OMG OMG! What a fun day at the science centre!!! PLEASE do read my post! Its soo super duper exciting....!!!
The money was well worth!! In the early morning, met up with my buds at Jurong East...AND SI YING WAS EARLY!! *I still thought I was the first one who reached..CHEY*
WE WENT TO VISIT THE CHINA- 7000 YEARS OF INNOVATION!!
We got ourselves a badge, a brochure, and STAMP!
There was an exhibition guide who guided us during the journey and told us many things about the past. There were many different dynasties, such as Qing Dynasty, Song Dynasty etc...
When I was in there, there was a strong feeling of "PAST AIR"... I don't know how to explain it in specific details, but its something like "WOW, this thing before you has been existing for thousand of years..and.. ITS NOW IN FRONT OF ME!"
Yeps. I saw one which was the most memorable to me...Which is a medical operation kit for the throat area. The kit was said to be belonged to a past ancient man who had it 6 generations before him! (YES! ITS THAT LONG!!)
Inside the kit, there were scissors, sharp toothpicks, metal plucker (Or whatever they called it).. They were even laid on top of a flourished cloth. And you know what? Upon closer View, I noticed a bit of blood stains on the cloth.. I am not sure whether it really is blood, but I suspect it is as the blood had already turned brown and its located near the sharp end of the scissors. There was even one stained toothpick too. (Hmm~ Did I just say blood?? *lick tongue*)
Ahem..anyway...back to the topic!! I even bought a momento back from the exhibition and it was a very beautiful crafted bracelet...(China-like) for my mum.Yeah, one of my classmates bought one, too! And there was this ang moh who bought really a lot home!
I can say that the people of the past were very clever people. They can even make a living without advanced technology. So, look how the world is evolving now. Handphones, laptops, computers, PDAs..Oh my goodness gracious! Imagine how life would be for you if you were being sent back to the ancient times!! So, please count your blessings that you are living well here in the 21st century!
Amongst the many items I had seen in the exhibition, there was this medical cabinet which was said to be used till the Year 1911. I opened the cabinet and inspected it one by one...and yeah, they do still smell of herbs.
I opened one drawer, and I discovered a faded sticker sticking on the back of it.
On it, there was a date, month, price of herb, name of herb written!! And it has a date of 1965! Which was...erm... 42 years ago?!
OMG! A medical cabinet that has been intact for so long and appeared before my very eyes! I feel so honoured to be given this chance to view it. I looked closely into the cabinet, and YES, I could still see a bit of uncleaned herbs inside, together with the smell. ^^ Hey, the smell was still fragrant, k?
Haha, after our exhibition, we went to the Science Centre..Our teacher bought us the tickets! (But we had to pay 2 dollars)...Haha, and my, we had a whole chunk of fun too!! For example, my 'son':
ISn't HE ADORABLE!?!??! Oh, btw, he's from England!!!!!
