Today I went to do volunteering work at the Super 8 Challenge. The Super 8 Challenge is for young people aged between 5-16 years old to take part in 8 different sports. Basically, I helped out at the trampolining area, counting the number of sit-drops done by the kids in one minute. Subsequently, I convert the number into points, based on a points system. In addition, I am also a runner, i.e. I collect scores from each of the sports and bring them to the results area. The kids are really amazing. They could jump for a long period of time (~ 5-10 minutes) without feeling dizzy. Some of them could do somersaults while jumping as well. Of course, there are instances whereby the kids get injured. One of them hit against the edge causing pain to his tummy, and another had continuous nose bleeding after jumping up and down for a long time. Other than that, I was also surprised at how easily satisfied they are being able to just keep jumping, not even feeling bored at any point of time. One of the parents even asked for my email as her daughter is having problems with 'A' Levels Chemistry. I wonder if her daughter will actually email me.On a side note, I have completed the drama series 'Take Care of the Young Lady', starring Yoon Eun Hye and Yoon Sang Hyun. I love the ending a lot!! There have been several criticisms on Yoon Eun Hye's acting skills. However, I felt that she have fabulous acting skills.
Oh..there have been complains about the PSLE Maths Paper yet again this year. I tried solving one of the questions, and all of a sudden, I was stuck as well. Nonetheless, I managed to solve the problem using simultaneous equations. It was then I realised that the question was actually very easy. However, did the primary school kids learn simultaneous equation?? Anyway, my solution is as followed:
Tomorrow, I have to get up at 5+am. This is because I have volunteered for the IAAF World and Birmingham Half Marathon as a goodie bag distributor, and had to reach the NIA by 8.15am. This means that I have to leave my house by 7am so that I would be able to reach earlier than required, hence not so rushing.
Anyway, I just finished watching Fann and Chris Wedding Video. It was very sweet!! However, the following clip is hilarious!! I could not stop laughing while watching it..haha =D
