Seminarians too, know how to have fun!!

As Singaporeans celebrated the 42^nd National Day with some parties and countdown on the eve, we the seminarians too had a party. Ours was very different; it was not any patriotic party with any political agenda but a fancy dress competition and dance party.

As the Recreational, Intellectual and Cultural Life Chairman appointed this year for the seminary, I think this is the best event I organized so far for the year other than the Easter Fiesta (where we had the Carmelite Sisters dancing with us) and the Treasure Hunt, with the help of my sports chairman (I think he is the best sports IC we ever had, a pleasure working with him).

This event saw the brothers and a resident priest – the Procurator creatively coming out in their costumes, and they were required to do a presentation based on their dress. We had Old Newspaperman, Chinese Para-Para Dancer, Magician, Hip Hop Dancer, Yogurt Seller, Liverpool Fan, An Actor from the Star Trek, Prodigal Son, his Father and the Brother, Pilot, and The Banana Tree (Mr. Bana). We also had brothers dressed as woman. Since I have a beard (keeping it long only for this year), I dressed as a ‘T_rr_rist’ (have to censor the word – cos some people get excited with it!!! Hehehe).

At the dance party, you must see how some brothers had their hair go loose!! It was nice to see the Chinese brothers and our only Vietnamese brother dancing to the beat of the BangRa and Tamil songs. For some of the Malaysian brothers including me, it brought back memories of College General. During the last song before the volleyball game, the Rector came from his meeting and joined in the dance.

Even before the volleyball game could start, we were already tired due to the dance; nevertheless we still had fun and only ended the game past midnight to the sound of the fireworks from a National day celebration nearby.

Here are some of the pictures:-
