I haven’t been blogging for a very long time. Have sort of forgot what I have done for the past few weeks.

For last week, 14th March to 16th March, I was away in Nanjing, for a high-end bath equipment. It was an enjoyable trip with my colleagues and boss. We had a lot of good food and nice massage. Thanks to my boss for giving me the opportunity to go for a work trip out of Shanghai. I hope to go for more of such work trips in future. The Nanjing people are nice people, even models are nice. The food is nice too. Everything about this place is quite nice. No time to travel but the work experience there was good enough.



I made some mistakes in this event and I shall learn my mistake.

I think I really have a lot a lot to learn in this one year of internship. I really want to make the best out of this one year. I want to learn things fast. Hate it when I am a slow learner but I will put in a lot of effort to learn and excel.

Work so far for me has been fine. My company will be shifting to a new office soon in April. Hopefully, I can still walk to work, to save money and to exercise. The only exercise I do is to walk walk walk.

I want to do a lot of things here in China. 1) do well in my work and learn a lot. 2) learn from the modules in Fudan 3) I want to travel a lot 4) do social work, community work in China 4) I want to pick up new skills. 5) Learn management 6) Be involved in SHEN.

Basically, this one year is a great learning journey for me. I hope I can find a lot of time for all these!

After Nanjing trip, I got to know a friend from Shanghai, who was the emcee for the event. I went out shopping with her. Nice girl. I hope to make more friends, of different nationalities here in China.

My housemates and I should be going to Xitang and maybe another place, water towns this weekend. I want to travel a lot in my free time.

Really miss Singapore. My family, bf and friends and their company.
One of the skills I really need to learn is to be independent and go out on my own, be at ease at enjoying time by myself. Afterall, this is a good time for self development and self discovery.

Weekends







Weekends are the best.
Sleep late, wake up late, no worries, no stress.
Just chill around and explore the rest of Shanghai.

Sharon and I didnt wake up early and we met Kaiyin, Henghui and Shane alittle late.
We didnt get to view Sun Zhong Shan exhibition but took pictures outside.
With our student cards in future, we will be able to enter at a cheaper price, instead of 20RMB.
Nevertheless, the walk along the street to the Sun Zhong Shan's villa was nice.
The street is filled with nice houses.

Then, we walked to Xintiandi. Finally, I went there. Wanted to go there in 2005 but didnt get to go. Xintiandi is like ClarkQuay, Boatquay, Far East Square. Filled with nice cafes, bars and restaurants. One day, I will like to go there to chill and reward myself a little.

Dinner was at Seraliya, a Italian- look-alike restarant. Food was nice. company was nice. Price was reasonable. But queue time was unreasonable. Waited for about an hour to get in.

Had to crawl out of bed early this morning to go to Fudan to matriculate and register for modules. Very gloomy day. Heavy rain, strong wind, wet, soaked feets. Saw many international students there. Was a little worried that I may not be able to finish my course on time when I get back to Singapore. I need to do some mapping properly before I mess out my last year in NUS next year. Sigh.sigh.sigh.sigh.sigh. Intend to take about 3 modules if possible. Hope I can take social work modules and China's economy in Fudan since Geography is not offered in Fudan at all. I miss Geography modules, Human Geography. Hope the modules will be very fulfilling and interesting.

I have been eating alot alot. Feels hungry very often.

Today is the last day of Chinese New Year. Fireworks are everywhere now. Shanghai is like a warzone now. But I love it.
