My Unforgetable Moment
            Last week, On Friday September 16th – September 17th 2016 I joined Science Camp at Bougenville Villa and it was one of my unforgetable moment.

            Research, Olympic, and Technology Team in my school (called TRILOGY) usually holds Science Camp every year for some selected 10th grade students, and fortunately they selected me to become Science Camp 2016 participant
.
            Every participant was incorporated in some division. There were Biology, Math, Astronomy, Chemistry, Physics, Informatics, Geography, Economy, and research division. I was incorporated in Biology Division with some other friend from another class.
            On September 16th 2016, we gathered at our school, we were going to go to Bougenville villa with Military Truck. Not long after that, the truck arrived at school, there were two military trucks, for boys and for girls. Then, we entered the truck and we started the JOURNEY!

            On the way to the camp, we laughed and sang together. It was very fun, because we could talk about science and we also made fun of our friend because she adored one of our senior who also incorporated in Research, Olympic, and Technology School Team. Everyone sang together, took pictures, and talked about anything. I enjoyed to be surrounded by such people, because they have same passion as me, passion in Science, so we could talk a lot about Science.

            When we arrived at the camp, we directly went to the auditorium to learn about research and how to make a good science report. There were also some teachers from our school and a scientist from LIPI (Indonesian Istitution of Science) who taught us more about science and shared information about research.

            After a short break in the afternoon, the participant of each division gathered with their preceptor. So, the biology division and I gathered with Mr. Zaenal (Preceptor of Biology Division). We gathered at the river, we sat on the big river stone in the middle of the river. It made study biology more interesting because we studied in the middle of the river. We learned about anything while hearing the water flew in the river, it was very relaxing and also very fun. We learn about how we could feel itchy when we touch caterpillar, we learned about it while watching the caterpillar moved on the river stone. Study science is more fun if we study directly to the nature.

            After that, the participant were be divided into some small teams, each team consisted some students with different division so we could share our knowledge. Those small teams was been given a task to do a research. My team had a research about strawberry that could indicate the borax content in the food, we named it MIBORI. We did the research with Ben and Huri, they are our senior in TRILOGY, they guided us and taught us about how to do a research very well and how to make a good science report.

            In the following morning, we woke up earlier, we pray Shubuh and had ice breaking, after that we had a quiz and to solve it we had to combine some knowledge from different subjects, such as physics, math, biology, chemistry, and many more, we solved the problem in quiz with our group.

            After had a breakfast, we had a presentation to tell about our research. My team and I told the audience about our research quite good and I was relief because my team and I already completed all the task in Science camp.

            Before we went back to our school, we took lot of pictures together and we played kites at the camp, I was very happy, it was a very pleasing moment, I felt grateful that I had a lot of new experiences from SCIENCE CAMP 2016!
