21 March 2012







21 March 2012
Wednesday, Mr. Lim taught us a new chapter, Chapter 4 in SOM. It was easy to follow but sometimes confusing when I have to find the centroid of equilibrium and did 2 tutorial questions. He eventually released us at 11am to get an early lunch before our trip to the San Xing Dui museum later at 1.20pm. It was my first time to take my lunch at the canteen together with my roommate, Chee Seng. The food there is worth it and it does taste good. The meal consists of a bowl of rice and you can get to choose up to three different dishes to put on your plate.
After lunch, I went back to my dorm to take a nap but I woke up late and everyone was waiting for me. It was so embarrassing because I was hardly late in my life. We took a public bus and quite a short journey (a few miles from school).
When we got there, the teachers paid for our tickets to enter the museum and each were given a recorder and an earpiece.
 The earpiece was so low quality that my teacher’s one is spoilt, I ended up giving mine and use my headphones to listen. 
We saw old treasures dating back 3000 to 4000 years ago and listen to the recorder while moving and glancing around. Most of the treasures were gold foil, bronze that rusted and a lot of jade tools. We went to their gift shop but everything was so expensive and I never spend a single cent. 
We spent the whole afternoon there until 6pm, we then took another public bus back to school but this time the bus never travel much on the road, the driver travelled off road which was bumpy and the ride was atrocious.
Dinner time is coming and I called my China friends, one of them was Liu Jiao, to take dinner with Yat Ming and me. We ate at the dim sum place, cheap and good. 
At night, Yat Ming went back to the dorm to work and I simply followed Liu Jiao to her English Conversation class.


 The class was quiet but they hardly spoke English, this class is to improve their speech and confidence when going on stage to present.
At 8pm, I still followed her to her cheer leading class where I had fun practicing with her and her friends. I danced very enthusiastically that my legs hurt bad.
