14 March 2012

Wednesday, after finished learning Chapter 1 of SOM, we learnt Chapter 2 which is about torque and torsion. Similar to chapter 1 but more on moments. Today both lessons IS and SOM were dry, most of went quiet and sleepy. IS lesson we have Ms. Liu teaching us about the three main religions in China. They are Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism. It taught us about the holy places in China, the gestures and the founders’ of these religions which lived long ago like 2000 years before us. In China, Buddhist drink tea that is bitter to enjoy life better and this few weeks we will be visiting E’mei Mountain which is the tallest Buddhist Mountain among the 4 in China with the largest Buddha statue ever made centuries ago. A big event happened today where Ngee Ann versus China local Students in a friendly basketball match after lessons at around 5pm to 6.30pm. During this match, I get to talk to the local China students when we were watching the match and made new friends while introducing ourselves. During dinner, my friend, Yat Ming and I met up with Xiao Jie and talk about our stay here in Sichuan and after that we went for a stroll around the campus and on their track and field. She called some of her friends over to meet me while my friend went back to do homework. Her company and I went round the school field 2 times before I showed them my apartment. Once they were up there, they met some of my friends and gain more knowledge of how Singapore students live their lives. We talked in our apartment for 30 minutes before they went back to their dorms to rest for the night. In one week, I made many new friends, I will remember them for the rest of my life and treasure them and my trip experience. Friendship is powerful!!
