She talked about the usual gossips and she mentioned she with her went with her friend to see the movie, “Haunted Changi” which was released in 2010. In fact, she together several times with 3 of her friends went in her younger days when to Old Changi Hospital. 

They climbed over the fences and sneaked in to the 1^st and 2^nd floor which was left wide opened. They went to the toilets with the doors opened and the mirrors were left facing them.

She admitted that they were young and wanted to explore the place...basically where curiosity overcame fear.
