Fourth day 

Having quiz after only a 30 minutes preparation... Got quite a few blanks on my answer sheets. Mr Chua say only a few people had passed the quiz.. Worried over it. Need to study more of APPG!!

 Knew that we will be having Mandarin class beforehand. Was thinking that it will be a very boring lesson. As in the past, all Mandarin lesson was just keep on doing composition and comprehension, which were very troublesome and boring. But this mandarin teacher is very good!! He totally changed my perspective of  Mandarin classes. He start with the lesson by seperating us into groups of three or four. After that, he let us watch a movie called "杜拉拉升职记" and giving each group a list of question that will be needed to answer after watching the part that the question asked. Every time when there is a answer needed or a part that is able to let you ponder about the meanings behind it, he will pause the show, explain to us about the meanings and giving us time to discuss in our group before answering his question. He is a very caring teacher, as he fear that we will not understand the things he saying, he requested for a few university students to help us with our languages. Hope that Singapore will have more Mandarin teachers like him, to be more caring and good at teaching.  Looking forward to his next lesson.

Completed artworks of us and the teachers

After the Mandarin lesson, we had a lesson with a famous paper cutting master which can be said to be china's NATIONAL TREASURE and also two of his students.  We were able to admire them doing their mastered skills like paper cutting, knot tying and Mandarin character drawing. It was totally amazing that the two students will able to not be affected by their disabilities and master the skills of their arts. This let me learn that with hardwork and determination, we will be able to excel no matter the hurdle.

Me falling asleep
