Day 11

Initially, we planned to go to the theme park today. However, the weather ruined our plan and it rained the whole day. What an unlucky day! Therefore, we went to江汉路 to shop. I found out that for some buses, the seats are very different from us. The seats are very low! It is just like a giant sitting on a mini chair. Finally, we met our Singapore classmates, Meng ting and Tai yi, who are also from china today. Went to have lunch at pizza hut again. After that, we walked aimlessly inside the mall as it was raining outside. I did not buy anything as nothing caught my eye. Moreover, the things they sell here are not really that cheap except the food.On the street, I saw a handicapped girl of age around 10-12 sitting on a piece of plank and moving herself using the hand to stride against the floor. I really feel sad for the girl. She is so young and yet she has to undergo all these unfortunate things. No picture of her was taken as it was raining and our hands were occupied with umbrellas. Headed back to hostel at about 8 plus.
Reflection:
Comparing with that little girl, I feel that we are very fortunate in the sense that we have a complete and healthy body. After I have seen so much unfortunate people in china, I feel that what is most important is that we have a good health and family members around us. Other things are secondary. Therefore, we should not take things for granted and cherish whatever we have now.
