The 2nd YES Alumni Picnic that was held on Saturday, 6th of March at Central Park, Bandar Utama was a great success. With about nine of us excited YES Alumni taking over the Central Park, loud chatters and laughter filled the air. This time around, our YES Alumni were fed with roasted chicken, chips, nachos and salsa, soft drinks and of course more junk food.
As the excitement was just about to kick in, we shifted our picnic spot from the gazebo to a picnic mat under the shady tree where our usual rounds of charades were played. With America as the theme this time, our rounds of charades got more challenging with words such as the “Ronald Reagan International Airport”, “Abercrombie and Fitch” and “Donald Trump ” popping up. It was especially hilarious when one of the YES Alumni tried to act out the word “bald eagle” while pointing over a bald man jogging pass us.
We were all too busy snapping away pictures when drops of rain started to fall. Fret not; we the YES Alumni as always are a bunch of witty kids! Since One Utama was literally just next door, we packed all our food stuff into our “picnic basket” and decided to move on to our next location which again happened to be Starbucks! There, we were able to squeeze in some time for a short meeting with our YES Alumni President.
As the day was almost coming to an end, some of us had to leave while others took the opportunity to take up the Giant Yankee Burger Challenge in New York New York Deli, One Utama. Jim Chua, a returnee from the YES 09 program, took up the challenge to finish up a giant burger in an hour for free or else he would have to foot the bill. Was he able to finish the challenge?
Finish or not, we, the YES Alumni, definitely had a blast on our day out together. For those who missed out on this 2nd picnic, do not worry as our 3rd YES Alumni Picnic will be coming up soon on the 3rd of April. So please keep your schedule free and come down to join the fun!
