I felt quite lucky to be one of those who are been chosen to go for this 2 weeks trip. Not knowing anyone in this trip make me felt rather lonely and hopefully i will be able to know all of them through this trip too make new friends from other countries. We are told to do some research on Melbourne and which will be compile into a handbook that should be useful to us. In this trip, I would experience life in a college and the education system in Australia. This trip will be a useful one as we may learn things that we could not learn in Singapore. We will have to be independent and take care of ourselves as our family will not be there to help us. After this trip, I hope to become a more confident speaker and a more independent person.
