Day30- Assignment 2 Presentation

In the morning is our last IS lesson where we learn more about Taoism and Buddism. After which we went back to our hostel for our ppt slides preparation.

2pm.. start of assignment 2 presentation! this time we are not the first few but the last few. When its our turn to present suddenly i cant open the ppt file in my thumbdrive. Got a little panic and start finding solutions. Borrowed a thumbdrive from Shun Qing which apparently worked! YAY.

Our BPE project grp - RooM314/5

Presenting to you the Value analysis.

Reflection:

In the process of doing a project in a team, I realise communication and taking initiative is very important. If there is no one to take initiative, the task might take longer than needed to accomplish. When it comes to work and play, work of course comes in first. As there are alot of distrations when we are studying overseas, we need to help one another out by reminding ourselves the work that is there waiting for us to finish. There is one last assignment to be presented next friday. We will be taking a few days break before we start on very last BPE assignment of this trip. Grand ocean and Zuo1 dao1 quan2 (introduced by a local friend) for some shoppings!

Day 29- Interaction Night & Gloria's Birthday

Electricity Supply Cut off again in the morning! We're all rushing our BPE Assignment 2 powerpoint slides which we are suppose to present tomorrow.

So without electricity, our laptops cant work for long, we decide to head out for lunch.

After which we have lesson @ 2pm. We had our quiz asap as our laptop battery cant last too long. After the quiz Mr loh decide to let us go off ealier as we are studying in a dark room. As we are suppose to step out of the door, the electricity came back. What a nice timing. But we're still let off to go back and rush our ppt slides.

We did our quiz in the class with no lights

The bakery shop where we buy our MAGNUM icecream and CORNs!

In the evening around 8pm, we were all brought to the Club building for our Interaction Night. We had games and performance by Np students and the local students. It was an enjoyable night prepared by the local students

We went to this building where by there are many facilities like billard room and gym for an Interaction night with the local students

The food on each table. Love the nuts

At the place where we had the activies. Spot me with my corn!

the hosts of the night started choosing numbers to go on stage for some interesting games

Balloon Madness!

Water passing game

The team who failed the challenge will have to recite a Tongue Twister within 10secs

After which is a performance by ROY our MDE dancer!


Then our MDE singer! EDY!

MDE with WUST students -----------------------------------------------

29-09 is Gloria's Birthday, but we decide not to celebrate at 12am or in the afternoon. We decide to celebrate it at night, 2 hours before her Birthday passes. Again we had our "bonding session*" at the corridor again.

She thought we have all forgotten about her birthday. Until... 10pm

SURPRISE!

Birthday Girl

Super unglam photos. I guess I am really stress over the presentation next day. HAHAHAHAHA

=DD

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GLORIA!

Reflection:

It is actually very nice of the local students here in WUST to make the effort and plan such a fun night for all of us. Although it is not a perfect one but definetly it has brought much laughter to all the 80 of us studying in a foreign country. Theres a saying : "在家靠父母，出门靠朋友" When you go overseas, without family there will be friends whereby they can give us a helping hand when needed. Its better than when you are all alone where theres nobody there when you need help or a pair of listening ears.

Day28- Industrial Visit

BPE lesson in the morning Chapter 8 and quizWe had assignments to complete!! But we had industrial visit at Pharmaceutical industry very near to school. It actually has something which we could relate to our course which is their warehouse. But due to their regulations, we are not allow to explore the place. So we were brought around the place, mostly looking at the Chemicals containers around the perimeter of their plant. The visit ended very quickly and we're back in our hostel in an hours time. Warning signsno photos! With the guide and Spot me with my corn! My daily diet
Back in school with Mr Loh and Alvin _________________________

Another Fav snacks for many of us. 冰糖葫蘆-Tomato flavourthey have mixed fruits, orange, tomato and original (Shan1 Zha2)A MUST TRY! GONNA MISS IT when i'm back in Spore

Reflection:

Today's Industrial visit showed us how some companies protect their properties. Unlike the previous Coca Cola visit, they welcome visitors to their compound and share what brings them to their current success. Oh well.. I guess there are some highly confidential things which are not suppose to be leaked.

2 more weeks to the day we are HEADING HOME!!! We've all been together for 4 weeks, new friends made and new things learnt! :)

Day27- 武当山Day 2

We woke up at 6am, had our breakfast and started our hiking!

武当山In the morning around 7+ am, the weather is freezing cold. So we had all our windbreakers onStarting point which is near our HotelWe started off in a big group


Up up up we go~ As we go, we started to get warmer so we took off our windbreakers.

Slowly we dispersed, as everyone started to feel something on their calves! Some rested, slowed down, some Chiong all the way upTheres about 6500 steps up to the peak @.@


Finally we saw the peak! can u see the small triangle on top of the mountain?


Climbed and climbed.. good training for our leg muscles

Thats Daniel and Shun Qing.Look at the highest point in this picture. Thats our destination for today after 2 hours of hiking!We had to wait for everyone to reach before we go up to the peak.

We sweated alot. Thats the print stamped by our jerseys

Our resting point is also the point where we meet those who came up by cable cars.Some staff over there were shocked that we climbed up instead of taking the cable cars. I guess most people would not have the strength to climb all the way up.


When everyone arrived, we leave for the Summit






The view from the top makes my leg goes jelly~

Grp 1 without shunqing at the submit of WuDang mountainAfter which we went down the mountain by cable cars..

Two person to one. Me and Shun Qing



We reached a point where by the cable car starts going downwards and not forward.

The cable car here wont slow down for you to alight so they will grab your arm and pull you out. HAHA


Look at that! The two lines down the mountain is the cable cars


All tired from the hiking...

Conquerors of 武当山 all by foot

Wow... Since the 1st day we are here, we've been seeing all these signs with weird wordings.

Our Lunch... and we set off for a 7 hours journey back to school.

Reflection:

This is an good experience- climbing up the 武当mountain. So feel like giving up halfway as it is really tiring, my calves are aching. However all of us persevered and encouraged one another. If we didnt came as a group i guess i would have given up halfway or take half a day to climb up. This is a challenge for all of us, in the future there will sure be more to overcome. Life is never meant to be easy.

Challenges are what make life interesting; overcoming them is what makes life meaningful.

Day26-武当 Day 1

This time we woke up at 5am to prepare for the 2Day1Night WuDang Trip

As theres a blackout in the WHOLE school ard 3am, hence the plan of not sleeping to rush assignment 2 is cancelled. So 2 hours of sleep and 6 hours on the bus. Neck ached again, after so many weekends trip, everyone has discovered my special ways of sleeping on the bus. HAHA

We had lunch, good food again. Yummy
after which we went off to take their shuttle bus to our destination with our big baggages

It rained...

The Prince Temple

We got to put our bags here at the bustop before we can go and climb the stairs up to the temple
