to 100 over RMB.

Btw....i forgot to mention that when we entered carrefour , we need to lock our bag or put it into a locker they had provided ! And the people down there, make me feel like the carrefour is having some big sales or what as all of them seem to be so rush when they entered carrefour! They pushed us if we accidentally blocked them. They are just so impolite !

Last stop : HOME !!!

I like their tissue packaging , is so NICE !!! CUTE !!! and PRETTY !!! unlike the tissue we seen in Singapore ! their tissue is much more unique while our tissue is ( LOOK AT THE 3rd PICTURE)...i think i will not bear to throw the plastic away...haha

maybe is because of their population of people, they sell thing such as rice, egg and frozen seafood, in gram and number.

i guess the way they put their seafood will not be allow in Singapore due to hygeiene purposes.

don't you think the mangoes are cute ?

Bought some tomatoes, a tomato a day keep me healthy !

March 04 ( Day 1 )

Today, I woke up at 4 am !!! The earliest day that I woke up of my whole entire life !!! But, anyway, I slept at 2 am, so make no different . Haha. And want to thanks my dear mother very very much… she was so worried that she sacrificed her sleep to make sure I woke up on 4 am. T_T *sniff*

After that, I went to do last minute checking and see if I had left out anything, then left home at about 5 plus , my father drive me to the airport as I was carrying two large luggages , I cannot imagine how I make it to china with this two bags !

The rest of my friends- Eileen, Xiu jin , Yan khee and Bernice have arrived when I reached the airport….so we went forward to meet the rest. We waited for our turn to check-in and I realized one good point about group travelling is that we don’t need to queue up !!! haha… so don’t need to squeeze with the other passengers.

pic on the left ) : is my luggages and Xiu jin's luggages

on the left is Eileen and Yan khee' s luggages

Our group photo before we board on the plane ! YIPEE !

We have no time to shop in the departure hall so we just went straight to board the china southern airlines . In the plane, I got to know two new friends – one is Jack boon and another is Jit Siong .
Poor him, because I slept almost the entire plane journey so he had a hard time waking me up for breakfast. :X

This is a combined pictures that i took ! NICE ???

the airlines that we took is China Southern airlines, if you ask me ask or not , i would reply : i prefer SIA ! ^^ haha...support own brand ma

Air plane food - MY FIRST MEAL

I guess this is the dessert! Sweet potato and jelly in sugar syrup

THis is a COLD dish ! "cold" vege with chili (sad to say that it is not nice)

I ate mostly the fish and rice ! For the vege it is TOO salty for me.

LEt me introduce my clique to you :D

start from left : Yan Khee, Bernice, Xiu Jin, Eileen and last but not least ME ! ^^

we will be living together for the next 42 days !!! ^^

We reached Guangzhou airport, at about 2 pm then we went to MacDonald and had our lunch. Their Mac is cheaper compare to the Mac in Singapore. Hope i had a chance to try their Hotcake in Wuhan ^ ^ ,the Macdonald's sell one special which singapore cannot sell, and that is Mcpork!!! haha,...interesting! i will try in someday.....then the services they provided is excellent and I learnt a word from them too.

You know the stick that use to stir hot drink ? , they called it “ bang zi” if I did not hear it wrongly .

some photos of shops in the airport

At 3 pm, we proceeded on to change plane to Wuhan. When we reached Wuhan, we need to transfer again, this time to bus…all of us was like …Huh…..again !!! Haha, cannot blame ! imagine we had been travelling for the whole day. O ya, I forgot to mention about the weathers there. .. Guangzhou is 12 degree when we reached then Wuhan is 6 degree so the degree is getting even colder. I faster wore all my coats to keep myself warm while my hands are shaking non-stop… we get so cold that we “smoke” in Wuhan . However, we smoked without lighting up a single cigarette , AMAZING ? LOL, because the smoke came out naturally from our mouth.

The weather is so different from Singapore's weather , imagine from 28 degree and over to 12 degree and less !!! Woooo....cold ....

Finally, we arrived at our hostels, it was 7pm and although the time seem early but the sky looks like it is 11 to 12 pm. I shared the apartment with Eileen and Yan khee. While, Xiu jin and Bernice shared one apartment. That day, we were all tired and had an early night after a very chilling bath.
