LAB@HOME LATEST COMPLETED PROJECT

Jacob's Ladder - A Jacob’s Ladder is the type of high voltage “climbing arc” display seen in many old (and usually bad) Sci-Fi movies. Jacob’s Ladder come in all shapes, styles, and sizes.

NOTICE

On the 19th of September 2007, HELiXATED.COM was taken offline due to... I should say, disciplinary issues concerning the owner. Almost exactly a month after the incident, I have decided to revive this blog in its all-new glory. Relevant changes had to be made.

An account registration system has been implemented. While public posts will still be made, more private and sensitive issues require an account to view. Registration is simple. Just refer to the... stuffs, on the left. Upon registering, I'll have to approve your account based first. I'll only accept people who I know, friends of people who I know, and friends of friends of people who I know... and that's pretty much everyone. Eh.

Oh and one more thing. This is a disclaimer that everything and anything mentioned on this blog COMPLETELY does not reflect the opinion of the owner. All characters and events described in this blog are fictional. The ideas and characters are the figments of my imagination, and any resemblance to real life people, either living or dead, is purely coincidental. Don't believe in anything.

Unless, of course, I tell you to do so.

Cheers!

Fun-O-Rama XIX

EDIT: For ALL 167 photos I took, please visit http://gallery.helixated.com/thumbnails.php?album=13

Quite a wonderful experience. To see the school turn into an epic havoc for once.

And that’s just a quarter of the full scale of the event.

The opening ceremony which everyone missed out on.

dsc_1131-550x550.JPG

My class had two booths: a game stall and a food stall. Naturally, most of the girls took up the food stall, and rest of the thirteen and a half boys were manning the game stall.

War on Terror. Made from testosterone.

Which simply involves…

dsc_1186-550x550.JPG

dsc_1199-550x550.JPG

Not too bad. Quite a number of females played it as well. In the first 15 minutes I was hanging around there, we have people like…

dsc_1206-550x550.JPG

dsc_1197-550x550.JPG

Aleksandark Duric. Perhaps unknown to many, but he’s a national footballer, SAFFC, S-League’s top scorer with 40 goals in a season, S-League Player of the Year for last year…

He waited around our game stall for a few minutes, couldn’t take the queue, and left. Darn.

You won’t believe our prizes, and it’s smart not to.

dsc_1142-550x550.JPG

But apparently, we have obtained scientific evidence that most people are indeed, stupid.

The top prizes are virtually impossible to win unless you hack, which some people do so for their academics. Not this time though.

dsc_1143-550x550.JPG

To quote one Mark Ang,

In terms of popularity, resounding success. We never stopped serving people because the queue would never end since, like, 10am. Partially because everyone wanted 14 shots, and 14 shots is a logistics nightmare and a time eater. 2 mags, and 2 guns being constantly rotated for the person at the same time. Imagine that per person.

After a while, our game stall got a little too crowded, so I left and slacked around. After a few trips around the school, I can safely say that our game stall was actually the most popular one.

Problem?

Plus it was quite cheap too. Halfway through I was thinking about raising the price to somewhere like $3 for 3, $6 for 7 and $10 for 14.

We couldn’t fly people through fast enough. It was about 2 minutes per 14 bullets. That made about $210 per hour. We should have collected about $1500.

Which, in Fun-O-Rama terms, isn’t a lot at all. We could have easily been the top class for sales should we have allowed multiple players at once, and increased the price from $7 for 14 bullets to something much higher.

And on the other side, we have the girls working their asses off in the food stall. Ice shavings!

dsc_1240-550x550.JPG

No idea how they did, but the last I check, they ran out of everything except the ice. And were reduced to selling… ice.

Other stalls worth the mention:

1. Stalls with catchy banners.

2. A $1,000,000 Ford GT in school. With no form of security. A photo of it is charged at $10, but Oops-

dsc_1263-550x550.JPG

 

3. The Dunking Machine.

And when you are desperate to end it.

dsc_1290-550x550.JPG

EPIC WIN.

Aaaaand, that should be all.

Anti-climaxs are lovely.

ACJC Fun-O-Rama XIX

I had this original plan, for many months now, to turn this blog completely into a giant shameless advertisement for Fun-O-Rama XIX.

I forgot.

Oh well. It’s tomorrow. The supposed, Big Day.

Our school will be $750,000 richer. YAY!
