CCA Blog: National Day Carnival

8/8 Sunday. 2.45pm report there. Set up of stalls and stuff. Held behind school.Yeah, I know, pretty late already and stuff, but yeah...

2 stalls. "Dead or alive" and "NERF". I was manning the "Dead or alive" stall. 13 cups. 10 tries. Depending on the score, you get a prize. Sounds easy yes? Haha... We thought so too... The initial scores were quite high.Then when we tried it, we had to lower down the scores or it would be impossible. Prizes were biscuits, waffles, notepads w/ calender, mini sewing kit and electric hand-held fan.

For the "NERF" stall, we used the Vulcan Nerf gun. The one in the picture. (NOTE: The pic is not mine...) Customers had to shoot down little action figures to gain a prize. This one was easier. We thought this station would have loads more people than the station I was manning. Odd enogh, the station that I was manning had more customers. Hmm... Usually one would think that a station would have more customers if the equipment was better and more attractive. Then again, it may be because the banner was more on our side, thus attracting more customers...

Games started at 5pm. Had dinner before we started. I ate Hainanese chicken rice. (NOTE: The pic is not mine... neither was it the stall's chicken rice...) Quite decent considering the fact that the amount was more than most of the other stalls and that the tickets were really cheap. We got 1 free ticket each. 1 meal, 3 games, 1 luky draw. Lucky draw ticket was given to also receive a free goodie bag.

My father was invited to the dinner there w/ Dr Tharman. One of the VIPs there. 9pm we started packing up the stalls and by 10pm we were off! My father then fetched one of my friends and I home. Some pics during the carnival below. As the camera man, I'd obviously NOT be in the photos... Those are all my friends...
