National Science Carnival #2

Day 2, woke up kinda... steam.
Had the most perfect breakfast of my life, typical toast, butter jam sort. Rushed my clothes and straighten out myself, got on the SPECIAL van for Young Scientists inclusive of the CGL ones and headed for Institut Pendidikan Guru Malaysia, the place where the carnival was held.

A very large institution, I guess government's too rich.


Four competitions started on this day, the registration for Solar Car and Solar Boat competitions took place early.


Jing Yao with the Al-mashoor girls, and our three lovely Solar Boat participants from Chung Ling.


They had to be quarantined for preparation and presentation. Rules were strict. Thus I left the area and went to the main hall instead, where the Inovasi Sains dan Kejuruteraan and Eureka Ree were being held.





Completed after 5 hours, Penang's team SJKC Hu Yew Seah. They were the ONLY chinese team amongst all 14 states, for Chinese! :D
Late evening I left the hall, went to see the site preparations for Water Rocket, Solar Boat and Solar Car. Weather's fine. =)

In the middle picture, did you see the small little dot? It's one of the water rocket's parachute.

Water Rocket launch site. Sipeh large area man wth. Others;

These two white tents here, were the PA system set up.

At about 5.30pm, took the similar van back to hotel. The Solar Boat/Car contestants had their allocated time extended until 7pm, so I returned to the hotel room with Jing Yao. Rested and clean up, changed into clean clothes and camp TV.

Had dinner at 7, the form 4 peeps just came back from competition site. Had dinner together then camp TV again. Went down to take a look at the Bistro, then returned to room. Slept at 1am or something.

High sensitivity again! Ahhh.
