Year-End party

Its exam period for the ntu peeps but to the boys at the home, its the year-end party period! 5 blk D volunteers-Zhengxin, Khalisah, Meixiu, Shawn and Kelvin decided to take some time off

from mugging and destress at boys' home.

It started with a buffet dinner which was expected...but wad was unexpected was that the officers were serving us and the boys! So paiseh la, reminds me of ns cookhouse where the aunties served us. Then saw the block manager and the home-in-charge during the dinner. They sat down with us and interact a bit, telling us that the home-in-charge was also from ntu mechanical engineering, graduated in 1997. Oh well, so MAE graduates dun have to be an engineer in the future after all.

Then comes the long awaited performance from the boys!

First up was football juggling, and some break dancing with the balls. It was entertaining for everyone especially the break dancing part. However, the performance was relatively short. It ended when i thought that it was reaching the climax.

After that was the acrobatics segment. Boys performed walking with spring stilts and diabolo(below). They really impressed me with their performance. It shows that the boys can do something really well given the right training and interest. It was the highlight of the night for me, it was encouraging to see the boys having fun with new hobbies so much that i would like to try it! Some thoughts during the performance, we volunteers should try to learn something that the boys do...like break dancing, singing and play sports to better interact with the boys. During the camp, we should show them that we are studious people that could also play hard when it comes to playing, and not only good at achieving academic results. So for volunteers who wanted to show their talent during the camp, please contact Zhengxin! :)

Lastly its the xmas caroling by some church grp. Oh, nothing much to mention...cause im almost half asleep! Blk D camp 2010 is coming up in 2 weeks time! Hope everyone is excited about it and dun forget about the pre-camp gathering on 27th Dec! Rmb to bring along an xmas present for rsp youth post-xmas gift xchange! No restrictions! anything will do, its for the feeling of receiving a present from a unknown person! Do RSVP on Facebook if you have not done so! It will encourage ur fellow volunteers to go! Thanks!

Oh ya, tml 16/12/2010 is Meixiu's birthday! HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY! even though its exam period, but ur birthday wishes will still come true! if you need us to make it come true, pls tell us also! we will do our best-est! Good luck to all having exams too! Persevere through!
