Day 28 ; Start of Assignment 2
Monday, March 30, 2009


I basically stared blankly at the screen when Mr Wong explained to us what we need to do for Assignment 2. I felt quite lost on what we were supposed to do and so, after he has explained to the class, Xinhui, Nadiyah and I went to ask him some questions to clear our doubts.

We then started a little on the assignment and did what we could. When our brain juice has ran out of ideas, we decided to go for dinner and have a look around for any interesting stuffs that we could buy. Hahaha.

Three girls and a guy. (:

We actually ended up buying some things unexpectedly. Hahaha.
In some shops, some of the shop owner or sales person may seem hostile and cold towards us. They may sometimes talk a little harsh and rude too. 

I remember during the City Tour, our tour guide actually mentioned that we should not get offended by the way they serve us because that is usually their communication style towards customers. Of course, sales person who work in shopping centers won't render that type of services because of the reputation that they have to uphold. However, no matter what communication style they have, we still have to respect it because it is their culture and thus, we should not be offended by it at all. (:


Xinhui actually wanted to throw away the bananas that we bought a few days ago because it looks rotten on the outside. I told her, why not we try to peel it first and see whether it is still edible or is it really rotten. If it is rotten, then we'll throw them away.

Luckily we didn't. (:

I ate this banana because it still looks good and edible. (:

Today is the start of the 5th week since we have been in Wuhan and we will be staying here for just another 2 weeks. I feel that time has passed so quickly such that all these will soon come to an end. The bananas have actually taught me an important lesson that we have always been talking about throughout our lives; we should not judge a book by its cover.

Although China has faced a crisis because of the melamine milk last year, it doesn't have to necessarily mean that China only produces goods which are of poor quality. There are alot more pleasant things that China has which we can embrace and look upon to. (:

the banana lesson. (:
