Testing Times by Max

We were all very excited to enter the exam room this morning to undertake the first part of the iGeo. The Written Response Test was split into 6 questions which required good knowledge and interpretation skills to a really high level. I found the test challenging but not impossible and once I got into it I actually enjoyed it. Isaac felt the test was 'alright', Britt thought there was a lot of time constraint as it was longer than an NCEA exam in the same time.

Later on in the exam time we found we were against the clock in a race to get it finished in time. Rock's favourite question was on World Development and Britt's was on Sustainable Tourism.

After the exam we had a chance to rest our mind for a couple of hours and have some lunch - Beef Curry, Rice and Salad before venturing out into the hot sun at 3pm for a fieldwork exercise.

It was enjoyable walking amongst the picturesque Kyoto but the heat soon got to us and we all found ourselves consuming copious amounts of water + Pocari Sweat.

We have had another great buffet dinner which was enjoyed by all.

Tonight we have a 1.5 hr lecture about the fieldwork exercise which will happen all day tomorrow.

Over and out from Max
