CHUIGUAN BARBECUE!

Whoopsie that (points a twisted finger at the previous post) was rather astounding. Astounding to be coming from such a ever-crazy me. Never mind. now you know.


CHUIGUAN BARBECUE TODAY!
was a whole lot of tremendous fun! Simei (note i'm not even calling you baomeili here!) and I were quite delighted with the attendance today, honestly we weren't expecting that many seniors to come back!
Basically we spent a whole late morning - afternoon sitting at the treehouse and barbecueing. Oh and some people (points an accusing finger jokingly) went to the arcade.
Let's start from morning shall we? : D
Went to fetch yuyue at tampines MRT, then mum and dad gave us a ride all the way to Club CSC @ Bukit Batok.


OH I MUST QUOTE MY MUMMY HERE BECAUSE IT REALLY IS A QUOTE WORTH QUOTING AND REMEMBERING FOR AS LONG AS I KNOW MY DEAR SIMEI. :D

the first thing mummy said when she got out of the car sent yuyue and I crashing into each other with laughter. In fact we were sort of crashing into each other with hysteria the entire time we were together? Ah. Anyway mummy must've heard me talking to simei on the phone SO MANY TIMES that the moment she got out, she asked "eh where is BAO MEI LI ar?"
AHAHAHAHAHA. We then pointed to simei who was waving both hands (and looked more like she was flailing about) when we showed her the tray of fried rice.

Then we sort of started going crazy again 'coz we saw boss sitting next to siyun (sister of bao mei li!) with a huge 4kg bag of charcoal in front of them, and we realised that boss came super early due to my very regrettably inaccurate sms and she had to lug the charcoal into the toilet with her. And then blur boss thought that yuyue and I were at SIMEI'S HOUSE because when lingyan called yuyue and I, we told her we were still on the way at SIMEI (the place with eastpoint, the mrt, hospital, fire station, expo, you get the picture) and so lingyan told boss verbally that we were still at simei. I laugh.

After everyone came we went up to the treehouse, took a super long time to get the fire going, finally got it going with the muchly appreciated help of si yun (my fellow bollywood-er!) and yuyue (the pervert whom I never thought had so much knowledge about fire-starting). The rest played cards (ahem.) and some helped too.

Simei yuyue and I (THE PERVERTS THREE!) were sent down to the poolside cafe to buy a lighter. I was feeling rather lame so while simei touched and touched the ice cream in the huge fridge, I slid the other fridge door open, grabbed a whole chunk of snow-like ice and stuffed it down yuyue's shirt. So it was sort of an ice fight with simei asking about lighters and everything in the background, with me screeching and yuyue doing a crazy impromptu jelly-man MAMAMADANCE.
Once we got the lighter we couldn't stop doing our new MAMAMAMADANCE and it somehow inspired yuyue to play hai dai. At first we were doing very weird and poorly coordinated hai dai and then while waiting for simei who went to the toilet, we came up with a CHUIGUAN SENIOR VERSION haidai which really was so hilarious and crazy that when simei came out and siyun came downstairs to give us money, they must have though we'd gone mad.


--------pauses to watch my dog kill a baby lizard. So that's where those black rotten baby lizard corpses surrounded by gooey liquid came from. Go doggie. Catch the nasty lizard.---------------


Our haidai game continued! We managed to get really funny candid shots of people and abit of camwhoring with ching : D Meanwhile there were quite alot of people huddling around the pit trying to get the fire to start. AVA PEOPLE CAN GET FIRES GOING OKAY. : D
Then people went to the arcade, while si yun and the rest of the current CO members (minus brenda) stayed back to help cook the food. The bbq-ing itself was quite enjoyable 'coz we were talking loads of crap and having fun being crazy and everything. face it, we're just crazy. AT LAST we managed to cook the prawns and sausages, the seniors came back to help and we were pretty much on our way with the food. But it was really really tough keeping the fire there, dunno how yiying's dad does it so well with only the help of her mum during our annual banana bbq chalet gatherings. (:
Food was good, but I barely ate. I think those people who spent most of their time at the pit didn't have much of an appetite after MINDING and STARING at the food for hours.

Yixin and I came up with a new sport- PEA-THROWING!
People who are frequently irked by the vast number of peas in your fried rice, fret no more! Grab a pea and toss it at the nearest head you can find.
So during lunch simei yixin and I started throwing peas at boss because she's such a good target to practise aiming on, and moved on to even further targets like lingyan and the juniors who were right across at the pit. One of them got lingyan on the forehead. >: O

So after that more people went home, some stayed to play cards while the rest of us tried keeping the flame going and cooking more food. It rained and we all quickly grabbed umbrellas to protect the pit as much as we could (and it worked!). Then we played siyun's scenario game which was pretty hard to figure out, cleared up the stuff, took a cool group photo with the measly bunch of survivors who stayed back to clean up, and went home. WAHAHAHA.

And yes- it's kudos time! (many many thank yous and muchly appreciations.)
Kudos to simei and siyun for marinating the chickins and bringing so much food, and lingyan as well for the much-needed advice on barbecueing!
Kudos to si yun (the bollywood one!) for helping out SO MUCH with barbecueing and especially the fire-starting and cleaning up. Thanks!
Kudos to yuyue who pointed out that without fire starters, we wouldn't be able to have a bbq. And for making me get so unbelievably high and crazy that I almost peed in my boardshorts.
Kudos to boss for lugging the 4kg of charcoal and having such a smart brain (ha!) to go to Giant instead of NTUC to buy the charcoal!
Kudos to the sec ones- claire, anqi and yingbao who helped us cook and shelter and grease the food all the way!
Kudos to stacey for being one of the exceptionally good cooks and providing us with loads of knowledge about stuff we wouldn't have known about otherwise! And for the heavenly brownies : D
Kudos to jiaqian esther and yixin who also stayed throughout to help cook and go nuts with us!
Kudos to the seniors who made time to come and help!
Kudos to everyone! for coming and hope yall had a fun time! (:

photos will be up as soon as I can upload them!
