Shattered

It is believed to be built as a tomb for the Fourth Dynasty Egyptian King Khufu. There are 3 known chambers in the Pyramid. The King’s Chamber, Queen’s Chamber and the lowest chamber, which is unfinished and cut into the bedrock upon which the pyramid was built. The passages inside the Pyramid are all extremely straight and precise, showing how organised and specific the Egyptians were.
The estimated number of workers needed was to complete it about 100,000 people and it took 14 to 20 years to complete it. It was finally ready at about 2560 BC. The temperature in the Pyramid is 68 Fahrenheit, which is exactly the same as the Earths internal temperature. About 144,000 Mantle slabs were used to be covering the sides of the pyramids.
Science and the Arts
This pyramid is an architectural feat which cannot be replicated even with our modern technology and advanced knowledge. It has a large base and a smaller top and the slope of the pyramid is about 52°. The production of mortar used to build this pyramid has not been totally understood. Though it has been analysed and its chemical components are now known, it cannot be reproduced, even with today’s modern techniques. People have tried building a smaller but similar pyramid, but have not succeeded.
This pyramid displayed the fact that their architectural achievements and technology were very advanced, even more advanced than us today. This fact supports the feature ‘Science and the Arts’.
The pyramid has a large base with a smaller top, allowing it to stabilise. It has also a constant angle of 52° ensure that the Pyramid will not be lopsided. Compared to today, we have structures similar to the pyramid like the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre, also known as the Petronas Twin Towers. Being the tallest building before Taipei 101 was built, the tower has to have a large base with a smaller top and a constant angle to ensure the stability of the structure.

Rched the bus stop opp RGS at bout... 7.15am? Rushed into the sch. And there was this talk about CCA, sth about merit n core, and wad LEAPS... blah blah blah. Checked out the different CCAs.
Then went for lunch at Lot 1 with Farah. Actually wanted to go to Orchard, but its quite 麻烦, coz still nid to cross the road in order to get to the bus stop where the buses are heading there, then aft dat still nid to take bus back, n its quite a waste of time, not dat i really care luhz. So juz went to Lot 1 lor.
