Mentors: Kazim Dhanji, Ali Asgher Rajani
We were woken up by Ali Ashger bha and Kazim bha for Fajr namaaz and 3:15 am which have now become used to. After namaaz, we got some more sleep until breakfast where we ate cereal, toast and of course some Swedish cheese after which it was time for classes. Dr Akil, the new teacher, taught us about smoking and drugs, Shan-e-Abbas bha taught us about peer pressure, Dr Mahmood taught us about patience and Ali Akber uncle taught us about sarcasm and name calling.
After namaaz, we had jacket potatoes for lunch before posing for the camp photo. After his, it was time for quran khane after which was our favourite part of the day…SPORTS.
We played Mercury in the football tournament and we won 6-1 which means that we thrashed both the junior planets. Then it was time for swimming in the river with Kazim bha and Ali Asgher bha which we enjoyed very much.
Fro dinner we had biryani which was really nice. During our pdt session, we had to identify airports cities from their codes and football teams from their logos. We also had a mentor introduction from Hussein bha and an admin intro from Hasnain bha. Hasnain bha told us he is about to start a PhD in gravitational waves and to ask him about it when we have more time; we don’t think we will ever get that bored while we are here!
For dessert, we had bananas and ice cream and then it was time for namaaz. Not long left now until the camp ends but we are not ready to come home just yet because we are having sooo much fun!!!!!!!
