**Day 6**
The last of our holiday! Soon, we can say " Hello, Home!" We drove past Suzhou-Singapore industrial park. Sadly, a few of our friends were sick that day, including our group member, Deborah. She had a fever. Our teacher, Mrs Lai, said that she had to sweat. Therefore, we piled all our thick jackets on Deborah. Haha .. :) Soon, we arrived at the Golden Lake scenic spot. We took the jackets off Deborah to check if she did sweat as well as to see if she was well enough to get down the bus. Unfortunately, she did not sweat. And, she also did not feel well enough to get down to take pictures. But, some of us stayed in the bus with Deborah so she would not feel lonely. See how nice we are? xP Then, after taking terrific pictures of the Golden Lake scenic spot, we headed for Shanghai. Good bye, Suzhou! Hello, Shanghai! Upon arriving in Shanghai, we visited to the Oriental Pearl TV Tower, which is the highest tower in Asia and the 3rd highest in the world! Can you imagine how tall is it? We then took a group photo there. After lunch, we proceeded to the airport to return to Singapore!! But, before that, we bade good-bye to Annie. She was staying in China as her relatives were staying in Shanghai... :( So now, Singapore, here we come!!!!!!! After checking in, we went into the departure hall. We filled up a departure form and then went in. Before boarding the plane, we bought some souvenirs from some stalls. There were also some vending machines. Mrs Lai wanted to buy some coffee, but couldn't find the coin slot. Haha .. But eventually, she asked someone and found it. On the plane, there were many movies and games. Some of us played games, while the others watched some fascinating movies. About 5-6PM, the view outside the plane was this really nice sunset! It was breath-taking .. Watching the sunset from the plane. When we reached the Singapore airport, it was a nice reunion for all of us. Everyone of us was homesick, leaving our parents for a long trip for the first time in our lives. :P We also hope to go back to china again, but with better food!

**Day 4**
We went to Suzhou Foreign Language School today. Enjoyed the events there a lot. We had lots of fun jogging around the school that day. It was really a nice experience. Imagine jogging in the cold. We also studied Mathematics with the Suzhou pupils. Unfortunately, we did not really understand their lesson - and maths units (cm, m, ml etc.) - as it was in Chinese. After the maths lesson, we buddied up with the pupils there. Then, a Caucasion teacher gave us a task where we had to think of a story using the helping words she gave us. We went around helping the pupils think of a story. It was very fun!! =) We did embroidery after lunch. BUT, we did NOT manage to do calligraphy as there was not enough time. =( We went to the Master-of-the-Nets Garden where there are many of rocks structure and ancient furniture there. The scenery there was also very beautiful. The Silk Filature Mill was our next destination. Our tour guide, Emma, explained to us the process of silk-making and the types of cocoon there are. It was really very interesting. On the same day, we created a group called 'The Bananas'. We made a song for it too. =)
