Moomba Waterfest

im sorry for the oh-so-latee update. but anyway, here it is!

soo, on the 10th of March (Saturday), the club had an unofficial trip to Moomba waterfest. for those who missed it and is wondering what's Moomba all about. well, i dun really know the reason for having it. but i can tell u what they had. it was along the yarra river sorta behind the federation square. they had fun fair games, rides and performances. its pretty much like a fun fair except that on the Yarra river, they had water activities like water-skiing, wakeboarding, boat rowing, etc. at night, they had a starlight cinema whereby we all watch a movie under the stars. they were showing 'Cars' on saturday night. in my opinion, the screen was a little too smalll. but it was fun!

in the middle of the movie, they had a fire show. it lasted for about 15 mins. and it was really really nice. here are some pictures for those who missed it. the library computer isnt being very nice to me, soo all i can upload is 3 pictures but it should be good enough.

MaSS Welcome Night 2007

on Sunday 4th March 2007, we had our Welcome Night for all the members of the club. i think there about 20 of us that night. for those who signed up but didn't turn up, shamee on you!

at 6pm, all members were either spos to meet at Flinders Street station or the Caulfield station. From there, we made our way to Richmond station and from there, changed trains and continued on to Camberwell. i cant remember exactly what time everything happened. but doesnt matter... insignificant details.

soo anyway, we arrived.... and then the food arrived!

we started off with Calamari Rings, Caecar Salad and a Vegetarian Lasagne (pic on left). and then the pizzas came. one of it was a Salmon pizza(right), as weird as it sounds, it tasted pretty damn good. then we had pastas. the pasta is actually for 2 people soo you would be shocked to see the portion of the food. we had 2 of those large sized pasta. 1 was with vegetarian and seafood pastas (below) . and the other was with meat and potato balls (?).

as we were having dinner. all committee members were to introduce themselves to every new member of the club. and once that was done, we had a lil photo taking session thanks to Zahirah for remembering to bring a camera.hehe.

i'll just put up all the pictures soo u guys can just get them. i wonder whether anyone actually remembered the website i gave u guys. oh well.....

we all headed home at about 10.30 i think. all happy and fulll....

ohhh, we'll have booths open on tuesday to thursday. im assuming it's for u to collect ur MaSS ID and also for u guys to enquire about the Moomba Waterfest this weekend. we'll most probably be going on a Saturday soo that u'll have Sunday to relax.

you must be wondering what they hav at this Moomba Waterfest that we keep talking about. its actually a water festival. its not those festivals where u play with water. but rather watch water activities go on along the Yarra River like canoeing, water skiing and all that stuff. the will also be rides but mind you, u hav to pay per ride here. besides that, there's workshops and cultural performances. and then at night, there will be a Starlight Cinema and fireworks. on saturday night, they're showing Cars. even if you've seen the movie, there's nothing wrong with sitting under the stars and watching it again, right? the entrance to the Moomba Waterfest is FREE! u'll only hav to pay for ur train ticket. sooo, im hoping to see as many as u ppl there this weekened. u guys should really get out before all ur assignments and tests start. seriously!!

and lastly, sorry if this entry is a lil messy... cyahh!!!!
