Pre-trip.

Victoria

It's about 2 weeks before the trip and recently, we've been tasked to research on Melbourne. Reading up its history and facts about it made me look forward to the trip. As a rather westernized country, Australia's education would, of course, differs from Singapore's. Therefore, going to Trinity college not only allows me to experience life as a college student, but allows me to see the different subjects offered overseas and the studying styles of the students there. I hope that from this trip, firstly, I'll be able to be a better leader, with better skills for public speaking. Secondly, I hope to gain experience from this trip and to be independent. Thirdly, with the mentors from the college, I hope to gain more insight in many aspects so as to widen my horizen of knowledge. Also through this trip to Melbourne, it would be nice to make as many friends as I can. Being able to meet teens from different countries would certainly allow me to learn many things that a classroom does not provide. What is most important, is that from the trip, I hope to grow into a leader that can serve the school and the community, and to seek as much knowledge to aid me in becoming a better person in future. Lastly, I hope to have fun at the college and in Melbourne! :)
