day 7

Today was a day of mixed feelings, to be sad or not to be. We went to huang jia hu campus in the morning to visit their university. Some of us slept on the bus(as usual) due to the long hours of travelling. Anyway, when we reached the campus, we were greeted by this massive group of china kids and when we went off the bus, they swarmed towards us and each of us had a china partner(we found out in the end that they were our guides for the day). The first thing my partner asked me was, do you speak chinese? When i said i did, she had a sigh of relief. The guides are acutally all majoring in english, so why not speak english to them. Hmm..well some of the other guides had to speak english to my malay teacher and indian friends. How unlucky hahahahha. We had lunch and some presentation together and split up after that. My group of friends went to visit the library to find ben cao gang mu for calvin's grandpa and after that we went to the sports hall to have a game of tennis, my skills are rusty beyond any help. Goodness. At 2pm all of us met up again and went to this eerie place that is full of dead human parts specimen. I was kind of grossed out and some of the girls were like screaming away. After that it was time to say goodbye to our china guides for the day. To be sad or not to be, alot of us tried to stay happy. As our bus left the campus, one of the china kids was holding back her tears. Aww ): At around 5 some of us went for our daily run around the campus. To our horror, the wind was so strong and even as we were running, we felt the chill! For our dinner, some of us went to eat at a small stall owned by china muslims, kinda cool. They make ramen on the spot and its very yummy indeed. The last stupid thing i did for the day was that i went to drink grape ice blended and although it tasted very nice, my mouth was freezing..Brrrr...that pretty much sums up my day and tomorrow will be a day of lectures!(and the picture of my dormitory is finally up!)
