I woke up late as I slept late yesterday night; I opened the parcel that my friend sent me after allowing to do so. I had a feeling that it is coming, indeed, a surprise from them. Nice belt but I don’t think that I will wear that; I will keep that and I will remember for life.
Something from them..
“Thanks brothers!”
I went out to meet Qing Yang and went to shopping again.
These are the things that i bought for myself
Quite a lot of tasks lined up for me, I got a hard time in setting the Chinese characters. However, my colleague managed to help me solve the problem. I was mainly into uploading of drawings today. After work, we went to the event/talk that is being held for Singaporeans
This guy is great, Singapore Embassy to China
Someone great too
This guy is simply great
Q&A section; he answered all questions beautifully
That is me; not that great
What can I mentioned is that, the talk is more than just a talk. I somehow able to understand what am he trying to say and the most importantly is that I did not doze off at all because it was really a meaningful talk. I could say that I learnt quite a lot of aspects from him. There is a light buffet after the talk, we went for it. There are a lot of Singapore delicacies which I missed them a lot. However, the most important thing is that this is a healthy socialization. We get to know a lot of people out of this.
Words can't describe what I learnt from this talk, however,
"Grades are important but your relationship among others in more important"
Since I can't describe, I shall not say much.
Ask me, I can share with you too

Today is a long day for me again, doing the same things. I know that if stuffs don’t are not being done on that very day. Things will just being piled up, and therefore, you got to finish whatever task is being given to you ASAP. Hopefully, you are able to finish it on that very day that you are being given. I did not take any pictures from the room yesterday because I did not bring along my camera. I took some pictures today.
Here are some pictures of it
Whereas for dinner, we are going back to Xia Bu Xia Bu.
Time really flies when you are in working industry, I did not even notice that it is Wednesday already. I had a long day tonight, mainly giving the devices serial number. I was told that I will be in-charge of this from now on. However, I did not have that much time to do because I got to help to move beds and help to get those bed sheets, pillows, etc. It is because our PM decided to rent the room beside us instead of renting an apartment outside. The apartment that we went yesterday was not bad. The rent is RMB¥3400 per month; I think it is okay, as it is habitable. However, our PM in the end rent the room beside and the rent is RMB¥2600. Even though you are able to make the room span and clean. There is nowhere for you to bathe, that is not for me because our hostel is walk able distance from here. Life is not easy over here.
I went to work as normal but I was told to photocopy two boxes of papers which eventually took the whole of my morning and afternoon. The admin clerk and I went to see apartment for those people who is working Over Time (OT). Afterwards, we went to main office to collect things and to pass things. After everything, our PM rent the room besides us instead. However, I don’t think that I will be able to stay there because my hostel is walking distance from here.
Today is 20th of June, my sister birthday. I cannot celebrate with her as I am not in Singapore. Thus, I wish her happy birthday over here because she will come to my blog. I went to work as normal. Those AI that I did earlier on, I got to organize it orderly. Rest of the time, I continue in drawing the legend.
Today is a busy day for me, I came to work as normal however, I was told to go to main office to send the scanner for service. Something came across my mind as our company got their own thumb drive which is practical as I can bring back to Singapore and I also can have that for souvenir. However, I was told that it was limited edition; it went dead stock long time ago. I did a lot of things today, bringing scanner to main office, help to bring money claims to office, bring documents back and I went to print and have the company seal. However, I think all of these could not be written in logbook. I had lunch with Yan Yu and Zi Liang at Sakae Sushi.
When I return back to my office, I got tons of things piled up for me to do. I got quite a lot of things to photocopy and to be given out. Which occupied whole of my late afternoon, however, I still got upcoming task yet to finish. Documents that needed to be sign and I been given a new task, I was told to draw legends. I think this is the first time that I am going to really draw some AutoCAD drawings. He told me that it is not urgent but I hope I can finish it ASAP because my task will just keep piling up.
I look forward to today because we are going to treat Mr. Ong dinner as he treated us before. Moreover, we are going back to his apartment. However, this time round, we are going there with the correct attire. We are going for the gym, sauna, Jacuzzi and maybe snooker. I did normal job as before but I was told to edit the tabulation that we did earlier on.
We played pool after Jacuzzi, etc
We are ought to take some pictures with Mr. Ong
I did not do anything much today. It is just a normal working day; I have not been given any task as quite a lot of my colleague is not in office. They brought back a cat from outside; it is rather big yet adorable.
They are enjoying
Like Garfield
I did not do any much AutoCAD or Excel because I was busy with the distribution of the drawings for almost the whole day. As I got to run up and down for distributing, thus, today ends quickly. I went home after work to have my dinner, after dinner, we had a game of mahjong. We have not played since a long time; we play the usual rules just that short of 4 animals (4 Tai). Moreover, we are using China currency. In the end, I won RMB¥1.20 which is equals to SDG$0.20+ when we spent around 3 hours for it. I coughs so badly until I am not able to sleep and Yan Yu gave me this bitter Chinese medicine before I can go back and sleep soundly.
It is the green colour packet; rather effective
We did not go anywhere until afternoon, we went to catch a movie in their “town”. Before that, we got to top up the prepaid card for our electricity. When I was walking the streets with them, I was told to have a photo shoot on what I am wearing. Never in my life I been approached that way, I was a bit shocked too because what I wore is very common in Singapore. Moreover, when I told my sister this, my sister says that this might be some scam. I was thinking, what they can do with my pictures. We went to their famous food street to have dinner before heading home.
I came to work as normal, doing the same routine. However, I think that they working on Saturday are rather less tense compared when working during weekdays. Whereas for me, I did the same routine; photocopying, etc. I been given a set of new (AI) although I finished yesterday’s.
The preparation of distributing of blueprints/drawings is finally done as I already got the respective authorities to sign. After finish compiling all the supporting documents, I distribute all of it to respective company. Later on, I was told to find out the increased devices which needs additional of wires, etc. They call it Architectural Instruction (AI), I need to look through all the drawings that are being given, to find out which is being added.
However, I did not ask why it is being added, they say it is too difficult to understand why there is a need for adding. After work, we went to meet Mr. Ong; he was used to be our teacher in Temasek Polytechnic. We had our dinner with him and went to see his service apartment.
The service apartment over here is very identical to our condo.
We went to the club house over there; we were chit-chatting.
Saw another person in the picture?
We forget to take picture with him, thus, I use this snap-shot instead
I went to check out their gym, jacuzzi, sauna.
It was great.
This is the Jacuzzi as we did not bring any extra attire. We only managed to soak our legs in
We are only able to see, cannot enjoy!
What are you looking at?
I think this shirt is a must buy
I bought this because its colours attracts me
We came to work but this time round, I am sitting at Qing Yang’s seat and he is sitting at the temporary seat. One of the staff came but another did not turn up at all. He is not coming at all which means Qing Yang is not going to another project. We are given a new task, to tabulate out all those 10 different systems in terms of different stories. Since it is sort of same as our very first worksheet that we did, we only copy from there but we need to do a double check as well. Although it is somehow similar, this is much less tedious than those previous charts. I am very happy as the “China.net” as already unblocks blogspot.com. It seems almost a month before it was being blocked.
Our work is as normal, doing the normal routine as usual. Nothing special happened. As my B1 is finally finishing, we had an Overtime (OT). This post will be quite short as I wrote this after two days past, I just somehow forget about what exactly happened. A good news is that, our air-conditioner has finally arrived and being installed on the spot.
We are all being forced out
