Wake up -> Rush to lecture whilst eating breakfast -> attend lecture -> lunch -> more lecture -> free and easy -> FOOD FOOD FOOD!!!!
Meeting time was supposed to be at 9.30am at classroom, but, as per usual, me being me just took my own sweet time and end up having to run to our class while eating our breakfast. Ended up in class early though!! Manage to finish chapter 1 to 3 within the 2 lecture session on that day! The lectures were quite okay though, as most of the things have been taught in QLA before. So managed to survive the lectures!
The first lecture ended at around 12pm so we went out to have our lunch at a tsz char stall! The food pics are still with Aloysius and I have not managed to grab them from him yet so I'll be uploading them tomorrow! We ordered 5 dishes and 1 soup and 2 tubs of rice! Yes the rice comes in tubs and we have to scoop and serves ourselves, the utensils provided were all disposable (talk about being environmentally friendly). The meal was quite nice though, despite the request of less oil, less salt, less chilli, the food still turned out to be damn oily, salty and spicy! Went to buy the popiah again (we actually went there on the 2nd day but I forgot to post about it!) at the backstreet. The uncle at the store and the lady recognized us and we made new friends~ Which I reckon means more discount in the future (heh heh heh). Went back to finish the 2nd part of the lecture after that! Learned about the AOA and AON network, project management, EST, EFT, LST, LFT, total float and stuff, which are very similar to QLA, so I managed to get a hang of it quite fast.
The vege dumpling!
Mushroom with vege dumpling!
Too full and tired to walk about and eat anymore. But I still stayed up to around 3am+ in the morning to catch the announcement of the new iPad though! Seems quite nice for an update from the original iPad, so I'm gonna get it when I'm back in Singapore! Went to walk around somemore and found a store selling guo tie! bought like 12 for RMB $3~. Yes, its $0.60 SGD for 12 guo tie! Its a tad too oily though, thats the part I hate about all the food in China, they're either too oily, spicy or salty. Its hard to find a perfect blend of taste at any store! Ah well, shall update to here tonight! Will be posting up more photos tomorrow! So do stay tune for it!

After the 2nd part of the lecture, we went back to our dorm to rest and relax for a bit and got to interract with some of the china students! Learned how their lives are like in the university, what they do during their free time, where do they usually go to shop, how do they get through the winter season. Managed to pick up quite a few interesting tips though, like which stall serves the better noodles, which stall sells the best dumplings and such. Also got to know about the "orchard road" of wuhan, in which we had to take a cab or bus down in order to reach it. Went back out to the streets at night! This time hunting for dumplings and noodles, and we found it! Right at the first store where I bought the Gan La Mian~~ What really shocked me is the price! We ordered about 60 dumplings - yes, 60, 六寿、sixty, 六十 dumplings for RMB $25 which is shared among 4 person, which boils the cost down to around SGD $1 for 12 dumplings! Where to find!! Plus it was quite good too! Paired it with a Mala mian to go with at the shop. We ordered two types of dumplings though, one of it is the 韭菜dumpling and the other one is some meat with mushroom dumpling!~ Managed to become acquaintance with the boss too~ So might be able to get more discount the next round I'm there! heh heh heh~~ Went back to the dorm after that!
