haven't seen them for a really long day... and i finally successful got myself out of the house after much delay and all... met cherie and szemin at es teler 77 for lunch.. ate pretty interesting stuff.. after that, we went to takashimaya to sample the mooncakes and all.. this is the 1st time i've ever put mooncake in my mouth.. well, i know i eat a lot but there's a lot of things that i do not eat as well..
left at about 430pm to go to st. margs for my church's mid-autumn fest.. did a major jaywalk in order to catch my bus and all!!! goodness.. got there just on time... anyway, uncle edwin paired me with joan for this particular game... titled bowling.. yes, i know the name is really boring but it's an amazing game!!!
it's bowling with a twist!!! instead of having the chance of having a bowling ball and pins, you have a coconut [with its juice extracted] and 6 filled mineral water-bottles!!! oh yes, and the starting point varies with age.. the younger you are, the nearer you get to stand towards the 'pins'... the older you are, the further you are... this is so cooL!!! seriously!!! you may say that i'm nuts and all.. but doing games for kids is one of the best things that can happen to you.. indeed it is tiring.. you have to maintain an energy level that is higher than that of the kids.. you have act like a kid and yet to be loud at the same time.. but seriously, it's one of the stuff i really enjoy doing and all...
oh yes, the reward of the game is a character stamp... erm, it's the ones that we used to buy when we are kids.. and we would get so excited over the different types of characters and all.. that's exactly how the kids were feeling today.. daniel kept coming back to our station and was going on about how he will aim at my head instead... isabel assumed the role of picking up the 'pins' and the 'ball' after each throw... *laughs*... had to coax some of the kids.. and teach them how to play and all.. right!!!
and boy, it was hot!!! not just from the prespiration but also from the heat that was radiating from the brick parade square... my goodness!!! after the whole game, joan and me just stood there, trying to feel the breeze on our faces... but it's really minimal.. she was commenting on how people might mistake us as worshipping God... but think that it would be really good thing to do as well!!!
anyway, we finally 'closed shop' at 7pm.. by then, the coconut has suffered pretty severe injuries... jawohl!!! es ist KAPUTT!!! du kannst nicht es noch benutzen!!! yah.. so we must call it quits for the game.. both of us were so tired.. must be all the jumping and running around.. the hype we tried to create for the kids.. gosh, must be the age man!!!
and i've got another children event tomorrow morning.. hmm, i think i better start conserving energy now.. else tomorrow, will bound to lose out to the kids in terms of energy...
