Day 2 of the post-exam activities

Today...was fun! Hahaha...pet rocket nice sia!!!

First, was the sex talk. Then, we had the pet rocket thingy. I, Meng Tuck & Melvin form a group which requires 3 people in each group. We start off with cutting and taping the bottles to make it into a rocket. Then, we went to the field to launch our rockets. Fortunately for me, I was the launcher...which was fun! After launching the rocket (45 degrees from the ground), water inside the rocket acts as the thrust (e.g hydrogen gas for space rockets). So, squatting directly behind it, I was drenched real bad after launching. I had to go through this twice. Then, after half an hour of break, we went to the hall to modify our rockets, by putting in a parachute, so that after launching, it will act as a parachute (duh...). So, we went to the field again. This time, we had to put the rocket at an angle of 90 degrees. I had to be the launcher again as Meng Tuck & Melvin didn't want to. And again, I was drenched after launching it...but this time, it was different. Since I was aiming the rocket 90 degrees upwards, the force (thrust by the water), was downwards. So, the force actually 'pick' up the mud from the ground, and so the mud dirtied my uniform. You understand? Its hard to mention ah...

Hmmm, so tomorrow is leadership programme. Haizzzz....BORING! Hahaha...
