AT Sem 5 Singapore Trip.....

From 2nd April to 7th April, I went to Singapore with my whole class for site visit. 20 of us including our lecturer, Miss Chai, went for this trip.

1st Day
We departed from Kuching International Airport at 5.30pm. When we reach Singapore, it was already 7 something at night. We sat a free bus from Terminal 1 to Terminal 2 to go to the MRT station to our accomodation place. We wait for Roderick as he was coming with the next plane because he could not check-in on time. When all of us had grouped together in Terminal 2, we started our journey to our accomodation place at Chinatown. We lived in the People's Park Complex. We were all shocked when we saw the size and the condition of the room we were living. It was quite a shocking. After that, we went down for dinner at the hawker stall near our accomodation named 'Thousand Taste'. Then, some of us went to Clarke Quay to play. That night we play till quite late in the club named 'Arena'.

2nd Day
We had our breakfast at Chinatown. After that, we took the MRT to Lassale College. It was a design college with a very fascinating building structure. After that, we went to Mustapha Shopping Complex which is a 24 hours shopping complex. We had our lunch then we went to National Library. It was a very big library. The library is 10+ storey high with different functions on different floors. There were also a courtyard on some of the floors. Students use to take their breath or relax after studying in the library. Then, we went to National Museum. It was a heritage building that was extended with glasses which wont spoil the original look of the heritage building. We could see many thing about thing about the cultural and delicacies of Singapore. We also went to CHIMES which used to be a church but now converted into a dining place. At night, some of my friends and I went to Geylang for a walk. It was quite a shocking place as there are many 'Girls' all around the place. We still go to the Thailand pub for a drink. It was quite a special pub as u can pay RM20 for something... HAHA....

3rd Day
Like the day before, we had our breakfast at Thousand Taste. After that, we went to St. Mary Church by bus and MRT. St. Mary Church is a catholic church. The interior is very holy with the skylight on the ceiling. The sunlight shine inside the interior give a very holy feel and it give natural lightings too. After the visit, we went for shopping at Orchard Road. At night, we still went to Esplanade for a night visit. There was a small concert near the entrance and there was a small shopping mall inside selling cultural and exhibition work. There was a courtyard on the top floor with a very great view to the Marlion Statue. After that, we still went to a pub named 'PowerHouse' near VivoCity. That club had a very fascinating interior and space. There are different level of floor inside which divide the space to drinking place, dancing place, DJ stage and bar seats. It was quite fun that night as it was a saturday night.

4th Day
We went to Bugis Junction for shopping and we had our lunch at KFC there. The Chicken does not taste better than KFC in Kuching but the burger taste good. We walked there for the whole afternoon. In the evening, we went to VivoCity for site visit again. The facade of VivoCity is full of organic shape concrete cladding which create a corridor between the concrete cladding and the building. The top floor of Vivocity is a big courtyard. There are small shallow pool, auditorium and viewing place at the courtyard. The view is very nice because the view is towards the Sentosa Island. At night, we still went to Clarke Quay again for site visit. It is 4 shophouses with street between the shophouses. The street is a mall with a very designed roof on top. The mall is air-conditioned and there are many pubs inside.
