Day 10 - More Lessons

Ready for Class
Waking up in the morning with no tasks is a boring one. I began doing my blog to prevent myself from falling back asleep. Over sleeping causes one to be tired for the rest of the day, and prolonged habit will make a person sleep up to 10 hours a day.



Lessons at 2pm
Walking up to the classroom is a good exercise for the day. The hectic journey keeps the blood flowing and mind sharp. Ready for lessons, we were equipped with tools such as Flexsim to carry out Business Process Engineering.



Liondog!
Searching for lunch, I was hunted down by a dog which looks like a lion! It is actually a hairy breed of dog which was shaved on its body to resemble a lion. The weather in Wuhan now is quite warm, and the dog should be able to withstand the temperature. But what if the temperature drops? The poor dog will be left shivering in cold. Some think the haircut on the dog makes it look cute, however, others think it is animal abuse. You decide.



Super Market
Nightfall came, and I wanted to buy some instant foods. Inside this building is a supermarket, but the exterior says otherwise. Most air-conditioned buildings in China uses plastic strip curtains to prevent cool air from escaping. However in my opinion, the curtains down grade the appearance of the structure. They should use air curtains instead (cool air blowing inward from above the exits).

REFLECTIONS

If we were not required to blog, there would be a lot of free time on our hands. There are pros and cons to it. However, this is an Immersion Program and not a holiday, so I would expect work to be given. Animals should be best put in their natural habitat if possible. However, household pets such as dogs should be given their due nature of having fur, and not shaving them to resemble another animal for amusement. If so, at least ensure that it has a comfortable environment, such as being kept in a warm place of the weather is too cold.

Singapore has set high standards for their super markets. They ensure that the overall appearance (exterior and interior) are sightly. Such as clean buildings, litter-free, welcoming entrance, and good customer service. Here in China, there is no customer service counter, and plastic bags are not provided after a purchase.


Beauty is unbearable, drives us to despair, offering us for a minute the plimpse of an eternity that we should like to stretch out over the whole of time.
