Another free & easy day for us! We were being informed by Mr Loh that our campus orientation tour was postponed to friday as the school staffs and students was not ready yet. Since we have the whole day to ourselves, all of us decided to head down to the city area and have a walk around. We took bus 903 and travelled for about 30mins to reach 步行街.Their bus system is really different from what we see back in Singapore. Instead of the using tapping of ez-link card, there is a bus conductor on board to collect the fare from you. I really take my hat off to the bus conductor, not only can she move around so easily in the fully packed bus but she can even memorise every single person who have not paid their fare. To think that we are still complaining about the buses in Singapore being fully packed all the time, the situation here is much more worse. People are even entering through the back door and squeezing with you even though it was already fully packed.
Breakfast at the campus canteen.
My breakfast! Cost me only 2.50Rmb ( S$0.50)
See how packed the bus is!!

Finally reached our destination!

Class J02!
Our place for lunch!
The variety of food found in the Macdonald here are about the same as does in Singapore. But they do have some special items that are not available in Singapore. Such as mango pie, yam pie, coke float and pork burger. One other thing that really surprised me was their good customer service. Just after we had settled down inside, the manager came forward to us and gave us the number for Mac delivery. She explained to us that she saw all of us had cameras with us, thus she thinks that we are all foreign students.
Pork Burger.
I'm Loving it. :D
Some abandoned car found in the shopping mall
Smelly Beancurd!
different food stalls + Erwin :P
After finishing our lunch, decided to head to the cinema to watch a movie. There wasn't any nice show available at that time so we decided to go to the arcade. The arcade here is much cheaper than Singapore. 1 token here cost only 0.50RMB(S$0.10)! Decided to change some money and have a go at the soft toy machine. Lady luck was on my side, I managed to catch 1 soft toy with my last try.
Inside the cinema
Timing of all the shows
Plushie machine!
The plushie i gotten! :D
I actually caught the green plushie which was what Erwin wanted, but after some negotiation I managed to trade my green plushie for my favorite yellow one with Daniel.

We met back at about 6pm together at the bus stop to take the bus back to campus. The traffic and crowd was terrible since it was the peak hour now.
The beautiful sunset!
The bus journey back was also very eventful, a passenger actually started shouting vuglarities at the driver just because the driver closed the door before he could alight the bus. Everyone of us in the bus was shocked and the whole bus went quiet. But when observing the other China people in the bus, they seems to be indifferent towards what had just happened.
After reaching back to campus, we had a small rest and after that we headed out to the night market stalls to have our dinner. The food there was cheap and nice, we even managed to see some fireworks while we were eating!
Dumplings! 6 for only 1Rmb!
BBQ Squid!
The vendors cooking our food!
Enjoying our food and posing for the camera! :D
