Cami, Organiser:<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153I am going to meet new friends\u00e2\u20ac\u009d That was what I told my mother on the day of the outing. Well, this led to an endless tirade of nagging, including the danger of meeting new people from online. Of course, I proved her wrong when I returned home, looking and feeling great<\/p>\n
Feeling\u00c2\u00a0both excited and anxious in meeting new people and establish new friendships. At the caf\u00c3\u00a9, we still didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t know much about each other. Yet, the games \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcloosened\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 our muscles up such that we began chatting and all. It is also thanks to the \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcolder\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 members who helped to start conversations.<\/p>\n
Unglamorous videos were taken during charades (of multiple people which I shan\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t mention). Thanks to these daring people and the enthusiastic videographers (Kah Yin and Joanne), we shall have concrete evidence of this memorable outing!<\/p>\n
All good things come to an end. All in all, the outing ended in a pleasant mood, with newly built friendships.<\/p>\n
This first time organizing an outing provided an experience that is unforgettable. Thank you everyone for participating and thank you, Joanne, dearest partner!<\/p>\n

Joanne, Co-organiser:<\/p>\n
It was my first time co-organising an IPC. I was very new to this forum and I knew nobody. I am glad that I had decided to co-organise this IPC with Cami as it was really a great experience for me.<\/p>\n
Before starting with the games, we did the traditional RBKD 1+3 introduction which Kah Yin explained to us. After which, we got down to serious business – the board gaming.<\/p>\n
We played a total of 4 games in which 3 we played were acting games (helping to groom more talent for Singapore\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s media industry haha) and there were many funny occasions, especially for one of the acting game.<\/p>\n
I must admit that it was really awkward in the beginning as everyone was new to each other and haven\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t \u00e2\u20ac\u0153warmed up\u00e2\u20ac\u009d. But I feel that it got better as we started to play more games and I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m glad to have made much more new friends that day. I really hoped that everyone enjoyed themselves that day and I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m definitely looking forward to much more IPCs in the future.<\/p>\n

The day of the MINDS caf\u00c3\u00a9 IPC is also the day when I realized I was no longer the youngest in RBKD. On the way to the caf\u00c3\u00a9, I told Regin, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153We are like on some secondary school class outing, everyone are walking in 2 by 2!\u00e2\u20ac\u009d At the caf\u00c3\u00a9, we started off with the usual 3 + 1. A bit awkward but still it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s fun getting to know everyone. Playing Taboo was really funny seeing how everyone describing what they want us to say without saying the taboo word.<\/p>\n
We started to play another game which is like charades but just a harder version of it. We only had about 15 seconds to do actions that let our team guess what we are acting. I guess after this game, we really know about the meaning of image thrown away!<\/p>\n
Overall it was really very fun and I had enjoyed myself really well knowing a few more people like Cami, Joanne and a few others. It was a short meetup for old members and a bonding session for everyone! Hope everyone had fun!<\/p>\n

It was my first time going for IPC with RBKD and it was a little bit ‘paiseh’ as I did not know much people then. But things started to get better when we started to introduce ourselves through 3+1.The people there were friendly, sociable and was easy to get along with. We played games such as Taboo, murderer…The atmosphere was cool as everyone was enjoying the games as well as happy laughing away. It was fun to get to know more new friends through this IPC and I believe that I will get to know more people through other upcoming IPCs.I sincerely thank the organizers for organizing this IPC and I look 4ward to other IPCs ahead.<\/p>\n
