Today I had a full day of lessons. So tiring!
And the last lesson here ends at 810. To think i kept complaining when CS lessons end at 6. haha.
But my last lesson, forensic sci is the most interesting lesson man!
The teacher is also a really funny lady. But she doesnt try hard to be funny.
She's the kind that says her jokes in a straight face.

Anw let me enrich u guys with what i learnt today in forensic.
The teacher was explaining to us how to differentiate if the person hanged himself or he was killed before hanged.
Apparently, when a person hang himself, the blood will stop flowing. And because of gravity, the blood will accumulate at the tips of your limbs. So blue black will appear at the tips of the limbs for people who hang themselves.
However, if the person is killed 1st, the blue black will appear at different parts of the body depending on how the person is killed. For example, if the person is lying down, the blue black will appear on the back.
Then the teacher showed us this picture of this man who used a really unique and extreme method to commit suicide.
Anybody who knows how to swim will naturally swim when they are about to drown. And anybody who hang themselves will naturally want to pull the string away from the throat when they have lack of oxygen. Its all human reaction!
But this man who was so determined to die, twist and tightened a rope that was attached to a wooden plank, around his neck. To prevent the rope from loosening after he let go, he let the plank rest on a table so that the plank will not flip back the opposite direction. Crazy fella!

Oh and we also learnt that when a living person drown, foam will form at the nose and mouth for about 2-3 days. After which, the foam will disappear. But if the person is dead when thrown into water, there will not be any foam.
Okay there's still many interesting facts but i cant remember all and i'm too lazy to type everything down. BUt if there's a chance please take up forensic sci! haha.

Today i had another wonderful lunch with my fellow Singaporean friends.
We went to a Chinese restaurant at 步行街, ordered like 6 dishes.
And i thought they all tasted quite well. Most importantly, its only $3 sing! hahah..
i'm not complaining!

Me and my FUSSA friends at the chinese restaurant!


Oh, i forgot to mention, yesterday i went to this place called 新天地.
Its a really nice up scale place with all the posh restaurants and bars lining the streets.
The whole atmosphere there is really good.
Its abit like clarke quay, but i think the 情调 is better.
Good chill out place. Plus its not taxing on the wallet.
I had a meal that with only a slightly higher price than usual - $8 sing.


Another new addition of things i learn about China's culture today - why China people (okay maybe just Fudan local students) don't like to bath during cold weather.
According to my dearest Shuzhen, they don't really have a choice.
Because they don't get to enjoy the facilities that foreign students enjoy in their dorm!
All their dorms have no attached toilets to their room so they have to use common toilets.
And their common toilets are not like those we have in NTU where at least every levels have toilets. A few buildings act need to share a single toilet.
Everybody have to queue outside the toilet to bath. Plus they have to pay to bath! The water is timed as to how long they can use it!
Worse if its in this super duper cold weather where i freeze once i step out of my bedroom toilet. Imagine them out in the open! i really do pity them man..
Also, Shuzhen says that the oldest dorm in the school don't even have a heater in their room!
How to sleep like that??!!
