I just started compiling our Peranakan Culture slides for Thursday's presentation. (:

This wasn't what we initiated to do actually. We wanted to do on student's lifestyle in Singapore. However, it is a topic that the LSCT students have already prepared. Thus, we decided to do on Peranakan instead. It is actually a learning in disguise because I never really knew about Peranakan even though I only know that it is a mixture of the Chinese and Malay culture.

Mengzhen's group and my group combined efforts to do on this topic. Honestly, we only started on it this week because there were change of plans in the itinerary of the presentation. We are almost there and I believe we will do a good job on Thursday. (:

Peranakan is one of the ethnic groups in Singapore under the category of others which is only 1.4%. In Singapore, we only have 3 main ethnic groups that is Chinese, Malays and Indian. However, in China, there are 56 ethnic groups! That is really alot as compared to Singapore. The muslims in China are called Hui People and they are one of the largest ethnic minorities here. (:

I'm glad they are around or else Nadiyah and I may have big problems finding food over here. Hahaha.

Today is our last practical lesson on Flexsim. We need to brush up our skills on it so that we are able to do the test tomorrow. Hahaha. Actually, for the past few lessons, we were not able to get same answers because of some wrong input of information. Hopefully, everything will go well tomorrow. (:

We saw something unique today after dinner.

Its called the Flying Lanterns which is also known as Sky Lanterns. (:

I couldn't manage to capture a nice picture of it because by the time we realise it, it was already so high up in the sky. ):

I have never seen this in Singapore before though. 

It is actually a traditional Chinese communication tool that is invented thousands of years ago  for military signalling purposes. However, it became a popular feature in some of the Chinese festivals. People would write down their wishes on the paper surface of the lanterns and lit it up to let it fly. It is believed that the laterns would bring the wishes to Heaven where it will come true. The higher it flies, the more likely Heaven is to hear their prayers. (:
