FCU CHALLENGE FROM DAY 19 TO DAY 21: BUILD A HOUSE IN 30 DAYS.
MY HOMESCHOOLING JOURNAL
DAY 19 :
10 OCTOBER, 2010.
It was time to check at the shop what kind of sink, toilet bowl and bath tub that we were going to use. The head of FCU will make the last decision.
To many choices to make. It was hard to pick one !! The most trendy and at a good price was what we were looking for.
Meanwhile, the rest of FCU guys kept on with their schedule. Still with harden the soil floor process. This task needed someone with strength. Of course, I was not in the list.
Putting heavy concretes all over the floor would also help the harden process.
This task was very easy...All the form works must be painted with grease. The grease would ensure that the cement won't stuck to the form works. The form works could be used over and over again.
We had to make lots of form works since we were going to make a double storey house. As I had told before, we had changed the house plan from ordinary simple house to a creative double storey house. This meant that we would need longer time to finish the house. But we will try our best to finish it on time.
DAY 20 :
11 OCTOBER, 2010.
Hey...you little nuts! Afiqah(6) and Afiq(4) were my niece and nephew.Also members of FCUHOMESCHOOLING.Very active, clever and naughty.... Kept on asking the same question to me" Uncle...can we help you building the house?"
So..this was what we were doing every morning. My big brother was giving a briefing on the task of the day. Cameraman always around to record any interesting events.
Unite in everything was our key to keep on progress.
This outfit was the best when you were doing the form work especially during cutting process.
Everybody was very focused in their task. The deadline was very near and time was running out.
After all the floor became harden, we layered it with a thick plastik mat .

DAY 21:
12 OCTOBER, 2010.
The next step was putting iron bars on top of the plastic mat. We had to arrange them in the same pattern, just like a chess board. It took quite a time to arrange them on the whole floor.
At last, after several hours hard work, we managed to layer all the floor with the iron bars.
In the evening, we were being attacked by a heavy rain. The whether was unpredictable. It could change from a glaring sunlight day to a thunder storm with a heavy rain day. When it was raining, we had to stop working. Maybe tomorrow will cooperate with us. With the God will!!!
