the activities kick off the moment the befriendees arrive and after a brief introductions and spliting of teams, we have our first game which is "Chang Er, Yu Tu, Hou Yi". it was played with actions to be done in the style of the traditional scissor, paper, stone. All of us have a good laugh as it is funny to see each other doing the actions.

With the help of the befriendees, all of us get to keep the logistics stuff fast and headed back to Sunshine Hall for our MoonCakes.

This event is a simple yet successful one. To see that everyone is having so much fun while playing and the helpfulness displayed by the befriendees in helping to clear the logistic really brighten up my day. After all, it is not just as supporting them but rather a mutual support. With this i would like to say, Mid Autumn 08 Celebration was a success.
