A much better day...

Today was a much better day really. Weather was fine. Atmosphere was good. What else could i ask for? Today started off with a class at 9am. We rushed to class a we all woke up late. Upon reaching, we were informed that the class was postponed to afternoon unfortunately. I felt sad as i had wasted my beauty sleep. With nothing else to do, we went to the supermarket to stock up on our necessities and had a hearty lunch at McDonald's which was stone's throw away from the supermarket. I found out that the service in the shops that we visited were much better than expected, but could be better. The locals always seem to have a smile on their face wherever they go. After eating, we went back to the University to have our first IS Class on the history & culture of China.
5000 years of rich History to be heard. Countless numbers of cultures and beliefs to be known. Thousands of languages to learn. Uncountable places of interest to visit and be mesmerised. These were the things that i learnt in my IS Class. I was sincerely impressed when i learnt that China's history is much richer and more interesting than Singapore. On top of that, i came to know that four ladies were famed as the "Four Great Beauties" of China thousands of years ago and they are still remembered up till now! On top of that, i was shocked to learn that Wuhan locals are referred to as 'nine-headed birds' by other Chinese in China due to their wit & cunningness. Cool isn't it? I noticed that the China people respect and treasure their history with pride & dignity. I guess that is 1 lesson Singaporeans have to learn from them.
After our enriching lesson, we had a short rest before heading off to a shopping mall with the friendly local students. We ate our dinner at a local store and oh boy! The food was delicious! I loved the dumplings best. It was filled with soup and meat and when you bite it, you can feel the soup gushing out, perfectly complementing with the meat in it. Overall, it's the best dumplings i had ever had in my life. The tofu here was also nicer than those you can get in Singapore's seafood stalls. With our stomach's filled with delicious food, we went to the arcade in the shopping mall. My jaw dropped once i saw the arcade as it was extremely big! I was like a kid let loose in the amusement park once i entered the arcade. We had a hour and a half to play the games there. Fortunately, the games there were much better than those in Singapore's arcade. With our childhood memories relished, we left the mall and took a taxi back. On the way, a minor unfortunate incident occurred though. The taxi driver did not know how to get to our destination. Sad wasn't it? And it was our first time taking the taxi. He went around in circles and our local student leader kind of fought with him & managed to guide the way back to the school. Fortunately,we were not required to pay the full taxi fare. Home sweet home. Tomorrow would be a better day...
