Back From Camp..

2009-05-29T19:16:00.003+08:00

Hello Everyone! Did you had fun in the survival camp? I Love the High Elements (Rock Climbing, Challenge Rope Course) and also the Water Elements (Kayaking). What about you? Shout it out at our tag board:)

Okay.. Before we set off to our camp site, we had to make a flag of our own. The flag was based on the theme AYG (Asian Youth Games). Anyways, we decided to pick Malaysia as an example. We drew the Twin Towers and Badminton rackets and shuttlecocks. Malaysia is known to be one of the best when it comes to Badminton. It is known to be around Top 10 in the world. Will post more about it later:)

Okay.. Here are some Pictures..

In the guys's Bunk..

Simone and somebody (Can't rmb who) was holding the flag

HEy Guys.. I went to the bookstore at bukit merah a few days ago a found this -

It's a Singapore 2010 YOG book thingy..

~Vincent~

LOL MUCH???

2009-04-19T20:26:00.005+08:00

Was surfing the net when i found this.. Mr Brown explainations, lol..

"The New Youth Olympics logo has been revealed and it is loaded with meaning.

As you can see from the logo, there is a Purple bird with its head on fire.

It represents young people who are suffering from heatstroke.

Below the Purple bird, there is this green swoosh. This swoosh is necessary in all government logos as it represents dynamism. Also, it is a reminder that the grass is slippery after rain, so be careful when you run on it.

The informal handwriting symbolises the careless yet vibrant penmanship of young people.

The five rings below represent unity, all-roundedness, the unbroken circle of trust, international global-ness and a personal pan pizza."
