407 Class Outing :D

Before I forget,  HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINGAPORE !!


Okay back to the point of 407 Class Outing! I finally got to fulfill my wish of playing Laser Quest after 4 years… Although it’s REALLY expensive, I suppose everyone would agree with me that is a really good opportunity for bonding and stuff, provided that we stay inside for around 20~30 minutes of course.

Anyway I forgot to being my camera on that day so for any photos please refer to Facebook or some other blogs floating around on the Internet, I’m sure there are tons of photos uploaded by now.

So we began the day with marching, community singing and a game of Don’t Forget the Lyrics in the hall. But the song choice for national day songs was so predictable that I suppose all the contestants could have studied for the songs beforehand :D That’s the reason for the extremely close scores I suppose. And the final score difference was caused by a random question of Chinese and Malay songs…

Anyway, 407 won the National Day Montage competition! Although they screened the wrong photos on the screen, I suppose Ms Kong did a good job of advertising the correct photo in the staff room :) And along with the win came a prize of Wang Wang’s, Chocolates and some random snacks, which we gladly added on to the table for the Potluck session. This being the second potluck we have had in a month (we had a “Singaporean” themed potluck to welcome the Japanese students a few weeks back), the amount of food we had was still surprisingly great! This is with thanks to the goodies kindly sponsored by Ms Sie and Ms Kong of course xD

After that we slacked around in class and in the basketball court before everyone decided to get moving. First stop: Clementi Arcade. We entertained ourselves with basketball shooting, gun shooting, and the everyone-crowd-around-the-spot-the-difference machine game. The hour spent there was not very fruitful after all…

After that we MRT-ed over to West Mall and had lunch in the food court up there. Meanwhile Givanna magically appeared in the cinema while we were buying tickets for UP before we ate. (At the same time Barnabas disappeared. We found out later that he was buying Subway…) So after the food was UP !!! It was sort of an unexpectedly funny yet inspiring cartoon. What I liked was how it portrayed the new generation of people [ “I think I don’t like the outdoors anymore, it’s completely different from what I read in books” – The little scout ] and how the scout’s life revolved around collecting badges (reminds me of the Young Scientist Cards we used to do…]

The final event of the day was LASER QUEST :D I didn’t get a bad score, but neither was it a good score… I wasted a lot of time exploring the basement because I have never been there before the other time and found the open-air roof of the basement quite a nice place to camp :D It was very fun to shoot people downstairs without them realizing where you are. This way I wasted a lot of opportunities to get points and ended up vibrating for like 5 minutes out of the 30 minutes we played. Haha.

Oh well … That’s it for the outing and the momentary ceasefire from the homework war. Ah okay I’ll just take one photo from Chua’s blog to end this post off. Bye!
