 * __Day 1:__** We learned about Shi Ku Men on the first day. We learned about the names of the different parts of the door, the names of the rooms, the uses, etc. We went to Xin Tian Di afterwards to a museum of Shi Ku Men. The rooms were not very big, though the whole house ws actually quite big. The decoration inside was quite old fashioned. My favourite room was the tian jing. It has a glass roof, and a high ceiling. It's the perfect place for having your tea and enjoying the sunshine at the same time (if it is not raining).

__**Day 2:**__ Today, our group (Group B) made two powerpoints about the World Expo, and migrants. The World Expo is going to have over 200 countries, and states invited, and next year's theme is going to be about urban development, and the World Expo museum is going to have 12 pavillions. I also learned a lot about migrant workers. They can paid about only $1.00 a day, they don't have a lot of friends, they get discriminated. I didn't know that they were treated THAT harshly. I learned a lot from today.


 * __Day 3:__** We went to Yang Shan Island today.We met our tour guides: Bill, Jane and Alice. It was a 2 hours ride till we reach there. We stretch our legs a little, and started our hike. It was a littlecold at first, but then we started sweating. The scenery was beautiful. We saw many different rocks with many different shapes: a dragon, a camel and a monkey. I am sure there are many more that are still unfound.Then we had our lunch, and head back down to the buses again. It was quite a tiring day, but I enjoyed the scenery a lot.

__**Day 4:**__ Today, we did a Google Earth tour and learned about the pros and cons of the development of China. We labeled the places and drew paths to the places we visited so far this week. It was fun finding the places. For the developments of China, my group was responsibleforfinding the benefits of developing China. I learned much more about China from this. Like, the fact that China actually helped Africa by helping them with infrastructure constructing, giving African students scholarships to come to China colleges or universities. These are facts I have never heard of before. This was a interesting day.


 * __Day 5:__** This is the last day of our EOTC program. We started off the day with soundscape. we recorded some sounds in the gym, with basketballs. It was interestng I had a lot of fun putting the sounds together. Then we had a field trip. We met Bill and Alice again. We went to the urban development of Shanghai museum (it was something likr that, I can't remember the exact name). We looked at the different developments of Shanghai: the Expo, the airports, F1, etc. It was alittle different since I went there two years ago. I guess the changes are mostly the exhibit of the Expo. We ended the day with some reading in the library and some surfing on the internet in the ICT. This was a very educational and exciting week.
