Monday
Since
both Huiting and I had nothing to do tonight, the both of us decided to do a
mini excavation. From yesterday’s trip to the Jinsha Site Museum, Huiting
bought an excavation set which basically is a white block which is pretty much
brittle and a mask is hidden inside of it. So our job was to excavate it slowly
with the tools provided for us. It was a really entertaining experience because
since from young, I had always wanted to do this kind of excavation activities
but it would only have to stay as a dream and wishful thinking of mine. It was
a long and tiring repetitious task but at the end when we finally got to
unravel the mask from the block of the hardened white sands, satisfaction and
happiness began to kick in.
Also,
I have realized that the campus has a certain ‘alarm’ being set every single
day. One was in the morning at 7am, then during lunch time at around 12pm and
lastly in the evening at around 4 or 5pm. They would usually play a song for
quite a while or broadcasts a local ‘radio’ slots that would sometimes play English
songs in the afternoons and evenings. Personally, I feel like this university is
like a military campus since there are so much ‘alarms’ being set in the campus
for the students here. Unlike back in Singapore at Ngee Ann Polytechnic, there
is hardly any school bell or alarm and the only place where we could listen to
the local radio broadcast is at the Atrium from 1pm until 5 or 6pm without
fail. But however one thing that I found in common between the two is that
there are not much people who are interested to hear such radio broadcasts. In all
I think that the morning ‘alarm’ is really beneficial because I would always
use it as a guide to what time it is and my wakeup call to get ready for
morning classes at 9am every time.
