What might look like a very deep meaningful photo but actually really just me taking a picture of the (backs of the) 2 cutest guys from the trip lololol 

Changi Prison Link Centre

Honestly didn't know what the program (i.e. learning journey/field trip) was about, till I actually went lolol. When I got nominated to go, I thought it was a conference LOL but it really isn't...... I guess it was a really eye-opening experience and getting to know more about what Singapore's Public Servants do. I'm not going to lie and said I had the best time of my life because it was really quite boring and AWKWARD 90% of the time. 

Majority of those who went were younger J1s from freaking elite schools (we're talking Raffles JC, Raffles Institution, Victoria JC, Temasek JC.....), and only like 5 were from poly lolol. And the only other guy from my Poly (not my course) was quite dao to me (¬､¬). So throughout the entire trip I was just ~floating~ around......... LOL. And the people I managed to stick to (and talk a bit) all had their own friends from their own schools (¬､¬) 

And I think not knowing anyone there made my experience not as pleasant as I would have liked it to :-( But I REALLY REALLY REALLY enjoyed the Prison tour!!!!!!!!!! We actually got to go in, see the prisoners and their "home", and even talk to the Prison officers and Superintendent. I managed to ask if there were anything for Psychologists to do in a Prison, and the superintendent told me all about a Prison Psychologist's job!!!!!!!! 

So really that one prison trip made the entire program (kind of) worth my 18 hours/2 days of school, because I'm actually quite interested to work in the prison/police force :----) I managed to find scholarships for that job too so I'm hoping it's a path I'll look into after I graduate :-) 

So all in all, I'm thankful I got the opportunity to even go and be with elite students cause that made me quite proud too :--------)

Rachel, Sam and Hannah - My flash mob partners for the day !!!!!!!!!


As the name suggests, it is a flash mob!!! All the participants will listen to the audio soundtrack (which tells us what to do) that we predownloaded on our phones!!!!!!!!!!!!

One of the tasks we had to do as a whole 'mob' was to write a letter to our future selves...... Which the 4 of us didn't participate in cause we had no pen HAHAHAHAHA


With our cool face tattoos

On the red carpet with Sam (even though you can barely even see the carpet HAHAHAHA) 

Pretending to be dead in the middle of Orchard Road.............. 

...........And doing an umbrella dance w/o rain
We also did other silly things la HAHAHA but the acting dead one was by far the most ridiculous AND FUN tasks HAHAHAHA
