Started Electives in Jiao Tong University (shanghai)

Note : This is the blog for Friday (9.3.2007)



=( sad ... sch in jiao tong uni started on Friday , v sianz to realise tt , coz 8.30am gotta reach sch liaoz , and the whole journey took us like an hr ... Ytd , the whole family got out of the flat@ 7.10am and reached the bus stop @ 7.15am, and we were juz in time to catch the bus. We also saw Yuan shan and Pauline on the bus with us. we reached the sch @ 8.15am , but we still had to walk to the east entrance as the bus we alighted were at the west entrance. When we reached the where all international school students were gathered , we were welcomed by the sight of "ang mohs" & u noe what , someone was damn excited lo *** (dun wanna sabo tt person). Anyway, we realised tt we were the only one who reached , the other bunch of people were late . Then our in-charge actually told us tt the 5 teachers waited for us since 8.10am for a photo session . Damn paiseh lo , coz noone remembered tt we had to be ther by 8.10am. Wats worse was tt there were so mani late-comers.


Anyway , we were led to the classroom number 323 at the 3rd floor . WELL , the room's furniture looked new and stylish, better than Ntu lo. There were already one teacher in the room waiting for us when we entered. He is prof ZHUANG , has the same surename as me .. hehe but his full name is ZHUANG LAI LAI (***eh uhm ... ) He is gng to teach us on "culture exchange" . We were told tt we will be having 5 different modules , mainly 1.Culture exchange 2. Chinese Lit 3.Han yu 4.Chinese history 5.Chinese economy. OMG ... One period is like 45minutes , starting from 8.30am. Then 10am ,there will be a 20 mins break . 11.50am is our lunch time till 1.10pm. We are dismissed @ 4.30pm. Ytd only had two diff modules, the second one washaving han yu lesson by prof LU YING. She is a nice teacher but her lessons are fated to be not tt interesting ... at least she tried telling some jokes and playing some han yu games. Had a long day in the sch lo. The lunch we had with the 2nd level guys and with yuan shan n pauline at a restaurant near the sch. BUT the serving dishes timing were damn long lo , it took like 15 mins interval to serve one dish. We were damn pek chey ther , coz we knew we were late for the lessons. But no choice la ... IN the end we were late for the lesson as we reached the classroom at 1.20pm . (eh we went to buy milk tea too ~~~ )


Think time passes v fast , v soon the sch ended. We went with the same bunch of friends with the guys to go to the technological building at XU JIA HUI. Me n marg wanted to checkout the portable hard disks price. Think go with the guys better as they can give us advice on it . Most hard disks are ranged from 499-1399 depends on the memory size and the brands. Haben decided on any , gotta consider carefully lo. In the end , only JUN QIN bought a logitech wirelessmouse & keyboard for 260rmb , think it's worth it ba . After which we walked v far to have our dinner as we could not find any nice restaurants round tt area. The dinner was nice. I had "fried beef hor fun" which tasted good and Mel's ramen also not bad. After the filling dinner , the girls decided to go shopping while the guys had to return to the computer shop to replace the keyboard as JQ realised the usb cable was missing. So we separated along the way. the 6 of us went to to shop . Actually nothing much , the shops ther are still mainly selling computer products. Haiz .. but the girls managed to find a shop selling herbal facial/skin products and got what they needed. We left XU JIA HUI @ around 9pm.


By the time we reached home, it was like 10pm liaoz , the same routine again . Took a bathe turn by turn. By 11.15pm, me & mel went to bed liaoz ... as there were lesson today.
