Happy birthday Chin Han!!



The long-awaited-for post and photos are finally up! (:

7 of us made it for this session -- Jianwen, Chin Han, Rabin, Kash, Celine, Lydia, and Daisy.

In a nutshell, the session was a success. There were some teeny weeny totally insignificant hiccups at the beginning, such as us being 30min late for session, having the staff give us a weird look for being 30min late, and having to stall time with the boys till our more-than-30min late Jianwen arrived with the games. But when he finally did arrive and we got into the mood of the game, we began to really enjoy ourselves.

The first game went like this: Jianwen would write a string of incomprehensible words on the whiteboard, which sound the same as a particular phrase that we were suppose to guess. Divided into 3 teams, we cracked our brains and snatched to answer. After many rounds of quick wits and fast responses by the smart young boys, Jianwen ended the game and invited the losing team to perform a butt dance. It turned out to be Chin Han and boys. They graceously accepted the forfeit. Standing with their backs toward us, they swayed their butts rhythmically from left to right. Right to leftt. Left to right. (: After 5seconds they were awarded with a loud round of applause!

The second game was also an english word game. Jianwen would write a question on the whiteboard but the alphabets within the words themselves would be jumbled up. We were to decipher the question and provide with an answer. Halfway through the game, Jianwen posted a question "When is Chin Han's birthday?" To which we were all puzzled. How would we know when it is? It was found that his birthday was 2 days later. The next question read "Shall we sing a birthday song for Chin Han?" And then we realised what all this was leading to...

Jianwen had sneakily arranged for us sing a birthday song for our dearest Chin Han! And it just so happened that one of the boys (cant remember his name so we shall name him "shuai ge" for now) just had his birthday 2 days earlier. Upon inviting both birthdays boys to the stage, Jianwen ordered us to sing them a birthday song and "rock the house". And we did (:

After the session, the volunteers gathered at the waiting area and had another small celebration for Chin Han's birthday. We then stuffed ourselves with dounuts, which Jianwen repeatedly emphasized he had queued 1hr for. Thank you Jianwen (:

After which we headed for -- you guessed it -- supper. And this ws suggested by -- yes you guessed it again -- Kash. Upon jaywalking across the road rather then using the nearby traffic light, climbing the sharp prickly fence rather than walking around it, and mounting the slippery slope rather than using the nearby stairs, we made it to the hawker centre. Hopefully next time Kash's stomach will allow us to choose a more glamarous route (:
