Day of Fun.

Main Game played : Shi Zhi Lu Kou (Chinese Eating Game)
Game instructions & objective:

Firstly, the name of the first dish will be given. Let say Ji Fan [Chinese pronounciation of Chicken rice]. Teams have to raise around the neighbourhood to search for this chicken rice dish. Buy it and eat it. Then, they have to continue to buy another dish by using the last word "fan" as the first word of the next dish. Eg: 1st dish - Ji Fan. 2nd dish - Fan Chai. and so on and so for. Teams must eat 4 dish in total before they can get to know what's their final dish. So after finishing 4 dishes, they have to call the "angels or Tian Shi" or the gamemasters and report to them to get their clue to the last dish. Before they get to know what's their last dish, they would be given 3 cateogries of questions in which they must choose one to answer. If they answer rightly they can get their clue for the last dish. If not they would have to do a forfeit before we finish our last dish. In addition, teams must eat another 2 dish before they can end off with the last dish.

Well we started off with 3 teams. Jaryl, Jun Kai, Karista and Emily - Team A. Seng Huat, Chua and Pei fen - Team. John, Kenneathe and Wan Yi - Team C. The first clue was : Rou ku cha (chinese). In hokkien : Bak Kut Teh. Its basically a meat -based soup. The teams raise around Toa Payoh to find this first dish and their subsequent dishes. In the meantime, Janet and I .. the gamemasters aka Xiao Tian Shi went aroudn to get gifts. We bought some gifts at Watson before the teams arrive. Well to cut in short, all 3 teams answered the question rightly and got their final dish with ease. The final dish was "Cha You Tiao" which is something a chinese fried dough stick.

During this time ... that is to find out where we are and report back to us. We devised 3 sets of clues which they have to choose a set to help them locate us. The general clue is that we are at Jurong area. This part of the game gets very interesting ... We are actually at the Cafe of our church.

The 1st set of clues is colours - which are blue[the fountain], black[black tiles], and white [walls and chairs]. As u can see, this set of clues are not helpful at all ... so teams who choose this clue first ... well God bless them. Ha.

The second set is sounds : So... we make a psssssshhhh sound on the phone [sound of the water in the fountain of our church]. And followed by the chatter noise in the Cafe. Lastly is the sound of a waiter serving a customer in the cafe ... acted by Janet and myself.

The 3rd set of clues is Objects. First object is toilet. Second is plants. Third is a black box - emitting light.[ which is a TV set].

So teams have to choose either 1 set, and if in 20 mins time they couldn't find us ... we will give them the 2nd set ... and if in another 15 mins they couldn't find us ... we'll give them the last set of clues. Well, this isn't so hard ... given that they should know where we are when they chat with us .... cos the cafe we are in is very noisy .. plus by common sense ... they should know that there can only be 3 places that we will be in. Chua's place .. Jurong point shopping mall or Church. So after we given out all the clues, the 3 teams found us. actually... the first 2 teams who found us exchange clues and work together to locate us. Haa.

Next we play 2 indoor games at Chua's place. Agree-Disagree game and an acting game.

Agree and disagree game will be played like this. Gamemaster says a theme : for example X'mas. and then she'll say a word like eg: Bells. If you agree its related to the theme , you do a agree sign ... which is to put both hands together over your head - like a mountain shape. If u disagree, you will have to cross your hands to make the "x" sign. This game is pretty fun because as the game goes by ... many people can tricked .. when they show the sign too rashly. But of course the game requires you to make the sign fast .... As the game speed picks up ... more people are caught with the mistakes. Guys/gurls with 2 mistakes are automatically eliminated from the game. A goood and fun game!

The acting game requires teams ... so we form 3 teams .. 2 guys... 1 girl team. Teams have to line up in a line with everyone facing the front .. front to back/ front to back. Then the 2nd member has to use action to guide the first person to do an action ... and from there .. the first person must guess what he/she is doing. Also a very fun game ... especially when we see the girls team jumping around to get the message across to the person infront. Haa

Ha i am really very very very tired. I am gonna cut this short. We eat our dinner later. Watch the famous movie .. Shrek and finish off by watching some of my cell group mates perform a skit. Then i walked to Boon lay mrt station with my friends. I can say that this outing is very very fun.... and the 2 friends i brought also agreed with me. Haa ,... jsut wanna thank the organisers .. and of course God for making everything run so smoothly. The whole outing was phenomenal.
