Chalet activities
Hihi, this is Sharon, again. The results for chalet activities are out now, the following will be the compulsory-to-happen events during the chalet:
- BBQ
- Escape theme park
- Wild wild wet
- Instant-noodle dinner
- Movie screening (Huge demand for horror films!)
- Class activities (class-bonding games)
For the BBQ, I have to repeat again that we will have to pit in more money and it might exceed the quota of the chosen $20-50. I'll like to put Nareta (LOL!!!) in charge of the BBQ, as she is super experienced in terms of food (outing to Sentosa she prepared food for us leh!). And going by majority, we will be bringing our own utensils and bowls bla and Nareta say she will help wash LOL!!! No la, I will also be bringing dish-washing liquid to wash for everybody, I like washing dishes whether you believe it or not.
As for class-bonding games, I will entrust this task to Yunyi because she has alot of vibrant ideas and she has always wanted to plan bonding games for our class. Also, Yunyi if you wish to make class tee don't have to ask me, I will follow your decision one LOL
For movie screening, many people wish to watch horror films instead of comedy and sorts. I will be asking the class if anybody has violent objection towards watching horror films (like if you have compulsive thinking disorder and you will keep thinking of the ghost's face) must tell your reason to the class, and I believe the class will understand, we all very friendly one LOL! But honestly, watching horror films will let us have a better understanding of one another's level of bravery LOL so this part will be further updated
As for the allocation of beds, there are two nights and four beds, so a total of 8 people (4 boys and 4 girls) can sleep on the bed. We will be having our prestigious chairpersons, Regine and Morgan, to choose from a pile of numbers to determine who sleeps on the beds. We will also be sleeping separately because:
- Your parents may not allow you to go if they know we are sleeping together
- Guys snore omg
So on the first night, boys take the room with the beds and vice versa. This implies that everybody has to bring your own sleeping materials (bolster, sleeping bag and your lovely teddy bear). This is quite fair I suppose, since nobody ticked under the column 'I want to sleep on the bed'
As for dress code, I understand some people want to wear their bermudas like Renzhi LOL!! Since the number of people who put their votes under 'Yes' and 'No' to the dress code are equal, I suppose we will come in our own clothes, but can everybody bring the school PE shirt to change into for the BBQ night, this is good as:
- Make up for dress code
- Dry-fit allows you to ventilate as you BBQ the food
As for the part about somebody taking charge to plan food, here's a rough outline I drew:
- Day 1- Breakfast eat at home, lunch buy yourself (got food courts), dinner instant noodles
- Day 2- Breakfast somebody cater for all, lunch buy yourself, dinner BBQ
- Day 3- Breakfast somebody cater for all, lunch eat out together
If anybody has any objections/comments, please voice out and I'll make changes! As for Zhiwei's request to watching Exorcist, I'm sorry but no, because Timothy wrote: No Exorcist!!!! We will be watching less mild horror films, Exorcist is really too scary oh my. Yiheng, regarding the date I already told you it has to depend on the number of people able to go on the days, so I cannot promise you that it will be at the end of June holidays. To be honest,
BAD NEWS
If you read page 64 of February's Asian Geographic Magazine, you will see this line:
"The Downtown East holiday chalet in the eastern part of Singapore, which comes complete with an indoor amusement and swimming park, will be transformed into the official Asian Youth Games Village." omg I totally freaked out when I read this on the bus. Now, I'm certain that the availability of chalet in Downtown is rather limited, so:
http://www.costasands.com.sg/web/specialsAndPackages/details.aspx?id=5443
It's deluxe room, a package, but the terms and conditions state: "Subject to room availability. Not applicable for group bookings, and/or with other promotions, discounts or offers. Terms & Conditions are subject to change without prior notice. Studio rooms are not available for online bookings; it can only be booked over the counter at CSPR." I have no idea what group booking is, so I will be calling the resort line tomorrow to ask LOL. Should the number of people able to make it be too little and the clashing of dates is too extreme, I will put this project to an end and postpone it to December. So I'm trying to collate dates earlier in hope that we can get to book earlier and to understand the number of people able to make it, hope everyone can co-operate, and the least you can do is to get all your dates confirmed, thanks everybody! :D
