What: weareone: our fourth chapter celebration
When: 13th November 2012
Where: Function Room

Pei Jun, Ordinary Member:
RBKD’s 4th birthday celebration was my first time meeting Rangels.
The epic moment when we arrived: Saw the spread of food through the glass panels!
A lot of us gushed in with delight when we caught a glimpse of what’s inside the room – it’s like a group of excited dwarfs that had discovered a pile of gold lying in front of them. Ha!
The food that was prepared by fellow Rangels was tasty! I appreciate the effort the committee have put in to make this whole thing happen… a grade A with a million of stars for you :)
While all of us were enjoying the spread, some had fun breaking their plastic forks too. We all know when someone is trying to eat her nugget and her fork failed on her when we hear the “piak” sound.. Haha.
Anyway, the prettiest thing on the table:
Everyone was saying: “It’s too pretty. I can’t bear to eat it!â€
And then the next moment, cameras and phones were everywhere. We also sang birthday song and popped sparkling juices.
Thanks idol for the aesthetically pleasing and delicious cupcakes and cake.
Before the night ended, a birthday present was presented to the committee! It was a meaningful handcraft gift (:
All in all, I think the birthday celebration was more than just a celebration. It was a day for the members to show appreciation for having one another, for making RBKD grow and travel thus far.

I think that we should be appreciative of all the things that the organizers have done to make this celebration possible and a successful one. From searching for a suitable venue, to buying ingredients and to preparing all the foods, their efforts were commendable.
Photo-taking session. This seems like a very simple task but on that evening, this simple task became a challenge, with 30+ people squeezing in between chairs and glass wall of the function room! However, this is where the fun came in too.
We were all trying our best to join in the cake-cutting!
After having fun taking photos, we settled down for dinner. I think it was great to see everyone gather around the table to have their meal and interact, it feels just like a family gathering.
And of course, the birthday cake and cupcake bought by Rui En.
The colorful RBKD on the cupcake looks really nice but I feel kind of weird that we have to eat that. I mean how would we bear to eat the “RBKD†into our stomach? That was just a thought; ultimately we still ate it.
I think that most hilarious part of the night was when Jean did a “presentation†of the gift that they have done for RBKD. Really love the concept of the gift!
I am looking forward to more gatherings and of course weareone: our fifth chapter.

HAPPY 4TH ANNIVERSARY, RBKD!!!
What: weareone: our fourth chapter preparation
When: 13th November 2012
Where: All around Singapore
Participant(s): Jean, May Yen, Ming, Phyllis, Xinyi, Yan Ling

Jean, Priority Member:
I was involved in the “purchasing-of-food-preparation part” for RBKD’s weareone: our fourth chapter:)
Together with Ming and Xinyi, we made our way to an ulu part of Woodlands on a Saturday morning. To me, it felt like excursion day but with a purpose to it and that purpose is to buy food :) Hahaha! But not only for me but also for fellow Rangels :) Hahahaha!
Buying food to feed about 30 people was seriously no joke because the total amount of frozen food was estimated to have weighed 12KG!:O The buying part is fun because I guess I will never buy that much of food at one shot in my life.. Hahaha!
First stop was to get frozen food like seaweed chicken, chicken wing, popcorn chicken and chicken nuggets. :)
After that, we went to check out the sashimi where we had to enter a freezer at a temperature of -18 degree celsius. It was like entering Snow City just that it was smaller, somewhere in the north side instead of the west and missing the snow factor. Hahaha!
Next stop was Lot 1 to get the rest of the stuff which includes the necessity for a party such as trays, cutleries and etc and not to forget more FOOD:D
And the day ended with the last purchase which was a packet of bee hoon because we kept on forgetting to get it.

