Bernardas Jankauskas, Bunk 50
14th of August, 00:00-04:00, 12:00-16:00
Finally no rain, no clouds and millions of stars around in the night sky during our night watch. Some of us sneaked into the bridge and got some sleep while others were just sitting and counting falling stars (in fact, we managed to count 62 falling stars during the whole watch). To cheer us up some of us sang their national songs. We also played a 'Horse Race' game when we were really cold. In the end we started to make up a story sentence by sentence about a sailing ship and a whale crashing into it.
During all of the time we had a lightning flashes somewhere far away, but fortunately we didn't get into that storm.
Our midday watch also was really calm and sunny (first time during this voyage). Weather got a bit more windy, so we managed to speed up a bit. We set the outer jib which had been ripped during yesterday's storm, and which the captain has now fixed.
Christiana and Caroline taught others knots they knew and afterwards we played a game where two people are tied together and they need to untie themselves.
We also had a discussion about immigrants integration and it's problems in various countries. We finally come up to a conclusion, that even if a government work to integrate immigrants to the country it will be very difficult unless the immigrants want that by themselves.
