Back in Singapore...

Gloria is back in Singapore...

At 9am sharp on the Monday morning, we board up the bus and headed to Wuhan Airport. That was my very last glance at Wuhan University of Science & Technology. I just simply miss everything that we have gone through for the past 42 days. I just can't believe time passes this quick.

After which, we took a domestic flight from Wuhan till GuangZhou airport.

& At GuangZhou airport, we had nearly 4 hours of break before we get on to the plane and head back to Singapore. This was also the very last time i went to Macdonald and had my Pork Burger, which Singapore will never have it. We walked around the skymall before we enter the gates.

Flight from GuangZhou to Singapore was much longer, and that was when many things went thru my mind. Tears roll down my cheeks as i ponder.

Usually at this time, i would either be asleep or having fun at one of the 21 guns hostel. But it will never happen again... Though this trip have come to an end, but our friendships would be forever. Thanks everyone for the wonderful memories you guys have left in my heart. You'll never be forgotten.

Loves....

Last post in Wuhan- Day 42

I would like to wish ChinKuang a Happy 18th birthday! We celebrated his birthday past 12 in the campus, however drizzle came. We then headed back and waited for the rain to become smaller before we could put the fireworks which we intially planned.
As early as 5am, the drizzle finally stopped. We headed out of domitory and put fire works! This is something that i will never ever get to do in Singapore. We only paid about 12 SGD for 24 fireworks! That's madness. Fun and laughter were everywhere, just that it is going to end in few hours time... :(
Some of us stayed awake and waited for the sun to rise. Many of us hope the sun does not rise, because when the sunrise, it means is 12 Oct 2009, the day we are heading back to Singapore. :(
It end tonight...
Shall start to pack my luggage now. I guess the next time you would see me blogging is in Singapore.... GLORIA LOVE WUHAN!

Day 41 in Wuhan

Today, we went to Grand Ocean for our last shopping. & we came back early to the hostel.
Once we reached hostel, the first thing we did was to buy all the food we love from the street hawker despite we were pretty bloated. We visited all the shops and i've distributed some soveniors (Singapore coins) to some of the vendors which i always patronize them. The hot plate, fruit stall and the little shops along the road. Eyes of the vendors were red and teary. Is just very hard to bid farewell. Sad moment...
After that i headed to Dong 3 to find Cherish, my very first friend in China, we had a great talked and she was very nice to give me a rose ring that she hand-made herself. Parting is always the saddiest part...

Reflection- I am going to miss my locals friends, vendors, foods and the affortable shopping ...

We're leaving in less then 12 hours :(

Day 40 in Wuhan

Today, Group E woke up as early as 7am to do our video. It is definitely worth to sacrifice my sleep for this video as the outcome turn out very well! Catch our video soon during the first week of school :D
After which, many of us headed to ShouYi Garden, the place where all the best food are. It is a must to visit there before we leave Wuhan. We ate the soup dumplings, seafood shells, porridge and ice blended. I just can't stop eating!
After lunch, we then headed to the shopping streets at that area and had our last shopping spree. It is quite a great place to shop, however the items were a little overpriced. After 3 hours or so, we then decided to head back to WUST as there was a farewell dinner in school.
We decided to take the mian bao bus as it is cheaper, but guess what! The driver actually sent us to the wrong campus. & the worst part was that the bus doesn't seems to have suspension. The journey was so jerky that i could not even take a nap!
More then a hour later, we finally reached the campus. We immediately rushed to drop our shopping goods and rushed to the restaurant as time were running out for us.
Dinner at the hotel right beside our hostel, and the food was not appetizing at all, and what made it worst was the bus ride i had previously. I'm feeling no good at all :( Praying that i do not fall sick at this time. About 1 more day before i leave Wuhan :(

Reflection- China is just like Singapore, a food paradize. I am going to miss the food!

Day 39 in Wuhan

Today, we had our final presentation for BPE. This also means that it is going to be the last time we're going to be in the class, last time we are going to the foreign school, last day we are going to climb 135 steps, the last day we are going to turn left side once we step up of the dormitory... Out of sudden, i miss the place :(
This presentation was so much different as we would have to present in Flexim form. I felt that i was not fully prepared for this presentation :( But yea, no point crying over spilt milk, but at least i know at that time, i've tried my best...
I'm so going to miss school of foreign studies!

Reflection- Everyone were elated that our module has come to an end, but at the same time, we felt a little sad to leave the place so soon. Everyone just had the mixed feeling. I will miss the place definitely...
