Thanks Mr Wong!!!

With us in Wuhan for 6 weeks and back to Singapore, He is the person that ensure our safety throughout the trip. Though he reprimanded us, we all know that he meant well for us. He cracks jokes along the trip and constantly telling us the trips we went after we came back. I believe that this trip was made a smooth one as there was a man behind the stage ensuring everything is alright and the man is Mr Wong CC. He made this trip a pleasant one that I will have a deep impression of this trip and our trip leader and not to forget he is my MENTOR for GRP A.

THANK YOU, MR WONG FOR EVERYTHING YOU HAD DONE FOR US FOR THIS OIP TRIP!!!

Just For Room 222

thanks Rand for taking photos for everyone throughout the trip!

6 weeks has past and we had been living under one roof in the same room. We had quarrels and most of the time we came to an conclusion and i feel our friendship bond get closer by the end of the trip. Thanks to both of you who taught me a lot of valuable things and stuff.

1. Clive

though we had quarrels, all still come to an end and we still get back as good friends throughout the trip. You always give me the last push for me to go for things that i do not dare to step forward and gave me confidence in myself that i can do it in many many things. Once again, THANKS CLIVE!!!! HAHA

2. Randolph

though most of the times we had different views and opinions on matters, we will still come up with an conclusion that both of us are satisfied with. As the weeks past by, from my point of view, i believe we know how to give and take so our friendship becomes better. You share alot of things with us and from you, i know how to better care for a person. Be Happy always!!

Thank both of you for your effortless care and concern throughout this trip! WE ARE ALWAYS ROOM 222, 3 Musketeers!!

3 Cheers for each one of us!!!

the weather depicts my mood then and cannot bear to leave wuhan

Rushed all the way from wuhan to GuangZhou then rush to our plane in GuangZhou as we are delayed in Wuhan by about 2 hours and we were late for our boarding time for about 15 mins.

Off we fly off from china.. BYE china.
In the flight, memories of wuhan start to play again in my mind.
tears was about to flow down.
I really MISS WUHAN ALOT!!!

SG, I AM BACK!!

Water here taste nice and sweet.. HAHA

final photo of the 3 musketeers in this WUHAN trip.

I have learnt many things from this trip and i believe it can be useful to me in my future and i will always remember that one of my holidays in Ngee Ann Poly was so meaningful and it was spent overseas!
Take care my OIP peeps and WUST friends!
and not to forget Mr Wong CC that came alogn with us.

Day 40 - Last day shopping

This is our second last day in Wuhan, but to all of us it is considered as last day of everything - shopping, playing, having fun, eating good food and interaction and communication. There might not be another chance to do these things again. Shopping in China has a shiok feeling and nice to bargain to the price we want!!

Went to Han Zheng Jie for the last time before heading back to Singapore tomorrow.
tops here are much cheaper here and some are nicer than Singapore's.
Nice and Cheap, why not buy more right??
I bought TWO pairs of shoes, 1 long sleeve shirt, 2 t-shirt, 5 pair of socks and a jersey.
Cool?? HAHA.. :D

then head back to school and went for massage on feet and the back of the body.
went because i want to know what is wrong with my body so when i get back to Singapore, i can do something about it. After that went to cut hair. The initial plan was to cut hair but the hairstylist recommend me to perm my hair so that the outcome will be nicer. But I did not know the whole process will be so long and after perming and cutting my hair. Sorry Mr Wong!!

Got back and pack up the rest of the things and try my best to squeeze all of my things into my luggage with Rand's bag in and Hajar's Hairdryer and wooden stuff. And i managed to zip my luggage and went out to weigh it and to my astonishment it was only 19.5kg.

I plan not to sleep the whole night just to think about things that happen throughout the 6 weeks and of course Singapore!!

see how my much things i have to squeeze inside my luggage and zip it up

Back in Singapore in less 24 hours time!!

Day 39 - Farewell/Appreciation party and Rocco's Birthday

Stayed in the room for the whole day while my roommates went back to Han Zheng Jie again.
I continue to pack up my area, bed and the upper area where i put my stuff. I just slacked the whole day in the room, looking at blog and listening to music.

Thinking of how time has past so fast and things that happened along the way, i start to miss alot of things here, in China. I am going to miss

1. times spent with Rand and live in room (RooM 222) doing stupid things and laughters throughout the room and singing session
2. food at the back alley
3. food at Ni Nan restaurant ( NEXT BATCH OF OIP STUDENTS, should go try it)
4. times spent with OIP peeps and local student
5. lifestyle in wuhan, being independent in many ways and tolerate one another as we stay under one same roof.
6. all things that happened
7. and alot alot more

Went to have dinner then go collect the cake for later's party. The cake was 3 cakes tall and was fruit toppings on it. Healthier choice! HAHA.. =D

then went to farewell party to appreciate WUST and their students for their past 6 weeks of good reception and being a good host. Preparing and planning things for us and even forking out their personal time and study time to help us in anything they can. So we arranged this party for them to thank them for their efforts and hosting. Without them, i believe this 6 weeks would not be a memorable and fun one for everyone of us.

