Recap of Racial Harmony Day

Well, this post is MANY days late, but I came back late on RHD due to CCA, and the days after that I kind off...forgot. So, sorry. Anyway:

I was actually quite excited about this, as I was looking forward to going to the various stalls set up by the various classes. The morning passed without major event, and soon it was time for the Secondary 2 batch to go down to the stalls.

The bazaar only got in full swing after about 30 minutes, since most of the stalls were still getting the food items ready and whatnot. I helped my class set up our stall and gave them the idea for the name. Credit to me~

Anyway, I went off to explore the bazaar and the first item I bought was some 7-up lime cordial mixture from the 2i1 stall. Then I saw many people walking around with packets of Nasi Lemak which got me HUNGRY. So I walked around a little more and found the Nasi Lemak stall. $2 a packet, which was a preety good deal compared to the total RIP-OFFs from some other stalls.

I walked past the "Operation Rainbow" booth and that was when the fun started. One of my friends was manning it along with some of his classmates, and we had to pay to shoot at targets which they were wearing with Nerf guns.

There may have been prizes for actually hitting the targets, but I aimed for the face.

I had a decent (in my opinion) accuracy rating of 3/6 shots hit, especially since it was my first time handling the gun.

The irony? I paid two bucks to shoot at the friend of mine, when I got to fire unlimited shots FREE OF CHARGE before my CCA started. The best thing was that there were 3 guns in total so some of my batchmates (and myself of course) had a shootout in the privacy of the dojo.

Oops, digression.

Back to the recap. So then I basically walked around a few other stalls, bought some food, and then it was time for the RHD concert.

Didn't really mind the bazaar being disrupted as one of my CCA mates was performing, and I was hoping for him to do something stupid so that I could have a good laugh. Despicable me. Sadly, all the performances went off without a hitch and my friend, although he smiled a little, did not do anything TOO stupid, denying me a chance to chuckle. *sigh*

So the concert ended, and it was back to the cultural bazaar for me. I bought some other assorted snacks, some were a scam, some were not. An example of a scam: 3 rice dumplings for two bucks. A non-scam: 2 rice dumplings for one buck. Two stalls, selling the exact same thing. Guess who won?

At this time, I realised that I was running dangerously low on coupons. I headed to Operation Rainbow, borrowed one of the guns, and played Russian Roulette with a friend. For those who don't know how it's played, you load a bullet (in our case a rubber bullet ;D) into a six-chamber gun, then spin the chamber and fire the gun at your head. Pass the gun to the other guy and the cycle ges on until somebody 'dies'. Then it restarts, sometimes with an additional bullets.

Then it was time for the Indian Mass Dance, which half the Secondary 2 level skipped out on. Heh. I proceded to waste another 1 1/2 hours playing Russian Roulette and messing around with the guns.

Then it was time for lunch, yada yada. Racial Harmony Day celebrations officially came to a close.

Well, that was fruitful.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed and hoping for the same program next year. :)
