A picture speaks a thousand words ... need I say more ? *period*

thank you all

man i'm so tired now...

monday was NP cheers soft launch, then tues was my sister's wedding, was busy the whole day, then wed was the setup at blss and rushing for lecture by KOH POH TEE, and today was the final event plus rushing for french lesson PLUS meeting for cheers.

slept less than 10 hours for these 4 days. but when the event is over i am like so happy cos it means one thing less off my schedule...phew..


but it's really worth it kk. (although u guys kept complaining that the tags i made are ugly. hur hur.. :P)

anyway i am just here to say BIG thank you to ALL OF YOU who came and play a part in this event (shan't really go into detail cos what i wanna say, johnny already did in his naggy long post :P) .

but however there are still one person that i need to thank a bit more than anyone of u, and that is still johnny :) Liked mentioned before this entry, he really did a ULTRA fabulous job when i was away. If he didn't promised me to take over when i was busy, i think team SDG will lose our momentum totally. which i feel that it would be a waste when we had already came so far..

so thank you johnny for keeping us alive! (lols are u touched, john? ) haha..


okay okay i typed so much, i'm f**king (cencored by Max to maintain family friendliness of this blog) tired alreadyyyy. i can scold all sorts of bad words now.. haha..

so good night!

will update sooonnn

love, xx.

Anymore events?

I kind of like to run this kind of events, lol... although the preparations and all that is tedious...

but seeing the kids laughing and enjoying themselves in the event... it's priceless... =)

Chee Hao is good, although during training he's like very fearful of what's his next move, his line and all that... but now he just go on the stage naturally and "say what i want to say la". And i like the idea of the FREEZE!

The gamemasters were cool too, there's a sudden change of the groupings and they seemed to be able to adjust well to ensure fairness for everyone of them, esp JJ, he managed to get the facis to play with them if the group itself has a lesser number.

Facis were quite zai also, trying hard to act friendly with them at the same time guide them to understand the underlying lessons learnt from the games, early in the morning. Most of you were like ZzZzz but still you managed to conceal it from the students properly so that they won't sian.

For people who lived v far away from boon lay, thank you for waking up darn early and help out in our event. I'm sure you had fun as well, esp seeing the kids having fun.

Thank You, Max, for doing a lot of the preparation for us, training us, help us print stuff, volunteer to provide us refreshments, guided us on how we can effectively get prepared for the event, get us prepared mentally for the event... etc

Thank You, Coleman, for teaching us the constructivism and facilitating skills, when you said it, it was the first time i heard it. As well as appearing in our event, it was morale boosting, actually i tot u will rest at home. hahaz

Thank You, Joe and Jean as well, for being friendly and training us, and putting actionpreneurs' reputation at risk by letting us to run an event under the name. lol.

Thanks BLSS as well, for providing us the students, the venue, the necessary equipment and the trust for letting us to handle the students.

so, who else i din mention... lol... XX, relax... when she came back and handle the preparation, she was like doing everything herself. "who do?" "who's doing it?" XX: "me lor"

My confidence level was acutally quite low during the period when no one was leading the team, XX was on attachment and Bryan was quite busy at times, attendance rate was low, my morale was low as well, MC not very prepared, i dunno if facis understand what are they supposed to do, do they understand the games fully?, full dress rehearsal also not very well rehearsed, meetings sometimes were not as productive... Well, from the results we got... you guys really proved me wrong! hahaha...

well, finally it's over... phew...

JTYS

Thanks everyone ... Job Well Done !!

*MAX KISSES EVERYONE OF MY BELOVED STUDENTS*

First kiss to XX and Bryan for being the project leaders. (bigger for XX since she's a girl and nicer to kiss)

Next GIANT kiss to John for perseverance and faithfulness in standing in through the whole event

Next kiss to Chee Hao for eventually coming up on stage and bringing on the show

Kisses to my guests Xue Qi, Zhi Qi, Rena, Cliff, Hui Nee and Sebastian for extending help in the most critical moments

Kisses to the quiet ones who worked without complaining JJ, Bev, Wei Xian, Wai Leng

Thank you all. Not for the mounting the event, but for proving to me that you folks are people of integrity, people who honour your words and for being people worthy of respect.

