Earth Hour is only a week away!
Great beginnings
A great start to a the year 2013 for HESC!
Our general meeting took place on the 8th of March 12:30p.m. at the common area outside the Bio/Chem Lab in KPD D.
We had a decent attendance despite our meeting coinciding with the meetings of several other club and it taking place on a friday afternoon. Despite that, we had an enjoyable meeting with each other's company and bonding through icebreakers.
Vote Pikachu for president of the world!
The meeting started off with a short and simple message by the president Lim Chin Yang who gave a brief introduction about the HELP Environmental Science Club and what we did.
We can only imagine what he was looking at on his phone...
Then we had a short icebreaking session for the members to get to know each other. For our first icebreaker, we asked everyone to get to know each other and remember everyone's name. Then we sat in a large circle. Our gamemaster, Siva randomly called out a name of a person in the group and the 2 persons next to the person in question will have to stand up immediately. If one was slower than the other, punishment ensued which our gamemaster was only too happy to give out.
Our gamemaster smiling devilishly as he asked the loser, Widad to make evil hand symbols while saying three embarassing things about herself.
The hapless victim happily obeying :)
After that, we had a second game for further bonding as if the earlier game wasn't already enough. At the start of the game, one person is handed the timer and he/she will have to choose a random amount of time. This person is then supposed to ask a question before passing it on to the next person. Each person is supposed to answer the question and then come up with another question before he/she can pass it on. If someone is still holding the timer when the timer runs out, then he/she is eliminated.
The president wracking his brains for an answer to the paradoxical question "Which came first, the chicken or the egg?"
They say laughter is the best medicine for your heart :)
All in all, we all enjoyed the meeting and it was an absolute joy to see all the new faces and hear the laughter as we bonded. I will be looking forward to our upcoming club activities which will be posted on our facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/hescgoesgreen/ and our blog: hescgoesgreen.blogspot.com. HESC goes GREEN!
