day fourteen has arrived
and it is a day of lessons again
from 10am to 12pm and from 2pm to 4pm
Complementary Traditional Chinese Medicine lectures with our dear Dr Tan (:
Nothing much to blog about
hence my reflection of today will be on one observation I had about the students of Wuhan University.
Maybe because Wuhan is a hot weathered place, the students tend to use umbrellas when travel from just one place in the University to another, especially the females. Furthermore, since umbrellas tend to be used among the students, it seems to be one of the fashions in Wuhan as there are many designs of umbrellas can be seen. Plus I had heard conversations on umbrellas among the female students, where one of them said she saw this very nice umbrella and she wanted to get it but did not at the end as the design is weird because the inside and outside of the umbrella is not really matching.
Such umbrellas are not that common in Singapore or maybe more like I did not see before, though Singapore is a hot weathered country. Plus umbrellas in Singapore are very simple, even if there is patterns on it, is those simple kinds, not as flowery, lacey or beautifully designed or coloured as Wuhan's. Thus, umbrellas is not really considered a fashion item in Singapore unlike here in Wuhan, where you get to see the different coloured and patterned umbrellas.
