“A Scentful Day”

On this beautiful morning, we woke up happily to face another wonderful day. After waking up, we all immediately showered and got ready for breakfast. Everyone had gathered, we just went downstairs for breakfast. Today the food was kwetiaw, potato wedges, boiled eggs, pastries, cereal. For dessert, we have as usual oranges and apples and marmalade. We had breakfast for 40 minutes, after which we went downstairs and were given some instructions. When we wanted to leave the hotel, it was raining really hard, so we had to use raincoats and umbrellas. After everything was ready, we just got on the bus to go to school.

About 15 or more minutes later, we finally arrived at Dunman High School. Our buddies immediately greeted us in the lobby to guide our way to our classes. As usual, we went to the classes of 3rd year students of Dunman Junior High School to study with the other students. We learnt lots of interesting materials in different subjects. Today, we did an experiment in Chemistry. It was about “Rainbow in A Tube ”. The results were spectacularly done. Furthermore, we took some photos with our buddies before we left the school to go to the next destination. Lastly, we said goodbye to our buddies and everyone from the school and we immediately went to a perfume workshop to continue our activity today.

After school, we went to Oo La Lab, a perfume laboratorium, where we all went in to make the perfumes of our creations. We were briefed for a bit about how to make the perfumes, then we were given a questionnaire to fill out and to help us remember about our perfume’s composure. In the end, every person had a different scent and aroma, and after we all finished our perfumes we all earned caps to close up our perfumes.

After finishing out perfume workshop, we then headed to the restaurant for dinner because we were all are very hungry. For today we went to a Chinese restaurant called bay kut teh. The restaurant itself is located in a mall where the mall has a bridge that connects to the vivo mall. Soup baikut, cakwe, soy baikut, and some vegetables were the dishes that was being served. The best one for me was cakwe. It’s hard to describe it but it felt just right in the mouth. Second one was the soy baikut, soy baikut is one of the only true few truly Singaporean culture heritage dishes. After finishing all of our food, then we move to vivo to go shopping.

We had so much fun overall, expecting everything we could possibly get. All of us had so many things to learn together and it was very memorable. We got our breakfast, met our buddies, experimented with perfumes, went to Vivo Mall, and more. It was very exhausting, but we still have to gather energy for tomorrow’s last day at Dunman High School. We hope that tomorrow’s activity can run well and structured so that all these moments happening at PEP can be such memorable moments and lessons for us. See you on day 5 !
