Day 43 - The Last Day



Got myself ready in the morning before setting off. I guess my luggage is one of the lightest one haha. Had to rush to Xiao Lu laundry service to collect my last pail of clothings and squeeze everything into luggage haha.


Look just how squeezy the bus is. Luckily we separated ourselves into two buses. One for MDE one for ECE division. Some of our luggage had to be brought up into the bus instead of putting it in the compartment below.


Finally at the wuhan airport. A lot of my peers' luggages exceed the weight limit and Mr Puah had to paid RMB 1.4K for us. Some of us chipped in at our own accord.

A memorable picture it is and it shall be the last "7788/5566" picture that I will be uploading. The 6 logisticians - 5566/7788!!!


A 3 by 3 seats in the southern airline and this are the two sitting beside me haha. A beauty and a charming "korean" haha.

Anyway at the Guang Zhou airport, there was a miscommunication and we had to move here and there to re-check in again. This just shown me how disorganized and inefficiently other airports are as compared to the worldly recognised CHANGI airport! Haha. I'm proud to be a singaporean haha

This time round we checked in individually and my luggage weighed 20.8kg. Just nice, didn't exceed the limit. Anyway due to the miscommunication, we almost couldn't catch up in time for our international flight. Thank God everyone managed to go onboard.




The last of the "Adam's family" HAHA!!! We took this picture and rushed immediately to purchase alcoholic stuffs and went off separately with our own family.

Thanks to Julian and family who drove me back home safely and comfortably :)

Everythings that happened, the things I learnt, the friends I made, everthing in this whole OIP, it shall be kept deeply in my heart. Three cheers to our friendships my dearest friends :)

Day 42

Early in the morning, we woke up to stand by for our graduation ceremony and Mr Puah informed us that it was cancelled as no one was there.

Since some of us are already changed, we took a picture before going to MacDonald for breakfast haha.



Later on, Andy and Elaine came to find Julian and I and we went straight to Han Zhen Jie, the wholesale market. That's what happens when my fans see me, can't help it! Sigh HAHAHA!!! Just kidding :)

Anyway I bought a bag for my mum and a formal shirt for my dad. Finally solved my burden haha. We went back to WUST while droping elaine off at Bu xing jie.



We went to the night market in Bu Xing Jie in the night and four of us left earlier. We went as a big group of around 20 people including ECE peers haha. I bought a belt for myself, a grade A fake LV wallet for my dad haha. How fillial I am right? HAHA!!!


We called back Pan Shi Fu to drive us back to WUST at only RMB 40!!! Our final ride with him and so this picture is indeed memorable.


Upon reaching WUST, Andy, Julian and I went to Xiao Lu laundry service immediately to collect our clothes. My first picture taken with the nice and friendly lady boss :)



A picture with my "dear" friend here after a quick bath haha.


Rushed down with Andy for another round of laundry service which will be our last one and my last picture taken with her :(


We went to the "Co-op" to take our first and last picture with the friendly workers there. A fruitful and memorable day it is.

As I go on, I'll remember, for the time we had together....

Day 41

Have been waking up late this few days. Same goes for today. All of the logisticians went out except for Andy, samantha and I. Though we never leave the room except for samantha who went out for dinner, but I suppose it was indeed a fruitful day for Andy and I.

We spent the day trying to some of our projects. Something which I'm happy is that it was my first time cooking indoor. Though is just maggi mee but at least I took the first step.

Just when I realised it, it's the third last day for our OIP. Not only am I exposed to the outside world but I'm also more independent now. To be able to look after myself haha.

Day 40

The day I have been looking forward to have finally come! HAHA! Woke up today to find everybody still sleeping when we're supposed to meet. Seems like everyone are just too tired from the amount of assignments we have to do. As one big group of around 11 people, we went straight to " Fai Yuan Di". The hair stylists were shocked to see one big group of students entering their salon HAHA!


We're the first four to decide to dye/highlight our hair. This is our "Before Look" haha. I'm the only one who's dying while the other 3 are just highlighting their hair.




My dying process took me about half an hour only. I was told that my hair absorb the dye faster than the others. Well, my hair stylist is none other than the vice chairman haha.


This is the "After Look" of 4 of us haha. Cant really tell the different of me I guess. Hope I look better and handsome! HAHA!



This is the majority of us that already have our hair done nicely. There are still some who are still in the process of doing their hair. We spent almost the whole day in the salon as there were just too many customers including us. We had to wait for quite some time before each of us gets our turn. Nevertheless, I suppose everyone is satisfied with their hairs except for one or two hahaha.

Again! Mr puah cooked porridge for us for dinner! This time round, chicken porridge. It's delicious as always and I suppose this shall be the last time trying out Mr Puah's cooking skills haha.

