AMK Jubilee settlers sessions
It's towards the end of school term and lessons are almost all done...and it coincide with the last 2 weeks of Uni holidays...what else better to do?? Play settlers for the whole afternoon of course!!
Nice to see the batch of 03 students still remember to call upon us. I guess they must have had a exciting and eventful 1st year of Uni life...but all pull through nicely. They can now face 2nd year with greater confidence. Chem Eng people can expect better performence as many of the modules had actually been covered in their programme in poly before. Suprise to SH as the only 04 student among the seniors...but she already knew quite a number of them and also join in the tours of Macau / kukup...so she did not feel awkard at all i guess.
By this time, the serving aunties in the teahouse are already got use to seeing us. But they definitely felt abit strange to see Kevin and Christof joining us too for the 1st time. One of them asked me : " These two angmoh also teachers too?" Almost wanted to tell them they are the principal and vice principal. We drank bubble teas and the 2 westerners drank American bubble black tea instead. Auntie was staring at Chriostof so hard that he even felt the pressure and almost drop the coke can.
Started playing Cities n knight game. (Advance version of settlers) ...almost gave up in the beginning but in the end preserverance pull me through...just need 1 more grain (Wheat) card to win (13 points) ....but it was not to be. SL took away my longest rd points the next round and cross the finishing point 1st.
Then I played cards / dice with Pris / cutie / SH...SH being the newcomer is eating the jellies non stop almost. Then she realised why we only took a very light lunch.
The next day Anna wanted to play before she starts work in school (by then she needs to take leave to play..which she definite don't want). Asked HR/PB along and recalled ML /JH (the pioneer batch CBC students also necer played this game before. Called them up and they are also happy to join in, but they also get RHN / Alicia to join in too.
So we ahve another 8 players session at the teahouse. Anna took care of the jellies well and JH like the nuts...I think she will remember to skip lunch if she ever wants to join us again.
The 2 grads who started working have since matured alot...even to the point of started cheating me in the card game. My luck was really good and never had to eat a single time..and they decide to do every thing they could to make me eat. I was really suprised the whole table cheered when RH declared 24 as the bomb. I wasn'nt even calling that number!!! Anyway...it was so long since we sit down to chat...and it's good to see them being so sporting..(or unsporting..??) :)
