Outing

Yay!

XD

Just got back from a family outing at Pohon Batu.

It was sunny today.

:D

And i had fun.

(^-^)

Sometimes it's just nice to get away from my current life.

Forget everything for a moment and just sit down to enjoy mother nature.

That's what i did (with my bro).

We sat on the rocks that was stretching out to the sea and talked.



It was just very nice.

The wind whipping about my face.

I even had fun with my brother.

XD

S. S!

Hehe.

(Trust me, i'm not a photogenic)

Haha.

Figures.



We must at LEAST take pictures of ourselves every now and then.

Know what i mean?

;D

Have something to remind us of our youth when we get older.

Haha.



And it was very rare for my family to spend time together.

My dad works on shift.

Me and my brother have school activities, tuition and stuff.

And my mum..

Well..

She basically took over the house when the three of us are gone.

XD

Haha.

And her companion was our tv.

:D

That's about it actually.

I really had fun today.

Solar Car Competition (Part 2)

XD

I'm back!

Now to continue where i left off!

:D

Now where was i??

Er...

Oh, right!

XD

The Solar Car thingy!

Hehehe..

:D

Well, day 1 ended, leaving me stressed to the core.

=.=

Just move motor!

Move!

And yet..

There's no sign of "life" for my team's Frankenstein.

XD

Lol.

When i returned home that night, i racked my brains into making the PowerPoint presentation for the next day.

I was quite worried about what to put in the PowerPoint.

But luckily the gave us time to work on it the next day.

:D

I was sitting there at the edge of the table (typing) while Kyky and Phan Ning was busily designing and smoldering the solar cells (again).


My backside really ached because i sat there for at least one hour and a half just typing the PowerPoint!

XD

And when the clock struck 10.30am we were told to stop and clean up the lab.

=.=

Any good reason for getting extra marks.

*rolls eyes*

Well, we did what we were asked to -throwing the wires, tins to the rubbish bin.

We also left our "Solar Car" back in the lab.

(The judges wanted to examine it, i guess. =/)

Then we trooped to the meeting room...




PS: I cant always go online on weekdays. Ja-ne~!

Solar Car Competition (Part 1)

Well... I guess i could start by describing my experience when i entered the Solar Car Competition. (^-^)

On the day of the competition (Tuesday), when we entered the Physics Lab of SMK Mutiara, i was like so nervous. XD

Honestly, i didn't know what i was getting myself into.

Then the judges gave us a short briefing (5 minutes?) and the competition began.

There were 10 teams if I'm not mistaken.

2 groups from 5 schools.

Well, my school, St Anne, had one all-girls team and one all-boys team.

And when the judge walked away, the other teams began scrambling all over the place.

And my team (me, Kyky and Phan Ning) just sat there- with our mouths hanging open.

XD

Lawl.

We REALLY had no idea what we gotten ourselves into.

But we had no choice so we began "constructing" our so-called solar car.

I busied my self in helping Kyky to smold/pateri the solar cells.



(Which turned out to be useless, because the solar cells didn't work in the first place. =.=)

We frequently checked the cells for any signs of voltage or ampere, still there was none.

(Again, we didn't know that some of the solar cells didn't work)

We must have looked dumb.

XD

Standing beside the "light" while waiting for some readings.

Eventually, we asked the judge for new NINE solar cells to replace our broken ones.

I also occasionally hovered to the boys' table, just to see how they were doing.

...

Well, gotta get some sleep now.

XD

I'll continue tomorrow.

Nite-nite everyone!

Since this is my first time blogging (:D)

Perhaps i should introduce myself (a bit).

I'm Aemilia CHM.

(^-^)

A-E-M-I-L-I-A, got that?

People keep spelling my name wrong.

(@~@)

But it's no biggie.

XD

I've gotten used to it, years ago.

Hm, i'm 16??

(O_o)

I'm originally from Bintulu, Sarawak.

:D

I can speak English, Malay, Mandarin (a BIT XD), Hokkien, Iban (also a BIT), Japanese (neh, not really).

Hehehehe.

:D