Yan Ling, Committee:
Somehow on this day, I just felt so excited to be able to meet each other again :)
When it was time for May Yen to pick me up from my place to get all the food, I took out all the food from my freezer and seriously, preparation for about 30 people was no kid. I was so :O at the amount of food that we have bought! My freezer was almost empty by the time I took out the 3 big bags of food!
BEFORE taking out all the food.
AFTER taking out all the food.
Then, we started to experiment how to get our beehoon base for our trays and all we got was sort of chao-tao beehoon. Never did we expect such “nuclear reaction†to happen when the oil was hot enough! The beehoon was like *KABOOMZ* into white beehoon within a few seconds and it was so amazing and cool!! #swakoo.
*KABOOMZ*
TADA~
The Magical Process~
After laying the beehoon bed for our trays, we started frying all the food and I had the é‡ä»» to ensure that all the food are cooked! ^^ That means, I ä¸åŽŒå…¶çƒ¦-ly tried all the freshly fried food! :D “Finger licking good†indeed! Thank you May Yen & your helper for all the help!
“Finger licking good†seaweed chicken
All looking good and ready to be packed!
Has it been only 4 years?
Somehow seems like it’s been much much longer.
It’s strange sometimes, me and RBKD. When people know about your schedule before you do. When people somehow find out where you’re filming. When people you don’t know at all know every single detail about you that you’ve forgot you mentioned in the press.
It’s almost like having a best friend who’s invisible.
It really is a strange thing between fan clubs and artistes.
It used to be that there was this nagging fear at the back of my heart, “what if no one turns up?” which has become, “I really hope they brought their homework and got some sleep while q-ing overnight” – thank you for making the girl who felt no one would ever turn up for her appearances feel otherwise.
In short, thank you for always being there.
For being the invisible best friend.
Happy Birthday. Cya Sunday.
En.
What. A. Year. *takes a deep deep deep breath in*
It’s amazing.
From pineapple paste to pineapple tarts.
I think it pretty much sums up us for the year.
Resilient, Boundless, Knitted and Dedicated.
It’s about writing our story together.
This year, I dedicate my post to the many faceless family whom I have not met or interacted with in person.
You are so amazing.
Thank you for sharing our pride.
Thank you for quietly, but so reliably, watching her back with us.
Thank you simply, for being here with us.
Your well wishes gave me strength, and warmed my heart.
I never knew, until these messages were sent through.
I thought RBKD is just about stubborn kids, doing silly things, out of vanity.
“Thanks for the love.”
Next year, would be our half-a-decade in RBKD. Never saw this coming, but can’t wait for it to come.
15th November 2013 falls on a Friday, let’s make the day available for each other.
My many true-hearted compatriots.
“I hope we can be each other’s lifebuoys to keep our heads above the water.”
Thank you.
Happy Birthday, I’m looking forward to your next!
Happy 4th Anniversary RBKD!!!
Thank you for making this year a memorable one.
The numerous new and exciting IPCs that strengthened our bonds; our annual charity drives that allowed us to give back to the society and the most anticipated annual RBKD Orientation where we see many new faces. Though everyone was sweating under the hot sun but the smiles on their faces just tell us how much they enjoyed the day.
Let’s all continue to be the Resilient Rangels that we are proud to be. Maximize our Boundless creativity on more IPCs/events. Stay Knitted and thank you to all Dedicated members.
Happy Birthday and may we have more great years to come
Cheers,
Jia Min
Hello RBKD,
Another year has passed and well look how far we have come!
Throughout this 4 years we have grown so much together.
The bonds fostered over the years is definitely what I will always remember.
Every anniversary celebration is one of a kind, so different from the previous ones. This year is no exception and I am very glad to be part of weareone: our fourth chapter.
Thank you each and everyone of you who have played a part to make RBKD so special in it’s own way.
With love,
Phyllis
Dearest RBKD
Happy 4th Anniversary!
Thank you for yet another awesome year together, one filled with fun, joy and laughter all over Singapore at Sentosa (Orientation 2012), Square 2 (Unriddle 2 Roadshow), Eastpoint Mall (Joys of Life Roadshow) and many many more! Thank you for the genuine care and concern showered to people around us inside RBKD, forging and strengthening all the wonderful and crazy friendships over the past year.
Thank you to our very Dedicated leaders, leading the very Resilient Rangels, Knitting us into a bonded family and taking us to fulfil many Boundless dreams. Thank you for being an awesome part of my life.
Have a great new year ahead towards our 5th and may we continue to reach out for the skies where sky’s the limit!
Happy Birthday!
Lotsa love
Tan Yan Ling
4 years we have come thus far, it is 1460 days, 35040 hours, 2102400 minutes…
In these days how much I’ve learnt from Rangels: To give without expecting return, to stand united as one, to love truthfully and faithfully.
Grateful for having RBKD in my life, for every year’s birthday I only wish to say: To have many more birthdays to come!!

Happy 4th Anniversary RBKD!!
1&1/2 years in RBKD had gone by so fast and I really enjoyed the times spent with this family.
What I’ve experienced here isn’t just supporting our favourite actress, but also supporting each other (in our studies/life etc), giving back to society and helping the needy.
I hope that RBKD will become better and larger and once again, Happy 4th Anniversary RBKD!!!

Happy 4th Birthday RBKD!
Thank you for all the fun, laughter and life experiences that you have brought. I have learnt that as long as we put our minds, hearts and hands together as one, no matter how difficult a task is, we will be overcome.
You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself ” I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along. You must do the thing that you think you cannot do.” – Eleanor Roosevelt – You learn by living

I’m not sure four club years is equivalent to how many human years, but when we had our first AGM, it suddenly seemed like we had reached legal age overnight. Moving into the next phase, may we mark RBKD’s fourth anniversary with a new level of wisdom, maturity and responsibility.
Looking forward to another amazing year of oneness, not forgetting goofiness, with Rangels.
