Hey, sorry for the late post! My internet connection wasn't working AGAIN! I don't know why but I'm quite irritated by it already because this has been happening frequently! I'm so worried that the connection might just disconnect anytime. It's weird. I have been figuring for a long time but still cannot find the root cause.
08/03/09 (Day 06)
Today is known as the "三八妇女节 (Woman's Day)". Some of the WuHan people do celebrate this occasion. Early in the morning while I was jogging at the stadium right opposite my dormitory, I heard the sound of firecrackers. In Singapore, we won't get the chance to hear this as we're not supposed to set firecrackers and fireworks. How good if I'm able to set fireworks too?
Anyway, as I've mentioned above, in the morning I went jogging with Hui Miang & Clive at the stadium. We jogged six rounds in total. It has been such a long time since I jogged. This is the first time I went jogging during Winter. It was a great experience! :]

This is my breackfast cum lunch. Fried Noodles. It was quite salty for me.
After lunch, Our China peers brought us to RiverBank (汉口) to have fun. We went to the Amusement Park by bus 549. It took us approximately 40 minutes to reach there. The bus was very squeezy. We are often reminded by our China peers to take good care of our own stuffs. BEWARE OF THEFT AND ROBBERY!

Our destination! The streets were crowded.

I guessed they must be father and son working hand in hand to row the boat. It's so heartwarming to see this kind of scenario. (:

Ci Min deep in thoughts. . . maybe she's missing home?? Or she's thinking of food??

Isn't it artistic? HA HA!! I'm just kidding man.

My lovely groupmates! :D

Benedict and I.

The 3 best friends (One is missing, by right there's four) & Franice! (Oops, Zero happened to blink when the shot was taken.)
The storyline which has been used before...
Guy A was standing by the lakeside. He was enjoying the scenery.

Here comes Guy B. He had some evil thoughts in his mind. MUAHAHAHA!

OH MY GOD! He kicked Guy A down the lake! Guy A: HELP!!!! I DON'T KNOW HOW TO SWIM! Guy B: WHO CARES...

Guy B: Where's Guy A???? I'm sorry that I can't help too. (EVIL LAUGHS)



The entrance fee for Amusement Park was free. Some of them took Roller Coaster whereas I sat on other rides such as Viking and etc. I didn't dare to take roller coaster because I was really scared!!

So sweet & cute!! The little girl girl gave her first kiss to the little boy boy. I like toddlers :]

One of the rides that I took. The ride was okay only. It still cannot be compared to Viking.

Viking! This was very thrilling! Ha ha. We were sitting at the second last row. My heart almost jumped out when it swings to the top.

Huge candies!


A huge statue outside the shopping centre. There were quite a number of shopping centres in this area! There wasn't enough time for us to shop! I want to go back there to shop again.

The streets here are still quite crowded in the night. But I heard that there will be no more bus after 9.30pm.

We rushed for the bus before it's 9.30pm. The bus ride was... JERKY! I felt very uncomfortable on the bus... I think it's worse than the thrilling rides we sat at the amusement park.

The bus had to pass Yangtze River Second Bridge [武汉长江二桥].

A portrait of mine! It costs me 25 YUAN. Before leaving the amusement park, I had my portrait drawn by a street artist. Some said it looks like me. What do you think? :)
I had to remain stationary for around 10 minutes. I felt uneasy. Ha ha.
This portrait shall be well-kept as memories in WuHan...
Hmm, I saw many beggars when I was at the Amusement Park. I only donated money to one of the beggars. I wanted to help them very much but I have my limits too. I felt guilty. Sigh, I realised I'm actually very fortunate as compared to them. At least I still have a roof over my head, I have enough to wear and settling my three meals is not a problem for me. I think we all should really be contented already.
