Meanwhile, the firepit people were busy soaking wood, as usual. Thay borrowed a trolley to put the firewood , it was btter than carrying it around! And they saoked,and soaked, and soaked all day long!
Not forgetting STRUCTURE!!! We also tied squarelashes to make a ladder and we also made 2 quadropods. At this time,many seniors came back for a visit. Charmaine,Erika,Gek Shan,Ethel.....and alot more. It wasn't all happy and sweet when we were tying all the different structures. One of the sec 2s got scolded by Erika for not watching the base when we were tying the quadropod, so though we made 2 quads, we could only open one. Awww....that girl almost cried... ) :
After that, all of us went to eat our lunch,which was provided. We had a meal of white rice with fish,vegetables and spring rolls...yum yum...! (: After we had a short rest, we went back to our campfire components, but this time, the overall deco came over to structure,after they had packed up their stuff in the canteen. The item girls also came over to structure.
Now almost everyone in guides was in the structure component and once there, they learnt how to tie a new knot, also called diagonal lashing. Everyone helped to open up the quadropod...Erika's way...haha...that is to pull open all four sides of the quad at the same time and then put it down on the ground at the same time. oh well....(: It took an eternity to get it up, but finally we managed to put it up. x) After that, we tied the stabilisers to the quad and the PLs checked our knots to see how tight it was. As some of the knots were loose, we had to retie them. So after we were done with tying all the structures, we could rest for awhile. Then we went back to close the quad with the help of Erika . when it was almost timeto go home, we kept all the poles back to the pole area, and after everything was done, Shu Yi fell us in, and it was HOME SWEET HOME!
