Pre-Odessy of the Mind is so fun. Partially because our group, Gao gao's group, keeps winning! Yay! Haha... Like yesterday we had the Hands on tasks and like, we did two. One was to make a newspaper structure and make it as high as possible. We actually did it the day before but most people's collapsed, so Mrs Tan wanted us to do it again! Yay! =) So we did, doing it a little smarter this time =) and we won! Alanna would just not admit that our structure was the tallest. Theirs was pretty much the same as ours, just that ours could stand without falling over at all! Thanks to Gao gao's kiasuness and scotch tape, our structure was barely the tallest. Ha ha ha...

Next we had to make a cushion for an egg so that it wouldn't break after a drop from the second level. We were sort of discussing whether to wrap the egg completely in newspaper or to make a parachute. Well, we ended up doing the parachute but throughout we were like, betting whether it would work or not. I was sort of thinking it would work, but after Gao gao's continuous pessimissity(??), I startedthinking it wouldn't work either. Then later Sydney and I think Gao went up and then we had to lay out newspapers on the courtyard so that if the eggs broke we won't make a mess there. The wind kept blowing and we had to use our feet to hold the newspapers down which was quite freaky because we were worried that they'd drop the egg on us! It was quite scary waiting. When they let go, it was ULTRA cool!! Ours took the longest time to reach the ground because the parachute worked!!! =D It was so cool!! It was like... It was floating down... It floated into the gallery... Thank goodness it didn't break! So we won again! But Alanna's group didn't break either. =( We then took a class picture with our eggies and structures. Then the Gao Gao's took a group photo and then together we crushed and tug-of-warred our newspaper structure and then threw it away...
