I realised that recently my entries consist of many pictures but brief descriptions. So I will try to put my essay writing skill back to work for my following entries.
In the beginning of this year, my mum and I attended mandarin class at a charitable organisation. I stopped mid-year but my mum persevere and she came out first in a writing contest.
This place not only offers mandarin classes, they also have classes for Malay language, English language, computer classes, flower arrangement etc. It operates like a school, equipped with school bell and black board, and it's sort of a nostalgia to be back in 'school'.
At the end of the school year, they have a 'graduation' dinner for the students and also a prize giving session to honour the outstanding students and to thank the dedicated teachers (which are volunteers because they are only paid a meagre allowance).
The dinner was held at the school hall and we were served 8-course vegetarian dishes. If the vegetarian food out there taste as good as those I had during the dinner, I don't mind being a vegan for life. Just by typing this makes me crave for the spicy & sour sauce 'fish' (the 'fish' was made from bean curd).
There were some performances by the students and volunteers. It was not very entertaining but they should be given credit for their effort. Then it was prize presentation time and lucky draw. The night ended abruptly because most of the people left once the number for the grand lucky draw prize was announced. That's a flaw in our local culture. People are not sporting to see other people winning.
The night kick start with a choir performance.