I am very proud of all of you, may you continue to excel and perform in all the other areas of your studies as well.

God bless you all !

Max & Coleman

1. Draw a floor plan, and indicate what thing to be put where. at least have some ideas of wads where.
2. Get all to-bring logistics packed. get it ready to be moved.
3. Things like laptops etc. who to bring? how many? back-ups?

that's all I can think of for now..

SCHOOL STARTS AGAIN TMR!

How to recognize facilitators and students – Facilitators handpick

MC
– create a theme
– announce grouping
– Paint scenarios - DM?
– Control time (Mr Chew gives out prizes at the end of the game)

GM
-Allocate stations
- scoreboard/ Clipboard
- Point of time to record timings to be the same throughout all the teams, to create fairness. Eg.Team 1-8 at Game 1, the time to be start recording straight after one team member touches the domino tiles.

Music – borrow from jean

Facis
- Keep digging for answer
- Personal experience
- Select a leader from each group if you think the group is disorganized, meaning everyone is talking but no one is listening to one another

Flow
- if game completed, but time’s not up, facis do something with them – it can be toilet break, cheering, dancing or listen to them
- Prepare for the next game.

Let me give some tips for Game masters... after observing people playing

Rules and instructions to be clear and make sure everyone understands
Diagrams for the games, for easier explanation
If they are not proceeding the game smoothly, "sell" hints to them using time penalties, BUT be fair and treat the same to all the teams
A card writing the body combinations for the game 2, are you being restricted
Don't emphasize on working around the rules at start
Don't be too soft, don't drop too much hints
Game 1, give them some time for them to strategise before the start of both the sets of colours
Game 3, DOMENO, 2 packets as max number of domino tiles
Game 4, Start recording when they touch the domino tiles

Jin Jie, write these combinations down on a card, so that u dun forget, and remember to bring 2 scissors on wed, for them to cut =)
Level 1
5 ears
5 toes
Level 2
1 ear, 1 ankle, 1 specs, 1 lips, 1 toe
1 hair, 1 finger, 1 lip, 1 toe, 1 spec
level 3
5 hair, 1 finger, 1 lips, 5 toes
7 fingers, 3 ankles, 2 ears
Level 4
6 ears, 2 ankles

End of Message

WE get to keep the domino tiles. so i chop! i want at least a bag of it for my games event.

Hi everybody, this is Hui Nee, reporting L!VE from the rehearsal at Ngee Ann Polytechnic, Blk 56-01-03.

Bev, John, Xue Qi, Chee Hao, Jin Jie, Wei Xian, and me came down at 9am to prepare n get ready, after which Joe and Jean came at 10am.

bev here. ho ho. anyw the participants werent here and well pretty much everyone was anxious and nervous abt J&J being here before the participants and how we were goin to conduct the games. so anyw, we did a lil rehearsal of the mceeing and they worked on the partnering part. Joe helped them out and taught them a thing or two abt bringing up the mood to the audience and atmosphere. other than tt, when the games were being conducted, somehow it went alrite with the participants enjoying themselves. thou at the do 'ME' no game, they were a bit sian because they couldnt figure out how to fall all the dominos and yet cover all the white parts. they actually tried means and ways to find loop holes in the rules. nonetheless they followed thru. so now here they are, playing the king of castle.. we ll see how the feedbck session goes.

okay i know this was suppose to be posted up earlier than thursday but noo cuz i am busy with my other organising event.

but anyws still better to update what was done than never.

Pictures of site @ Boon Lay

This is where you will enter the bomb shelter (from the left)

It's a little narrow but should not be a problem if we enter in single file ...

