Day 17 - No more IS lessons

Woke up at 7 plus after hearing Hui Miang's alarm. Then, snuggled back to bed and fell asleep until 11.52.

Introducing my breakfast and lunch- Beef instant noodles. Don't feel like going out to get breakfast. So we went to Weiguang's room to get hot water for our noodles.

Afterwards, went for Xiao ling 老师's class. This time her lesson was on "Etiquette " and "Business in China".


One of the slides. We cannot call the service staff in China "Missy(小姐)". It seems to be rather offensive as it also carries another meaning- That you are interested in the service staff.

Confucianism and it's 7 core teachings with respect to being polite.

Whaa!! The best. We all heard of Coca Cola. But what about Pizza Hut? Intriguing thought.

Since I was so freaking bored in class(4 hours straight of history and I will see how others fare), I started taking random photos.

This is Zee Min and the others in the background all having different reactions by the time the lesson was into the 3rd hour.

I told you I was super bored. I look rather smug and deserve a slap huh?

Near the end of the lessons, we presented a token of our appreciation. Xian Yu, representing MDE division, went to present it and was in the spotlight.

See how happy Xiao Ling 老师 to finally get rid of us? Just joking. While her lectures my really be boring to some extent, I fell that she's really engaging and approachable.

The 3 lecturers 排排站(queueing up in a row) We have Mr Wong, Xiao Ling and Mr Cheong.

At last, I went back to my room, put my bag down and went to the street to find Pei Jie and Zee Min as I purchased my dinner.

Along the way, something's really different:

The street is finally coated with a fresh coat of paint! See those diamond shaped makings? They weren't there when I first arrived there... finally, they actually started to take note of the safety of fellow students.

And the zebra crossing. Finally, we all don't have to be labelled as jaywalkers anymore (although, we still do it discreetly).

I want to watch Animal Planet. Seriously, I am missing the feeling of lazing on my sofa and watching documentaries and cartoons while pigging out on snacks.

Why must the car make me remember about my comforts... Damn it.

And with that, I conclude the night by studying the BPE (Business Process Engineering) as there will be a test on chapters 1 to 5 tomorrow. All the way!!
