day 20

We learnt about PERT during Project management lessons which it is totally different from what I had learnt in year 1 QLA. About 5 formulas to remember and hopefully I can remember all by the time my exams come and not get mix up.
Not much of going out today as it rained the whole day. The temperature dropped to around 7 degrees and mist was coming out of our mouth as we speak. It is so true that the temperature here is really unpredictable.
I guess that’s the reason why when we wore shorts or t-shirt out (the shops just next to our hostel) when the temperature is around 15-20 degrees people start to stare at us. My friends and I had been asked by the locals quite a number of times “Won’t you feel cold wearing only these?” But of course we wear t-shirt or shorts when the weather is around 15-20 degrees which is like switching on air-con in Singapore. Well, I had to say that their way of lifestyle is totally different from ours.

After PM lessons, we went back to our hostel, rest and tidy up some paperwork (such as our assignments and settle our blogs). During dinner we went to the backstreet to the same shop which the China students had brought us on the first day. We order the fried tofu and shredded potato with meat and rice. The total bill is $20 Yuan for 3 people! So means each one around $6.80 Yuan which convert to sing dollars is only less than S$2! In the backstreet you can find cheap deals for food! If you eat this amount in Singapore it will cost you at least S$3. We were so bloated at the end of the meal that we can hardly even walk properly.

After: (we really had big appetite!)
