Day 22: Coca-Cola Factory Visit

Day number 22. Nothing much happened today. There's no lessons in the morning thus most of us slept in alittle bit more in the morning before we wake up to complete our assignments.

Rested in our rooms till around lunch time before we headed out for our lunch out of school and head back to meet up with the rest at the admin block for our Coca-Cola Factory visit. The bus journey from WUST to the Coca-Cola Factory took approximately around 1.5 hours. Thus, some of us slept on the bus while the others relaxed for that bus journey there.

Upon reaching the factory, we waited outside for quite sometime before we were brought into the factory. In the factory, we went to see a video on the Coca-Cola enterprise since it was started. After the video, we were brought to the production line to see how the various beverages was manufactured. After visiting the production line, we went on to the exhibition hall where we see the various types of products or designs which was being produced for various events or functions. Here are some of the photos!

After the visit, headed back to school, which is approximately another 1.5 hours of bus journey back. Upon reaching school, most of us headed back to our rooms to rest for awhile before we head out for our dinner.

After dinner, me and my room mates are fortunate to see a street acrobatic show put up by some acrobatic school in China. It is definitely an eye-opener for us. The show was interesting and it includes juggling, fire juggling, acrobatic stunts and more. After watching, we head back to our rooms and here we are! Here are some of the photos of the show!

Alrights! That's all for today! Will be having leadership activities for the whole of tomorrow starting from 8am in the morning!

My Reflections:

After today, I realised that life isn't that smooth sailing for all of us everyday. There are bound to be some obstacles and problems along the way which we will encounter. Instead of escaping from all these obstacles or problems which we are facing, we should face it with confidence and to deal with it. These obstacles and problems which we face provides us with a learning experience and we will definitely learn something out of it. Thus, when we are facing a problem in the near future, we should face it confidently and not give up that easily.

"Obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it"
- Michael Jordan