This is where the MC will be standing, John is standing where the participants will be standing, the 2 boards can function as score board.

Must remember to bring multi-head adapter + music CD. Boon Lay will be providing Mic + CD player. Their plugs got only 1 plug head -> so if a few laptops are being used you guys will need to borrow from me.

Now John is standing where the "stage" is, where the MC will be standing -> as you can see, the ceiling is quite short (even for me)

You folks all ready to cah-wah-bungah ? Jia You Ahhhhhh !!!!

Lovingly,
Max

rehearsal for full dress rehearsal

okay, This coming thursday (12th oct 2006) will be our 'rehearsal for our full dress rehearsal' on the friday.

Max had already helped us book a room, 56-01-02, for the whole day.

So please be there at 10am to rehearsal.

Not only the original 8, but also those who are willing to help us.. :)

Please do come down alright?? Cos we are playing thru ALL the games. interesting huh? :)

ps: The good thing is that chee hao is able to make it! haha..


lastly, the full dress rehearsal with actionpreneur will be on 13th oct 2006, this coming friday. So this makes the thursday rehearsal important!

Updates

Ok, today meeting at student plaza...

We have decided on cutting away the game "Coins Salute" and getting the number of students reduced.

However, we still need to rehearse for the full dress rehearse, yup, sounds weird but still got to do it. We need to confirm the date, the people there and the place, yup...

18th & 19th X'treme Dominos @ Boon Lay

Hi Folks,

This is getting very exciting ...
Let's put down in writing wat's happening so that everyone is aware:

1. Meeting on Tuesday (10 Oct) 10am @ student plaza for planning, checklist, finalising + rehersals (MC + Facis) called by Xian Xu.

2. Actual full dress rehersal with Actionpreneurs @ Blk 56-01-01(Max confirmed booking) for dry run of event called by Bryan.

3. Setup of venue on 18 Oct @ Boon Lay Sec TIME? (XX/Bryan pls confirm with Mr Chew)

4. ACTUAL EVENT ON 19 OCT @ BOON LAY, Mr Chew requested for 8:00am (OK with everyone ?)

Now to address individuals:
Xian Xu, dun feel bad, we understand that you're on ITP. Since you & Bryan the most gnam ones, he was the best candidate to take over, although he got tendencies to be late, I am convinced he tried to give his best ...

Bryan, to me you and Xian Xu are best jie meis, two are one ... so you leader or XX leader oso same to me. Let us know your roles so that everyone knows how to relate to the both of you, for now we assume that you cover one another.

Chee Hao, you're a VERY important person, pls let us know your availability on the dates stated.

Johnny, JJ, thanks for enthu support -> being punctual/early for all meetings so far.

Wei Xian, thanks for quiet undramatic support, need your continued cool presence to influence everyone to ai jai ...

Bev, thanks for being so supportive, continue doing watever you're doing ... it's nice having a supportive sister around to ensure smooth running ...

Wai Leng, Rena, Cliff, Xue Qi, + another girl dunno the name one -> pls get ready to do some big time acting ... so facis, if bev got to you, you would have be informed to read this, otherwise read it anyway ...

Yi mian, Sherlene, Wei Jie -> are you folks on ? We do need extra hands and legs to better support the event ? Your help would be appreciated.

Everyone, pls let me know if you need more ka-gniah, I can rope in 2 or 3 more reliable (can pniah jwee type) helpers to do head do tail if you want.

Ai Jai,
Max is around ... and so is Coleman (in the spirit) ...

Nervousness

Heys,

Good to see that things are starting to pick up again. Well that's what normally happens when the deadline draws near ;)

Too bad I couldn't join you guys last thursday, cos I was busy giving some new lecturers a hard time. Thursday was the day when all those new lecturers had to do a 10-minute lesson for everyone else to critique.

And almost all of them were nervous. Some were very obviously nervous.

All of them had to learn to manage their nervousness, and not let nervousness affect and cripple them.

