No free coke T.T

I feel cheated… We went to the coke factory but they didn’t give us free coke… T.T they said in the morning there were some faults with the machines so they didn’t produce as much that day. Hurhur… But the rest of the place was cool. We went in and saw the machinery and the production chain. There was one very interesting machine. Because here in China, they have those glass bottled ones, unlike in Singapore we only have canned and plastic bottled ones. So usually the store owners will keep the empty glass bottles and recycle them and it gets back to the company. The company will then wash the bottles with distilled water and UV light at least seven times to make sure they are clean. Then they put the washed glass bottles into a machine. The machine brings the washed bottles into a scanner to check if the bottles are still passable for reuse. The ones that do not pass the inspection are then diverted to another lane and one staff packs them into some container. Those that are passable are then transported to the machine where they pour in the prepared Coke and then another machine will cap the bottle. There, bottle of coke ready! :D

Before went to look at the process, we watched a video. The video was super informative, though not about the making of Coke, but more about Coca-Cola, the company. But nonetheless, it was cool. Who knew Coke had been sponsoring the Olympic Games since 1928(think I got this date right)?

Today morning’s lecture is about criminal law. I think it was pretty interesting, and it is probably one of the easiest law lectures you can have. Since it is just a summary and all, the lecture wasn’t too hard to understand. I think the next time when I watch news about someone being tried in court, I can understand why is he in that particular court and not another court. It’ll be cool if I can predict how long a person might serve in prison for his crimes before the news even came out! Teehee :D

Today is pretty short. The lecture and the trip to the Coke factory both took less than four hours in total. But we had lunch in between so it’s late afternoon now. It rained yesterday night! The first rain we’ve experienced here in China! At first it was drizzling, then it stopped raining. Then when we finished our meal, it started raining even heavier, and we still had to go to the supermart! By the time we got back into our apartment, our parkas were completely drenched. T.T 

these are the photos me and Kristine took today(more like she took the photo and I  took the picture XP) 

I think I look pretty cute here, don't you think? XP 

lol Kristine took a blurred one on the first try! But i think it's pretty charming(maybe its just me...) here :D 

Got no idea why there are polar bears in the coke factory, but they were kind enough to let me take a  photo with them :D

me and the bears! :D

Cute!!!!!!!!

is that a fish or what?

Until now i still don't know what's that thing on the bottle looks like... 

And... Wang Lee Hom! he's so awesome!!! ^ ^

I see Wang Lee Hom!!!

so yeah, that's about it for the day. Me ad Xenia going out with Jovin, Clarissa, Jun Li and Kristine later for dinner! they tried some street buns and we wanted to try it too. :D


Sigh, next Wednesday is common test day, and project presentation on Friday. but before that, we're going to  the CITY tomorrow! yay! but i still have to study before and after the trip. and Red Cliff trip this weekend! I hope there isn't much stairs to climb(i'm resigned to climbing them, but not too many of them please) and i'm gonna ask Dr Sujit for some motion sickness pill. But i haven't been seasick before, so i don't think i will have them, but the whole tour this weekend is FIVE hours, so i hope i won't throw myself overboard or something. XP


First time i'm posting the blog so early! it's not even dark yet! :D Peace out~
