Picnic at Bukit Jalil Park with the CG peeps ;)

On Labour's Day, my CG had its very first official outing! :D Hmm... after 2 years lol. We decided to go the traditional way of having a picnic in a park, as the activity encourages fellowship with one another rather than let's say, watching a movie, which robs us of actual conversation. 

Invited the gang, but only 2 of them can make it. Well well, we still had fun :p Let me present Mean Shan and Hui Ying, the very yeng posers XD

We were there early, so we camwhored around the park LOL. Our loud voices and laughter can be heard down the quiet road; I think we disturbed those serious joggers/runners :p When we stopped laughing, all was calm and peaceful again and yeah it did get a little bit awkward...

Okie finally we got back (to 'Japan') and prepared for the photo scavenger hunt! Excited much.

Listening attentively to Kalvin and Katherine (game masters) explaining the rules and what-to-dos and what-not-to-dos of the activity.

Hui Ying, Mean Shan, Wei Chen and I formed a group and were set to go!
#1 - Do a bunny hop with an elderly person.

#2 - Do a creative pose in front of a totem.

#3 - Do a leg wrestle (okay I don't know what were we doing)

#4 - Human knot around a tree.

#5 - Pose on a staircase.

#6 - Form a P3CG sign.

#7 - Plank around a water fountain!

#8 - Act like dudes. (LOL)

#9 - Dip hand into water.

#10 - Take a picture with a flowering tree.

I love the flowers so much. Purple (Y)

#11 - Take a picture with a signboard. (China actors and dramas ftw! xP)

#12 - Find a panda inside a box and take a picture with it.

#13 - Take a picture with a 'Bersih' sign. :p

#14 - Shake hands with a foreigner. (okay technically, he's not a foreigner but he looks like one lol)

#15 - Take a picture of a cross.

I guessed that's it - all 15 tasks to be completed. I think we were one of the last groups to finish the hunt, so yeah didn't win any prize T_T

Here's Clement calculating the marks with the help from the other boys.

Chilling after SO MUCH running.

Spotted a dragonfly! Ignore the low quality though, as this was shot with a compact :( Luckily I managed to capture this in time before it flew away!

After the hunt, everyone was just so exhausted from running as every group wanted to try their best to get first place :p Therefore we were extremely grateful when it was time to eat! Munch munch munch.

Lovely scones baked by our lovely leader, Ian :p

Some of the yummy food brought by the members.

Sharing is caring hehehe~

Sooo... 'Japan' provides the perfect place for picnics and fellowships ;)

Our cosy little corner! :D

Prize presentation time! There were prizes for first place, 'Best Dance' and 'Most Funniest Dance'. Oh yes I forgot to mention that after the hunt, each group had to do a dance did I? :p

Guess what. The song was Justin Bieber's Baby but fortunately we were only required to dance to the chorus! -____-

I think this group won 'Most Funniest Dance'... XD Our leader and assistant, Ian and Beatrice, were 'forced' to follow the moves haha!

Before the picnic ended, group photos are definitely a must! :p

Our own little group :3

Last last picture before we went home :)

How to do voice-over and be a stand-upper

Switchup.TV (web portal of The Star), organised a voice-over and stand-upper workshop for those interested in video journalism. I decided to give it a go to get some exposure, plus it was free of charge too so why not? :p It was sometime in April, I remember it was a day after my A2 mocks.

I was there quite early, but luckily there were a few participants before me! Was pleasantly surprised to see Krystal, Joyce and Nicola, whom I met during The Big One, a video journalism workshop also organised by Switchup.TV under the Young News Network (YNN).

They provided breakfast (sort of, hehe) - Dunkin' Donuts and chocolate biscuits!!!!! SO GOOOOOOOD. Regretted having my breakfast at home :/ We happily happily munched these while getting to know each other. They were 9 participants altogether. Well, less doesn't mean bad...

After an indroductory session on voice-over by... umm I can't remember her name :x ... We went up to the Switchup.TV's staffroom and got ready for our voice-overs. We were each given a short paragraph and mine was about Michael Schumaker and the F1 team visiting Petrosains in KLCC.

Here's the common area. The door leads to the recording room (which is so cool!!!!!).

I did my voice-over and was pretty satisfied with it after I heard the recording. The lady said I have a nice voice and intonation, hehehehe :p

Then, we proceed to the session about stand-upping, in the same place.

Listening attentively to Zack, who was the one doing the presentation :p

Then... came the practical part. OMG I was really nervous. Each of us had to pretend we're in some place or event, and do a short stand-upping about it in front of the camera :O

Anyway... I talked about being at Simple Plan's concert XD Kinda satisfied with how I performed, mainly because I didn't stutter and therefore I only did it one time :p Here's a fellow participant in action.

This is the recording room. That's Zack!

After that it was the end of the workshop. Group photo of all of us! :D I really enjoyed myself during the workshop, because I had a hands-on experience which was really fun! Hope university is like that too :p
