My topic on photo essay is on buildings.
Photo essay is a photo with text describing the photo.

The first photo. This is the photo we took at the GuangDong airport, the design of the buildings is quite unique, it is like many airport have many different design. in singapore the airport there also have unique design. The whole airport is very packed with people, then there is also quite alot of tourist around there. but mostly is the local. More about the building, it is very nice and inside is very warm.

The first building that we saw after we arrived at the school, the building was quite big in size, but don't really look develop in anyway, just some typical old buildings, but quite cool. the colour quite retro, maybe they should repaint it to bright colours. the stairs infront of the buildings is also very old. the whole buildings is old and behind of the building there are lots of cracked area and they just typically use cement to ment it.


This is the building that we study at for our core module. it is quite old and raggy, it is like it will break down easily. the painting of the building is like dropping off alot. and then there is crack everywhere.


The inside of the school building, there is lots of flag hanging on top of the ground floor. then we observe that the china flag is hanged every 2 flag. example singapore flag, malaysia flag then china flag, indonesia flag, vietnam flag then china flag again. the ground floor have a table tennis table and a few tables and chairs. quite cool. then there is one stage at there. most of the people in this building understand simple english. because they study english here. then the building is very old because all the railing got rust and then the toilet here is all very smelly, no toilet paper, then the door is also very low, if i stand up almost half of my body can be seen.



Now coming to Lu Xiang. this is taken at Lu xiang, basement. there is lots of banner hanging there, the malls is quite big, or should i say very big, it is like more bigger than vivo city. but then the toilet here is hard to find, i don't know where to find toilet, there is lot of shop selling the same things. Lu Xiang is quite develop for a malls in Wuhan.



This building is a building outside Lu Xiang, it attract my attention because the overall appearance look like our singapore durian, esplanade. then there is some words in red colour in the middle of the building, it is cool. and nice also. i think when it is at night it should be very nice.



This is also some high rise building that i had seen in wuhan, quite cool. this is like so nice to see something farmilar. because singapore is filled with high rise building, when i see something that look like singapore, i might miss home.


This is some of the building that we saw it around the school zone, it is like very old building then the inside if the building is also very old with old furniture and stuff. it is available for people to stay in it, but i think no one is going stay inside for it is too scary. and there is two hut which is toilet, infront of these building.



These two hut are the toilet that are found in front of the building. outside of the hut look like some sort of mogolian house. inside of the hut is toilet and the toilet is very dirty and then the watere tap also spoilt. the door of the toilet is also very low. and then the window can be see to the inside of the toilet.


This is the yellow crane tower on fourth day of the trip. the tower is very tall, then the tower is very big, and many people were visiting the tower at that time. the people there include local and tourist. the yellow crane tower is the building that represent Wuhan.


The entrance of the yellow crane tower, there is ticket collector at there. the entrance look like those ancient shelter, it is quite cool to see such building as in singapore , you can only see such shelter on television.


The overview from the top of the yellow crane tower, we took these photo at the highest level of the tower. the view is magnificent and beautiful. the building there is all old old one. then there is only some high rise building at there. the wind there also very big and cold.


This place is at the dong hu, it have some archery range that let people to play at there, the shelter look like want to fall down one. then the range is very small.



The building of the museum, looks cool and big, it is very big and spacious. they have a typical kind of rooftop, but i think this building is consider quite grand already as compared to other buildings.

Day35
Counting down. 7 more days to get back to Singapore. the weather here is almost the same as Singapore already, it is getting warmer and warmer. today all of us woke up late, we woke up at about 7.50am, then all go into the toilet brush teeth, four people in the toilet brush teeth, then all of us was late for the activities. we quickly finished up our washing up and then go to the place located at outside our school, about 100 to 300 m walk from the mini mart. when we reach there, we still need to wait for more people to come because our group der people some still not yet there. we sit down at the area there and then wait for about 20 mins then all of the people reach here and then they started with some games, the games quite childish, very lame. after the games, the other group of people from NP der come and join us for the game. then we go on to start the activties, we make a group and then create group name and group logo. after thinking of all the name and logo, we finally choose Afro because our group got 3 curly hair guy. haha. and then 2 of them is they went to perm their hair. so cool lar. then the logo is our group captain face, damn cool. then we sign on the flag and our flag is ready. oh and we think of a cheer, the cheer is very nice, think by a girl in the other group, but heard that it is either NPCC or NCC cheers. quite cool lar. after that we cheer then talk about our flag, our captain damn funny, because his chinese not very good but then he still use chinese to explain the flag thing, then we laugh until peng. after that we were given 32 pieces of newspaper. these newspaper are to make into a big wheel which must be able to restand all the group mate weight and then we are to stand inside the wheel and march forward just like the tank wheel. so we try lots of methods of making and finally, we finalise with making the wheel by poking holes and use newspaper to make the rope and tie two newspaper together, this is a very good idea, i forgot who think of this idea already, but its cool. Finally the times is up but we still not ready, we still haven combine the head and the tail together, and then we spend like 1 to 2 mins tie-ing together and then we take our wheel to the competition area and place it in the start line, starting of the race, we are leading because many of the group wheel break and then our wheel also break after walking a distance, then we repair quite long before we go on, in the end the other group got number 1 and we got number 2, i think is quite good already. Number 2 is also good!!.

Lunch time, at about 11.20am, we went to have our lunch. we all was discussing where to have our lunch at. then in the end the conclusion is we go separate ways, 3 of us go KFC while the others go restaurant to have lunch, then after finishing our kfc meals, we went back to the place and many of the people are sick, so they did not went for the afternoon activities. we went to have our first afternoon activities, first is the trusting game, one person stand on a stand which is 1.5m high then his hand and leg are tied together then free fall from the back and then on the ground there is a few group of people catching the person, which mean the person on top must have absolute trust with the person below, so it is called a trusting game. i didn'y landed properly, if i land properly, the sound should be very nice. Next station, we do is the high element station. what you have to do is to climp up to about 8m high then walk on the board and jump over another board, these two board have a gap of 1.2m in the middle. normally guys have to just stretch their legs and they would be able to go over. after that we got to get down not be climbing but by free fall-ing. damn shiok. i think i complete the whole station quite fast. Finally the last station, rock climbing is cool. but too bad i didn't get to the top, i only go about 4/5 of the whole thing. if i use my force i might be able to climb the thing. that is the end of the activities.
