Qing Yang and I went back to our initial project to take some photos before finding that the pet-owner. We tried to take as many as photos as possible because we would want to bring back more memories as we could. Lastly, we took pictures with the place that we stayed for nearly half a year. Time flies, the moment I was still bathing in that toilet, next moment, I find myself bathing at my home’s toilet. 5 months plus of attachment just gone in a flash, when came to think of it, I still misses it. Though initially, I find it tough to adapt or even live in such places, I yet to regret in coming here at all.
Here are some photos ;

Are we up to it?

This marks the end of my OSIP in Beijing,China. What I can say is that it is tough yet enjoyable and did not regret in coming at all because I really learnt a lot of things out of it.
THANK YOU TO TP AND CNA COMPANY
for giving us this once is a lifetime opporunity
PS: I afraid there will not be much updates
We went back to settle our Appraisal and testimonial, the company treat us lunch as a farewell as they can’t afford to have it at night. After spending almost whole day in company, settling things and taking photos, chit chat. We went off for free and easy, go to the last place that we wanted to go, buy the things that we wanted. For once, time seems not enough for me.
When back at home, we were all busy with packing with luggage, it is because that our entire luggages are overweight. So much for the formal stuffs, right now. I need few minutes to voice out how I feel towards this entire OSIP. However, I think I leave that when I safely reach Singapore because right now I am very concerned about my luggage weight.

Our last Saturday over here, thus, we ought to spend it wisely. Use the time to go to those places that we didn’t go in the first place or those place that we all along wanted to go. If we don’t grab this chance, we may never able to go in the near future.
We going 4 places in one day, discount shop, paper craft shop, world’s largest sports shop and a rather in-fashion place to meet my Beijing’s friend.
MESS, to meet up my friend
As he is kind of busy serving some important people, I didnt take pictures with him
Next Stop : Largest Adidas Store Worldwide
Not this, I just find it interesting and nice
This is IT
Nice?
If only I owns ALL these?

I took this picture
Every single bit of all these are going to be written as memories as I might not be coming back to Beijing anymore.
Who knows what will happen in the future; life is unpredictable.
What to do when this happens?
Panic then.
As we are leaving on 29th August, we requested off for the following week. It is because we need to settle quite a lot of things, writing of report, packing of luggage, etc. Thus, today will be my last day of work over here. Time flies, they seriously do. It has been 160 days up till today which means I have at least work 150 days over here. Things don’t go smoothly from the start; one needs to learn how to adapt in order to carry on with life. Life is full of ups and downs which is part and parcel of life. There are a lot of things that I wanted to write down to express how I feel all along. However, I will leave all later.
Nothing much happened in workplace as no task is being given.
Since they are assigned in testing the VGA, Audio, USB ports, etc, I tagged along. First few rooms, I was like only looking, can’t help much but after which, things got easy.
It is not difficult at all, it is just repeating procedure. The site visit was divided into two parts, early afternoon; we went to check USB ports and VGA.
This is the main thing
While in late afternoon, we went to check additional of AV and audio. Though it may sound nothing to you but it is something new for me and I like new things.
One way to get internet
So much of work..
Finally, our very last week is here, many thoughts filled my mind at once. I am leaving everything and back to reality soon. Work, we still got to report to the workplace as notice is not given for us to have a break or something. After a long day, the admin staff and I went back home. However, when on the way back home, we are stopped by some interviewers. They are from Japan, Fuji TV, they asked about how we feel about the Olympics. They asked whether we know that the girl was not actually her singing at all and about those 56 different races, they are not really from their races. Regardless of whether what they asked, I only know that this time round, China did a very good job, so far, everything is according to plan. At least, up till now, nothing goes wrong yet. Thus, they really put up a lot of effort. 7 years of preparation is only for the Olympics period of 17 days. I went home for dinner to end my day.
We went to search for the place that we saw on television, that place is good for giving friends, relatives for presents rather than just buying those foods. After buying it, I went to search for my duffel bag but in vain. I shall see whether I really need it at all before buying, however, the main thing that I want to think about it. It is where to have my hair cut. We had our dinner at “The Place” before heading back home. My legs are swollen are a day of walking.
I went back to work but still nothing much could be done. 2 days ago, we happened to meet project manager from another project. He told us to go to their site for sight-seeing which I am very interested about. As I don’t have many things to do right now, I can go for an eye-opener. Moreover, my project manager also agreed about it, thus, I think I am going next week. However, there is a bad news regarding about the company outing. We are not able to make it as they decide to have the outing on 29th August 2008 which is the exact date that we depart for Singapore. Though it maybe just an outing but it is the last gathering together with my colleague. Maybe next time when I come for Beijing, I will meet up with them but I hoped that when I returned, I will be a successful man by then.
We went for the Reception for our President, though it was a short one because he came was mainly to support on TEAM Singapore.
His Arrival
Taking Photo with Mr President is a MUST

Here are some random pictures of that place
A fine corner in the 5-stars hotel
We simply enjoyed ourselves though it is just healthy socializing and building “Human network”. Qing Yang met his long lost friend and we all managed to get around today, knowing each other and chat our heart out. The feeling was great because we are able to chat with some fellow Singaporeans, at that very moment, I don’t feel that I am in Beijing, feels like being at home. Nevertheless, I think it’s somehow due to some “Singlish” though everyone is trying to speak perfect English. I think that the overseas Singapore Portal has done a pretty good job by organizing all these, though we are quite young for these but I seriously think that I am going to get a lot of things out of these.
Our CEO thanks us for putting up a good job during our attachment period but I thanked him instead of giving us such chance to being exposed for such things. I don’t think I will have such chance back in Singapore.
