SLC 2023

I was in my school's 2023 Scout Leadership camp and we had to hike to East Coast Park.  After we had finished packing our bags for the hike, we were informed that we would be hiking to East Coast Park which was around 9km away and we had to prepare flags for our patrols which were named to constellations and mine was Aquarius which i had a lot of fun designing as everyone was involved in the process of making the flag and it turned out amazing and we were all really proud. As we were leaving for the hike each patrol was issued a tent which was around 7kg and we had to carry it along as we hiked we had to designate shifts for people to carry them as we hiked I was not aware of the time we had spent hiking as I was absorbed in conversation with my fellow batchmates getting us to understand each other more. Thankfully we arrived at the campsite before dark and we had to pitch our tents and cook dinner which was a simple packet of instant noodles but it was a fun experience gathering a...

Plastify Workshop

  Plastify is a indie company where they educate the public on the different types of plastic and their reusability, as well as sort, wash, recycle and melt the reusable plastics into coasters, carabiners and memorabilia. Personally i have had a lot of fun during this workshop, it was a very enjoable experience learning and trying out the different steps in making items. Sorting was not that exhilarating but it tested our teamwork as we had to remove stickers from milk jugs and put them into different compartments based on their plastic type and pass it on to the washing station. The washing station was simple as we just had to fill the bottle with a little bit of soap and water, shake it , dump the excess and dry it. The plastics are then shredded into flakes and are put into a melting press whete there was a lever we needed to press down to compress the melted plastic into the mold. It was very fun as we could just hang from the lever and press down on it, many of us tested our s...
