Start back at one

It seems surreal that i am so far away from home, and will be so for the next few months.So far, I'm surviving alright at Wuhan. School has started, albeit only 2 lessons. I wonder how i will survive but i think i have to make sure i do because i don't wanna be tortured by such crap stuff again back in sunny Singapore.

CCNU is situated at Wu Chang, which is known to be the cultural area of Wuhan. Shopping aint as colourful as Han Kou but i still managed to buy 4 bags, 3 tops and some stuffs within these few days.

For the uninitiated, Wu-Chang,Han-Yang and Han-kou are akin to Singapore's GRCs. Just that they only have 3 GRCs and one is already waaay bigger than Singapore's biggest GRC Jurong. But ya. China is huge, the walk from my hostel to classroom is me walking from home to Tiong Bahru Market.

Traffic is insane because they literally LOOOVE to horn for no apparent reason and have ZERO patience, zebra crossing and road lanes have NO USE. i nearly got hit by a idiotic scooter who did turn on his HEADLIGHT IN THE NIGHT.
I wonder, what is the rate of traffic accidents in China.
If their LTA were like Singapore, I think those blue boards that state "fatal/serious accident" will be EVERYWHERE.

Although i think my this trip is cursed, but i made a promise to myself to be optimistically happy in all shitty situations. So i have to stick with it. I do not want a suay cloud or a frown constantly following me.
I SHALL MAKE THE BEST OUT OF THE 4 MONTHS.
