Tick-tock

Yet another weekend have gone by.
I must admit, compared to my life in SG, my weekends are really full. Two days of school and one Sunday spent at my Volunteer Teaching. Ironically, school will disrupt this pattern. Next week will be the last lesson at Fudan Uni cum end of program ceremony. Unluckily, it is set on SUNDAY. So I have to take a break from Ai Xin School next week. And I have exactly three weeks left in Shanghai. We are racing towards an accelerated countdown!
But enough about nostalgia. I have photos! Though they dun do justice to the cold. Fri and Sat was damn er xin with cold temp and strong winds. We saw our hands turn old right in front of us...the sensation...kind of like holding onto a lot of icecubes at once. Extremities went numb, even my toes. Guess boots are a good idea cos my converse don't cut it any more here. Fri lessons was calligraphy, sat was Movie + Excursion to XU Jia Hui. THe movie was damn long..I didn't get much of it initially. Excursion was pretty cool, as in I didn't know shanghai had historical sites, much less one that is like 500 years old. The house of Xus. But the cold wind spolit everything. -_- THere was also this nice Church we went to. =) Ppl there were anal abt photos, so i didn't take any inside.
Dinner ate at 'Zeng Gongfu', the Bruce Lee fast food. Not bad...a bit ex. But this session made my household realize...how SIAO weiqi is! haha. This crazy char bor, our Fudan monitor is totally spontaneous...she is like the self-entertainment express. We had a good abs workout laughing AT her. haha. Cute.
Sunday...after school at Ai Xin, went to Qi pu on my own. Realized how much faster you can spend money there on your own. Anyway, got the stuff ppl asked me to buy, save for Yiling. The best part is...ppl kept giving me weird looks when i buy handbags and other girly stuff...haiz...nvm today bought a 15 RMB polo tee. Spent a bomb, but I'm satisified.
Back to work tmr! IA report is going to be checked by my sup and I'll send it up. Yes!
The church...damn rustic and European. It is even better inside.
Fudan Classmates and Han lao shi.
This was supposed to be how the shot shld have looked like!

At the Xu Jia Hui (Tomb of Xu Jia Qi's Grandsons) But the focus is on the tree




Ppl walking up to the cross...Latin words are inscribed on it.




X'mas tree at Fudan!

Another one of Fudan's wonderful trees.






And there's the weeping willow (I was freezing when I took this shot)
