Yesterday, I went to the Singapore Discovery Centre with the school's NE Ambassador team. At first, I thought that it was going too be very boring. But things did not turn out as I had expected. I thought it was actually quite fun.
We went through the Galleries. The first gallery uses the "FIRE", "EARTH" and "WIND" to describe Singapore. "FIRE" was used to describe Singapore's past, about chaos and wars. "EARTH" was used to describe the present Singapore, so peaceful and calm. And last but not least, "WIND" was used to describe the future of Singapore.
Next, we went to watch a movie film. It was called "SO Singapore". The movie briefly describe why Singaporeans behave and look so like Singaporeans. It was an interesting movie. From that very movie, I learned that Singaporeans are so like Singaporeans because number one, they are just like the Merlion. The head is a lion, which signifies bravery. The tail, which is a fish tail, means freedom. Number two, Singapore is well known for its local delicacies.
Then, we went to play a game. It is a game that consists of eight players. It is actually a quiz.
After that, we went to watch a stimulation movie. It was pretty scary though. It was on an MRT Bombing.
We than went for our one-houred lunch break. After I ate my lunch, I hurried back to the gallery to talk to a robot named "Little George" that my friends and I had spotted earlier while walking in the galleria. I spoke to him, "Hi. Bet You couldn't talk, could you?" Suddenly, the robot answered me in a silvery voice, "Of course I could, after all, I am a robot." Wow, its amazing, I asked the robot to move, and he could really do actions. But unfortunately, he could not move his legs. After a while, I felt bored and went away.
I went to play a game with my friends. The games purpose is to step on the things you see on the floor pictured by a projector. It can actually move. But i don't know what it is called.
I went back to class after that.
It was then our second break. My friends (xin xian & wen fang) and me went to play an extremely thrilling game. It was bumpy castle. You must squeeze yourself through a tiny weeny hole (which is the entrance) and roll down to the other side. Then, you will have to climb up tiny little square cushions, which is VERY difficult to grip your legs onto it. Then, you will be on top of the castle. Now, the next part is not suitable for people who is afraid of heights! Now, you will be on top of the castle, right? The you will have to roll down an extremely looooooooooooooooooooooong and tallllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll "hill". Whoever finishes first will be declared the winner. Sounds fun doesn't it? The whole class was crazy for that! It is more like an "adventure" bumpy castle.