Day 39


Woke up late today. Just when I'm half asleep, I found Li Xuan, the student volunteer outside my room. Seems like she's bringing some of us out for shopping. Since Andy invited me to go also, while they go to withdraw money, I took the time to get myself changed and went to meet them at the bus stop outside WUST front gate. We went to Bu Xing Jie to "Jalan Jalan" and went straight to her house for dinner.





Look just how BIG Li xuan's house is? Wonder if it's as big as an executive flat in singapore but yes, it's spacious enough to hold all 20 of us and her families and friends.

The house was so nicely designed that I can't help but imagine it to be my house haha.






That's Li Xuan's mum. Looks young isn't she? Her families members were really friendly and kind to treat us to fruits and snacks when we were waiting for the dinner to be ready. Family life here isn't as bad as I thought initially haha. It varies.


Look! Even the sofa was long enough to hold more than 10 of us. Rich family indeed haha.



This's Li Xuan's bedroom. Neat and clean I can say. Haha!





That's her bed. Queen-sized! Same as mine in Singapore haha. Sure makes me misses my own comfortable bed in Singapore haha.



Look closely at me! Handsome? HAHA. Just kidding but yes, I like this photo haha :)
There were two tables for us as there were too many of us to squeeze into one table. Everything was well prepared even before we came. This is the first table. More dishes coming right up.


Doesn't the foods make you hungry? HAHA! There are still more dishes being prepared when we were and I can say, china peoples' appetite are seriously huge. A total of 10 OVER dishes just for one meal. We're seriously blessed today. Haha. It's just like a family feast. Haha.





A toast before we started eating. This is the second table, more people but bigger table hahaha.




Check out this picture, my new girlfriend in China. HAHA. Just KIDDING!!! Nice picture right? Haha. Well we stayed for like an hour after dinner and left her house around 10 plus. Though tired but it was indeed life today. At least I'm exposed to family lifes in China now.

Day 38

Woke up late today haha. Except for Steffi and I, my other 3 group members all went out for shopping. To think that we have to do our project late in the night again, ARH! Tired!



Wanted to stay in the room to rest and do my work but Julian insisted that I accompany him for dying of his hair so I got no choice. That's him before the hair cut and dye.



It was tiring and bored waiting for him for an hour plus with just my "psp" to entertain me. Couldn't stop but keep dozing off while waiting for him, my "psp" is just not enough to keep me awake.





That's Julian, after his hair cut and dying of hair, his hair stylist and me. Look so much better and HANDSOME isn't HIM? Haha. Though it cost slightly expensive, RMB168 but I guess it's worthy. Friday! My turn to come haha.





After the hair cut, I went over to a shop opposite the salon to look for a jacket for my brother. Aren't I SWEET??? Haha. Can't help it. Haha. I bought my Adidas jacket here also.



I had the "brand new look" boy to help me try out the jacket I want to buy haha. Nike! Nice isn't it? New stocks just arrived today. Lucky hahaha.

Day 37

Woke up at 10.30am today and immediately had my team meeting after i brushed. We didn't have our breakfast until 1pm plus when Chin Xiang and the others went to buy lunch for us. Thanks alot people! We stayed in the room the whole day until 5pm when we went down to exercise.



Our dinner host tonight - Fiza & Amirah!!! Both of them treated us to dinner to celebrate the last day of Hari Raya :)




Fried noodle, egg & beef fried rice, mutton satay, some side dishes and a few bottles of drinks. Just like a big feast after our hard work haha!


Our dear friend here had to carry the sleeping beauty out to have the delicious dinner as she was just too tired to wake up and eat? Haha.

A close-up view of our foods. How does it looks to you? Haha. Looks good? Haha. Frankly speaking, the dinner was really nice. Haha. Once again, thank you fiza and amirah :)

Back to team meeting again after dinner. We have to try to rush and finish our video by tomorrow hopefully.

Day 36


Celebrated Adeline's birthday EARLY in the morning at 12am. HAHA! Can see that she's happy and I'm touched haha. Celebrating each other birthday together. Such warm feelings. Was supposed to have a good sleep after the celebration but was woke up by Mr Puah saying that the WUST logistic students wanted to pay us a visit.

When all of us are ready to go, we were told that one representative to meet them will do and we can stay in our room, I was kind of irritated. The students should have make themselves clear.

Since we're already awake, a group of us went out for breakfast and went shopping neaby WUST. Bought a Adidas jacket which looks really cool. Finally bought my jacket!

After we're back in our rooms, I stayed in the room to rest until evenings when Julian, samanatha, karen and I went to the Halal store at the back alley for dinner.


