Yesterday, 7 march 09. we woke up early in the morning freezing in cold. We did not switch on the heater which is the aircon, as we do not know it is a heater. It can be switch to a temperture of 30°C

had our breakfast at the same canteen there in level one.they serve nice food, some are found in singapore too. Example would be tou jiang, you tiao, hum ji pang, porridge , hard boil egg and some other nice local food.

After the nice breakfast was a tour around the school, very big school which is located beside nan whu river. It have different school like school of arts, bussiness, information, life science and many more. after the tour was the lunch at the same canteen, foods were change from morning style to lunch type. i tried mushroom chicken fried rice which is the one out of 30 plus type of fried rice. it was very nice indeed and it just cost me 5 yuan! The portion of the rice was alot which allow me to fill my stomach. The drink i brought was coke, it cost me only 1.40yuan.

Lunch was great, we went back to our hostel and was told that we are going out to the shopping area to get the things we wanted, i was very happy to hear that as i love to explore places i never been. We are allow to travel out to school around 1330hr where we are to report at 1900 at the shopping area to the teachers to ensure that we safe to travel back again.We tag along as a team of 4 with another group travel out to our so call " town".

Once out of the school, i notice that the roads are place in placed different direction compare to singapore, their cars are left hand drive, and bus doors are located in the right hand side of the roads. To reached to our destination, we could take bus 901, 903. It took us 2yuan for the one way trip to "lu xiang guang chang" which is a shopping mall located at the central area.
The journey took us around 20min. And finally we reached, the place was a big round about which shopping mall are located around it. To describe it would be like Singapore newton circus with shopping mall around it. Of course the round about i mean in wuhan was about 10 times bigger.

The place is huge, road side foodstore are everywhere selling different kind of local dishes, snacks and fruits. There is shopping mall we went was nice and we found ou that it do not need any aircon, the shopping mall is open air!! I notice that china people do spit anywhere they could and smoke anywhere, which is dam dirty compare to singapore. But it their culture and we have to adapt to it rather then grumbling & complaining.

We went to from level to level of different shopping mall to shop of course! But found that things there are not cheap, brands like converse, adidas, nike, levis jeans are cost almost the same in singapore after conversion of the currency.

At about 1730, My team and another team felt tired from walking and moody, we puchase nothing and settle our late lunch at KFC located in one of the shopping mall. We took back the same bus 901 which we board earilier from the opposite direction and was back at school by 1830. The remaining time that was left was spend slacking in our hostel doing assigment and having a good rest for another day.
