back from trip!

I'm finally back to blog..haha..

Went on my Country Road Trip on tue n wed..the trip was organised by the uni and is meant for us to visit the agencies in the countryside and see if any interest in any projects there. We have to link up with an agency n do our needs analysis and come up with a project proposal before this sem ends then next half of the year will have to do implementation. That's for PCP module - the module that attracted me to UniSA.

And so I was vvv tired after the trip but I enjoyed it a lot coz I got to see the amazing works of God's creation and also interesting ideas that the agencies gave as well as issues faced which made me compare about Singapore as well. Wow..such a long sentence..haha..ok..so took mostly photos of the scenery from the coach along the way n only took pics with vivian n jing. Both are part of the 5 Asians (including me) i hang out with in sch. The DVD player on the coach was funny lah..coz couldn't fast forward so we had to watch the front 45min of Sister Act 2 3 times!! Hahaha...then in the end managed to finish watching "Love Actually" on our way back which journey took abt 3+hrs

Quite keen to do the one in Clare (1.5h drive from Adelaide!) but have to firstly plan my other 2 modules that I'll be taking and see if hv any scheme for intl students coz apparently, aust n PRs get living expenses, free accommodation n even transport reimbursement back to Adelaide during their placement. Quite happy that our tutor who went with us offered to find some schemes for us n told us may hv...

Came home ard 9.15pm, thanks to Kathy who fetched me from our drop-off point in the city =) Feel so blessed staying here lor..haha! Enjoy the photos!
