WEEK 7 IN SHANGHAI

It’s finally the seventh week in Shanghai! How time flies~ I remember I used to hope for time to pass faster during the first week in Shanghai because I couldn’t get used to the weather, food, working life and everything. However, the next thing we know, it’s the seventh week! Working was quite tough in the beginning because I wasn’t able to express myself for all the IT technical terms in mandarin fluently. There was a lot of information about the systems Fedex is offering to its customers. Hence, I wasn’t able to absorb this information in a short time. However, as long as we preserve, everything will get better :)

We originally planned to go a park on Saturday! We heard from our colleague that the park is famous for it’s scenery and we can go there for relaxation after a hectic week of work. However, to our dismay, it was raining on Saturday. Hence, we had to stay in the hotel. We went to meet our colleagues around 4pm at supermarket for grocery shopping! We went over to her place and prepare our dinner. It has been awhile since we had home cooked meal after coming to Shanghai. In addition, the dishes were really yummy so I had 1 bowl of rice and 1 and a half bowl of noodle :D


It was raining on Sunday too :( We had Pizza Hut for dinner again because the standard of the pizza was really good as compared to Singapore. While we were waiting for the train to go home, we happened to see fireworks!! It seems like it's actually a common thing in China for someone to put fireworks... We were so excited when we see the fireworks, however, the locals over here treated it like it's nothing much. 

Since a picture is worth a thousand words... Here are some of the pictures taken over the week!
