Our trip back to Singapore. Everyone was busy packing their stuffs the night before, trying to stuff their china purchases into the suitcases! Including me. So early in the morning, we have to take our luggage for weighing and also to empty the rooms. Seeing the room, so bare. Reminds me of when we first came to wuhan. Everything feels so weird and unfamiliar. But within those 6 weeks, it became a home and sanctuary for all of us, filled with joy and laughter. I will miss room 117.
The china students, they came early to help us out. To help carry luggage, and to send us off to the airport. Some were already crying before we head for the airport. During the 6 weeks, i can say they have been really taking care of us, bringing us around and i guess, we have formed a special bond. I'll miss them, guy, yellow, fire and the rest.
J02 with our new found friend =)
I'll miss this path.

Day 38 of embracing china
Today's presentation was at 9.30am! This time round, room 117 really worked hard for it. As in, we had constructive discussions and even went to Mr wong for help! But the flexism was really hard to do, we started out three days in advance rather than our usual last minute routine. It was the last presentation in china!
We full of energy yo! hahahahha

Day 36 of embracing China
Today, was us waking up at 7am to go over to the ece's side for leadership/teambuilding day. It was also a first to visit their campus. The ride was about an hour long. As usual, everyone fell asleep in the bus! We started off having this bonding game whereby, we have to form newspapers into a "belt" and everyone have to go into it and move together with it. It's quite an interesting game i think, considering that i've never come across this in singapore.
We are Teamers!

Next up is lunch! They have this whole row of resturants just outside the campus that sells fishballs. I think, the ece people eats fishballs for breakfast, lunch and dinner? haha. Anyways, we had fishballs for lunch. It's very smooth and soft, almost like tofu. It doesn't have the bouncy feeling that singapore fishballs have. And, i liked it!
After lunch, we continued with the teambuilding games. There was this high element whereby you have to climb up, walk along a plank, jump to the next plank and then to jump down. The next is free fall. It was very scary for me i guess. Im not used to so many hands catching me! I rather, just fall to the ground ? haha. And last one was rock climbing.
Then, we went to tour the surroundings of the campus.

Day 34 and 35 of embracing china
Sunday - Lulin Resort
It was a 4 hours ride to the resort. The journey was a very bumpy one. Best ride ever. The bus driver is crazy. He likes to speed, overtake and honk at every moving object he sees. But i guess, its good? Since he speeds and it took us 4 hours. I can't imagine if he's a slow driver. We'll go crazy over the long journey.
Most of the dishes prepared are spicy. See the reds?
Our spacious bedroom.
