Day 28 - Team building, Final week count down

Wednesday, October 20, 2010 11:24 AM

(11th Oct 2010)

It's monday!
Our final week in wuhan..

I am still suffering from fatigue and muscle ache on my calves.
It's really miserable when climbing up and down the stairs.

Oh well, it shows that i did exercise!!YAY!!
Our dear lecturers were kind enough to cancel the morning lesson,
this allow us to have more time to rest.

Todays lesson is going to conduct in a interacive manner.
 it's time for team building,
and understand what's call teamwork.

Task: Build a paper bridge and ensure it is strong enough to hold 5 books.
We are all provided with papers and paper clips.
All of us were given around 45 mins.

And the time starts now!!!

All of us concentrating on building a strong and steady paper bridge


 Here's our final product~!
 Now, it's time to put our paper bridge for a test
 First book, CLEAR
 Second book, CLEAR
 Third book, CLEAR
 Fourth book, CLEAR
We did not managed to put the fifth book..
Sad to say, other teams managed to clear their fifth book.

Our final results:
Length of bridge = 30cm
No.of paper clips used = 19
No.of papers used = 21
No.of books = 4

Even though we did not managed to pass through the fifth book,
we are the only group who used the fewest number of papers and paper clips.
Other groups used 30 over papers and 20over paper clips.
So, i could say, i am already very proud of my team!After the lesson, the girls went back to the hostel,
and get ready for the final practice,
for tomorrow's performance.
We are going to do a nobody dance for 100 over local students!It's really amazing that we are already in wuhan for 1 month.

Not long ago, i am still worried about living in a foreign place for such a long time,
Now, i am already living in a foreign place for 1 month.
i am already so used to my life in wuhan.
Wake up in the morning, go to school, eat with my friends..
Do my own laundry..
Even though i have to do everything on my own here,

I enjoyed doing it, with my friends.
From now onwards,
i am going to enjoy every single moment i have in wuhan.

Today's lesson allows me to enjoy more time with my team mates.
We cracked our brain together,
Cooperate well enough,

and finally able to build a paper bridge together.

It's okay that we did not managed to build the strongest bridge in the end,

what matters is we did this together.
Outcome doesn't matter,
is the process that makes everything meaningful.

That's what i call, teamwork.

Tomorrow is our performance day.
It's time to party!
Until then,
Take care people!

XOXO,
