Today's the day of our Student Council's BBQ cum Interaction Night. As a member of the planning committee, I arrived at school at 1 p.m., 4 hours before the start of the event. Originally, the early arrival was "in case of any last-minute changes", but in the end, it became an early Interaction Afternoon for those present, because there were other non-planning committee members who were early. I spent the early afternoon watching some of them play basketball before heading back to the Student's Lounge where I played Cluedo with a few others.
At 5 p.m., we headed to Canteen 1 as the Student's Lounge would be locked up for the night. There, we put our bags down, took our temperatures and headed to the Hall for about 1 hour of Captain's Ball (it was raining at that time, so we couldn't use the Parade Square). I'm not really that good in such type of ball games (in addition to soccer and basketball; I prefer solo or one-on-one sports like swimming, cycling and badminton). At 6.30 p.m. we ended our game and headed back to the canteen for the main programme of the day: the barbeque. It was held in the canteen itself as it rained outside. There were chicken wings, satay, stingray, corn and hotdogs, and other food available were fried rice, fruit punch and salad. (Actually the fruit punch is a mixture of lime cordial, lemon squash and fruit punch cordial. We mixed and matched to get the right flavour.) A few minutes later, smoke filled the canteen. I ate for the first half of the BBQ session and then helped out with the satay.
After the BBQ, we went out into the dark Basketball Court to celebrate the birthdays of quite a number of people (mainly those whose birthdays fell between April and June, I think). Following that was cleanup of the canteen. I was holding the garbage bags once again (I have a strange connection with cleaning up), and after clearing the garbage, we went on a Night Trail, a short walk around the school campus which we'll be leaving by the end of the year ('cause we're getting a new school campus). Finally, it was home sweet home, tired but definitely happy.
Phew...
