Quiz Fizz Night

Today was the Quiz Fizz Night and the theme was Back to School. It's an event that was organized by the social club of the services branch. Initially when I was sent the invite, I wasnt that keen to go. In the end I decided to cause 1) all proceeds donated to charity 2) could get to know my colleagues better 3) never been to a quiz night before and thought it will be fun.

And manz, it was FUN and HILARIOUS!

Firstly, I didnt think too much about dressing up. I mean come on, where am I going to get something to wear!? My school uniform is back in SG! but then today one of my colleague couldnt wear the uniform of another person's, so it was passed on to me. So yeap, in the end, I had to dress up in a high sch uniform. LOL. I thought to myself, no big deal... just wear loh.

Then, my colleagues from the Unit decide that we will dress up after work! but before dinner! So after work at 5pm, we all went to change into our sch uniforms and went to dinner! LOL. The looks people gave us! MUAHAHAHAHA. Hilarious! I havent got the photos, but I will get some soon. Once u see the photos, maybe u can understand why people were stunned. Lol. I mean 4 women, age from 26 to 50+, dressed in uniforms is bound to turn heads. Hahaha.

After dinner, we went to the Staff Club for a drink... and got laughed at again. LOL. Crap, that reminded me I havent paid my boss for my drink... zzz. Oh well, will check with him again.

After the drink we were on the way to the library, where the event was held, when we met our leader... who didnt dressed up! the first thing he said when he saw us was... Oh my f***ing god, I cant believe this... and he put his head into his arm and laughed. HAHA

When we reached the library, people were laughing again lah. But then I can imagine it. If I was sitting at a table waiting for the quiz to start, and see this group of people come in wearing sch uniform, I would laugh too. Haha...

The quiz was quite fun. It's structured as a day class. So we had the following (that I can remember)

• 2 assignments. One is to work out what things like 24 H in a D (24 hours in a day) mean, and the other assignment is to match mascots to olympics
  
• Maths class, where we had to do some algebra, subtraction, multiplication etc
• Geography class, where we were given some really tricky questions. Cant remember much about this though. Haha.
• Drama class, where we watch extracts from videos and answer some questions. Quite tricky! they asked things like how many enemy ships did u see, how many beards were hanging at the back etc.
• Craft, design and technology, where we were given a stack of newspapers and a roll of tape and had to build a free-standing structure. The tallest one win. Ours didnt win, but it's impressively high.. about 2.16m. =)
  
• History, where we were asked questions about events that happened in... the last 2 days. Quite funny cause all of the answers can be found in the newspaper that we had used to build our structure... people were destroying their structure to find the answers. Lol.

All in all it wasnt too bad. It was $10, but for that we get free flow of beer/wine/soft drinks/water. And each table had a bag of chips, sweets, and quite a bit of light finger food (crackers, dips, ham and sausages). There were also some sandwiches at the front which I had some during our "lunch break". Haha. Oh! and we won the best dressed so all of us got complimentary cinema tickets. Hahahahhahaah. I must say that tonite was very fun. hehehe. I enjoyed it much more that I thought I would have. Hahahahaha

Whee! tomorrow is the weekend! I have group discussions from 11 to 5 I think. zzzz. Then on Sunday is the City to Bay 12km walk. Will prolly take 3 hours? o.O but the Uni paid for it as I'm considered as staff ^^. Part of the Uni's wellbing promotion program. hehe. And I got a free Uni shirt too! :) should be a fun weekend! (and probably tiring too....)
