It has been months since i blogged... and well u can say that this is a new beginning for me..
It has taken us 2 weeks to build the longest chain of plastic bottles and took us less then 30min to destroy it... nevertheless... we did set the record with 25,655bottles with a length of 5.54km.. which is a remarkable achievement.. even the judges said so themselves... they were fillied with nothing but praises for us... the process included collecting all the bottles.. drilling them.. stringing them... and of course the most tedious arranging them on the field under the hot blazing sun... causing most of us who worked under that section to be sunburned... literally.
that of course included me.. even being under the sun for the past week everyday after school till abt after 6.. having cramps... skin charred by the UV rays of the sun... mosquitoe bites... exhaustion...even when fatigue set in... we perservered... and we made it... This may be the first and last record setting attempt i maybe particiapating... and well if it is... then it was the best of all... met so many new ppl along the way... esp hui yu... she inspired everyone to continue and we talked almost the whole day long... heyx but dun get the wrong idea ok.. lol.. the shipment of 3000 newwater bottles was really a boost... though we pratically wasted all of them watering plants water bombing and sorts... hahaX.. the amazing part? we did not even use up all the bottles... we still had like a few hundred not used... due to the time limit... hahaX..
