In a blink of an eye, Vesak@Orchard, one of our major projects have ended. Sad to say i don't have the photos yet so it'll be posted at a later day when our other secretary wanling girl comes back :)

The event was a success! Although saturday started off rainy, it did not dampen our enthusiam! We got together and tried out the three formations, namely the Buddha,Dharma and Sangha, which were named after the triple gem.We also practised the new cheers which were taught to us before collecting our MOAT team shirt.It was very nice though a lil translucent.Balloons were pumped with helium and placard were put on.We were ready.We performed cheers for President Nathan and his wife together with Lady Compassion,Kym Ng.The Harmony Youth(Alvin,ShiXiong,Michelle and two others) put up an interesting Rap Song while we cheered them on. 9 impressive SBMY dancers (zhenfeng,alvin,victorteo,lincoln,ian,michelle,clorine,zeyan,pearly) made a great team during the stage performance.They danced to the song jiu shi wo by Lin JunJie. it really brought up the name of SBMY and drew in crowds.Once again it can only prove that buddhist are NOT boring and dull people.We are a enthusiastic and fun group who are willing to learn the dharma. jiayou! wo men yong yuan zhi chi ni men!

After all these excitement, there was still more to come.We went down orchard to spread the dharma. We got quite a bit of attention though.Be it the people along orchard learnt a lil or they were just entertained by us, it definitely proves one thing, they know and we know, Buddhists are NOT boring people.Hopefully after this, more people would be willing to learn the dharma. Through the 2 days, we walked 4 rounds.Each round started off from NgeeAnn City to forum, over to FarEastPlaza, and to Heeren and back to NgeeAnn City.Although there were many factors like the blazing sun, the uneven ground and many others, everyone managed to put on a smile together with the enthusiastic cheers.
Sunday was sunny.Although there were lesser people than the day before, Quality over Quantity.SBMYians still kept up the energy level.We rocked orchard once again!

The celeberations, despite a few lil hiccups, was still a great success! Many of us are first timers in this event and yet we did so well! "Don't be stingy, give yourselves a bigger round of applause!" More friendships blossomed and many new things learnt! jiayou!

Anyway, SBM Vesak Day is around the corner! it is on friday!
If your exams have ended, Do come around to help us at 3pm on thursday! there would definitely be loads of thins to do! Friday would be another long day so rest well! And do remember, everyone would have to be in WHITE on friday.You may wear the MOAT team WHITE shirt :) Sat is SBM Day.Please be in your black MOAT team shirt :)

that's all for now.Do rest well and takkaire of yourselves before/while you all fall/are sick.wanling and jowell get well soon :) ciao!

1000 years later, our bond would still remain unchanged; our heart will still beat as one..

We wholeheartedly take refuge in the Buddha and respect the Buddha as our teacher.
We wholeheartedly take refuge in the Dharma and pratice the Noble teaching
We whole heartedly take refuge in the Sangha and accept the guidance of the Sangha
We pledge to cultivate kindenss, to keep right speech and to do good deeds
With the blessing of the Triple Gem,
May our wisdom grow for the betterment of our conduct and study.
May our deeds be filled with loving kindness and compassion
May all beings attain the State of Calmness,Peace, Prosperity and Happiness.
Sadhu, Sadhu, Sadhu.
