Am I cold-blooded or something??

HELLO!!!!

My second post of my trip :)

You must be wondering why the title is as such right? This is because I walked out of my hostel with two top (tank top and thin long sleeve) and bottom (stocking and sweatpants) layers and ddn't feel cold for quite a long time. My friends were all asking me if I was crazy or cold-blooded.

DISCLAIMER: I AM NOT COLD BLOODED.

Let's continue! :)

How shall I describe my day today? One word: RELAX :)

We started off our day visitng the school of foreign languages which is situated right on top of a hill. It sure is good exercise every morning for all of us haha!

The environment around the school is actually quite nice. I can't say much about the building itself. But it's adequately furnished with the basic necessities and equipment for the students.

The vice-president of the university and the head of the school came to give us a speech and told us to enjoy our stay here. It is actually the sixth time NP has had this cultural exchange with Wuchang University of Technology. However, this is the first for LSCT.

A few of their students in the school who study or knew english brought us around the university, showing us the different canteens, supermarket etc. One particular building that all of us were super impressed and in excited about was the LIBRARY. IT WAS HUGE. And they put up a banner right at the entrance to welcome us! We got even more excited after that haha :)

We went all the way up to the top of the library. They built a mini garden which is really a nice place to read provided that the cold weather doesnt affect you so much. :P

Next, we went to a canteen where we had to put a minimum of 50 yuan into a card which acts like our kopitiam card in Singapore. And its LUNCHTIME!! But it's unfortunately not to my liking and so troublesome :(
Every single ingredient you have on your plate must be paid by the card and ONLY the card. There are alot of ingredients to choose from. However, I couldn't even see the ingredients because the Chinese students are rushing here and there, squeezing through spaces to get their food. After all that drama and I get to my seat with rice and two ingredients, almost half of my appetite is gone. I try the food, I totally lost my appetite. I guess I 'm still not used to the food here especially the way they handle the meats. And I don't think I can adapt to the smell and taste with time.

Singapore food and China food sure is different. I MISS SINGAPORE FOOD. I MISS MY MUM'S COOKING. huhu ><

It was more of a "Own Time Own Target" kind of arrangment today before we start our hectic lessons tomorrow. Therefore, I came back to the hostel and lazed around till 5pm before I went out to walk around the small neighbourhood and get my dinner. Dinner was korean beef bibimbap with too much seasoning :/ In the end, we bought bread and I just ate one hehe :P IT WAS AWESOME. Shan hui and I will be going back to that particular bakery to buy more bread :)

Well! That's basically what I did for the whole of today. Tomorrow is Forensic Science class day 1. Hope everything runs smoothly tomorrow! I will update tomorrow night most probably around the same time so do keep a look out for it! Goodnight and rest well!!! :)
