Day 01

On the first day, I arrived at the airport around 4.50am. I couldn’t sleep the night before because I was too excited and as a result I reached airport early. I waited at the airport for my friends and the teachers to come. When they reached airport, the teachers ask us to collect our passport and air ticket. We waited at the departure hall there, thus I waited for the time to reach. Later, we went to check in our luggage, took our passport and hand-carried bag to the entrance of the departure hall. We walked around in the airport to wait to onboard the plane. We went to the staff canteen to have our breakfast, and bid goodbye to my parents and friends. After that we walk a long way, before we eventually board the plane, the plane is quite small. It is like smaller by 2 or 3 times than the SIA, the space is also small, therefore when I sleep my elbow will hit the person next to me. The food there is not delicious, I only ate the noodle and the bread, and the 2 side dishes are cold and sour. After about 4 hours later, we reached Guangzhou airport, it is about 12 to 13 degrees. It is even colder than our Singapore air-conditioner, we then walk around Guangzhou airport, and went down to have a quick lunch, we ate dian sim. It is expensive and is even more expensive than Singapore dian sim. I ate a little bit and we went to board the plane, the plane is almost the same as the plane from we took from Singapore to Guangzhou. After about 1 hour 30 minutes, we reached the place. It is so cold, around 6 degree only. We then went to the arrival hall and waited for all the people to gather there. The person led us to the bus, the place is, ‘very cold, super cold’, as a result we can even blow smoke out. My friend all at there got bring glove, however I did not bring, I “emo”. We walked all the way to the bus which will bring us to the school. We put our luggage into the luggage door, and board the bus. The bus is filled with peoples and luggage because the store luggage place do not have enough space, that why the luggage is being place on the bus. We take about almost 1 hour 30 minutes to reach the school. The driver unload our luggage one by one. Mr.Chua and Mr.Ma brief us awhile and then let us go up to find our room, our room is big and look like a flat with 4 rooms, there is even television in the living room. My room is quite big, it has two bed, one table and wardrobe. Overall it is quite cosy and nice, I was freezing so I tried to on the heater to make myself warm. My roommate, Nicholas is also very cold, then we try all ways to on the heater but cannot. Therefore we borrow the controller from our neighbour, arvind and finally we can on it. After awhile I went down to collect my luggage and bring it up to my room. The first thing we do is that we on our laptop and tried to access the internet to contact our parents, but we cannot access into the internet, I also don’t know why. Then I suggest that we should just sleep early and tomorrow ask teacher what to do. We wash up and then we went to bed.
