Yoonoh was proud of himself, content, for he had managed to push his limits and interact with many of the boys in his sub-group, including the one with whom he had first met eyes with.
He learned that though he also went by John or Johnny, his Korean name was Youngho, and that their birthdays were very near to one another's. He also discovered that Youngho was two years older than him and had joined the scouts at Yoonoh's current age, thus making the former one of the teen leaders of his bunch assigned by the adults.
Yoonoh understood that Youngho was an extremely cool guy. He could speak English well since he was born in Chicago, all the way in America － something which greatly impressed him and other few newbies － and he was also well-versed in all things about nature.
Whenever it was time to eat, Yoonoh would pluck up all the courage he had buried in his tiny chest and walk over to the older, asking to sit beside him in a meek voice that occassionally cracked with nerves. Youngho never turned him down and would instead smile fondly, nodding, and often try urging Yoonoh into a conversation with the other boys.
Once the younger had gotten more at ease around him, he'd sometimes ask Youngho to show him how to tie pretty knots, and the latter would oblige, taking off his shoe-laces to use as examples.
Yoonoh wasn't aware of his own expression, but his eyes were utterly fascinated by the senior scout who knew so many things and treated him well, so he'd watch his every move with glittering irises and a focused gaze.
His third entry was about his day at school, but also about how incredible his scout group's leader was.
