Participants' Journal Entries (4th June, Monday)

I am back to school today. I feel very sad and want to cry. :-(
I miss my buddy’s parents. I want to play with her younger sister again.

The seahorse soup that I drank was very sweet and fishy. It looked funny. I tried to drink without smelling the soup.

I went to Guangzhou for a tour today. It is about Chinese History and I like History. I took photographs of all the ancient antiques. They were so interesting and they must have cost a fortune! Wow! How I wish the curator will share more.

Today, I visited a museum and learnt a lot about Chinese history and culture. After that, we went shopping for an hour. It was quite a rush. Guess what? While shopping, we saw a little boy peeing in public. It was quite embarrassing.

It was fun learning about China in the museum. Most things were made of wood. How I love the woody smell! There is one special thing I learnt about the gigantic door. We are not supposed to step on the wooden platform at the doorway as this is disrespectful to the two Chinese Gods guarding it. This is interesting!

I love shopping! One hour is not enough. I'm going to ask my teacher to extend the shopping duration and take us to a place where we can bargain.

Today, the tour was amazing! Even though I did not bring a camera, I managed to draw the things that were nice in my sketchbook. As you know, I like to draw. When we went shopping, I bought something for my sister. After that, Miss Hing bought us ice cream. Cool! But when our teammates, the girls, kept shopping, we boys almost died. Hmmm… why do girls like shopping?
