Summer Science Camp!

Well, i had a great time at SSC 2005! At first i wasn't too sure what to expect, but i had a great time, even if i am completely exhausted now! Well, i shall tell you a little about what we did. Melissa, Bec, Clinton and Daniel were the deans. I was in charge of music.

Firstly, we organised a games night for the kids (aged 16-18). As you can see, some of the games were quite messy, but we had great fun watching them and i'm pretty sure they enjoyed it too.

The boys getting "shaved" by the girls. Now this was quite interesting to watch, those poor boys had shaving cream everywhere! Posted by Hello


And now the girls turn, getting their teeth "brushed" Posted by Hello


During the week we went to the beach and relaxed. It was a nice hot day, so the cool breeze and the suft was greatly appreciated!

Saturday night was the banquet. Mel, Bec, Clinton, Daniel and I set up for the banquet and the kids got all dressed up. It was an extremely late night, i think we went to bed at 2:45am.

All dressed up for the banquet, and didn't they all look lovely! Posted by Hello

A whole week of getting up at 6am and getting home at the earliest at 10:30pm is rather exhausting! But i had so much fun, everyone was so friendly and well mannered and behaved!

    daniel speaks... *mouth drops to the floor*... just kidding... he knows i am just joking... even if i am hard to get used to... anyone would think he would be used to me after three years... but nooo... he still has his introverted anger against many things i do... i can't help being me though... even though i just sound stupid some times... like now... ;-)

    i can imagine what it would be like... it may not compare to 24-7 caring for a blind kid... but it gets pretty close to it... i guess you can't really compare the two things... nuff of my ramblings though... maybe i should actually post a blog tonight instead of doing this kind of thing all over peoples blogs

    daniel:

    so you are saying i comment too much and make myself sound less qualitised!!! well... if you want it that way... but quantity of zero means basically quality of zero... sorry... thats just how it is... lol... it is good that you actually started commenting though... how come you never comment on mine?? now that you have started it would just be leaving someone out not to comment on mine as well!!!

    good to hear from you again though... its been so long since college finished