I told them that when they come to Singapore next year, i will make their trip a enjoyable one and host them just like how they host us and even better.

THANK YOU ALL, WUST STUDENTS!!!! YOU ALL MADE AN DIFFERENCE IN MY STAY IN WUHAN!!

WILL NEVER FORGET MANY FRIENDSHIPS FORGED!!

Concidentally, it was Rocco's 20th birthday.
He was the first guy that i get to know first and he brought us around to many places!!
Hope you had an memorable 2oth birthday with all of us!!

Day 38 - BPE last presentation

today was the last presentation for the module, BPE.
so we decided to come in formal attire with tie on.
It went rather smooth for us and I presented better than the first 2.
After presentation, we took pictures in class with the rest as almost all of us were in smart attire. We are a rather fun group with many 'stunts' for taking photos together.

After we quickly head for Han Zheng Jie for our start of shopping days before we left for Singapore on Sunday. A group of 12 of us went together, i guess that was the only time that we go out together in such a big group. After walking through Han Zheng Jie, we went to Zhong Shan Da Dao to shop. I brought a converse shoe from the same shop again where i bought my nike shoe.

Shopping and shopping till 7plus in the night and we went to mac to settle for dinner as i guess it was the cheapest and easieat to eat in the city area. After eating, the rest went back while Winson, Hui Miang, Meng zhen and I continued to shop. I can tell you, Mengzhen is really a good shopper. She can shop the whole day without complaining her legs are tired. HAHA.. =D

Then head back for school and do some blogging for the past few days since I have not done it because of doing assignment 3.
I am also 70% done with my packing, left some clothes, shoes and food.
Hope I can squeeze all in!

Room 222

yea, its fun time from now on!

Double Deck bus...!!

finally get to board a double deck bus in wuhan. maybe funny to your but i just like the feeling of it. LOL. It is also cheaper than the single bus. Maybe due no air-con and only short distance.

Han Zheng Jie
which i bought a sugar cane to bite on and tear it and suck the juice out before spitting out the remains.

Day 37 - 'Hostel' Day

Stayed in hostel for the whole day and for meals, we did not even go till Jian Er road to eat. We eat at back street for all the meals on that day.

In the morning, went to class to take group photo with the rest of oip group. Because GROUP A dearest group leader is leaving for beijing in the afternoon.
Take care, Steph!!!
cya back in Spore..
:D

We worked on the simulation software for quite sometime and finally we got the answer we wanted in evening. In the afternoon, Randolph decided to make new spectacles as in China it is very cheap to make one.

Shall continued on with our assignment 3 presentation slides and report.
4 more days we will be back in Singapore!!

in process of packing

almost to the brink but have not open the extension for luggage space

NE message : 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. Just 4 more days, the journey for wuhan will come towards an end. How fast 6 weeks has past!! Going miss Wuhan alot and friends that i have made here. To all WUST students, work hard and all the best in your future! Hope to see most of your in Singapore next year! They really impacted me and I learned alot from them. They are hardworking in their studies and always very helpful to us during our stay here. Through this OIP trip and interaction with them, they taught me how to be more confident in my future and be Singapore's future generation of leaders and bring Singapore to higher level in the world. I really feel that this trip has increases my confidence in my future that I can do my part for my country.

Day 36 - Team Buidling & Character building

We went to WUST - Zhong Nan Campus for our activities today.
It was all about teamwork and character building.

This is where the ECE students stay in their 6 weeks in China. Their buildings are so much brighter in colour than our campus and their surroundings scenery are beautiful. But their major disadvantage is they are far away from the city area and takes about 45mins - 1 hour to reach the city area. So i still prefer our campus where it is still near to city area and back our dorm there is a food street and we can just go down and eat tasty food.

After reaching, we splitted into 4 groups with mde, lsct and ece students mixed up into different groups. i have learned a new way to divide a group of people into different groups. HAHA.
Our first assignment was to think of a name, group cheer and draw the group flag.
My group is called the SPONGEBOBES. why? because partly our flag we got yellow colour so we thought of spongebob and second reason was absorb the water which means like building up your character and teamwork.

next was a game that was just using newspaper to make a tank wheel. We need to travel an amount of distance like how the tank the move(with the newspaper over our head and going under our feet in rounds and rounds.after was lunch. Opposite the Zhong Nan campus, there are many restaurants that sells fishball. The street opposite the school is famous for fresh fishball. So we decided to go try out and we find the fishball was ok only but the soup is superb. But eating there is also not cheap. Still prefer Ni Nan restaurant which is just 10mins walk from school.

After lunch, we slacked awhile before we start the team building game (trust fall) and elements games. Lastly, we had rock climbing and i enjoyed it the most!

After that, we had a walk along the lake beside their school. The scenery is very good for taking nice photos. So for our group, we took individual shoots for our movie. For me, i play with the settings of my camera that is going to 2 years old (considered quite old for technology). I took sun setting photos. It is relaxing time by the lake, seeing the sun set.
