The Creativity Session =) (12/3)

It was a game session this Thursday and it was conducted by Henry, the Game Master. It was a job well done by Henry as it was clear that most of the boys enjoyed themselves. It was a picture game whereby the boys were given a theme and were to draw according to the themes. There were 3 rounds in all.

In the first round, the theme was “Your Favourite Food”. There were many interesting drawings, like ice-cream, a complete MacDonald meal, bubble tea (which is also my favorite! haha), fish, roasted beef and many more. The second theme was “My Dream Girl”. Again, there were very creative drawings. The boy whom I was paired with, was so focused drawing his dream girl. He was actually drawing his girlfriend, whom he said was currently in hospital due to a leg injury. Kinda sweet seeing a guy so focused drawing a picture of his girlfriend=) And the last theme was “My Favorite Cartoon”.

After the drawings were submitted and the top 3 were shortlisted for voting, I realized that many of the shortlisted drawings were drawn by the same few boys. This means those boys really have a talent for drawing! And of course, everyone put in effort into their drawings and it was nice getting their participation.

The boy whose drawing gathered the most votes was rewarded with a chocolate bar. At this point, I observed something. One of the boys won a chocolate bar and he unwrapped it. However before he even took a bite himself, he passed it to his friend to take a bite first. I thought it was very nice of him. And after he took a bite himself, he passed it to a few other friends and so the bar was shared among so many of them. What a sense of brotherhood I thought. They must have forged a really strong bond amongst them which I believe will make them buddies forever=)

That’s about all! It’s the March holidays for them next wk so guess they can take a good break. But its tuition for them next wk too! Haha hope it did not dampen their holiday mood ;P

We also celebrated Ivy's 21st birthday at the end of the session!

WAH miss Belinda very efficient! You also wrote a long entry, lots of thoughts too! WOOoHooo = ) OK! your reward will be hosting the tuition session for next week!

I was surprise so many of you are impressed by the sharing food gesture. For your information, you are not the only one who noticed it, quite a few female volunteers were also impressed with that. Its a good gesture and not many boys will do it especially at their tender age. You are spot-on! It has to be all the buddiness forge in their dorms. = )

Anw, its a pity you had to leave first, Ivy's cake was delicious (Thx Huikoon!), but never mind la there will be next time. =)

A Very Good Entry *Clapz
