Tomorrow will be my last day in Wuhan. I can't believe that our Wuhan journey is about to end in 2 days time.. And so, the school sponsored the farewell dinner for us. We had our farewell dinner at the hotel next to our school. But you know what? We had to share the restaurant with someone holding their wedding dinner there! So in the same hall, there was a farewell dinner and a wedding dinner. None of our teachers knew that we were sharing with the people there and so we were only told not to wear too lok cock (sloppy). So ya, most of us wore jeans but the thing was that most of us wore either black or white shirt! This matter plus we made alot of noise during the dinner sort of made the people at the wedding dinner unhappy. o.O

This is the thing about being in China. We don't know what will be happening until the actual day. It has been like this since Day 1 where i remember we had no communications available to contact our parents. The teachers cannot even tell us of the venue of the classroom for the next day lesson because they will only know it on the actual day itself. This made it very difficult to plan things in advance. Even if we were told one thing today, they can always change their story again tomorrow. I feel that Wuhan really have to improve they way they are doing things as they can't always do things on the last minute. This will hinder the progress of everything in their country.

That's the wedding section.

Here's our farewell dinner section.

Our lecturer making a speech to sort of close this Wuhan OIP trip.



That's the dean making a speech.


After the speech, our meal was served. Don't ask me what food is that because i don't know what i'm eating either...






This soup is the nicest food served there.






During our meal, the wedding ceremony started. I suddenly felt so emotional when i saw this. To be honest, i miss my boyfriend back at home. It isn't easy to have a long distance relationship even if it is for 6 weeks. Tears shed, quarrels arised but eventually we made peace with one another. My hands quivered when i was holding the chopsticks. I don't know why but i felt so happy and sad at the same time. Anyway, since i only witness half of their wedding, i felt that for that half which i've seen, it is the same practice as in Singapore. The only difference is that we will definetely share the wedding hall with other people hosting another event.

The bride and groom walking down the aisle together.


The groom on his knees putting on the ring for the bride.

After which they hugged and the guy carried the girl and they turned in circles! How romantic!

All the litters on the floor are the poppers used.

Me and brenda.


We went to play pool after that. This will be the last time where i'll be using the lousy pool table!

We then went to join in for the KTV session hosted by our lecturers. The room was quite big and the sound system was not too bad.
I sat on some antique hanging chair.

This is the KTV lounge. No alcohols or soft drinks served. We can only sit, chat and sing in the room. Haha.

I have to admit that i am shock to hear my lecturer singing. He was quite daring to sing eh? And he really does have a nice voice! Thumbs Up!


Now it's time to pack my luggage to prepare for the weighing session tomorrow! Oh my gosh! I'm so excited to go home right now! But when i think of packing everything into the luggage, i'll become moodless. So many things to pack.....

I have to squeeze all of these into my luggage. Good luck to me. Haha. Oh ya! I found 100 yuan in my luggage! I'm rich! Oh my gosh, the cash came at the right time! Because of this, i shall go out tomorrow. No point bring back the cash. Haha! So happy. 100 yuan can buy me alot of things leh!


Alright. Shall sleep early and wake up early tomorrow! Last day in Wuhan so i shall not waste time sleeping! Hehe! So excited!

Oh btw, one last story:
As you know, i am sleeping beside the wall. And so last night, somehow i slept very near the wall. So at that moment, i wanted to turn to change my sleeping position and guess what... I knocked my forehead right straight on the wall! Gosh. My friends were all using their laptops. One of them even used earpiece to watch movie but they all heard the knock. It was that loud. Today i woke up and i pressed on my forehead and i felt pain. Lucky there wasn't any bruise on my forehead! Ok. End of story. Lesson learnt: Put a pillow on the wall to prevent another knock on the wall.
