Another new day ooo heeheee!!!Today we had breakfast at macdonald china one meal is only about $3SGD god how cheap is this haha~we had a briefing in the morning with our tianjin's university correspondant madam kang and 2 other teachers they introduced us about tianjin university and also our learning schedule .The classroom we were allocated to study had its whiteboard drawn to a very beutiful welcome sign.we were also told that we will be partnered with a language partner which will be attached to us for the rest of the duration in tianjin university.
After lunch we went back to the same classroom and its TIME to meet our language partners !!!well as we know the very distinct akwardness everyone feldt when we are about to be attached to a person we have never met before.At first we were asked to choose our partners but the akwardness was too well its making everyone shy so we have to resort to the "pick a piece of paper with a name on it game". i was attached to a girl named sandy ,Naturely when the partner allocations are done we had a few mins with our language partners throught that few mins we introcudced ourslef and talk about ourselfs. our language partners also brought us around the university while sharing more about themselfs and in turn we disscussed many things that we singaporens do diffrent from them.
Near the end of the day we had dinner with a few of the other language partners as majority of ours including mine have other obligations.
Today the time i spent with my language partner have been very fruitful because we exchange many diffrent infromation about our lifestyle,she learnt more about how singaporeans think and in turn im able to understand their lifestyle in china which is very diffrent .I feel that this knowledge in time is able to be very helpful because as future engineers the market in china is huge being able to understand their mindset and lifestyle helps alot .
