Omg, I'm like posting so little nowadays.
Probably, because.
I HAVE A GHEY HAIRCUT. Lol.. Yesterday, the maths test was okay, just some questions a little hard.
IP today ! LOL. DAMN FUNNY LA. We had to make the tallest structure that could hold a tennis ball without collapsing. I'll be posting pics of our crap soon.
Its like. Okay,so hey, lets bundle up the straw, 7 in each bundle.
Okayokay, so 7 in a bundle. Then, okay lets make triangles then stick then together to form a super strong structure. Oh shit ! Cannot la, make square one ! No make triangle !
Berton walks away,
Then we sarted making triangles. EHH WTF SHITTT.
WE GOT SO LITTLE TAPE LA WTFF.
So they started slicing tape into half. Berton comes back. OH Okay.
So we started making triangles. BUT WTH, SO HARD TO STICK THEM TOGETHER LEH HOW. So..
When all geometrical structures fail.
THROW IN ALL YOUR STRAWS AND BUNDLE TOGETHER LA.
GHEYYY.
So. Our thingo was so damn flimsy la, (and berton went around stealing people's tape because we didn't have enough) So i got inspiration from the ferris wheel singapore is building la.
The support cable thingos. They connect to the ground to further stabilize the structure. So i did that, and the structure managed to stand la.
So, Later, we tried with a tennis ball, and the structure kept falling la.
We didn't know what to do, but wei tieng and sophie went to put billions of straws on the foundations, which were just 2 triangles lol. So it stood, but was still unstable and we needed lotsa luck la. So when the judges came, he said it must hold for at least 5 seconds. So we counted. And it stood. BUT THEN, THE TEACHER SAID TRY AGAIN. I DIDN'T MEASURE PROPERLY. So we were like wtf la.
But luckily in the end it still stood la. I'll post the pictures when i have time.
We call it, the MIRACLE STRUCTURE.
