The Badminton Match
Day 8
My first overslept and I’m late for class in Wuhan.
It’s very common to see me late for 8:00 am class but it is rare to see me late for 10am class in Singapore.
All I could remember is I snoozed the alarm once and left it aside. Thanks to my laziness, my mobile phone is so dead now. But I’m still able to make my way to Xiujin-Bernice’s apartment for breakfast. Phew.
We are late for class as we were waiting for Yan kee. I heard that she is still feeling very unwell this morning. I hoped she is alright now.
As lesson ends early today, we walked further down the streets together with the CEE boys and REB girls. Most of them bought RAMILY burger-similar, which I dislike the filling. They tasted too salty!! I bought sausages from other stall opposite. I’m very disappointed with the taste. They are also too salty and the tang of curry flavor turned me off almost completely.
On our way back to hostel, I bought rice in bamboo since I always like food that is made of glutinous rice. The selling opened the bamboo and covered it with sugar after inserting the stick. It tasted better than the sausages.
We reached our hostel at 3pm. Before Baohui, Carmen and I able to start our assignment, Kiafu and Xiujin came up and tell us that they changed their plan and decided to start their badminton match now. We went to the badminton court after a short while.
Tiyong started the game with Kiafu first. The match is average. After Tiyong played several matches with our fish-eater king, Jianwen, Kiafu then told us that he is the 2nd best badminton player during the competition in Ngee Ann. I’m super impressed since I can’t handle sports well. Then Xiujin played with Jianwen. She played really well. When she rest and Jianwen continued to play with Tiyong, we started to give names for the CEE guys:
· Jianwen: Fish-eater king and badminton king
· Ti yong: Bullshit king
· Jiafu: Maggie King (he called the deliveryman before he got this nickname)
· Teck Chiong: ‘Dao’ king
· Weiyang: Google man
· Guanwee: Cameraman
We went back to our hostel to rest and bought our dinner which the CEE guys recommended. The fast food is delicious. I like the spicy chicken best because it is not deep fried and tasted spicy with some sweetness in it.
