Funfair

We had our annual funfair yesterday.

Sec 107 sold popcorn and candy floss,
with machines courtesy of Natalie's Dad.
It's a real blessing to have someone in the class
who has contacts for such things,
and who is willing to contribute for charity.

On behalf of the class,
thanks to Natalie, her Dad, the man who supplied the machine, and the 2 machines!
And of course, everyone who sold the food deserves 3 cheers too.
3 cheers for everyone!
Hip hip, hooray x3

Anyway, I bought a stick of candy floss
and a bag of popcorn from the class,
must show some support to the class what.
Although those are not my kind of food.
Methinks it's embarrassing for a grown-up male to eat candy floss in public (last time I did that was at this restaurant called 'new york - something' at citilink and I had to finish it quickly before anyone could see it..haha)
Yesterday, it took a lot of bugging from my class before I bought the bag of popcorn.
Actually I really dislike popcorn..
Never eat it during other times.
But hmmm, my class' popcorn didn't taste too bad actually.
Perhaps a tad sweet...maybe they put too much syrup.

But anyway, well done 107!
I think we sold stuff which appealed to the school children (I required some pestering before I would buy them, but I am oldddd and my tastebuds are different from school children lah!)
In all, our stall rocks!
We've all done our bit for charity!

I also bought --
a) a shake from 108 (my other class, so must support..and they claimed the drink's healthy, so I even recommended it to Mr James Tan);
b) a fruit punch from 111 (my ex-class, so must support too, and besides, Yujie kept asking me. anyway, she is a nice salesperson, not pushy, and smily even when people say no, so I obliged)
c) sushi from 104 (because they asked me in the quadrangle under the hot sun...hmm so dedicated in their promotion efforts)
d) chocolate marshmallow dip from 110 (because Carmen kept asking me, but anyway, I asked her to eat it in on my behalf because I was really full then and I think she'd enjoy it more than me)

I also helped out at the English teachers' stall.
We were selling good solid food,
I said solid food (not snacks) because they are things you can get full on,
nasi lemak, yam cakes, and assortment of interesting cup cakes and other kuehs on the theme of coconut,
all of them made by the teachers themselves.
Those who didn't patronize our stall missed something good...haha
