Yesterday was the last day with the family.

Today morning we wave goodbye to them and left. I really miss them alot. In school, we had our performance and i was sad to leave my friends. Some of them cried which made me feel like crying too. I left my contact number and email with them. They took some photos with me. The students send us off and we were so touched. I miss them alot and hope that i would not leave. We left the school and went to live in the hotel. I would stayed in touch with them and would not forget the fun times we had together. Hope tomorrow would be a better day for all of us! =]

Wake up early in the morning and went to school. We got science and technology in the morning. We learned how to build robot and how to programme it. Although it was difficult, we managed to finish it. We got olympic maths after that. The students were fast in answering the question and they got it all correct. Pe Time! We played a game which we never ever play before. The teacher told us the rules and we had a fun time playing it. After that, we celebrate Cheng Ling's birthday with the students over there. Art, we were separated into three groups. I went for the calligraphy. It was the first time and it was so exciting to me.
