I am sitting at my computer on the final days of the Thinkquest entry - its a bit like the countdown to the Olympics themselves really. The event we have entered may not have the hype of the real olympics but from our point of view it is just as important - we set goals, worked as a team, overcame some heartache and disappointment and finally made the grade to produce a result of which we are all proud. Not unlike the Awesome Foursome (Australis'a gold medal rowing team) or the Socceroos. All things are relative - if you work hard you benefit in the long run. I would really recommend this event to anyone who has the olympic spirit at heart - achievement, doing your best, and accepting the challenge.
