V-Camp Day 2

Yesterday I went with Joel and Ester to V-Camp. It was day 2 of the camp. The venue was IHPC (part of A*, Institute of High Perfomance Computing at Science Park II.The building's name was called the Capricorn.I had a lot of trouble getting there, as the place was in a rather secluded place behind NUS and Kent Ridge Hill.At the auditorium, I met Joel and we sat together to listen to a talk by a company. This Company actually conducted a Cinema 4d Animation course at Temasek Polytechnic when I was in Sec 2.Inside the company's brochure, I saw a few of 2 Unity 06 students' photos, and of course I saw Rayson.Many secondary schools have actually gone through this course, by the company IM Innovations Pte Ltd. Namely the schools that have actually attended this course are CHIJ St Joseph's Convent, Admiralty Secondary and of course, our school.After listening to the talk which lasted for about one and a half hours, we sat for the training course (Crash Course) lasted for 2 hrs.The instructor taught us to assemble a 3d model areoplane and later to animate it.We were at an advantage, as we had gone through the course when we were in Sec 2.We created a plane which had been been blown to bits while landing at an airport .It was okay, though the animation path wasn't smooth.Later, we went for a break, which was spent watching cartoons.The cartoons we saw were extremely comical, with one particular scene showing the character landing into a pit where there was a cow passing motion.The website shown was www.rgstudios.com.These cartoons were probably made by a Korean, as there were Korean words in it.Later, we went for 3d visualsion, where we watched a movie using visual goggles.The goggles I took back home as the mentor gave it to us as a souviner.However I can only see through Cyan and magenta colours as it is specially made in such colours.I also saw particles(atoms) vibrating 3d using such goggles, and the view was breathtaking.It was really 3d like and was happening before your very eyes.(I wished I could keep on watching the video!) Soon after, we were sent to the libary, and asked to play a game.We were treated to a quiz about IHPC, and we went scouring up and down for answers.Fortunately, ester had brought along a set of fliers from the day before.We rushed around for answers and the receptionist helped us by giving us answers.Students from SJI got a bit unhappy with us and asked which secondary school we came from.We ignored them and continued.However, by the time we came back, St.Margaret's Secondary had already been there before us.It was unfortunate.... They cracked some jokes at us and said we had taken years to get there. HaHa!! Anyway, we got a souvenir while they got a Notebook.Haiz... We went to the COVE next.We played counterstrike and we lost!! I killed a few people but ended up killing my teammates.So idiotic!! Don't know how to play such games...

At 4 pm sharp all of us boarded the bus to go to the Science Centre for the Closing ceremony. I throughly enjoyed myself the last two days and I received a certificate of participation with my name on it. I was told that I can get at least one CCA point from attending the V-camp. So mustremember to go and see my HOD when school reopens...

At 5 pm I went to turf city for training. All my teammates were already there as training had started at 3.30 pm. The coach made us run the 4.5 km route and all of them had just started running after doing the workout. So I literally ran after them. After 300m the heavens opened and it started pouring. All of us were soaked through to the skin but we finished the race. Even the girls...
