At midnight, it was Shun Qing birthday celebration. We meet up in front our rooms and start to hide in Shun Qing’s room. She returns to her room and we surprised her by singing a birthday song. After the song, we give her our best wishes and we went back to our room.

In the morning, we will have our first lab test. We woke up early and went to the class. There is nothing much happening today. Morning class consists of lecture and a mock lab test to prepare us for the real lab test. After the test, we went to try out the canteen near our class. Here are some shots of what we eat for lunch.

After our lunch, we went back to our bunk for some rest. After a sufficient rest, we went to our afternoon class. We had our first test and after that, it marks the end of our flexim. Hence, we went back to our bunk and we went to have a dinner with Mr. Joseph Loh. After that, we went back to our bunk and it marks the end of the day.

The following day, we went to pluck some oranges. Today, we will be able to interact with the local students and learn more about them. At this area, it has a lot variety of vegetables and fruits. Near the orange trees, there is a small pond. The pond contains fishes and clams! We manage to get a few clams. After that, we went for some exploring and we found out that the Chinese students were burning some sweet potato. The sweet potato was sweet even thought the skin were all burnt As pictures speak a thousand words, here are some photos of today events.

After plucking a lot of oranges, we went back to the University for some Bbq. We carried the drinks there and set up the fire. The way they Bbq is differ from the way we usually did in Singapore. Here, we need to start our fire without starters. It resembles outdoor cooking more than bbq. After the fire start, let's get the cooking started. We cook a lot of meats and vegetables. The seasoning that was used consists of chili powder, salt, oil and some bbq sauce. Not to forget, here are some photos of the Bbq event.
The fire is burning!
