The Lecturer name was MR. Chan. Although the slide and presentation was boring, Mr.Chan gave us a interesting Geography to Shopping Paradise ;)
The 2nd nearest Shopping Center was 8 bus stop away.
Yes we finally got to taste the public transport of China. It was totally a incredible expereince. We actually stood on the double decker bus!! Awesome..
It seem bigger than Singapore though.
We reach a huge shopping complex. Similar to bugis street just that it is 10x time bigger and grand.

Day 3.... People






Yi..... Er......Yi ...Er... at 8 am in the morning. That was the sound of the Fresh-man marching down the road. The students were wearing camo shirt and a track pants. While the drill instructor worn the clean white uniform. The amount of student marching in groups filled the School field. There were about 6 thousand student and they are fresh man alone. That make up a big company. Enough to send 1 human wave attack to any position. I wonders other than Wuhan, how many other school that have this huge number of students.

We finally got the chance to study in our classroom for the first time. Nothing fanciful about it. However, compare other classroom, this I could say is the best class room. It have an air-con, 3 ceiling fans, many vanish painted tables and a visualizer. Oh I forget, it is a CHALK Board!! Awesome. It has been long since I last seen one. Yeah guess what? Class was boring even though it is the first lesson.

Class end with an epic loud Ring from the school bell. Yi heng and I head out to Walmart to get the inductor Cooker. Bought it at the price of $199 yaun which is about S$40 Sing dollar. I went to look out for my tripod but unfortunately, they did not have stock in store.

Brought back and cook it with our left over beef can. Taste awesome, also we did some good deeds. We bought CHIKEN rice for one of our fellow classmate Kyra. For the past 2 days she have been complaining about food and nutrition.

In the Afternoon, we have the student interaction. It was pure fun and laughter. I can't really say much but we really enjoy as there was perform from both China Student and our Singapore student.

Done. GO HOME>> SLEEP.. WAIT I FOR GET ABOUT THE PART WHERE PPL PLAY DOTA AND GET DRUNK OVER.... Absolutely Joke that was make from Justin.

The Exciting Wuhan .... Day 2 :X

Lights...Lights..... Why you so Bright!!!! It is bloody 6.15am. What a great way to start my day. Wuhan have a weird sun rise. It was 6 and the sun is already half way up the sky. Open my room door ;D Why Am I the only one who is awake T.T. My dear room mate is still battling the haze and he is having a hard time adjusting to the environment. So I decide to let him take the extra nap, since the reporting time is 9 in the morning. I went up to change into P.T gear ( personal training gear : Running Shoe, Medi Kit, Bottle of water, Sunglasses and air mask). So it is time to Explore this unknown palace of Wuhan. Took a slow jog around the campus, meanwhile scan for exciting places as well. The campus consist of a Hill, a clock tower, 2 tennis court, a track + soccer field and many many Basketball courts. The beautiful hill gave me an magnificent bird eye view of the whole entire campus. As I jog along the path, there were chipping sound of many different wildlife. I caught up with some native birds and insects. The jogging path is not muddy nor sandy at all. It is so different from what we all use to think China would be ( old and poor) but the development have come a long way. It is cemented. Yes cemented, the whole entire path that surround this gorges hill. The Air on the air is pleasant. Clean, I would say. I had a hard time sprinting and do my conditioning on the hill as the altitude change affect my air capacity while wearing a air filter mask. Green plants surround the hill and there was a small pond. My definition of small is as big as a car-park in Singapore. I notice there were many connected trail that lead deeper into the pond area and plenty of cover grass made by man. I presume Chinese student does have a good taste for a romantic night out.

 The air was getting a little thinner than I expect so I took a U-turn, I was still in the adjustment period so intense run in thin air would cause vital damage to nerve system. Not far away from the Hill, there is a Clock tower. Tall and stand out amazingly. The tower body is made of bricks and have been spray with orange coat while the hood is painted with bright red. It look just like in any old movie. The view is stunning from bottom, however, I have to climb the flight of stairs.. YES Stairs. God damn it those stairs almost kill. Hahaha. I am just joking. It took me less than 1.40 mins to conquer those stairs. As I reach the top, I could see bits and pieces of Wuhan City. There were lots of hons and movement down in the Poly at these time. Phones shop are being set up everywhere and there were loud chanting to promote their best deal. While breeze walking back to the hostel, I counted there were 5 other rows it row make up of 4 other hostel block. Gosh, I wonder how many student live in this Poly.

