Deepavali; and we're working!

Happy Deepavali!!

While almost the whole of the nation went out eating muruku and nasi briyani, six of us Guides (Jess, Bernice, Tessa, Zara, Chin Ying and me; Vanneeda) went over to Jessica's apartment to get some work done.

The meeting officially started at 10.20 am.

We planned out the banner and did some work on the mascot.

planning out the banner. (with my handy dandy notepad! xP)

all those are preparations to mache the mascot.

preparing recycled paper!

At around 12pm, we got hungry. And let me note, there is NO food in that apartment. So I called my mum to bring over some money for us to order Dominos. She brought chicken rice for us (and chalk)! xP

So after lunch, we really got started on our projects.

And Chin Ying came soon after with the most beautiful pot of starch I have ever seen in my life! x3

Tessa, Bernice and I worked on the welcome banner(s) while

Jessica, Zara and Chin Ying worked on the mascot.

the mascot was done being mache-d and Zara and Tessa painted one of it while the other dries. Meanwhile, the rest helped with the first welcome banner and planning out the second.

soon enough, all helped with the banners.

after eight hours of almost non-stop working, we decided to take a break. At the playground!

after our light dinner, we went back to the banners again.

more pictures from this meeting coming!

stay tuned!
