Day 30 - New campus tour plus test

Woke up at 6 today. Got 油条(Fried dough-like thing. Crispy though) for breakfast.

Assembled by 8 at the main gate. All of us were waiting for Zee Min, fashionably late as per usual. She did a funny thing, she was running off in another direction and we were all laughing and someone pointed out she looked like a KFC worker.


And the hour long bus ride wasn't any better... By the time I arrived at my destination, I was a little unwell due to motion sickness but it passed soon enough.

This is the library(图书馆) of the new campus.

And the huge interior pillars...

It's so high tech that we are denied access unless you have a card to tap for entry... We all were allowed as a staff came and opened the gate for us.

First stop, the museum to learn more about the school's history.

The logo of 武汉科技大学(Wuhan University of Science of Technology). Welcome to the new campus.

And the school song... Well, the student in charge of singing as a demonstration wasn't here today and so, too bad.

I still have little idea who is this guy as I wasn't really listening in. Zee Min was like, "This guy nearly has the same name as me..."

And the inscription behind the statue...

Principals of Wuhan University of Science and Technology respectively.

Wuhan University of Science and Technology used to be in the steel industry before it was formerly recognised and transformed into the school we have today. No wonder we went to a steel industry.. link here?

The rest of them are attentively listening to the explanation.

The two guides. The one on the left translated into English while the one on the right was speaking in Mandarin. The translator did her best in trying to speak English and I applaud her for that.

Seeing her do that, I am reminded of the 3rd NE message: We must uphold meritocracy and incorruptibility.We provide opportunities for all, according to their ability and effort.

I am sure that the students all in China who masters English can come to Singapore, where they will be employed according to their abilities and efforts. Our china classmates are already a good example.

The model of 黄家湖校区, the area of the new campus.

Now, compare it to the old campus where we are now at 青山校区.

Our hostel location in the model. We are there for 6 weeks... Gonna miss it if we return back to Singapore.

Once outside, went to relax on the couch and saw the three female musketeers - Nadiyah and Xin Hui are sleeping while Hashana is looking at something funny.

This anime picture was from a book placed on the table which I picked up to read. It teaches animation. The girl looks so sweet.

And the view of the building... Majestic, no?

To get around, it's good exercise to climb on the stone slabs. Actually,as long as you have the momentum. you would not fall over nor lose your balance at all...

Where do we get such warm welcome massage?

Surprise? Thought that's the last place we'll go? Introducing, school of Medical Collage of WUST.

And one of the lecturer? All I know is that he seems to be the overall in charge of this area.

First stop, exhibition on biology section.

WARNING: Some of the images and all videos may not be suitable to watch. I will not be held responsible for any mishaps. Thank you.

It's a medical school? What can I say except that, yes, it's all REAL and well preserved.

Heartbreaking for all Mothers to have such foetus.... But sadly...

Tapeworm? Or a Worm? I am seriously hoping it's the latter....

Biology section... Dissection on many animals...

There's no way I will go back there at night, Oh no...

Moving on to the ICU unit..(This is really like a simulation)

Randolph is giving the 'patient' some mouth to mouth resuscitation. It's a useful skill to have...

The simulation equipment that medical students will learn to use. A breathing machine as well as a container for the equipment that uses electricity that we often see in the movies.

And finally, medical students practicing and learning from the dummy simulation.

And we are all gathered here to present some skit to the local medical students. In MDE, only Xiang Yu and Weiguang's group were to present. (Xiang Yu, Seok, Nadiyah, Me, Weiguang, Zee Min, Xin Hui and Masita)

We have 2 hosts who work well together.... Different divisions as well...

Only Zee Min can amuse me to no end. She was lying down and ended up with the paper(she prepared beforehand) stuck to her...

Some game that goes on to, "Telephone". The two animals were a pig and a kangaroo. Only we could see the kangaroo but pig was turned into a rabbit instead..

We went for lunch while talking with the local students and interacted with them while our lecturers went with their lecturers.

Went off to walk around the lake while chatting with the local students. I had to exercise up some rough pathway but manageable.

Took this lake view (It is without a doubt, a lake).

See, I called it 鬼城(Ghost City). There's no one there....

Bade goodbye to the local students after photo taking and some leaving of contact details(Masita, you popular gal). Went back to school as we still had to do test 2.

Erm, I am more familiar with 2 local guy students, both I address as 哥哥(elder brother). One is 王哥哥(Sorry, not good with names) and the other I use the nickaname 小象(Little elephant). Come on, I can't remember chinese names easily especially after meeting them once only...

Reached school at 3. Went to revise and slack until 4 whereby we proceeded to the classroom for the test. Once again, I did my best...

Went down the lift with lecturer Sandra. Oh, so she's the one eveyone was talking about. Meet one of our IS lecturer!!

She bought a bike priced at 400 yuan. Healthy lifestyle.

Zee Min wanted to try the bike but was unsucessful...

Went for dinner at the 清淡(plain, islamic food) restaruant. She really keeps gloating all because she saw a 帅哥 at the basketball tournement. Grr.... I am not intersted!!

And shooped around the area before going to purchase some chocolate drink.

She scribbled another message for the 3rd batch of OIP students to come and see it.

And that's all as we are all doing our assignment 2. Presentation tomorrow... 加油!

And we managed to catch a glimpse of fireworks. People here can just use fireworks as expression or emotional outlets, i think it's cool.
