Luggage Packing
The winter jacket that I will be hand carrying.
The clothes that I'm going to bring. There's so much to pack and I'm so lazy to do so. I've just checked the weather forecast in Wuhan. It seems to be freezing so I might bring along my gloves.
The light pink winter coat that I lent Ci Min.
Luggage tags that I bought today: NOT YOUR BAG (for my bagpack)! PUT IT BACK, IT'S MINE (for my luggage)! :D
My luggage. I think it might be too small to fit in all the things that I'm gonna bring?
Thank goodness that each of us is limited to 30kg of luggage! (:

Last Pre-Trip Briefing
Yesterday a final pre-trip briefing was conducted by Mr. Wong at blk 46-01-13. Some of them had their exams thus they arrived later. Meanwhile, those who arrived earlier will download the software that is needed for the lessons which will be conducted in WuHan.
Basically, each of us received a file with all the details in it, from Mr. Wong. He briefly went through most of the things and also distributed the OIP SoE shirts to us. It's ORANGE IN COLOUR! Not my favourite colour! :/
After which, my group had a short discussion on the item that we're going to present.
In the night, I happened to see Ci Min & Hui Miang onlined. Thus, we had a short discussion via MSN. Through this dicussion, I also managed to get to know Hui Miang better because we had a short chat. :]
But the idea is not confirmed yet as we are still brainstorming for better ones. Sigh. Brainstorming in process... I need more inspirations!
Such a coincidence, I caught Mr. Lim taking photos of us!
Most of them were busy with the downloading of the software. In the process of downloading it, some met problems. We are lucky that we have two experts with us for the day!
Xin Hui is ready to leave? :P
Stephanie and Seok are still having problems with their laptop. *Sigh in dismay*
A group photo with OIP peers & lecturers who are in charged.
[Photo was taken from Winson's blog. A group photo with my groupmates is still with Stephanie. Will update it as soon as I received the photo!]
I hope it will snow in WuHan!
But I won't expect too much as I think chances are will be quite low.
Anticipating. . . (-:

More updates available
Hey people, I'm back to update! My exams are over! I'm feeling so excited now!! :D
Alright, past few days Mr. Wong have been sending us quite a number of emails with regard to the weather forecast in Wuhan. Heard that it'll be cold over there and there's a possibility that it will snow! But I think chances are, will be pretty low.
Basically, I just need to buy some daily necessities and maybe a long-sleeved shirt because I already have winter clothings. Hope to get a new pair of shoes too!
Just now I checked my bank account and have confirmed that, the amount of money for the trip has been reimbursed. Great!
By the way, please take note that on the 3rd of March, we're supposed to be at the airport
before 5.30am and not 6.30am. [:

Yesterday I heard from my grandmother saying that the currency rate has dropped from 4.5+ to 4.47?!?! Oh my god, the rate is decreasing so rapidly. Sigh, I haven't change any china currencies yet. I wondered whether my mum has or not.
Time is running out.

Good News
I can understand why most of the time I'm looking forward to check the e-mails. I have just received an e-mail from Mr. Wong saying that we're able to apply for the special additional baggage allowance. It was indeed a very good news for me! :D
If the travel agency approves, it will meant that I'm able to bring more stuffs to Wuhan! And I need not worry that my luggage will exceed the weight limit. That would definitely be great!
Thanks to Mr. Wong & other lecturers who are always putting in efforts to make this trip a better one.
Anyway, I've already sent a copy of my student card to Mr. Wong. Hope the travel agency will approve the application! Looking forward to more updates from the lecturers. :-)

Anyway, I've just completed my individual learning plan! [:
My blog will be undergoing renovation soon. And I have yet to put a tagboard!

Pre-Trip Meeting
Yesterday a main briefing session was held at LT5A at 9.00am. I was quite surprised to see so many people at the briefing room. Didn't know that so many people are going to Wuhan.
After which, we proceeded to room 05-03-0004 for the specific MDE briefing. We submitted our passport for Visa application. The briefing ended at around 12pm. In this briefing, I also managed to know who are my group members. (:
There'll be another meet-up on the 26th of february, a thursday, which is right after my last day of exam (25th feb).
I'm looking forward to the trip! =)