6th NE Message: We have confidence in our future.

After being through so much for the past 1 month plus, I realised Singapore is so much better, lesser pollutions, much civilized and many more. Furthermore, since we're a small country, each and everyone is given a chance to excel in their own area of specialities. Unlike China where there's such a huge population, not everyone is given a chance.

Being United, determined and well-prepared, we have what it takes to build a bright future for ourselves, and to progress together as one nation. Bright future awaits us.
Day 35

Time for church service again! Woke up at 6.45am to prepare myself. It was indeed tired.
My first time entering a Catholic church main hall and attending its service. This is the main entrance to the main hall. An unique experience indeed. Even though there's a Catholic church beside my previous flat but i never stepped in to experience their service myself.
A picture taken after the service at 9.30am. A small foutain in the church where they say their prayers, i suppose? Except for benjamin who's not in the picture as he took this picture for us, we went to the church as a group of 5.

We walked from the church to Bu Xing Jie and we were almost froze to death haha. The weather was so cold that even two layers of clothing isn't even enough for us. We went to KFC to have something light and continue strolling down the streets after Mr Puah left us. Guess what? We found a Haagen-Dazs shop here in Bu Xing Jie! Haha. We were so excited that we sat in and Julian and Benjamin ordered two plates of Ice creams.
This was what Julian ordered. Nicely decorated dish isn't it? Haha
This was what Benjamin ordered haha. Though it may not look as appealing but it tastes just as good as what Julian ordered. Each has its own uniqueness.
As you can see from the picture, we're the only customers in the entire shop. I guess maybe the stuffs here are just too expensive to consume.
We took a cab immediately, after enjoying our food at Haagen-Dazs, to the rows of shops opposite mei shi jie.
After a few kilometers of trekking and viewing of musical stores around the mei shi jie area, we finally reached our destination. The music institute!!! I bought my "Suzuki cello book" at approximately S$6 which costs S$18 in Singapore. Great deal indeed haha!!!
Though tired but since all felt like going to the wholesales place at Han Zhen Jie, we took a cab and went there.

It was a seriously big place and there were alots of stuffs to see. Just look at the whole rows of shops selling clothings here. This is just one small part of the Han Zhen Jie.


Another part of Han Zhen Jie, looks cleaner and nicely decorated right? Haha. Though we never really buy anything but yes, we finally came to this wholesales place and see what it is like. After this, we went straight back to Bu Xing Jie again to have our dinner and continue looking for more better deals. Haha. Later in the night, while the others are still shopping, Clarissa, Benjamin and I went back first. I think this whole day, I spent more on transportation than clothings and foods.

Day 33 & 34

Had our IS presentation yesterday and sadly, Xiao Ling lao shi was not able to make it. It seems like we're one of the minority group in MDE to dress up formally for the presentation haha. The photographer forgotten to take the empty video tape which made our presentation delayed to 9.40am!!! The presentation stretched all the way to 2pm and was still left with 2 groups which have not presented yet.

There is a class at 2pm so we ought to leave the lecture hall and not very sure about the ECE division but MDE went to teaching block where we usually have our lecture and continue with the last presentation.



Went out for shopping with a group of my peers till dinner. Mr Puah TREATING us to dinner today!!! :)



We separated ourselves into 2 tables and check out the dishes!!! Feel like tasting it? Come to Wuhan! Haha!



Visited one of the tourism attraction place again this morning. A total of three places and all three are located at DONG HU. This is the first place - Wuhan Botanical Garden!!!



Check out the flowers in Wuhan, aren't there just as beautiful? It's an unique experience indeed.




Cactus is one of the most common plant you would find in the botanical garden. The cactus ranges from one that is as minute as your palm to one that is as tall as a lamp post. This trip had seriously made me 大开眼界!!!




A pond inside the botanical garden. Not sure if there are any big fishes but there are frogs inside the pond haha!



Took a picture with my two cute friends before leaving this place.



Second part of our visits - Moshan Hill. We're about to ascend to the "Fortress" as shown in the background of this picture above :)

Finally!!! At the top of the "Fortress". Nice scenery can be seen from this place.


Cool Sculpture isn't it? Every sculture that we had seen today has it's historially myth and legends.

Highlights of the day!!! We paid RMB 10 each to dress ourselves up in the chinese cosplay!!!
For your information, I'm dressed up as the prince of Tang dynasty. HAHA!


Can you see tower at the top of the mountain? 10 of us stayed back and had pinics and games with ourselves while some went up to the tower and some at some other places.


Last place of our visit today. Some of us stayed in the bus and rested as we're too shagged while majority went down the bus to the East Lake. After this, we returned back to WUST.
