33rd Day in China...
One of the more eventful day where we did quite a number of things in one day! Interesting and funny. =)
DAY 33had a revision lecture to prepare us for next Tuesday's test. The lecture was pretty simple as we realised that the test doesn't really test us the theory part but our understanding about it. We will have to explain and provide reasons on why we state certain things as our answer. Hmm. I guess the paper would not be very easy. Need to study a little. if not, I think I will die when they ask questions regarding to theories which I'm super bad at. haha! and we got back the test and assignment results. Thank God for the good grades and thank Jacob for his carefulness when doing assignment. Else I doubt I would have gotten such grades. THANKS BRO! =)

Only me so focus. haha! =P
after lesson ended. we went to Lu xiang once again. This time with Da Ming, Azri, Nat and Jing Liang as well. So the nine of us took this van like cab to go there and it cost us around 3RMB per person! WOOHOO! CHEAP! you will never find such prices in Singapore man! haha! over there, we ate our lunch at McDonalds before heading to do a little shopping around. Jacob and I found out that the uniform for the staff in McDonalds are very cute. haha!

the inside of McDonalds

bored waiting for food. haha!


the staff of McDonalds! the attire is SUPER CUTE right?? I wish Singapore had something like that other than just black -.-

The counter.
After that, we went walking around and buy lots of stuff. I bought a shirt and a headset. Zheng wei bought a earpiece. Jacob bought quite a number of items too. Cheng teck bought a bag. it was a nice time hanging out with the guys. getting to do stupid stuff and talk. a great time of fellowship.
We went back to the sim lim like tower to accompany Zheng wei to buy his earpiece. While I went back to the stall where Jacob and Sheng kiat had previously bought their headsets from. I went over to buy the headset for someone and also to look around. Jacob went over to buy a thumb drive. it is REALLY cheap i tell you. haha! I shan't disclose the price. LOL. anyway, the stall owner had a pretty busy day today as she was running here and there. so we had to wait a little for the owner to head back to the stall before making the purchase. while waiting, the other staffs invited us to sit inside their stall which was super kind of them. we had a chat with the two staffs and they were really fun to talk to. One stayed in Beijing and came over to learn about hardware fixing while the other is a permanent staff but she is really sweet. had a nice chat with them and even exchanged number. they even booked us for next Saturday to go out and have fun together. haha! so kind of them. =)
So after that, we took the bus back where we saw this scene of many people chasing after a bus. It looks as though there is a movie star on the bus and the people are trying to chase the bus down. haha! too bad I didnt have the video or picture on that part, but I have a picture that shows how it looks like after the bus stopped.

the crowd in front of the bus. LOL. it is really hilarious when u really see the people moving together with the bus while it is still moving.

the bus map. it is on the bus and I really cant figure out the whole journey. LOL.
alighted near the KFC area to have our dinner. ate a fried rice which was finally not that oily. haha! and we had the bubble tea where there was this 星座 thing. we made fun about CT's 星座 and said that he was sexually aggressive (which was what the thing said due to some words being covered). haha! AND HIS EARS TURNED SUPER RED AFTER THAT! haha! it was really funny looking at his ears.

Cheng teck and his RRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEDDDDDDDDDDD ears!
haha! after dinner, we went up to the supermarket to re-stock some stuff so that the next day we could bring it out as we were visiting this garden. so there isn't any restaurants as of what we know, so we had to bring out own food. and Jacob tried to be like those little boys in the shopping centre, sitting in the shopping cart! LOL. super dumb -.-

ah boy Jacob holding on to a box of Condom, thinking on which guys around him to use on.

SHOCKED when he saw me! haha!
While walking back, we saw this Mitusbishi lancer which is really nice! jacob and I tried doing shadows/fade away with his camera. haha!

Jacob's fading.

My fading! haha!
went back apartment wanting to blog. end up the internet was down after 1130pm i guess. SO IRRITATING LA! made all of us have NOTHING to do.. and luckily it came back. phew! or else I think I will die. I WAS WATCHING ANIME HALFWAY LO! haha! so yea. Thank God it is back! haha! and I managed to chat with Joyce and Hui ru yesterday night as well. had some great time of sharing and I thank them for sharing so much. I felt that there was a bonding session between us even though we know each other for only 5 weeks. hopefully the friendship will extend better. =)
REFLECTION OF DAY 33, FRIDAY, 26th SEPTEMBER 2008:Time: 10:18pm
Today is another day where we get to relax and explore around. Went back to 鲁巷once again as some of us wanted to buy certain stuff and to walk around.
Back at the 苏宁, we went to look for certain electronic products. Jacob and I went back to one of the stalls where we bought the head-set from. While waiting for the boss to come back to make payment, we had a little chat session with two of the remaining staffs at the stall. Both of them were very friendly towards us. We talked about topics from our education all the way to sharing of individual’s background. The more interesting talk we had was with the technician who came all the way from Beijing to learn. Although he majored in software development during his University days, he came over to become a hardware technician as he was more interested in hardware. His main objective was not only to learn something but to pursue his interest when doing work which I feel is more important than other factors such as money or status.
From what I have encountered today and what I’ve learnt from PPP lesson. I feel that pursuing interest is more important when seeking for a job. We can find a job that is related to our studies for starters so as to collect experience. After which, seeking job(s) that suits our interest is more important. As an interest will keep us going for a longer period of time even when the job gets tough at times. Factors such as working hours, work venue and pay does not affect me as much as I feel that things will come to you once you work hard enough for it.
