i

Today morning lesson as usual. i was doing the last part for my lab 4. after that, there was nothing to do. Therefore, started watching movie and helped jeremy with his lab too.
The afternoon lesson was going through the tutorial 4 and having brief about the Mini Project. The mini project was kind of difficult. i somehow do not understand what the questions want, and how to do.
After lesson, went to play basketball for 2hours. then decided to go out eat. went to a nearby fast food restaurant and had a burger. the burger was not bad. went over to the opposite side and bought some BBQ stuffs. A little chit-chat with the seller.
Went to WuChang supermarket. Just outside, they are a lot of people dancing. i duno what's the purpose but a large group is dancing and their actions are the same. cool uh.. feel like dancing too, but duno how. when decided to take a picture of the large group, a kid who was jumping on the stage and dancing somehow come running in front of us also wanting to take picture.
after that, he went to drag his brother here and parent.

day 16
=====
Weekdays normal routine are the same. Having lessons.

Basically, C# is getting more difficult. More Understanding is require.
I think the lecturer should set some examples while going through the C#.
It will be more easier for us to understand, if not we just do our stuffs and hand up.
The Lecture note is different from the C prog.
for C prog, there is textbook which guide us from simple examples to more difficult examples.
day 15
=====
Today is exactly 2 weeks in Wuhan already. The climate is getting hotter and hotter. Soon or later, we will have to be sweating. And the clothes we brought will not be able to use unless we are able to get use to the heat.
Today had business etiquette presentation from the China lecturer. The lecturer is different from the lecturer we had last week. This lecturer’s English isn’t as good as the previous, but still able to understand it.
The presentation today was totally boring. The powerpoint slide were all words without having any pictures or videos to show. The speed he’s going was also very slow. From what he teaches, it seemed to him that we are like secondary school student. But even though is boring, the lecturer is good in terms of having it explain in details and giving examples to support.
After the IS, which the lecturers release us early, we were told to proceed to the computer area. I don’t know what the point of going there but the reason the lecturer gave was to compare the price of the computer here and the price of it in Sim Lim Square. But what’s the point of comparing? We ain’t in need of anything.
The shop loses at 6pm, all the entrance was closed and we need to go through the exit which looks like those emergency exit. After we came out, we saw these 4 puppies. Those were very cute small puppies. The China people are selling it quite cheap. If I did not hear wrongly is 160 RMP for it.
day 14
=====
Today had to wake up early in the morning for a trip. The time for us to board the bus was 7.15am. As for me, I set my alarm at 5.30am. When it rang, I had it snoozing till 5.40am. I off my alarm and had this thought that I would wake up automatically at 6. But, when the next time I woke up was 6.20am. Now I had to queue up for the toilet.
At first I thought that the bus journey from WUST to the factory was 1hour. But the 1h journey was to the WUST (main branch). From there, it was another 30 or 40 minutes of journey to the factory. On the way, we still have to wait for the train to pass through us, which took quite a long time.
Finally, the destination was just in front of us. All of us alighted, having the safety helm put on. Entering the factory, all of us could feel the heat just before entering. We went touring in just one way down for about 10 minutes. Everyone was seeing how the metal was being processed.
From what I think, I think this is basically wasting of our time. Firstly, everyone woke up so early just to board the bus at 7.15am and have a journey for around 1hour 40 minutes. The thing is our journey is longer than the time we stay inside. Secondly, when we enter the building to see the process. With no one explain to us, how do they expect us to know what’s going on? They think that we are genius? Once we see thing, we will understand what they are doing? If there is no explanation on it, what the purpose for us going there? This journey really had wasted a lot of things. Like time, energy, money. The money could use for something in more other meaningful things. Not waste on this bus trip.
Continuing our lesson at 3pm. Now that Mr. Ma is going through the powerpoint slides, it is better for everyone or rather me to understand easier.
From what I observed just now, I had some kind of curiosity about how the metal from a piece can be stretch till so long. Wanting to know how the things work, without having people explaining it would just make one heart feel uneasy. So the final product was used for what types of usage? I do not even know it.

day 13
======
href="file:///C:%5CUsers%5CSzhPeeps%5CAppData%5CLocal%5CTemp%5Cmsohtmlclip1%5C01%5Cclip_filelist.xml">Today was the thirteen day of me staying in Wuhan. Today, as usual was having lesson. However, the only thing different was that Mr. Ma was the lecturer for today.
The way Mr. Ma taught was totally different from how Mr. Chua taught. But I understand better from Mr. Chua teaching. The way Mr. Chua taught was using the slides from the powerpoint slide or rather from the lecture notes. It is easier for me to understand by seeing and following through. Mr. Ma’s way was he summarized the whole chapter and explained in his own way. This made me more difficult to understand. Now, I am trying to figuring out by trying out the exercise that was on the lecture note to help me understand better.

After the afternoon lesson which lasted for around 2hours. I went to canteen 3 to buy some DVD. I bought 4 different types of shows and the qualities were not bad either. 1 disc cost less than $1 in Singapore currency. But, I do not know whether it is possible for me to smuggle through back to Singapore.
In the evening, there was an interaction between us NP students and the students in Wuhan. There was singing and dancing. Everyone had fun and most of them were being high. Some groups were having exchange of performance to everyone. China people ain’t afraid of being shy. Quite a lot of them were talented and having confidence in themselves. Some were expert in dancing, singing, mimicking. I have enjoyed myself basically today.
