Waddup guys :D today we had APPG in the morning blah blah blah okay maybe not so blah blah we did APPG lab test wait for it…….TRAIL ONLY!!!! hHAHAHAA okay not so bad atleast I think I did okay for it :D (bluffing oneself :P).must be humble okay!!!!
So we had lunch again with Mr Tan and Mr Chua but at a new restaurant that we had not visited yet we actually fooled Felicia into believing the food there is vegetarian and she only realized that she was being duped half way through the meal HAhaH!!!! That was so funny :P!!
Okay so todays afternoons IS was planned by us as its actually a interaction session with our language partners and we decided to introduce them about Singapore for example the tourist attraction, how Singapore got its name, how was the Merlion came to be, our culture/races and last and not least the FOOD!!!!!!!(starting to miss Singapore =.=”).
We started the program by introducing ourselves to the language partners as there’s new comers and in exchange they introduced themselves . we actually started the presentations on Singapore’s famous tourist attractions such as sentosa, orchard road ,the Singapore old rail way station ,esplanade, the Ferris wheel and of course last and not least universal studio! We continued the program about the other races in Singapore and the four main races living in Singapore, we actually had Tae to present about the Malay culture and when he came to introduce about a Malia form of martial art called silat he actually presented a showcase of a few Silat moves as he himself is learning it.
We after Tae’s presentation we also presented about the delicacies in Singapore and due to the fact that the variety of food is too much we actually only present the few delicacies that is really famous such as hokkien mee, carrot cake , Chilli crab and of course nasi brani and prata. oooo thinking about this is already making me hungry HAHAHA!!!!
Also to make the program even more interesting Mr.Tan actually performed quite a few magic tricks that amazed everyone and it actually help to keep everyone entertain and kept the atmosphere in the room fun and exciting rather than having downtimes which causes awkwardness .
After the presentations we actually get into groups and talk and tried to get to know one another more and I realize that they are actually very friendly and happy to share with us about their thoughts and opinions about life or about the presentation that we presented and we actually spent around 2hrs talking and having fun in the classroom though during the duration few of the students have to go as they have a lesson. One thing I realized today is that the people doing their job when you say thank you they will always say something to you back polite while back in Singapore its not always the case .Oh oh and tomorrow’s APPG Practical Test … Hope im ready hHAHAwish me luck!!!!.
Reflection
Today I feel that is one of the most fruitful day since our 1st day reaching in Tianjin because the one of the main purpose that we came here was to learn and interact with the people here and learn their culture and today’s interaction with the local students is exactly depicts what we are suppose to be doing here and I hope that more of such session can be organized as it really teaches us many things in life that we may not know and in return we also actually give them the opportunity to interact with us and get to know us better.Today not only that I will be brining valuable knowledge that I never know I also made a new friend in my life
