Post-Trip Reflections...

Here are some of the post-trip reflections by the students that went for the China Immersion Trip...

The time had come. It was the day that we had to leave China and head back to Singapore. Oh, how fond the memories we had as a class. And even though I don't speak Chinese, we bonded really well. I found out how nice my classmates there were when they gave me farewell presents even though I never really did talk to them in class.

I just wish I can see those from the school back here in Singapore again and I just hope they will miss us.

But it's ok! We can still contact them via MSN. Although I might need to have a friend who speaks Chinese by my side. Oh well.

Time flew very fast and now we have to leave China and go back to Singapore. In these 12 days, I have learnt a lot of things and learn how to get along with my group members. After this trip, I felt I had grown up and know how to be independent. Most importantly I made a lot of friends during this trip that includes our fellow EVGians and Chinese friends

Hui Yoke.

Throughout this China Immersion trip, I had learnt a lot of new things. Firstly it is being independent. we cannot always rely on our parents to help us do things. This trip is fun indeed, especially being able to shop with my friends, visit places, and most importantly, have fun. I enjoyed the days with them and being able to meet friends from China and communicate with them. Now it is time to say goodbye to China and say hello to Singapore. I really want to thank the teachers for the delicious food we had and taking care of us for the 11 days.

Marven.

Day 11.... Last Day

Dear families & friends, Today is the last day of our Immersion. We will be leaving China on Flight No. MU543 and we should arrive in Simngapore Terminal 3 at around 5 am on Saturday.



Here are some photos of the day before we leave for Singapore...

Day 10...

This is the second day we had morning exercise. We were impressed by how quickly the students here get into their neat rows, almost in a military-like manner!


We know the steps much better today, look at how much we are enjoying the dance! :D

After the morning exercise, we went back to class for lessons. We were surprised by thoughtful gifts from our classmates who knew we are leaving tomorrow. Oh how sweet of them!

At noon, we went for lunch! Today’s lunch was different from the usual restaurant food that we have been eating because we had lunch with our classmates at their school canteen.

Their canteen is rather different from ours. In Singapore, we can buy food from different stalls, but here they have no choices. Their lunch menu is designed by nutritionists and cooked by the school chef everyday.


What a refreshing experience to be having lunch with the local students!

It’s time to have FUN! After lunch, we headed to the MOVIE WONDERLAND.


At the entrance, we saw our Boon Ping looking very much like the yellow Mascot he was holding. So were Diana and Pooh Bear.


Imagine this: You are sitting in the dark. You feel yourself moving up slowly. Then suddenly you plunge downwards and almost fall out of your seat. Instinctively, you grab for the handle bar and at this instant, you heard Japheth scream like a girl beside you…

Set Menu from the Movie Wonderland

Drink: Motion Dome Theater
We sat on the seats, put on our seat-belts, held on tightly to the handle bar and the lights went off.
We were all in a spaceship and we saw planets revolving in front of us. The seats started charging downwards and we were eaten by space monsters! Ahhh! All of us were screaming so hard, we couldn’t hear what the narrator was saying. Or maybe he screamed along with us? Who knows?

Toilet break: Geraldine Dropped Her Ticket in the Toilet BowlWe found it to be rather amusing. She was sad.

Appetizer: Hero Show

This attraction demonstrated how a movie was filmed. We were awe-struck by the numerous stunts performed by the actors. The story line was about China war heroes who courageously exchanged their lives for freedom from the Japanese.


Main course: Space Travel Of Movie

This one was a roller coaster ride in total darkness. We enjoyed the rush of adrenaline as the roller coaster twisted and turned in the tunnel. We screamed like we have never screamed before! This is probably also the best time to hear the guys squeal like girls.

Side Dish: The Milky Way Palace
In here we learnt movie sound tricks! Miss Lee and Rennie got onto stage to do a voice recording for a movie scene. It was so cool. Miss Lee really sounded like the auntie in the show!

Dessert: 4D Theater
We put on the movie glasses and the show began. It was 4 dimensional and so there were extra effects like hot air blowing onto your face as the serpent in the movie bared its fangs in your face. The glasses made the animation come alive: The mice, bees, elephant and serpent came so close that everyone screamed non-stop. It was hilarious seeing people waving hands wildly in the air trying to slap the animals away!

Three words summarized the experience: Fun, Fun, FUN!

Dinner was held at the Jiao Zi Wang dumpling restaurant where we celebrated Shi Qiang’s 15th Birthday! Our guide Catherine and Yan Fang surprised Shi Qiang with a HUGE birthday cake that they have so lovingly prepared. Shi Qiang was very shocked and we sang the Happy Birthday song. We were all so happy, it was like all of us were having our birthdays.


We will be putting up a short performance for our China classmates tomorrow. We all had our final practices and hope that they will enjoy our performance.
And that's a wrap!
Finally, with a nod of approval from Mdm. Tan, we heaved a sigh of relief and dashed off to pack our luggages. We are going home tomorrow!



We miss you mom and dad!
