Thursday, November 27, 2008. We were at Anning Middle School for the whole day. As usual, had our breakfast and headed to Anning Middle School. Our very first destination was Chinese Painting. We learnt how to paint a fish. We had a hard time painting it. In fact, we must be graceful handling the brush. So, if we could paint it gracefully, the fish would look nicer. If we're too aggressive, the fish would look horrible. After we painted the fish, we were asked to draw flowers using our own imagination.