One of the lecturers appeared totally confident, but he admitted that he was nervous as well, and he said he handled it by channeling his nervous 'energy' to his presentation. I'm not exactly sure what that means, but maybe it was helpful to some.

As for me, when I'm nervous, I do a couple of things:

1. Before the event, I prepare and prepare and rehearse again and again. The more prepared I am, the less nervous I get. For me, I don't have to rehearse out loud - I usually do some rehearsals in my mind, by imagining myself in the situation.

2. Just minutes before it's my turn, I may get nervous now and then, so I'll just breathe in as deeply as possible, hold my breath a little, then exhale slowly. Controlling your breathing actually has this calming effect.

3a. And when it's finally time to stand up to present or whatever, I'll just let myself be part of the moment, soak in the environment, and tell myself to enjoy myself. It's like when you're pushed into a swimming pool - you can either start treading the water, or just relax and enjoy being in the water. You can float either way, but one way is a lot more enjoyable than the other.

3b. Besides soaking in the environment, I find that physical factors help too, especially posture. When I stand straight, chest out, arms and legs apart, I don't just look confident, I start feeling confident too!

These are just some pointers that I find useful. Hopefully you'll find them helpful as well.

It's too bad that I won't get to meet you guys again, until after the event. I'll be stuck in reservist for the next 2 weeks :'(

Despite that, I hope you guys do really well, and most of all, have a great time!

/regards to the BLSS event\

i'm sorrie for my failure to attend the meeting last thursday...was super sick...tatz why...but from the blog, i know that a lot has been done.

Firstly, i have fixed the date with jean and joe for the trail run to be on next wednesday, 11th Oct, cus i won't be free for next friday.

The time will be the same as it was, from 9am-1pm

Chee Hao, can pls take off on tat day?...pls pls...it's onli in the morning. THANKS =))

And the original 8, pls sms me by this friday to confirm with me whether you will be able to make it or not. thanks lots =))

-bryan

response to Johnny

I had read the blog, thanks Johnny, Max, JJ and Bev for making today’s meeting so fruitful. Special Thanks to Johnny for reporting down to us what is being discussed. :)

With regards to choosing the bomb shelter as a venue to hold our event, it’s a good place cos we don’t have to worry about any disturbance or making any disturbance. =) But I’m a little worry that the stuffiness will cause a little disappointment to both the student and us, cos I had a fair taste of it when we had our choir practices there last time.. and becos of this, I’m afraid that it would cause a ‘no-mood-to-participate’ ambience..

So I’m thinking that the solution to this is to actually borrow a few fans from BLSS, adding on to the list of sound system, tables chairs etc etc. [ let’s settle the ‘to-borrow-list’ soon]

Next, going on to taking away coin salute and reducing the number of students, I think it’s a good idea, Johnny. Like mentioned, we dun have enough manpower, and the area is too small and stuffy for 8 groups of 10 to squeeze together to make the coins stand. Hence, I really would like to vote for a small group of student, let’s say 8 groups of 5, or even 5 groups of 5. Plus if we cut down on the number of students, we would be able to (like what Johnny said,) observe each of them in details. *After all this is our first trial run, plus we really dun have enough man power, I’m afraid that we cannot handle the situation….

Talking about handling the situation, we really need Chee Hao and Xueqi! Humph. I feel that we can’t have them rehearsing just before the rehearsal on the coming Thursday. And personally, I dun support last minute work too. So can I have you guys to meet up with me this coming Tuesday (10/10) to do a few things? :

1) Get the namelist of participate. [for this I promise I’ll go down to sch personally to ask for it. We cannot depend on actionpreneur anymore.]

2) The things that we need to borrow from BLSS.

3) The ppt for the running of the colours on the laptop for Rainbow Dominos. [The ppt die also must be done by then].

4) The ppt for the grouping of students to be flashed, so they know their groupings easily [ but this can be only done after getting the name list, so I may do it personally also].

