The article : Tea Time with Buddies

Have you ever attended a tea party with a group of vibrant and energetic "special" individuals? On the 20th of September, the Best Buddies Team of UCSI organized a welcoming party especially for a group of "Buddies", Parents and NGOs.

The main focus of the party was to introduce the "Best Buddies program" to the guest as well as to recruit new "Buddies" into the program ("Buddies" is the term used to address individuals with learning difficulties). Furthermore, the party serves as a moment of joy for the "Buddies" as they get to meet new friends and also show off their energetic dancing skills in the process.

A series of activities were planned, which included interactive ice-breaking games, a sparkling performance by "Buddies" as well as short play by the Best Buddies team members. It was indeed a memorable and lively evening for the guests as they mingled around and enjoy themselves. In a nutshell, the organizing teams have put forward a simple yet memorable evening for their guests and i believe that their effort were sincere and genuine. Bravo!

A wonderful night on 29/09/2008

After the Best Buddies Welcoming Party, we had our post mortem meeting. Normally, our meeting will be conducted in a relaxed and comfortable setting, but this time slightly changed. The meeting was serious, and the CBD was extremely fear and emotionless.

Why we did that? It was due to our secret plan for our beloved advisor.

What was the plan? We planned to throw her a small party for her birthday. So, we decided to make a fool on her.

After finished our group dinner in an ambient cafe, i dragged her to another table to discuss something serious with her. She was frighten. I pretended that I am going to resign from CBD, and i only wanted to be a normal member. She took it seriously and the plan succeeded.

Later on, we went back to our seat, and she was down and sad. Out of sudden, a birthday cake appeared in front of her and we sang a birthday song for her. She can't really enjoy due to our joke was too significant for her.

Hahaha...Anyway "Happy Birthday to You, Ker Shin"

However, it was really a nice dinner with all the Best Buddies members, our beloved advisor, and 3 beautiful special guests. :)

Looking forward to have more gathering in the future.
