Today is our last Sunday over here, after today, we will only stay here up until this Friday. Our admin clerk actually invited Qing Yang and I to her house to have a lunch with her and her husband. We had a hard time in finding the way to her house, not in terms of direction but in terms of transport because her house is not located in the city area. At this point, I glad that Singapore is small and easy transport to almost everywhere. It is not some feast; it is just some home-cooked dishes. However, it is very tasty. I can boldly say that it is one the finest food I had here since I came. We sat down and have lunch together and chatted throughout. Some simple dishes yet tasty, we had a great time. After the heavy lunch, we watch the Olympics Basketball Final. The USA got the Gold medal which is somehow expected all along. Today is the end of the Olympics, 8th August 2008 – 24th August 2008, 16 days; 7 years of preparation. They came a hard way; it is not easy for them at all regardless of sharing their culture with others and opening their door to the world. I sincerely hope that this Olympics will change the view of others toward China and brings the world closer together as one. “One World, One dream” Indeed, simple words but tells it all.