5) THE MATERIALS and prizes! We are all going to get them at IMM Daiso and IMM giant! [ die also must get. Cannot drag anymore.]

6) Floor plan for the venue- where to put what.

7) Decide on the ACTUAL number of students who is going to participate. [if no one voices out, I’m going to make decisions on my own, by then dun blame me hor… heh].

8) And yes, we are going to rehearse, rehearse and rehearse, helping ourselves as facilitators and the two big EMCEES, Chee hao and Xueqi! Hahaa…

Yup and meanwhile this is my agenda for this coming Tuesday (10/10), and whether I meet my agenda or not, I’m also depending on you people! So please attend the meeting!

Currently I had set the meeting on 10/10/2006 (this coming Tuesday) at 10am, at student plaza (the one at the bus-stop). Any Changes I will inform u guys personally. J

Oh yah, and addressing the attendance problem, I think those who hasn’t been attending has to be ashamed! We are working as a team but only few of them have been attending the meeting so far! Though I have ITP and ‘can be excused’, I feel shameful of myself already. So I’m going to make it up but giving all the best of what I can do!

REMEMBER, it’s NOT too late!!!

Ps: sorry for being so long winded!

With love and misses from XX

BLSS

Max and i went over to blss today, then we've chosen the bomb shelter, beside the bball court, as the venue for our event to take place. Max will post the pictures soon, i hope =) It's quite big and suitable for our event, just that i feel it's a bit stuffy in there, oh ya it's air-conditioned, if i'm not wrong. we need to bring an extension over, because we need 2 laptops for the first game (colour domino), and the area only got one plug. There's a whiteboard at the end of the room, i was thinking letting it to be the scoreboard of the teams, recording down the time taken by each team. (Grouping wise... we need to get the name list asap, then we can grp them)

Some points to take note:

1. (Full rehearsal day) Joe and Jean are not available on the next thursday, so we cannot do a full rehearsal on that day, i was thinking of doing it on friday start at 9 and end at 1 latest, so we can do a little last min work on thursday. And, Joe said he's willing to 'lend' us some of his friends to act as participants, the impt thing is Chee Hao must be around + all the materials needed must be there.

2. (BLSS) Whatever we need from BLSS, email to Joe, eg how many tables, sound system, CDs? (this one i not sure, maybe we bring them ourselves?), name list of the participants, so that he can help consolidate and request from Mr Chew.Mr Chew, DM of BLSS, said that we can reduce the number of students if we cannot handle. Also, the students to be change to sec one and two councilors, we will mix them around =)

3. (The coin issue) Because of the problem of getting coins standing up and students actually crowding around a small area, plus they will need a flat platform for the coins to stand, Max suggested that we do away with the game, making it a 4-games event... That brings me back to the idea of Mr Chew's. Maybe we shrink our target audience by doing away with the coin salute?
Comments? Then, it will be 8 groups of 10 without reducing yet. Because of the shortage of manpower, i'm suggesting to be 8 groups of 5 ? one facis attach to 5 students... so that the behavior of each individual can be observed and then learning points of each students can be drawn out with greater detail. =) Comments?

4. (on that REAL day) we're gonna meet up early, because it's a normal school day for the students over at BLSS, letting them stay back to play our games is kind of bad for them, (if we din manage to run thru it smoothly) We are going to set up the game booths before that day, so it's 18th of Oct, the wed, and the real event will take place at 19th Oct 8am. 7.20 is their assembly time. (Mr Chew was even asking us to start at 7.40, haha) it will roughly end at 1pm, including prize giving, debrief,etc

5. (Attendance) I was a bit shocked by the attendance, nobody told me not coming, want dun go, all dun go la, dun fly me kite leh... lol 3 of us were there, excluding Max. JJ, me and Bev. However, we did quite a lot of stuff, least we got things planned out. Pls... pls... pls... come on thursday and the other day for the full rehearsal with actionpreneur around. If cannot come, msg me at 91913796 Thank You for your cooperation =)
