Day 15 *APPG Theory Test 1 & ECO City Tour*

Today was the day we had our first APPG theory Test! Stress stress stress! It's not that I didn't study for the test but I felt more pressurized during the exams. Even though I did a lot of preparation for the test, but the atmosphere of exam kills me silently. What I do is to get use of the pressure and overcome it. Maybe is because of the environment that doesn’t look like an examination hall, most of us forget the terms and regulations of exams. I think that we should remember about this all the way until we quit. Exams mean exams; nothing could change the terms and regulations. It was quite rude for us to talk to each other with the exam papers.


Anyway, the test is over! Worrying about it doesn’t make a difference to the marks but it will change your mood. We went back to hotel before our ECO city tour. We must be contented that we have a tour guide all along with us. He introduced the different places of Tianjin to us along the way. But, most of us fell asleep on the bus as we were studying until very late yesterday night. I know what we did was quite rude to the tour guide, but he did not just stop talking. He is very passionate about his job. I felt that he can’t stop telling us about his HOME. Everything he said makes me feel that he is very proud of his own country. The tour guide also made some jokes about Japan. Although they might think that the joke was funny, but we were not. Due to some history between China and Japan, some Chinese still cannot forgive those Japanese who ruined their HOME. We cannot blame the Chinese though, if we put ourselves in their shoe and think for them, they are the victims too. Even though some of the Chinese felt happy for the incident that happened to Japan not long time ago, China still sends some rescue team over to help them. From here, we can see that the people now are more open minded. Regardless where you come from, if you were in trouble and need help, there are always people out there to help you.

I saw Singapore’s flag was there. I felt proud of Singapore and I had a sense of home even though there might not the place that I belong to.

We went back to hotel after we took a group photo. Thank you so much to the tour guide that speaks all the way from hotel to ECO city. The tour had cleared all my doubts on it. We appreciate the effort.
