The Games people play...


Song of the moment: High and Mighty Color - Pride (Gundam SEED Destiny 2nd ED)

Today, I have learnt 2 things. Number 1, I finally know how to play Bridge. Number 2, I am absolutely horrible in trying to guess who my partner is in Bridge.

After Church today, Melvin and Kenneth took some time teaching me how to play Bridge after eating lunch at Burger King (Far East Plaza). Cari Ann was also there to get Melvin to do her Chem homework, thus conveniently becoming the 4th Bridge player. Should you be interested in learning how to play, you can visit this site http://www.acbl.org/learn/howToPlay.html which gives you the basic rules and instructions on how to play Bridge. However, what I learnt was the 'floating' version, in which you 'select' your own partner (Don't make me explain it here...I am a novice myself...).
Anyways, I won a few rounds and lost a few, but what I really need to work on is identifying my partner and working together with him or her...which is probably my main weakness.

Yesterday was my turn to cover NYP's Open House and for my article, I got a real post 'O' level student to go through the Open House game. The friend to whom I am eternally thankful to for being the subject of my article is Chia Shu Hui. Thanks a lot for coming down and be the 'not-so-willing' participant of my Open House photo shoot. As promised, I'll help you acquire whatever Fushigi Yuugi manga you're missing in your series and lend you a couple or manga from my own collection (in case you're wondering, yes, I do have quite a few 'Shouju' manga series). Back to Open House, we had a (well, more or less anyway...)fun time. Shu Hui, Melvin (who came along to join in the fun) and I walked through half (To Shu Hui: Yes, it's only HALF of the NYP campus) the school collecting stamps for the NYP 'Passport' which eventually won Shu Hui a consolation prize at he Prize booth. We also got a souvenir at the SIT booth (now, SCL can NEVER do something like this...SIT rocks!!!), a nice little keychain with a photo of the 3 of us in it.
Then later in the evening was a barbecue in Church by the Youth (well, plus Blond's and the Lay Kim/Sin Eng's family anyway...), for the Youth. Most of our seniors and a good number of the younger ones were there. The food was great (The Shepherd's Pie was great, thanks a lot to Auntie Lay Kim!!). We fellowshipped a lot (a.k.a Gossip) and had a 'great' time (a.k.a Bridge before I learnt to play it...).

Note: I'll be posting some of the interesting Open House photo shots (eg: 1 with a bunch of Naruto Cos-players) if I have the time...

It's quite interesting, some of the Games people play on you(whether on purpose or not)...especially on your mind...
