Berkelah-ers!

Berkelah participants dinner + Mid-autumn gathering turned out to be fun Fun FUN!!!

Was running with Zhihan in school on Thursday at 8pm. Even though it was late, the haze was pretty bad. We both wondered how the heck we managed to complete our NUS-Dover Rd-NUS route. Sheesh. Amazing, but true! Munchies had their 2nd anniversary, yet they closed early at 9.30pm. Woah. So in the end, we had to make our way to Clementi, where we had dinner (and he had his fix of stout).

It was then that I realised that Octoberfest has arrived! Wishing you were in Germany now with free-flow beer? Haha....

Next, had to endure 5 listless hours in school yesterday. But well, managed to meet up with some of my Berkelah participants like Phoebe, Lijun, Terence, Hong Quan, Tan Ching and Steph, my junior from my course!

But the day turned out to be better even thought the haze got worse.

After meeting the Berkelah paritcipants - Lijun, Hong Quan, Dennis and Terence at the Science Library, together with Weiguang, we proceeded to meet Grace at Fish n Co at The Glass House. Being the hungry us, we quickly ordered our food, and whilst waiting for them to be dished out to us, we photowhored like mad. Muhahaha...That's how the battery runs out damn fast even with 2 cameras present!

Jason and Phoebe arrived later, and after our meal, whereby Weiguang and Jason had to leave earlier, we finished up the food with some good 'ol games!

With too much money left over (due to some calculation errors o_O") we proceeded to PS to do our shopping for our lil' MAF celebration. The haze was getting worse and we could see lights lighting up the dust particles along the light pathway.

And the underground path was so dense with smoke! (Another realisation: Grace cannot reach the ceiling of the underground walkway even though she jumped o_O")

Shopping in Carrefour was fun! Searching high and low for our lanterns and candles...an almost impossible task that was finally done after our meticulous searching! Being non-smokers, we had to buy a lighter (as always) and we trooped to Marina Square, where we had more pictures, more haze inhaled, and realised that the skyline of Singapore became super blur.

A surprise find was a "Start" sign to the Lantern Lighting Route. Totally amazing! We didn't know that there was an event being held at the Esplanade. We set about lighting up our paper lanterns and gingerly held them with our ultra-long satay sticks...it was super duper fun! Walking down the Esplanade area with our lighted lanterns, enjoying the haze (O_O") and the friends around me...simply amazing! I'd think that this group of participants would bond more after the trek...can imagine the continued gatherings which might happen...

Whilst the others left (having Geo field trip the next day), Phoebe and I stayed for some drinks...and live band. I just needed to get myself into the mood of Octoberfest! Hahaz...Hoegaarden was great! But more people would definitely be better...More talk, more fun :)

I'm looking forward to more gatherings! Whee~ Happy, happy, happy!
