Started this blog to share the gifts lying in my house from all parts of the world, but decide to merge this with a blog that tells of the certain occasions that I participate in - with amigos :)And some of the events that I feel close to my heart.
Event: SDN Birthday Bash 2010
Rating : 10/10
Comment: I'm glad I did not miss it out for the fear of being stereotyped as being despo - SDN events never disappoints me - I always have such fun -
A brief about SDN
Social Development Unit (SDU) was formed in 1984 to promote marriages among graduate singles, while Social Development Services (SDS) was set up in 1985 to promote marriages among non-graduate singles. The two units were merged on 28 January 2009
On 16 October 2009, the unit was renamed Social Development Network (SDN). This new name reflects the organisation’s aim to forge an extensive network of singles, resources and partners and to create an environment conducive for singles to meet and forge meaningful relationships.
- In Oct 2009, 7 other people ( 4 guys and 3 girls) and I were selected to represent in a "Dating Challenge" to promote the new unit SDN where we participated in various activities and were updated in the newspaper. Out of us 4 couples, 1 of them have been dating and is planning of marriage ( smile) and another guy have gotten attached. Through the SDN committee, I got to realise that people fear in joining the SDN activities because they fear of being labelled as despo - but come on! Just have fun and enjoy the activities and that of making new friends. (Its an even better way than clubbing!And you get to even make conversation.)
Here's a snapshot of the event :)
They began with a few games which was really refreshing
1) They gathered similar number of guys and ladies on the small stage in the center of the crowd of people via their birthday months and then made them sing a duet. It was so cute!
2)Next, they gathered 4 guys and 4 ladies on stage where the guys were made to dance to "Sorry Sorry" by Super Junior and the ladies to dance to "Nobody" by the Wondergirls - Really famous Korean songs.
Both groups were so sporty! And they really danced their heart out!
3)SDN Pageant - which had the selected candidates voice out their ideals
And after taken picture with Ms Ada Wong - One of the founder for
Dating Loft
4)And the final game which had a rolling rubber big ball - where we had to roll the ball around and were promised cruises and washing machines - if one catches the ball. Imagine that. We were so excited. With the winners of the stage, the twist was introduced - which made me doubled in laughter - the cruises were that of the rubber float ; the washing machine were that of olden days clothes scrubbing board and so on. It was hilarious to see everyone's expression.
And to end off the party were some very good singing groups that they invited - I cant remember their names but they were fantastic! -
and the big birthday cake!
SDN really has a great support group.
Also in this post, I want to thank SDN for the wonderful experience i had when we were selected for the Dating Challenge. I had so much fun injected in my daily life and was able to do the things I wanted to do but did not have the time to do so - Sandcastle Building, professional photo shoot with make up artists, Laser Gun and Pizza making.
Professional Photo Shoot - Sponsored by The New Paper aka TNP
Where we were taught about grooming and makeup
The Sandcastle building - http://www.castlebeach.org/
Where we were taught that relationships needs to have a strong foundation and needs both parties to work together and compromise sometimes
The Laser Gun quest - http://www.combatlasersingapore.com/
Where it taught us to work together as a team - it was so fun.
The Pizza-making - Where it was held at Exclusive match
And last but not least, the friendship we made. The unknowns who have bonded and become friends.
There is a party coming up - if you're interested! :)
