BBQ with SRJC friends

Last Sunday, we organized a BBQ with our SRJC buddies near Labrador Sea. But my buddy and I were late for the BBQ. When I arrived ar the place, my buddy told me that the girl beside her said a careless person lost his handphone when playing. How careless that person is!  You can never be careful enough when going out! When we arrived, our friends had already enjoyed  themselves for some time. I saw some chicken wings and meet balls on the grill. It smelled really delicious. 'Oh, it's dainty! I want one!' Hearing this, my friend gave me two meat balls and i shared with my buddies. After a while, my leader took out a corn cob. I loved corn cob very much! It was covered by a layer of tinfoil. Some parts of the corn cob were parched, which made the corn cob looked more appealing. And dainty smells filled my nose, attracted me to have a bite on it. 'Who want this?' 'ME!' I cannot wait to have it! The corn cob was really delicious that i wanted to have more.
After having some food, i suggested to grill an apple. I took an apple out of the bag and a boy stick a bamboo skewer into the apple. Then we brushed the apple with plenty of oil, put it on the grill table. Fire combusted  on the apple because of the oil. Soon after, bamboo skewer broke and the apple fell on the grill table. We stick another bamboo skewer to the apple and decided to ask somebody to try it. Finally, our leader tried a piece and spitted it cause it was really awful.
Some black clouds floated in the sky when we were talking, and it became dark. We decided to finish the BBQ and go back to hostel. After tidying the place, we took a photo together and went back. It began to rain as soon as we arrived the hostel. How lucky we were!
It was really a happy BBQ, wish to have more later~

BBQ at Labrador Park

Last Sunday we had a barbecue with our buddies. It was really fun and we had lots of delicious food. Labrador Park is really a nice place for barbecue as we can enjoy our food while sitting near sea feeling sea wind. It was really nice we could see our buddies again. I hope we can be friends forever.

Last day in JC

One week was really a short time. I had to say goodbye to my friends.
On Friday, JC students have an hour extra for exercise. I attended the first real PE lesson in JC. I have to say PE is really exhausting not only for me but also for local students. PE was really strict because local students have a serie of physical exams for graduation including 2.4 km running. Although I go jogging almost everyday, I found I could hardly reach the standard. Singaporeans can have healthy body through PE lessons.
After school I had lunch with my classmates. It was really hard to say goodbye. I will miss them.

Unforgettable experience in SRJC

The experience in SRJC was really great. I made many new local friends here. My buddy, Matthias, was really kind to me and all his classmates were amicable. By entering JC classes, I came to know a lot about Singapore education system. I saw local students how to work and study.  I noticed local students are good at group works. For the first time, I felt school pressure on local students.
Thanks to SRJC for taking care of us.

Unforgettable BBQ

This weekend we went on a barbecue with our buddies from SRJC. We set up our equipment at Labrador Nature Reserve--near the sea. Many buddies came and we spent the happy time of the afternoon together eating and talking. The weather was really good and we were all engaged by the delicious food we grilled. 
After the BBQ, we said good bye to our buddies. I really enjoyed the afternoon and it was an unforgettable experience. I hope we can still hang out with our buddies in the future.

My experience in SRJC

After a few days' study in SRJC, i found it different from what i've thought. Students in JC are also stressful. Above all, they also have to get up at as early as five to six o'clock in the morning. 
Look at the picture on the right, it was taken in the morning when we arrived. The moon was still shining in the sky and the light was still on. But when we reached the center area, there were some students studying diligently. 




What's more, my classmates worked really hard. All of them listened to the teacher carefully at class. But students in JC don't have to stand up and answer teacher's questions. They are also more relaxed in the class. 


I experienced a PE class in SRJC. At first, i was afraid to run 2400 metres because it sounded really horrible. But when i heard that there was no need to run so long I felt released and happy! We ran one round as a warm-up. After measuring weight and height, we began training. It was just like play games. We did some practice and played some small games. The funny PE class ended in our laughter. What a happy experience!

Five days' study is really short. In SRJC, i have found some local friends and known more about local students' life. And all of my friends from NTU decided to BBQ with our buddies next week. I am really looking forward to that!

My experience in SRJC


I really appreciate the experience in JC. I knew much more about Singapore education system and the most important thing is that I get in touch with more friendly Singaporeans. I began to know more about the character and lifestyle of local Singaporeans. I enjoyed a good relationship with my buddy as well as his classmates. We had a good time together and enjoyed a lot of jokes. I also shared the Chinese culture with my buddy. He was very shocked that Chinese middle school students had to get up so early and go back home so late. At the same time, he also admired the knowledge we have equipped. Sometimes I also help him with the problem he could not handle. He also learned some Chinese ways to handle the problems. In some days after school, we took MRT together and learned about the culture differences. I am also surprised the things we learned in primary school are so different. I think at first, the students are quite relaxed in Singapore, but very stressed in JC and their college. While Chinese students seem like to have a very relaxed life after they entered the university. I think we should just neutralize the two extremes and that will be good for the students.
