OELP: Day 0 (Shanghai)

Finally, we're in China~~! Follow us as we recount our experiences and feelings during the trip! ;)

Schedule:
-Flight to Shanghai (WHOOTS!)
-Check in at Yitel


Constance:
After a long flight, we have finally reached China. It didn't really feel like China though, there didn't seem to be much difference, especially with the humid weather. We got to meet our guide, 米导,who would be with us for this 8 long days, or so it seems. She had already left us a great impression with the delicious burgers she had bought for us. Soon, we reached the hotel, getting to sleep as soon as we were done.

After the first talk about the oelp In the first few months of 2014, I was always looking forward to the trip and every second that past felt like it was a second closer to the trip . Since young , I've been to many many trips overseas with my family , but never have I gone on a trip with my friends and what more now been my whole entire class (excluding one ._. ) Futhermore, this trip wasn't to our neighboring countires like Malaysia or Indonesia , this trip was to China, Shanghai and Suzhou. We couldn't have gone on bus just like if we go to Malaysia , neither was it an hour or two hours plane ride. This trip to China was nearly 5 to 6 long hours on the plane . The semester was finally over and it was time for us to finally relax after 6 months of test after test , studying after studying. That day, I woke up at 6am in the morning without the use of an alarm clock(on a schoolday I wake up at 630 with the use of an alarm clock)  . It was a Saturday and we were suppose to meet at the airport at 3pm, but I actually worked up at 6????? That day was like heaven , that day was the day I've been waiting for for one entire semester . From the moment I stepped into the airport I couldn't help but walking around the meeting point, hoping to see my fellow classmates . Slowly , bit by bit more and more classmates came . And unknowingly , it was not long that we boarded the plane, and the 5 to 6 hour plane ride didn't seem that long as it sounded with the company of my friends . It was there in china that we met our tour guide 米导 , that would be bringing us around for 8 long days. By the time we reached the hotel , it was almost 2 in the morning , we checked in and went to sleep .

I felt my heart tingle in excitement as I stepped into the airport! It was finally the day when we would be leaving for our trip to China! It was really a torture to see classes, class by class leaving for their trip, leaving us alone still in Singapore, however now we are finally at the airport about to board the plane to China in a while's time. 
When we finally boarded the plane, I was already exhausted from all the excitement I had earlier on and immediately dozed off a while after watching the movie on the plane.
Soon, we touched down and reached the hotel at around midnight. The excitement on most of our faces were already washed away by lethargic and replaced by sleepy faces. When we reached the hotel, I was tired and all I wanted to do was to get a good night sleep and use my phone for a while however to my dismay, there wasn't any wifi!! *cries* But my tiredness soon wore me out and I fell down dead onto my bed, dozing off into lala land.


Yuling:
We're finally here~! Expectedly, the day(night, I guess) was pretty uneventful save for some gaming and food on the plane, but there was a noticeable perk: burgers. In the middle of the night, no less. Definitely a first. Also, I did not pick the tomatoes out; another first. Well, if it was already so "fruitful" on Day 0, I can't wait for the rest of the trip. Though maybe it's the burgers, our because I'm with people who I see almost every day, but the fact that we're here in China hasn't really sunk in yet. Oh well. I'm going to enjoy my first night's sleep.
