Day 10- Physiology quiz and bye Da-jie...

Felt really sad today when I woke up because Da-jie will be leaving for Shanghai in the afternoon :(

Woke up early to have breakfast at the hotel. Food was not too bad.

Had a nice morning walk from the hotel to the classroom with Da-jie :) Reached the classroom super early, but I studied for the quiz while waiting for class to start.

Physiology quiz was quite ok because Dr Lau went through with us what he has taught before quiz started. Then, after quiz, he continued with the lesson. And today, he cancelled the afternoon class again. So some of us went out with the china students to eat the xiao chi while others went back to the hostel to rest and pack for tmr's cruise. As for me, I met Da-jie at my classroom block, went back to my room, put down my stuff then went out with her for lunch.

After lunch with her, we went to the bakery and the supermarket. Then, took a bus back to her hotel and check out. After that, walked to my school and put down her things in my room. We left hurriedly to the place we went last night because Da-jie wanted to buy a thick, good jacket for her tibet trip. Finally, we reached the place and bought one which I thought looked quite pretty :)

Then, we had to rush back to the hostel so that Da-jie can catch her train back to Shanghai on time. Reached the hostel, quickly packed everything and I left with her to the main road outside my school. Managed to catch a taxi quite fast (Didn't take a bus because she might not have enough time) Said my goodbye to her and watch her leave in the taxi :( See you again next year.

First and foremost, really want to thank Dr Lau for allowing me to stay with my sis for 1 night and entrusting me into her hands.

Thank you Da-jie for keeping me company. It's been great having you around :D Will remember what you told me and all your encouragements. And to always count my blessings that God has given me.

Thank you Father for providing this opportunity for Da-jie and I. And thank you that Da-jie managed to make it on time to catch her train. I pray that you continue to keep both of us safe and that as we're away from our family, in a foreign land, we can learn to always depend on you and to be the salt and light of the world wherever we are. May we always be reminded of the verse in Joshua 1:9 that says :" Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go." Amen.

Day 9- Physiology lesson and presentation; Meet up with Da-jie!!!

Today, I woke up feeling both nervous and excited. Nervous because of the presentation later on. And excited because I'm going to meet Da-jie later in the afternoon! :D

When my friends and I walked out of the hostel, we were surprised! Wuhan is finally raining and the temperature has dropped a lot!! Wow, it's now even colder than air-con! Haha.. Here are some pictures outside my hostel:


So Physiology lesson started at 9am. And my group was the last to present because we were the most unprepared :P Anyway, it turned out quite ok, I guess :)

Dr Lau also cancelled the afternoon class which means I get to spend more time with Da-jie. So, after class, Dr Lau and I waited at the hotel that Da-jie will be staying at. Waited quite long though. But, glad that Da-jie managed to find her way to the hotel on her own :)

After checking in, we went out for lunch at the soup stall. It's nice to drink a bowl of hot soup in a cold weather. Haha. After lunch, we went to the bookstore nearby and bought a few things for my friends and mummy's bible club kids. Hope they like them.

Next, we went back to my room to pack my stuff as I'll be staying with Da-jie for 1 night in the hotel :D After packing and everything, we had a nice walk from my school to the hotel. And the next activity was dinner and a bit of shopping. Because Da-jie said on her way to the hotel, she saw a few shops and a big supermarket so we decided to take bus 551 to that place. Journey was only about 10 minutes. Saw a few shops (mainly sports shop which reminded me that I need to get a jacket for Rhoda) Anyway, we walked around and found a resaurant selling beefsteak set meal for 29 yuan. Thought was quite ok as it came along with bread, soup, egg, pasta/potato, and free flow of salad.

I had a great talk and dinner with Da-jie :D

Da-jie :)

After dinner, walked around a bit more and headed back to the hotel (took a taxi). Because I have Physiology quiz tomorrow, I had to study at night :( If not, I will definitely watch the DVD Da-jie brought. So, while I was studying in the hotel room, she was doing her own things then took a nap. After my studying, she woke up and we talked a bit more then fell asleep at about 11.30pm.

I had lots of fun with Da-jie today!
