My (mid)Life Story — Through Phone Photos (Part 5)
July 2014 [Part 2]: Bronze Medallion!
So I guess after getting home, it was about to start. It is my bronze medallion course which is like 5 days long I think with the exam on the last day. Got a nice 1x1x3 from the grand canyon though. Nicest souvenir
I think after the bronze med exam, I failed lol. Basically in grade 9 I was pretty nice at swimming, after passing like all the beginner (pre-pre-competitive) levels at olympian swimming. I was flat footed so I guess some parts are nicer. But I guess parents signed me up for public program where it was super easy too. Then after that I guess the usual semi-experienced swimming Ye to be lifeguard. I think I also told them I didn’t like the midland pool where I also did some pre-competitive Ye and quit after I was like 4/6 way for competitive stuff? Not sure. Ye but I failed then walked from albert campbell pool to my aunt’s house where we went out to eat dimsum stuff? I don’t remember. then we played mahjong afterwards. And that’s pretty much my lifeguard career. Basically I think lifesaving and first aid stuff is so solitude and I’m trash at it so idc. Ye.
Only took this pic of my hand cause it was so nice. Only took like 2 turns to get here (hence trash shuffling?)
Also played some beyblades more often? idk still decently nice Ye
August 2014: How I ended up in Computer Science
Well, not really.
Recorded secretly for 48 seconds for some random Ye. Also recorded nice Fifa 14 glitch own goal thing. Not really a glitch but jokes computer thing.
Also dad was fixing roof and stuff so I climbed on and got nice pic in evening. Also scout meeting thing so took pics of google maps. I guess the phone app was trasheon back then.
Also watched rory mcilroy PGA championship or british open idek. Recorded his winning shot for some reason lol.
Then the raspberry pi b+ starter kit came in!
Found out this through take your kid to work day where this other kid talked about this. So I guess got a bit interested over summer and dad ordered the kid. Ye. Lots of nice. Did like nothing except for like open the python interpreter lol. And also basically it’s just a linux computer thing and I just used it for computer stuff replacement lol. only used this for like a few minutes then left it to collect dust.
Went to pmall and saw some table tennis stuff. No idea why I was taking pictures. Then next week was scout haliburton trip thing. 1 week Ye was pretty nice I guess. Nah not really lol. didn’t take much pics.
left pic was like my finger? Finally got to 65k in 2048 when bored though.
CNE scout volunteering thing. It was ok this year. If I recall I got lots of yugioh stuff from there (opposed to Pokemon card stuff last year). Ye it was decent. Pics above was just from this moving and talking robot. Kids think it’s real. But nah just some dude in a hat directly in the crowd talking to his mini mic. Felt cool figuring out it was some old dude doing this lol.
Took some random vids in backyard in the evening for some reason. idk what is was for.
I guess that’s it. Basically everything up to grade 10 is over.
Part 6 here.