By the time I reach back to my apartment, my sick roommate welcome me with a running nose. Hahaha, he look so pink together with a tomato nose, the equation is Cute. Shower and replenish my body water, we took off towards the meeting area. Mr. Hamdan is waiting for us, everyone was looking energetic. He took us to our first eating area and that shall be the main base for all MUSLIM student. Food was practically pleasant I guess. Don't worry there will be a picture.

After breakfast, we took off and head toward the mobile shop,  short walk from our living area. The telephone shop is facing the field and there were sign board and flyer surround the area. Intense confusion and quarrel again as the group could not decide on a specific plan. Took us 2 hr to settle.Like most Singaporean or a person who live in a tech-savvy enviroment, we can never live without a phone and internet. Most importantly social networks. That is what run through everyone. Communication have taken to a whole new level. 

Our Chinese counterpart, lead us to our first Shopping Center. WALMART ..... Surprise just keep on coming. A 5 mins walk from the side gate of WUHAN POLYTECHNIC CAMPUS. On our way, we mange to get some wild flying shots and experience for the first time the intense heat at noon. Warm, very warm and traffic was pretty much similar to Vietnam. What I noticed clearly is that, the motorcyclist in China is using electric power instead of powered motor run on fuel. Must fuel consumption vehicles are cars and buses. The ordinary Chinese people used electric bike. This conclude my thinking to that it is not the people who consume large amount of fuel cells. It is more the factory and they are the one who gave large amount of pollutants in the air.

There were a few others thing I pick up as well. At every traffic light or a junction, there were a tan shelter.



















Inside Walmart:
4 story high and it is pretty much much similar to Vietnam shopping center. The place is extremely clean. Smoking is allow in the shopping center !! Boooya.. Hahah. Yi Heng ( another friend of mine) found a electric cooker which price about S$40. It is Damn bloody cheap I guess. While he did that I wen around and look for sporting equipment. Guess what? the weight belt is 3 times cheap. China nv fail to deliver cheap stuff. LOL

Lots of shopping, we settle our lunch at KFC. Head back to our place and took naps. YAWNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!

The Adventure to Wuhan China......^.^ DAY 1

The saying Goodbye.
Leaving Singapore for the first time to travel to China. A country with little promise and little favor from the local Singapore. Many people dislike the mainland Chinese due to their habits and behavior. So I decide to join the school and take up a month to study in Wuhan Polytechnic , China. In hope to find the reason for their notorious act. Saying good bye to my parents was easy as I having been living alone before. I have little emotional attach to them however, my dad did come down and say good bye before he took off to Vietnam for Business. Little excitement rush through my body. Am I emotionless? I did not feel the smile or the frown of worryness in my vein. It is just too natural. Simple numb. It felt as if I have been in flying many time and the thrill is no more there. It simple a flip of a coin. As the plane Touch down on Wuhan International Airport, it seem familiar. The building and the architect of a Communist country. Looking out of the Windshield, the plane move across a huge airport. Simply big enough to hold up to 50 planes. The parking pot seem to be empty. However, our plane did not end it destination by engaging into one of the pot, it stopped at the corner of this huge Airport. We unleashed our seat belt and carried our hand bag down toward the flight of stairs. There we board this long bus to deliver it human to the small airport.






 At the Wuhan International Airport: The Security was pretty ease, many formal stand from the guard as they maintain their attention position. The immigration officer was fairly alright and not much to talk there.
Highway: We board the Accommodation bus which was planned by the Wuhan Poly teachers, not such a big bus but it is alright to fit the 20 of us. The highway was plainly new as the road does not look tear down. Many complex traffic system and highway. Also, many uncompleted highway connected to one another. It took us 2 hr to reach our destination...
" Warmly Welcome teachers and students from Ngee Ann Polytechnic" a long red sign made of cloths just for us. Yes warm enough but we all are tired and hungry from the change in altitude, what make it worst is the Sun was no where to be seen. Silver grey sky and we could barely see anything down on earth.
The Room: O.o It is more than what we expect it to be. It have a 2 room , a living room, a kitchen , a toilet and of course 3 beds. How awesome can it be. It would be just alright for me. I am not sure about the rest but it is perfect.
Settling down for rooms: There was a huge confusion and the condition ( metal stage) for Krya was bad. She was been putting on alot of Stress. Due to setting up which group get which rooms. There were another confusion as the number of rooms did not meet the quarter. 
Internet connection-----> Big problem here in China, everyone is going crazy about it as they could not use their social network. Gina was came down and invade us as my room is the first room to set up the internet.

I was too tired So knock out...., Sleep head ;)
