Outing to Chinese Garden - 13/12/2008

Yeah this day finally arrives!!!

Before today, we actually went for another round of rece to plan and finalized the entire operation...

Here's the nice pictures we took on that day...


Yeah!!!


Okie, back to the real day...
And yes, once again it is a bright and early morning...
(Man, I'm running out of introductions...)

Walking merrily along the footpath...



The Map...

Warning to all Chinese Garden visitors, The Map is slightly wrong...
Eh that is all I can say, you will have to discover what is wrong when you get there, so have fun being lost!!! XD

Pointing accusingly at The Map...

Group Photo!!!

Milling around... What are we waiting for??
The answer is below...




Lolz!!!

Walking towards the other entrance where the residents will be alighting from the bus...



Yes must take nice photos along the way...
Or I will go spastic...



Nearing liao...


Nice... nose grand senior...


The residents arrived!!!



So many of them!!!

Busy busy!!!

One hardworking guy at work...

Two hardworking girls over here...


And we set off!!!





Let's have an explanation on the games and activities being held on that day!!!

1) The Turtle Museum
No games in there, but plenty of fun as all of us get to see all the different kinds of turtle and tortoise...
Oh and we get to feed them too!!! Wow!!!


Damn hungry turtle...









2) Pass the Objects
The volunteers and residents will pair up with each other...
They will then randomly select an object from a bag and, and use their heads to hold that object before walking towards the finish line...
After all the pairs are done, they will form a picture using the objects they have chosen...







Smilez!!!


3) Statues Hunt
Residents are supposed to identify the statues in the photos given to them...
Each photos will only show part of the statues (like the arms or legs), hence volunteers are there to provide the extra eye needed...






4) Art and Craft
An outline of a tree has been drawn onto a piece of blank paper...
Both residents and volunteers have to collect various parts of nature to fill in the tree and turn the picture into a masterpiece!!!
(Aka leaves, branches, flowers, and pencil rubbings of the tree barks...)


Engaging the residents...



Norman hard at work...

The masterpieces!!!


Jiarong has a very important responsibility here...
Yes, transporting the work of art is no walk in the park...
You have to handle it veeeeery carefully...
Together with that solemn expression to complete the look...


After the event, all of us head to the pavilion for lunch!!!
Due to time constraint, we have to eliminate one activity (the mass game), but all of us have fun anyway...


Our wonderful volunteers helping to feed the residents...





Where are the girls??

Oh there's one...

The rest probably busy taking photos...


Donnie playing catch with the camera...



(-_-;)


And not forgetting the all important Group Photos again!!!




After the event...



Is a good chance to take photos...
(I know, aren't you sick of seeing my face already?? Too bad!!! Lalalalalaaaa...)




Happie Photos!!!





Anyway, Chinese Garden is quite a nice place if you wanna go somewhere quiet and have a nice picnic...

Just look at the sights!!!




WOW!!!


Whoops... Grey Skies!!!

For the entire event, all of us were praying for clear sunny blue skies...
And we got that!!!
But right after we sent all of the residents to their bus, the Grey Clouds suddenly loomed on top of us!!!
And a few minutes later, it started to pour!!!
Just how lucky (or unlucky) can we get!!!

Looks very romantic right... Heez...

And errmm... No comment...

We reach the MRT station near soaking wet, and with the wind is at its max...
It was very cold indeed... Very very cold...

And we actually bought ourselves some ice cream...

Defy all sense of logic...
But the ice cream was quite nice... From Mr Bean!!!

For no reason, we started to make ourselves comfortable over there...
Everybody was too lazy to move...
Hahahaa...

But in the end, we (me YL Yungle Yongfeng Donnie) get our lazy asses off and went to JE library's cafe to drink coffee and talk cock...
Nice!!! Let's do it again!!!

=D
