We went to Ifly and learnt how to fly in a giant tunnel filled with strong air in the morning. We were first taught by an Ifly instructor of the relationship between mass, density and speed by the use of different kinds of balls. Afterwards, we were allowed into the VIP room and learnt about how the giant air tunnel operates. We also knew about velosity which will be useful in our studies in the future years. All of us were quite nervous before the flight as we are the first group to fly. However after we have started flying, we enjoyed the process a lot. Being able to fly freely is always one of the dreams of many children and we are finally able to do so!

In the afternoon, we attended a talk on Stanford University admissions. The speaker told us about his own experiences and lots of information on university applications. These tips benefit us greatly, giving us a glimpse and preparation on what we should do after our following 3 years of high school. It also provides us an insight on what we should prepare well at the present.

In the evening, we had a bonfire night with friends at French House in the countryside. We had enjoyed tasty treats such as s'mores and took tons of photos with the spectacular scene. Not only we have enjoyed ourselves completely in this event, but most importantly, we have also developed a strong bond between friends. Overall, we have a wonderful time having fun and chilling out tonight.

July 13th Melanie Ip Janet Lee Dorothy Ma Christine Lum   We attended a visual design class with Bill Scott and together created a get well soon card for our friend. Rather than copying the pictures directly from the internet, we were encouraged to be imaginative. We modified our original drawings of animals and stuck it onto the card. Furthermore, we were instructed to use pen instead of pencils. We learnt that making mistakes is a part of life and we should not be intimidated by this fact. After, we played a game where we rearranged letters, from an original word and made different words from it, sone in different languages. We also had neuroscience after that and we learnt more about that subject as most of us didnt have any idea of what it is. We also learnt many interesting topics regarding neuroscience and we were all intrigued. After classes we prepared for multicultural night. The event was really fun as we got to learn about the cultures and history of a few diff...

July 16th Melanie Ip Greta Lam Janet Lee Christine Lum Dorothy Ma We went on a field trip to San Francisco Bay Area where we spent most of our day. First we took a 2 hour bus tour around the city. During the tour we got to see the whole city of San Francisco and listened to the brief history of the city told by the tour guide. The Golden Gate Bridge was also a highlight of the bus tour. The wind was exceptionally strong and we can rarely experience it anywhere else. We also took a few photos before we continued our trip. We also had two hours of free time after the bus tour, so that we could walk around Fisherman's Wharf. We had a great lunch of seafood, soup and bread and it was delicious. There was also a large number of shops in the Fisherman's Wharf. Since we had some time left we shopped around and bought some souvenirs. Another great thing that we had the chance to see sea lions. We rarely see them in hk except in ocean park and it was a great exoerience for us...

Today is such a special Wednesday! We had a field trip with packed activities. In the morning, we played iFly, a memorable experience with professional instruct. After that, we even learned some physics principles to give a detailed explanation of our flight. We really took a lot from such exciting and unforgettable activity which we could never have back in Hong Kong! After lunch, we had a talk on the administration of Standford University and we learned about the detailed information for application of the university. The Stanford University is such a beautiful place, we really hope that we can continue our study there. In the evening, we had a bonfire. The sunset was magical, we had loads and loads of pictures there. It has been a pity that we did not get ourselves some smores, but it was surely a precious experience to enjoy the view and the weather!
