Makan Makan + Introduction

Hello!

We are 5 months away from our Oshima trip! This week, we decided to meet up for dinner on one of the days at The Star Vista, Buona Vista. Prior to the dinner, while waiting for every one of us to end our classes in school, some of us decided to hit the books since the mid semester tests are just round the corner. Gradually, after everyone has arrived, we headed off to our makan destination for that night! A few of us couldn't make it for the dinner that night due to personal reasons, but we all understood their circumstances.

Initially, we had wanted to spend dinner at Manhattan Fish Market because Benjamin had the coupons which had attracting offers.


However, Rifhan suggested that we could "dabao" (take-away) pizza from Pezzo Pizza and we could go to the open roof top place situated at level 3 of Star Vista. We all agreed that that would be much more chill and informal for a mini gathering like this. With our hands filled with pizzas, gong cha bubble teas, Thai style drinks, as well as Benjamin's grapefruit-on-stick, we sat in a circle on the roof top area and began feasting. The area had a super calming vibe and it was very windy at night, coupled with the music that was playing from the vista's speakers, it was a very pleasant atmosphere indeed. The sky turned dark before we even noticed, but this was more chill than anything else because we started talking about literally anything under the sun (no pun intended).

Our Japanese friends have also been conducting presentations for the March MEL camp 2017.

The new team from Oshima college will be selected in July and they will be the one hosting and guiding us when we head over in October : ) 





That will be it for today!
