My Visit to the Jurong Island Trip

Hey bloggies!! How are you?? Hope you are all doing fine! So today, my class had a trip to the Jurong Island. We went to Jurong Island to see how and what the chemical industry is like.... We visited one company there. I think the company was Huntsman. It is a small company in Singapore but it has a lot of other branches outside of Singapore...

So before we went to the Jurong Island we had to take the safety helmet and safety boots at school.. The safety boots was BIG!! Huge!! I look like a clown! hahahah I think everyone looks funny!! hheheheh!! But really... It was tiring to walk in those big safety boots... Before we can enter Jurong Island, we had to go through a checkpoint... It was inconvenient as we had to have an entry pass then we need to show our IC to the guard and then when go through a metal detector or something like that... but after a few minutes, we are then allowed to go in Jurong Island... Then we board our bus to go to the company.. Jurong Island was VERY BIG!! and there were a lot of company,storage tanks, distillation column, ships and so on... It started to rain when we reach the company at Jurong Island. We had to listen to 3 presentation... and we had a safety test of 6 question before we were allowed to walk around the company and plant.. The 6 question was easy...

After that, we had to use a FRC (Fire Retardant Clothing)... It was a jumpsuit that is fire resistant. It was a bit uncomfortable wearing the jumpsuit though.. Then we had to walk around the plant using our safety goggles, safety helmets, and our FRC.. The plant wasn't very big though.. And it was drizzling when we walked around the plant... It was lucky for us that it rained before as it wasn't very hot.. :) If it didn't rain, then we would have had to walk around the plant under the hot sun with our jumpsuit, safety helmet, and safety goggles, big and heavy safety boots.... OHh and that would have been like torture.... But it was a good thing that it rained.. Coz it was quite hot before when we were at school before coming to the Jurong Island..

So after walking the plant, we were given old chang kee curry puff.. I got to eat chilli crab curry puff and it was delicious.. I've never tried chilli crab curry puff before... Since I hadn't eat my lunch yet and it was already 3 O'clock, there were 2 extra sardine curry puffs, I took the curry puffs and shared it with 3 other people... It was;t enough but at least i filled my stomach with something.... So after eating, we took off our jumpsuits and returned it... So finally it was time to go home as it was already 3.30 pm... So we board the bus and went back to our school.... Then when we reach school, we returned our helmets and boots.... then we all went back home... :)

So, from this experience of going to the jurong island, I'm not sure if I want to work at Jurong Island.... But let's see what happens in the future... ;)


With that, see you all soon!! Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!
