Wake up -> Lecture by China teacher -> Study!
And thats how I passed my 9th day in Wuhan! Lesson started at 9am today, at a new block at the 4th floor, with no lift, and a china teacher teaching us in english. How bad can it get? Well, a lot worst! First off, the classroom didn't have a heater, so I was basically shivering shivering throughout the 3 hours in the classroom! Secondly, the chairs are all spoilt and slanted forward! Meaning everytime I sit on it, I'm actually sliding forward bit by bit! Thirdly, the teacher teach by reading from the slides, which is on the screen, making the lecture super boring! Lastly, there are tons of breaks which can actually be avoided! I mean like, we don't need a 20 minutes break with just 40 minutes into the lesson, and than another 10 minutes break every half an hour to 40 minutes. But we did learn some interesting and valuable things from her lesson! Like where we can go to hunt for xiao long bao, and where the real "orchard road" with all the big brands like LV, Gucci are! We also learnt about the economy, languages, parts of China and the business processes in China too! Including some table manners and eating manners, like how we can't be the first to reach for a dinner if someone invited us. That pretty much explained why China people are ALWAYS LATE!
Went out to the backstreet after class to grab some bites! Walked the entire street, said hello to the usual store owners that we bought from. Heck we don't even need to say anything! The moment they hear Sheila's voice, everyone will look up and say hi to us! Went to buy the fried rice, and the fried rice uncle remembered us too! Oh my tiannnn. I think by the time we go back, the whole street will recognize us and we have to say hi each time we pass by!! Ordered the Lao Gan Ma Huo Tui Ji Dan Chao Fan again! basically its a fried rice with the sauce "Lao Gan Ma" and with ham and egg! Quite cheap though! RMB$5.5 for 1 big bowl!! Can eat till super full one!!
Went back to dorm and eat after that. Had fun eating and chatting with the rest at the corridor! Especially the gossiping part! Went back to our rooms for a bit, studied, rest, roll around, slack, listened to songs until it was time for picking our dance partner for the performance night! My partner is Priya! The two first-aiders dancing together! Went for dinner after that! Ate the same thing again. Don't think I'll ever get tired of it though! Went back and studied a bit more after that. Hope I am able to pass the test tomorrow!!
Shall update till here for today! tata~~
