That eventful saturday

This is the event I've been planning for for the last few weeks! We fashioned a game based on Settlers of Catan, where teams aim to win resources. They win resources by competing against one another in mini zone challenges. The zone challenges we played were hilarious. One of them was sudoku, another was a game which revolved around catching a shuttlecock with a vanguard hat, another was an eating game (they surprisingly attacked the cucumber with gusto)...

Once the teams earn enough resources, they can build a settlement. Each settlement requires at least 2 ore minerals, wood and brick resources. Each road requires one of each, and a city is defined as 2 settlements separated by 2 roads. Sounds nerdy I know, but heh I thought it was a pretty good idea. And people enjoyed it!!!

I don't actually have pics of people enjoying the game, but here's the board game!



Actually, the Barnabas leaders were surprisingly competitive. Almost scared me at one point when they started to accuse the judges of judging wrongly.

We also had a bbq after that at East Coast Park, and Jiasheng brought his 2 very cute twin nieces. Spent a large part of Saturday night playing with them on scooters. Here's Grace =)






Finally saw some people I haven't met for the last few weeks / months. There's Dickson (he's finally gone into NS and gotten his head shaved). And there's the elusive Steve, who had a really good talk with me on the same thing I discussed with Bipeng. And there's Joelle... had a cosy gossip session with her too. And did a good supper with Steve, Louis and Jiasheng after that at Siglap's very own Mas-ayu =)

Good day.
