Last Sunday we finally had our kid's carnival.After 1 year of hiatus,they decided to bring the atmosphere back in church.

When I reached church at around 10.15am,most of the event has already started.The kids were having a game of captain's ball.

Everybody wants to take a photo with the purple monster.

The youths with Fe...I mean Barnie.

One of the main highlight of kid's carnival will be the dunking machine,as in who will be the chosen one to be dunked?

Photobucket Image Hosting
Here we have Junwei getting ready to be dunked...by the youths!

The reaction when the youths "betrayed" him.

No,Junwei,they're not betraying you.It's their form of showing their love,care and concern towards you.Get it?Haha.

Everybody tried in vain to get Junwei down the water but failed eventually.

After several tries from the youth,it was Ian who managed to dunk Junwei into the water.Impressive indeed!

Next up,we have Pastor Chee Khim.

Pastor Chee Khim seems to draw even more crowds than Junwei.Wah,all of you really love your pastor so much until you all spent $5 for 3 tries ah.

So who dunked the pastor?It was one of the visitors that someone brought.

Ian is super sharpshooter loh!He dunked every single person sitting on the hot seat except for his dad(Pastor Chee Khim).This shows that blood is still thicker than water.

Minesweeper game.Lonely,very lonely.

At least James came here to support the game.

Photobucket Image Hosting
Another lonely hit the can game.It was played,but it's free.

Photobucket Image Hosting
Shoot the burning candle game.

Photobucket Image Hosting
2 years ago,we have the shootout.This year the game is back!

Photobucket Image Hosting
Obstacles are much tougher than last time.More complex,more attraction.

Taking his aim.

Photobucket Image Hosting
Waterbomb.Seriously I don't know what's the aim of this game.


Photobucket Image Hosting
Console games are forever the oh-so-popular spot in the kid's carnival.Here they are,playing with Nintendo Wii.

Photobucket Image Hosting
They have games like Mario Kart and Mario vs Sonic Olympic Games.

Aiyoh!So cute!

So what is kid's carnival without the food?Of course we do serve lots of yummy food.The popular hotdog bun sold out super fast when I came to the store at around 11am.

Photobucket Image Hosting
Bee Hoon store.

Photobucket Image Hosting
Fried rice store.

Photobucket Image Hosting
This is our store.We are selling bee hoon too.

Photobucket Image Hosting
Mouth-watering chicken wings and bee hoon.

Actually hor,there are 2 stores selling bee hoon,1 store selling fried rice and 3 stores selling chicken wings!So where are all the wide varieties of food?

Photobucket Image Hosting
Store selling muah chee and otah.Kinda weird combination I would say.

Photobucket Image Hosting
This store deserves a thumbs up!First of all,this is the most important store ever - the drink store.Secondly,they took a big effort to actually decorate the store banner.It's very attractive.

There was a captain's ball competition going on at the carpark.

Our Queenstown HGC got knockout during the first round.It was a close fight with Punggol HGC.If only they didn't sub Pastor Chee Khim inside their team we could have won.

Well,even with James we couldn't win the game.This shows that captain's ball is not about one strong men in the team,but it's about teamwork.Our HGC lack of the teamwork,and our group consist of 3 girls and 2 guys.Where's Ivan and Alvin when we needed them?I could have let Felicia be the ball catcher while me and James handle the match.

Arrggggg!!!!So many thing just ponder on my mind.Anyway,it was a good game.With more practice,we shall take the challenge again.

At first the game was played with balance of guys and girls,until at the 3 team round robin match it was mainly a guys' game.

So who won the captain's ball?

Photobucket Image Hosting
It was the TUF.Ehhh...Eugene consider TUF ah?

I did not came home empty handed.I was in my impulsive shopping spree and bought something in church and Vivocity.

Photobucket Image Hosting
From top: A handmade turtle($8),a polar bear($2!) and a box of mooncake($26).

I like the polar bear because:

1. It got a sleepy eyes.

2. It's white in color and I like white animals.

3. It's fat,cuddly and cute.

I had to put Polar(the white beast)and Java(the handmade reptile)in a safe zone so that my nephew won't take them home.

The carnival is not as happening as last time.Mainly because of:

1. Some unoccupied space for inspirational store.I personally think scope the goldfish was good,but the goldfish eventally died after the whole event.Maybe should provide some oxygen tank for the fishes?

2.There are some not so fun store which was left abandoned.Should not have put in the mindsweeper which becomes a place for gathering and chit chat.

3.Unoriginal food store.As I said earlier,so many store selling the same stuff!We should add in ice-creams and brownies and maybe exotic food store.

Anyway,good job to the organizer and well done!I believed everybody enjoyed themselves getting good deals and dunking your best friend/pastor in.I hope to see more happening stuff in the kid's carnival next time.
