Moon Cake Festival Celebration

I had my first Moon cake Festival celebration with XXT friends on 29th of Sept, Monday. Since I had class on that night, I went late for the celebration but I had exempted from paid RM20, thanks for Jeannie to ask Yukina to claim the money from Prof Teng if she want. Hehehe!

We had theme for the celebration which called 月光野餐. This was not a simply eat and chat gathering, games and performances were prepared. I had my first try on 相声with Jeannie. I felt myself like to try on various type of performance recently, hehehe, but I know myself not really born for performance stage. I prepared a drama script and hand language for 回乡too! Both were also my virgin works, but they were declared loosed the chance to present not long after I completed. Haiz! OK! Never mind, I accepted but still felt little disappointment for the cancelation of 回乡. The 相声was actually another performance for 回乡,Jeannie and I made a pre-presentation on it when月光野餐. I didn’t feel nervous any more when performing on the spot, but I know I didn’t do well for it as my Chinese speaking not professional and a bit pretentious. Thanks for all of your comments; I will do better if I still have another chance. Hehehe. Besides this, thanks for our Magician Seng Chiew, altered version of 嫦娥奔月performed by 教育组 and jokes given by 升学组.
After games and performances, we light on our lanterns and had a walk in the dark of USM. I taught we will go further up to the hill for night view on Penang Bridge, but we ended up made a round around the roundabout. It was funny because a row of 17 peoples made a turn on the roundabout while other transports were moving. Actually, I did go for the night view in front of HEP before attend 8pm class. Let’s see the beautiful photos……^.^
the rosy clouds just before sunset...
the opposite side of view...... so romantic ya....
That's the shorter Twins Tour in Penang. XD


I had another Moon Cake Festival celebration on 2nd of Oct, Friday night. It was an event with course mates. Khai Qi brought us to QB for vegetarian Rou Gu Cha. I think a lot of you never tried before, it was really delicious especially the wine soup. I like it ^o^. After back from QB, Kar Min and I went to Tesco Extra search for foods and drinks for the celebration. Quite a lot of things we bought, hehehe, because we afraid the junk foods, sandwich and moon cakes might not sufficient to fill everyone stomach! Luckily, she suggested cooking noodles, even though it was just 5 packs of Mee Sedap ;P
Finally, these were the foods we prepared for that night. It seem like not a lot, but 11 of us still not manage to finish all.
We were planning to celebrate Clarian birthday too, which was on 3rd of Oct. We reached Saujana gym park at about 8.30pm but don't know why Tang required Clarian to come an hour later... pity Clarian....
While waiting Clarian, a group of Malays who were also having 'picnic' at another side of the park, sang birthday song!! Wow! Another birthday celebration there... Jane generously gave out her favourite green lantern to the birthday girls even we don't know each other. Hahaha...then...
we took a chance to have a group photo with them too. How sweat it was.... since we really don't know any of them. GOOD!! That's called ONE MALAYSIA....XD kekeke
After that was Clarian's turn. Since it was a windy night, we worked hard to light on the candles. Hehehe! Never saw moon cakes as birthday cake and light on with candles, right? Two big moon cake plus two smaller, meant he was 22 years old!!
He cut one....
...then I needed to help him cut the rest. because he was so hungary to wait his dinner until 9.30pm. Tang's false....XD
Just eating and chating were quite boring, so Wen Wei suggested to play a game called 'Killer' by her but called 'Mafia' by me. The time when I played this game, Mafia Wars was not yet popular on Facebook. When they heard I called this game as Mafia, they kept laughing and said wanted to move laptop down to play. T.T yerrr.... It's really called Mafia when first introduced to me......sob...
After played the a few round of the games, all suddenly changed mind to play lanterns. It's actually because we are photographic-phillic (word created by Kar Min), thaught to take more photos with the beautiful lanterns. Hohoho! The biggest one was mine!! Like a Queen being protected. Hahaha!
Artistic...
More artistic!! I like this photo. If the Moon looked bigger might be better. Lanterns with the Moon can be the perfect match in the dark. Moreover, you can see Li ting smiling to the Moon, that's the contented feeling for Moon Cake Festival. Wow! hahaha! Li Ting, don't 'hao lian' ya! I am not really praising you....

Back to the game after SS... XD
This was the Moon at aroud 3am. It was so bright and round before the rain fell.
We moved to sheltered location when rainning. No body felt to back home or hostel, even though it was almost 4am. Good! Then, Mafia game continued......
After 5am something, most of us almost collapsed. I fell into short slept while waiting the Killer been caught. XD
Finally... Tang was the Killer!!! How unexpected!!! He killed me (the Doctor) and Li Ting (the Police) but still pretent innocent!! The Killer won the last game!!! OMG! Look at Li Ting, she was so angry to throw a shoe on him. Me?! Almost energiless to react....XD

New record:
Celebration duration : ~10 hours
Total time for a game : ~8 hours!!
Total time for being awake : >24 hours

Anyway! It was fun. I can feel I realize something meaningful besides playing with this game, Mafia~~

    Tang wanted Clarian to come one hour later because he afraid us had not enough time to prepare surprise for Clarian! So sorry to blame him as bad guy.>.<

    (P/S: He showed his innocent icons made me felt guilty......So, I better made correction for him.)
