day 42 back to singapore

today is our last day in wuhan we woke up early and did some area cleaning and then we move our luggage down the stairs while we waited for the bus. then we moved up the bus and bid good by to the the lady who was in-charge of our hostel. Looking at the bus leave the school compounds some of them cried on the way to the airport looking back at the happy and sad moments we shared through out the 42 days.

my reflection

after this journey i have made many friends and have acquired many knowledge as well as experience. I have learn to cherish and make the most out of this trip , after this i am able to put what i learn to use.during this trip i have many friends espically the 21 guns which made wonderful memories for the past 42days, they will not be forgotten .

quote of the day

Without friends no one would choose to live, though he had all other goods.

day 41 last minute

Today was another early morning I went down to buy my last breakfast in wuhan and sent the laundry for washing. While waiting for the rest to wake up I started blogging the past few entries , around noon we got ready and headed to grand ocean for a last minute of shopping . then we ended our day with us celebrating chin kuang birthday in the open which almost woke up the whole campus .

the last time we went to grand ocean

our usual dinner stall

my reflection

today is day 41 which is the last day at wuhan soon we are able to go back to singapore. this evening when we are leaving grand ocean i felt really sad to leave such a beautiful place. Leaving the saddness behind us we are still able to bring back wonderful memories with us .

quote of the day

The memory should be specially taxed in youth, since it is then that it is strongest and most tenacious. But in choosing the things that should be committed to memory the utmost care and forethought must be exercised; as lessons well learnt in youth are never forgotten.

Arthur Schopenhauer (1788 - 1860)

day 40 fare well dinner

day38

Today I woke up knowing that there was no class room for our flexsim presentation today we went to prepare for another shopping trip to chevony shopping center. It was an hour journey trip to our destination, it was a smooth journey till the second van broke down, they got down the van and waited for the uncle to change the tires and soon we are back on track again. After we reached our destination we went for lunch at ajisen ramen again as usual we ordered lots food again and it caught the attention of the people beside us .Then we proceeded for another round of shopping which lasted till night then we went back by cab.

the rest sitting opposite us


my reflection

today during lunch at ajisen i noticed something that dose not happen in singapore.when we ordered our food i saw a couple walking over their tables and sitting beside us at first i thought that their table was not cleared but when the waiter came over to ask why did they changed place they gave sorts of funny reasons to change their seats . they ended up confusing the orders of the surrounding table being at fault they argued with the staff and complained about their poor service and being slow.In my opinonion i feel that that situation is much like in singapore because that i feel that us as consumers treat service staff badly however when we work at these places and get treated the same way we treat other service staff we usually curse and swear at these people . thus i think that we should reflect on our behaviors before treating others baddly.

quote of the day

If you go in for argument, take care of your temper. Your logic, if you have any, will take care of itself.

day 37 day before flexsim submission

Woke up early today to finish the assignment 3 but there was some errors till Mr. loh came over our hostel to lend us some help nonetheless we were done as soon as we could then we went around in the noon to help. Most of us finished our assignment by 5pm and we headed back to Grand Ocean for dinner reaching there around 7pm we had little time to shop. We had our dinner at ajisen ramen and ordered tons of food then we headed for some shopping again, I finally managed to get some shoes and we ended our day taking the van back to the hostel

we have to record where we are going each time we leave the school compounds

day36 shopping day

Day 36
Today was another shopping day at grand ocean we took the usual van however this time we squeeze 10person in to the van. Although there was nothing much to buy the journey to and fro was always filled with laughter and joy. Soon the 8days national holiday is ending the school is once busy again living in a empty school is quite boring as most shops in the night market and school are closed .

The cup i got in china MacDonald











My reflection
Whenever I am taking the van back to the hostel I can always hear the driver telling us about the history of china. Sometimes I start to think that china people are more patriotic as compared to Singapore in china most people can tell us a short story about their country pass but here in Singapore most people is unable to narrate a small part of Singapore history.I think that we should learn more and be proud of our heritage , also we should be like the Chinese in Wuhan where they are proud of their country .

Ne message of the day
We have confidence in our future. United, determined and well-prepared, we have what it takes to build a bright future for ourselves, and to progress together as one nation.
Ne message of the day
Singapore is our homeland; this is where we belong.
We treasure our heritage and take pride in shaping our own unique way of life.
