Trans Canada Expedition - Day 0



Saturday, July 13th 2013
TCE - Day 0
Today was the gap day between the Me3 program and the Trans Canada expedition. Students overseas who are waiting for departure joined in to several activities. We began with a filling brunch at First Markham place, then headed to Mercedes Benz for a brief tour around, and picking up the new members of the sprinter family—two new seats! ---- Afterwards, students were sent to Square One for a 3 hour shopping trip. As Playdium was near by, students were sent there for more fun. While the students were busy playing, leaderships and Billy went to welcome Michael Fung from the airport. The day ended with dinner at the tasty noodle house, as everyone is busy packing and prepping for the next challenge---- Trans Canada!

We first went to Square One for “SHOPPING!” Sabrina Tan, I bought less…… that’s a good thing right?  Next we went to Playdium for arcade games! It was fun.
I’m going to miss everyone. Next year for sure!  I’ll be back…… Oh yeah, Billy will you adopt me?

Turns out that THIS is the last blog I’ll ever write in Monticle. Today, we went to downtown Mercedes.  We went in the cars and Billy took photos.  It was fun.  Then, we went shopping at Square One.  I didn’t buy anything, but I had lots of fun.  Then, we went to Playdium.  I played lots of games there, Overall, these 17 days I spent in Canada was fun. I hope I can come back to Monticle next year.

Day 15
Today was a very exciting day, shopping and hanging in the arcade, nothing special. Besides beating everybody and getting the high score for fast and furious (the racing game)

Today was very exciting. The games in the play station was amazing, I have played gun games and racing games. Also, the shopping mall was very big, I can’t finish walking it within  2 hours. In conclusion, it was a great day.

T day I spent 3-H in the second biggest store in Ontario! But the best part is when we went to a arcade called playdome and it was really fun playing table hockey. But the sad thing is that we could not play the leviathan L

Sabrina
I can’t believe I am leaving Toronto today!! It feels sad, but I am also happy that I finally could go back home. But today, some of us who are still staying went to Missisauga, a town south of Toronto. We went to a shopping mall called Square One, then to a game area called Playdium. It actually turns out that staying behind for a day was quite fun.
Anyways, I went to thank everyone in Monticle who helped me through the program.  Also, to thank my mom who kinda forced me to go to this camp with my friends from ISF Academy.

Today is the last day. We went to playdium and square 1 We played shooting and fighting games. All the fun games in square 1 are mature 17. So I can’t buy them. I ate lots of things at playdium.  Today is very fun because I didn not play video games in a very long time.

Nathan
Well, today is the last day before I, and my friends board the plane. Love staying at HQ. I really enjoy being part of Monticle. I wish I could come here next time. Today we went SHOPPING, and we went to the arcade. It was one of the highlights of being here.

  I’m leaving tomorrow! :’(  Its sad to think that Im leaving and saying goodbye to the people and friends Ive known for the past 2 weeks. The good thing is that we went to Mississauga to Square One and Playdium(play stadium) for the day to have fun before we leave. Cant believe Sabrina and Rita are leaving tonight, not able to see them until the beginning of the school year. Im actually hoping that I come back to Monticle next year and hopefully see the people I met in this camp. Made great friends and will always remember them! ;)

Today we were supposed to sleep in till nine, but I woke up in stages, hmm I wonder why. As today is the gap day from the Me3 program and the Trans Canada Expedition, we were briefly briefed and had mostly a relaxing time. After a shopping trip, and a relatively large brunch, we went to Playdium with the students while the Trans Canada students went to have a meeting. We picked up the famous Michael Fung from the airport and headed to dinner. Turns out he is a pretty humble yet interesting guy J I can’t wait for everything to begin, once again!

Marco
Today the 14 days kids went to go shopping and Playdium, while they are in Playdium playing, we were planning for tomorrow. Tomorrow is gonna be a rough and busy day.

Mike
So while the rest of the group went to Playdium to play, me and the rest of the people who are going to Trans-Canada stayed with Billy and planned on what we will do omorrow, as tomorrow is going to be a pretty buy day.
