Singapore Flyer

How has the Singapore Flyer provide us with an enriching lesson outside the classroom? In my point of view, I expect the ride to be scarier but to my surprise, it was not scary at all. In fact, the flight was as smooth as I have ever thought of. The flyer itself is very smooth and steady unlike of what we have expected. I felt excited before the flight as I expected something that is more thrilling rather than just a slow and steady manner. However, the flight is still an enriching one.

When all of us are on top of the flyer, all of us had a stunning view. The venue is a place that is covered in between some of our country’s landmarks such as Esplanade, Marina Golf Course, Singapore River, Floating Stadium, The Fullerton and many more. I think the venue that they choose to set up the Singapore Flyer is a good choice as the surroundings around the Flyer is full of centre attractions, such as, the F1 racing circuit, the integrated resorts and more.

Personally, my experience on the Singapore Flyer was a wonderful and meaningful one. It was wonderful as this is the first time I am getting up on the Singapore Flyer and I get to see Singapore’s landmarks and some of the magnificent structures at just one go. On the other hand, for meaningful, it is because I get to get out of the classroom and learn some concepts beyond the classroom. I get to experience the “real thing” rather than just textbook information and I think that when we get to see the “real thing” we get to experience and learn more. We can see things in another point of view as well.

In my opinion, I feel that the capsule itself is quite spacious and we get to gather and play around but at the same time we do our assignments as well and this shows that we not only play hard, but do our assignments “hard” as well. Although the capsule’s capacity is not as big as the whole class can enter but after all, we still get to have some memorable moments in the capsule. I feel that it does not mean that when something happens, it will be memorable. Instead, I feel that the memorable experience is that all of us get to learn new concepts in a new environment. The moment we learn something new, we share it with one another and this shows that we have team work. Team work is very important as nobody can do something outstanding without another’s person help.

The trip itself is worth going as this trip enriched us with learning new concepts. This trip also let us blends in with our own classmates as we do our assignments with each other and this does not leave any of us out. If we really got to learn, it is best to learn as a whole rather than an individual. After this trip, I will definitely recommend others to go up the Singapore Flyer as I feel that this is an experience that everyone should have. If possible, I would definitely go on the Singapore Flyer and experience it once more!
