as promised. gonna share w ya all bout our jamiyah home outreach last sat :)
it was loads of fun! our cg prepared a game for the elderly - MUSICAL BALLOON. the elderly were really enthusiastic! some even sang melodiously for forfeit! :)
other cgs put up song performances and played BINGO with the elderly. it was a really fruitful time :) you know. the 'i love u. u love me. we are one big family...' kind of feelin. gee :)
and as promised.....!
i will share bout TAMPINES TAN.
brace urselves ppl..
here goes...
aft the outreach. we went to a nearby coffee shop to lunch. interestingly, the coffee shop is called 'JURONG CAFE'.
reminder: we were at tampines.
brilliant xinying genuinely & innocently suggested that perhaps JURONG is the owner's name.
...
...
...
so.
as a polite response i said,
'where got ppl name themself jurong one?
can u imagine ur name is TAMPINES TAN XIN YING..
u can have tt as ur baptism name.
then pst can say
'TAMPINES TAN XIN YING,
I BAPTISE U IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER, SON AND HOLY SPIRIT.' '
aand there u have it.
the birth of tampines tan.
even though the mystery of 'jurong cafe' was never solved, we had the honor of naming our dear frd tampines tan. and its origin is not a mystery at all. :)
also,
another weird thing happened to xinying. she seemed to be the highlight of the day huh.
on our way to expo, at city hall interchange, when lots of ppl alighted...
there was an empty seat near us.
rather rare as its peak hour.
THEN,
an elderly man with white hair tapped xinying on the shoulder and OFFERRED her the empty seat!!!
???
???
no one understood why.
and the uncle was quite persistent. he asked xinying 2-3 times...
hmm.
NEXT UP!
OUR HAIR EXTENSION TRIP!
as we had 3 hours to kill before 530pm svc @ expo, we decided to go far east to get hair extension.
(apparently the hottest new trend in town)
really cheap.
only $1 per strand.
so with our new look, we headed to expo for a wonderful STONY svc.
(those who went svc would know why)
:)
so tts all for e second post in my entire life.
more to come :)
cheerios
