Day 26 ; WU DANG SHAN!

Woke up early in the morning as usual! Packed our bags and leave our hostel to WU DANG SHAN!

Esh & I. We have got the same bagpack! We bought it to prepare ourselves to mount Wu Dang Shan.

Went to the temple beside our hotel! Need to walk quite a number of step to the temple! Look at the mist! very cold!!! Plus it was raining!

Inside the temple, there are tea tasting!

Outside the temple, we took a photo with the tourguide

.
Group B! Yanmeng missing!

US OUTSIDE THE TEMPLE!

Write your wishes on the red thing and toss it up! the higher it land on the tree, the wish will have a higher chance of coming true!

The huge temple! and the well infront of it!

Group B again, now, Edy's missing!

Look at the mist beside my head!

so cool right! Very cold and the miss very cool!

While walking back to our hotel, we saw this shen feng thing!

This is the trishaw that will be located around wu dang shan and when u are tired, you can pay people to carry you up wu dang shan!

Our Hotel!

Reflection ; Was quite afraid to climb wu dang shan tmr! as we need to climb 6000 over steps! Moreover, we were all tired after today's travelling and temple visiting! While going up the mountain, the tourguide kept rushing us! 'Ngee Ann tong xue, quai dian! yao kuan men le!" which means, faster! it's closing!

Day 25 IS Business Etiquette

Went for Business Etiquette Is module today!

Went into a room full of computers!

"gather your energy, listen carefully" Think that is what it meant. Direct translation?

This person was our IS teacher for the day! He kne how to make everybody's Computer freeze and display only his PPT slides! He spoke perfect english too! All our IS teacher are cool!

After IS, we went out by the school's backgate and we saw a STAGE in the school! so we acted as if we were performing! CANDID TO THE MAX! REB - LOC.

Jump shot outside SOFL.

Went out to have LUNCH!

Group B LUNCH!

Reflection ; Learnt a lot about Business Etiquette today! Though I had learnt it before in my secondary 3’s leadership program, it was good to refresh my memory again. For example, when we receive a business card, we have to take it with both hands and acknowledge it! Luckily that time when my elder sis gave me her business card, I kind of read it. LOL. CAN’T WAIT TO GO WU DANG SHAN TMR. EXCITED yet SCARED

Day 24 ; WUST night celebration

Did our usual BPE quiz on chapter 6!

During the night, we were told that there was National Day celebration located just outside the school's Atrium!

The Wushu Group!

Chinese dance!

The flag's CCA!

Musical instrument!

The huge crowd!

Emcees for China's 60th National Day celebration!

Reflection ; Watching the national day's celebration really brought back a lot of memories. During Singapore's national day, my family would order pizza and we would gather around and eat the pizza, drink coke and watch the live broadcast of the performance on television! Last year, i signed up as an usher for NDP'08 days! The rehearsal were tough and i remember that the instuctor told us this, "Everybody makes a part in making the national day 2008 memorable". Bet the national day parade in china had a lot of fireworks too! I MISS SINGAPORE!

The different CCA had put in a lot effort in practicing every night as they always had practices on the track which we usually go to have a jog at! The WuShu members especially! They have Physical training on the track. Running, jumping and hopping around! Everybody focused in making a nice national day's performance! Watcing the students performing on stage made me recall my first performance guitar performance!! Missing my cca too. GOOD JOB WUST PERFORMERS!

Day 23 ; High Obstacle course

HIGH OBSTACLE COURSE TODAY!

Instructors of the day! We received military training from them! For example, they would shout a command in chinese that instructs us to turn to the left and so on. And when he realized we all took like around 5seconds to figure out where is left, he reshouted his command but now, he did it with hand sign!

21 guns!

Us discussing what to draw on our flag as well as our skit!

The newspaper given to us was supposed to be our clothes! We all had to wear clothes before we go out! Newspaper clothes! A photo of us after the skit!

The stickers were our name tags and we are all from the Dragon Society! With Xanier being our Dragon Head, and the 4 Dragon's wives infront and the Dragon children at the back!

Soon, we proceeded to rock climbing! Instructor teaching us how to wear the harness!

The process of me climbing up!

After lunch, we still had activies! The Rat, Tiger and Elephant game! Polim was the one giving the signal of our names to represent the different animals and all of us had to do the same action to beat the opposite team! All of us doing the Tiger action except Chongsian! HAHA CAUGHT YA DOING THE WRONG ACTION!

Then, we proceed to Trust Fall game! Another instructor teaching us the techniques in which we must use to support our friend!

Us applying the techniques and deciding who to be positioned where to balance the weight of the fall!

US ready to receive Shunqing! Most of us were able to receive one another without any severe injuries!

After the Trust Fall activity, we proceeded to Jump across the board - high element activity! I managed to jump across the board without any injuries but i landed in a wrong way! I nearly drop off the plank as my hind leg did not manage to cross over! Luckily for me, I didn't drop off!

Group B and the Flag! The front 2, Edy and Yanmeng is my Group Leader and Assistant Group Leader!

A picture of us with the Instructors!

For dinner, we went to a restaurant recommanded by our Lecturers to try the Fish ball in China! Eshlyn and me!

13 of us waiting for our dinner after all the tiring activities!

Reflection ; While doing the Rock climbing, I tried the harder one first. The ones with lesser rock for you to grip and with more elevated out area! Once i reached halfway, fatigue overwhelm me and when i wanted to reach for another thing to grip, the thing is shaped in which there is no where for me to get a proper grip! and i slipped off. However, for the easier one, i tried twice! the feeling was like, once you reach certain point, you feel like aimming higher than before! Doing much more than you can was a great feeling because i manage to get pass the area in which i had difficulty on when i tried it at first. HAPPY TO THE MAX! <3!
