Day 33 - April 5

It's my mother birthday today and i'm so far away from home.
Didn't went with the rest to hankou to shop as i have to go and order a cake at the bakery next to the school. To my dismay i found out that my Chinese isn't as good as i thought thus have a hard time describing out what design i wants to the baker. Since my mother is that old so cannot put 寿. Thus put some simple Chinese words

Don't the birthday cake look great?

Invited everyone up to finish the cake as it's 16 inch in diameter, cakes isn't really expensive in China as compared to Singapore. As in China the labour charge is much cheaper thus for Singapore to compete with China we need to have a higher technology and end product as we cannot compete with out cheap labour cost like post Independence Singapore used to. Therefore education is very important in Singapore as with education than our workforce is higher level of skill than all other developing countries.
