Science Center Visit/ HP7

Had a rather Fun and Educational visit to the Singapore Science Center.
Never thought that i would return there once again lol.
The last time i was there, was about 5 years ago i guess??
The entrance still looks the same, but some of the exhibits have changed.

Woke up early to arrive in school at 8.45 am. Thought i was still 5 mins late lol.
As many of my classmates went down on their own, we didn't need a shuttle bus and so cabbed down with my teacher and another classmate to Science Center.Of course i was my teacher who paid lol! But i'm sure she gets a rebate from NP.It's cheaper than a shuttle bus too.

Had a lab session for 2hrs.Experimented with DNA testing and stuff.Quite a fulfilling experience =)
Then went about to the Genome section, where a whole bunch of exhibits about Genes and Genetic Engineering was exhibited.
Pretty interesting, lots to learn, and a whole new perspective to Genetic Engineering and your body.
Spent quite alot of time there, reading the long paragraphs of texts.

Then went to check out the special exhibit, CSI The Experience.
Exclusive to South East Asia in Singapore! =)
They had 4 crime scenes, including one which they worked with the Singapore Police Force to come up with.
I managed to do one case, very well organised i would say, and of course very interesting. Felt like i was a real Forensic Scientist or something lol.
Didn't finish the other 2 as i felt a little tired of it already lol.
But i had a geese of what the other 2 cases were like.

I think i was the only one who stayed 8 hrs at the Science Center lol.
Emo kid.
But it was an eye opener, and i really appreciated how the exhibits were displayed,something which i did not feel on my previous visits.
Perhaps with more knowledge, these exhibits make more sense, and so you will appreciate the information more. As some of the information might have been a little too advance for younger kids, just like myself years ago.

Then left for Plaza Singapura to meet Mic, Chips and Thai.
Ate KFC before catching Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1.

For those who have read the book, you will find the scenes quite well interpreted and acted out.For those who haven't read the book, i think you would be bored to death.
But it doesn't matter, cause you get to see Ema Watson!! Aka Hermione Granger =)
Chio as hell man i tell you!!

After movie went to have the famous Selegie Bean Curd, but i had the Soy Bean Milk and You Tiao.
Headed home after an eventful day. =)
