Hello! Today was the Games Fiesta and me, PN and H didn't go. Only D went for her fencing. I hope she enjoyed herself! Now let me tell you about yesterday. D and H didn't come. I was so sick with the flu that I could barely open my eyes. Any chance I could close my eyes, I would take it. When I was resting in class, Miss Teh played the japanese movie "Totoro" for us to watch. Too bad I've already watched it more than 5 times already. PN untied and retied my hair. When I was feeling better, but still blowing my nose away, I read TEENAGE magazine with C and PN. After the much suffering, I still had to go to the Singapore Maritime Academy at the Singapore Polytechnic. Such a long day. I just hoped I would fully recover soon enough to actually ENJOY my time there. The Maritime was completely different from what I expected. YOu might laugh, but I thought that Maritime was about Marine Biology. XXXXX nope. It was about ships and the sea! The first place they brought us was this room with a bunch of tables with computers. We didn't use the computers and we had to listen to this lecture on life at Maritime Academy. I can see why this is supposed to be a field trip for choosing careers. They offered Diplomas in three areas, Marine Engineering, Shipping Management and Navigation. THey brought us through 2 simulations. When we were doing the navigating simulation, E was given a chance to steer the ship and everyone was chanting, "Crash, Crash, Crash!!!.." E didn't mean it, but the ship actually ran into another one! Nothing big happened. The simulation just restarted. A while later, the guide took us to a big and empty glass tank and ask 5 people to go inside. He said he was going to put in some gas to suck out all the oxygen because he said that is what the machine would do if there was a fire. He told us to get in, so we reluctantly stepped into the glass tank. The man said, "Ok, I'm gonna turn up the gas now...." We all held our breaths and actually, I didn't feel like anything was happening. When I got out, he said, "You know, it didn't matter if you had held your breath or not because this machine is empty- there is no gas inside." All of us were like, "WHAT?!?!??!" We completely humiliated ourselves!!! Ugh! Anyway, after that, and a bunch of other stuff, we headed back. Thanks for reading and don't forget to catch High School Musical 3 in cinemas this Friday! Bye!
