Day 1, 2, 3

Hello all! This is Hwai Yi posting yea. Its our 3rd day in beijing and the weather here is perfect. Much cooler than Singapore and more comfortable! Here is my personal posts daily so that you can liao jie qing kuang. If you have been to my blog, you all should have already seen these. ^^ Do enjoy and will bring you more updates tomorrow. Reporting from Beijing, Lim Hwai Yi bao dao ;D

Woke up 0515am in the morning, showered and washed up, all ready to go. My baggage was not that big or bulky so it just went fine. Arrived at the airport at around 0650, a little late though however was still in time. Punctuality should always be practiced at all times so as not to delay the whole crowd waiting for just one person. It is at least better to be early than to be late. Therefore, we should make it a habit to be punctual at all times. This is my first learning point this morning.

Took off at about 0850 local time and overall the flight was smooth and peaceful. Unfortuntely, we had a little issue here. Pei Si accidentally lost her mobile phone. Here, there is also another learning point to take note. When travelling, be sure to have all personal belongings properly kept and be sure that it is in a safe place. The world is so big, who knows where to start finding when you loose something. So what I have known, when travelling, do remember to guard your belongings properly.

Safely landed at around 1850 local time and waited a long long time before we could clear the immigration. This puts our paitience to a test. We have to wait paitiently for our turn before being released. This is a process everybody has to go through when you travel overseas. Therefore, we have to be patient and wait for our turn before acheiving what you want.

I have also noticed when we were queuing up to clear the customs, most of us started taking off their winter jackets. We were told to put it on before we get out to the baggage claim so that we would not look flustered. Indeed this is true. The advice from our teachers, we should all take it into consideration. How hot can it be? If we learn how to bear with it for a little while, this shows that you are fit and "well trained" to go overseas. Another lesson to take into consideration.

Departed from the airport at 1830, and headed on the express way ( guo men di yi lu 1992-1993 built to welcome guest for the 2008 Beijing Olympics) There was a little welcome ceromony for us when we arrived at Beijing 54 Middle School at 1850. Such warm welcomes from our friends and teachers from Beijing 54 Middle School left us all excited and all filled with anticipation. This kind of welcome is really hard to get these days. So therefore, we should treasure the days we have together and spend it fruitfully.

With the details of today's lessons learnt and happenings, I send my regards to my friends in Singapore!

This is a piece of reflection i had to do. I was too lazy to write it in hand, so i decided to type it out hehehe... Anyway, here are some information about Beijing. I took down some notes when the tour guild gave us a short introduction of Beijing. Hope I got it all right.

Beijing has 853 years of history.

Our objective of coming here is to look back 500 years from now and now till the future. Lesson time!!! (gu du vs xian dai)

6 chao zi dong

6 main places of intrests in Beijing which includes Great Wall, Summer Palace deng deng.

Food Speaciality: Pekking Duck

How BIG is Beijing: 1 wan 86_ _ sq metres

Beijing is in a form of square. ( dong, nan, xi, bei)

National Flower: Mu Dan Flower (fu gui zhi hua)

Beijing mascots ( why there are 5?) It represents the 5 elements on earth. ( Jing, Mu, Shui, Huo, Tu) The colours are all stated in the Beijing Olympic Mascots. ( It is a fengshui tradition)

Chairman Mao once said: Bu Deng Chang Chen Fei Hao Han

China's Emperor's favourite number: 9

The 2008 Beijing Olympics will commence on 8th of August 2008, 20:08(8:08pm) (8 represents FA!)

China's 4 main capital city:
Beijing
Tian Jing
Shanghai
Chong Qing

No building in beijing should be built higher than Gu Gong if not it will be against the law and the charge will be chopping off of the head.

Now we are in the Chao Yang Qu of Beijing. ( It's a fast moving place)

For a city to be glorious, there should be many bridges (way of transport) (Did you know that China has the most number of bridges in the world? Now you know)

September - October : nice time to come to Beijing as this is the best season. Worldwide meetings are carried out in this season as the weather is cool and fine. Also known as the harvest season as crops are ready to be harvested.

November onwards : Temperatures can reach down to -22 degrees. Chilly winter.
Day 2
Saturday
03 November 2007
Weather: Fine

Today is my second official day in beijing! Today went to two different places, Yi He Yuan and Yuan Ming Yuan. Really majestic places especially for the latter. Yi He Yuan also known as summer palace, is basically a chinese garden situated in the outskirts of beijing. The emperor' s house is there too. There are alot of bridges and hills weaving around a lake. This lake takes a special shape. It has the shape of the map of China, as said to be shaped like a bird's wing. Truely a remarkable landmark which marks its history of very long time ago.

Yuan Ming Yuan is another park with a ancient relic site next to it. The site was invaded by the French and English men in the 1860s in early October ( the whole process of destroying the site was from October 6th till October 19th) The site marks a certain value of china's history as many important articles and treasure was stored at yuan ming yuan. The whole place was thorn down and burnt down by the French and English and only little bits of stone rubble was left. After destroying the place, the invaders left. This is a really cruel way to deal with what they cannot acheive. It is not fair and unjust to tear down property that does not belong to them.Many precious articles up till now have not been recovered as the english soldiers stole them and distributed it world wide. Some have even been smashed into pieces. The area of fountains and pools are now left with large chunks of rocks and stones. Really a true and magnificient place.

This marks the end of today's entry. My legs are all aching now as we walked a lot today. We walked round the whole yi he yuan (round the lake) and walk even more at yuan ming yuan. Tomorrow will be shopping spree and kboxing day. Today was history, tomorrow is now. Oldern vs Modern.

I saw the bird's nest too today when we were on the way to yi he yuan. The official 2008 Beijing Olympic Stadium. It is really a huge site and it will be worked to full force in 2008.

Coundown to 2008 Beijing Olympics: 279 Days from today

New Facts I have learnt about China/Beijing:

There are a total of 88 bridges in Beijing.

The lake at yi he yuan takes the shape of China's map.

Day 3
Sunday
4th November 2007
Weather: Fine

Writing in again today. Today is shopping day! I went with a few people to few shopping areas in beijing. I bought a few things including a pair of black gloves which cost me 20 rmb (S$4) and two real adidas jackets 750 rmb in total (S$70 for one and S$80 got another) Pretty cheap though as you cant get this sort of prices in singapore. They are all brand new and are pretty nice in design. Both of the jackets are black and white. One special thing about the second one is that it is a limited edition version and the more special thing is that one side of its sleave is black and the other is white. It is really very cool!

We went to places like xi dan, xiu shui jie and shang pin zhe kou. I also took the Beijing Subway for the very first time. Technology has really changed the world. It is something very much like Singapore's MRT however, the inside of the train is much more high tech than those of singapore's. There is a automatic machine that will give directions and instructions when you board the train.

At Xu Shui Jie, I bought a pair of gloves. My previous pair of gloves that I brought was a little too thick, so it might not be too comfortable when carrying things. Its original price was 120 rmb but after MaTeng bargained, we got it down to 20 rmb. Considered quite a good deal. See, this is the art of bargaining.

At around 5pm, we joined Samuel, Wan Teng, Yan Fu and Kah Fong at a KTV. It is not really a KTV, something like KBOX in Singapore. The 3hour package counts down to only S$5 with free buffet and free flow of drinks. The room is much bigger and comfortable, with a large plasma screen. There is also a service men at each room. What a wonderful experience!

That's it for today. Will be in school the whole day to "shang ke"! Hope I can learn new and more things tomorrow!

x33 and missed!
