Day 8 in Wuhan
Today's lesson was in the afternoon and this gave me a reason why i slept late the previous night. Morning was suppose to be my first IS Lesson from the local lecturer, however the lecturer fell sick, therefore lesson was cancelled.
The weather have changed drastically. When i woke up this morning, as i opened the door, i felt the strong breeze of cool air came blowing against my face. Yes, FINALLY SOME COOL AIR! Temperature was about 25degree. Not too cold and not to warm. SWEET! I can't believe that the temperature can drop as much as 10 degree in less than 24 hours. It just so unpredictable.
Great weather + Great exercise = Great Day? YES FOR ME!
Since weather was great, we decided to have physical training again. Instead of running around the campus, we chose a different route and ran around the track. Who say people can't keep fit even they're on immersion program? Right! :D
After PT, we headed out of campus for dinner. We had "Wantons", Chinese dumpling with fillings. There's wide variety of wantons as compared to Singapore. Usually there's only pork meat, however over here, they have more then 16 Flavours. I tried the prawn flavour and it was tasty and fresh. I want more flavours in Singapore too!!!
Gonna have a late night tonight....
Quote of the day- A good book is the best of friends, the same today and forever. -Martin farquhar Tupper
Reflection- Most people had that mentality thinking that people in China tend to be impolite and rude, which is so not true. This is what happen in the eatery. After a few customers left the eatery, the boss immediately came forward to take our orders at the counter, which reduce the waiting time. Once we were seated, he immediately cleared the table. We thanked him, and he said " bu ke qi" (Welcome) with the wide smile on his face. We then asked for more Vinegar as it was running out, he immediately took an extra bottle for us on top of the refilled bottle.
Though we're not from the local, they show no biased and treated us as part of them. I just felt the "homecoming" feeling. :)
