Treasure Hunters

It was fun to be able to attend T.H.E. Carnival again this year as last year, DUMC didn’t organize one. Our CG had fun tending the game stall that our Zone was responsible for setting up. I still don’t understand how people can stand in line to play the same game over and over again. Even I who was managing the booth got quite tired of seeing their faces over and over again. It wasn’t 3 or 4 time but more like 7-10 times non-stop! Argh!

The weather was good, meaning that there wasn’t a cloud in the sky…which was good and bad because it was really hot! I was sweating buckets and it wasn’t a pretty sight. My poor brother got sunburned and is now 3 shades darker. I didn’t really want to queue up for the games as the lines were pretty long so to alleviate possible boredom, I entered the Treasure Hunt contest which my mum signed up for. Hannah joined our team but had to leave for home in the middle of the game.

Nonetheless, we managed to finish answering the questions after nearly cracking our heads because we had to think so much! Our hard work paid off because, we only got 3 of the answers wrong which clinched us the 2nd prize. The gifts were really good, shopping vouchers and a hamper, all of which we split 3 ways.

Now my mum is thinking of entering a major treasure hunt contest when she comes across one…Yay?
