Having meals with your family is a great bonding time. So me & my family had our family-bonding meal at Orchard Hotel. The buffet offers dishes from all over the world .

never give up

Hey guys I'm back so let's begin our topic for today never giving up.
Have you ever been mocked by someone because of the way you look? Don't worry you are not alone.
I too also been mocked by people because of my handicap of not being able to walk whenever I  go out I will try to hide form people. Sometimes I even hear people whisper to themselves why is this boy so weird. It broke my heart once I head that. From that day onward I told myself I will prove these people wrong one day.
Sometime in early 2004 I was called by Mediacorp they said they needed some kids to sing the theme song of the President's star Charity. I  thought to myself  this is a chance to prove some people wrong.

Going to Mediacorp

So I was all set to embark on life-changing journey when I got to Mediacorp the first person I met was actor Mr Tay ping hui. So from there, we begun to bond with each other we were like best friends for a period of one moth. During the recording session which lasted over 5 hours. I have never been so tired in my whole life I felt like I wanted to give up. But with a few kind words from family and friends and more importantly the kind words of Mr Ping Hui. Knowing that my whole family was behind me the whole way I made up my mind to finish the song and not to give up.

The Big Night  

The night of the show finally came I was backstage trying to tell myself " you can do this your whole family is waiting for you to go live on-air!" So with that being said I sat down with the rest of the cast. At 8pm that night the show started off with a welcoming of the Guest Of Honour. Mr & Mrs SR Nathan that was my first time ever seen so many people in my entire life. After all the acts were over it was time for the Grand finale, this was my time to shine. When I stepped on stage I had the feeling of accomplishment the act of the entire cast singing Reach Out For Love ( The Theme song for the show) raised  a total of $4000 to the president challenge fund.I went backstage to tank Mr Ping Hui for being such a good mentor and friend.

And he said " You're welcome Wee Kiat you also have been a good fried to me too", so I said my goodbye to Mr Ping and all the kind people at Mediacorp. That night I went to bed with a smile upon knowing that I proved many people wrong.

A day at the Discovery Centre

Last Saturday, I woke up at seven in the morning because I had to go on an outing to the Discovery Centre with a social worker from Society for the Physically Disabled (SPD) and volunteers from Freedom Adventure Club.

We took a bus and arrived at the Science Centre at around 9.30am. The entrance fee was not cheap at $13 per person. Nonetheless, I did not have to pay a single cent. We went into the Discovery Centre and looked at the exhibits. The first exhibit was one I liked a lot. I had to pretend to a reporter and try to report old news stories with the words speeding at 10 km/h on screen! It was so fast I could not even say a thing! Despite that, it was great fun because we could play back our recordings!!! There was another attraction which caught my eye. It was called the Singa-Bot. It was a robot which could answer all our questions about Singapore and even dance and rap!

“Why are Singaporeans so obese?” I asked Singa-bot cheekily, not expecting it to have an answer.

“It must be the nasi lemak they eat every morning,” replied Singa-bot, much to my surprise and amusement.

I thought of Mr. Lee, my language teacher at school, and wondered if he ate nasi lemak every morning! He probably eats nasi lemak then sleeps every morning to maintain that round figure of his haha!

Following that, I went to the Army Museum within the Discovery Centre. There were displays of tanks and guns. In fact, there was a display of a hundred rifles at the entrance of the Museum and they could be “fired” electronically. I also found out what NS men have to go through in order to protect our country.  One of the most interesting exhibits was a slideshow that showed how Singapore could collapse in twenty years if we don’t grow our own food, have our own electricity or water. I understood what the message meant and believe that Singapore should be less dependent on other countries for necessities like food, electricity and water.

Finally, we watched a 3D show called Tornado Alley. We followed the world-famous storm chasers on their latest mission to find out more about what causes tornadoes and storms. It was an exciting show!

Before we took the bus home, we had lunch. To my surprise, it was something that was mentioned earlier this morning – nasi lemak! It was lip-smackingly delicious and I imagined Mr. Lee drooling over it. Mr. Lee wasn’t there to enjoy it! Too bad!

Overall, it had been a great trip and I thoroughly enjoyed myself!SPD's website FAC
