What Unemployed People Do #2
(btw, there's a new post below this one, due to my anal desire to keep my blog chronological accurate)
Well, first they visit sick kids in hospital...
Poor Zach got hospitalised for a viral infection,
after he caught something called the "kissing disease".
Yes, he's a very sociable young guy. And he's my pastor's son. :)
Then they spend all their time in church, working on Vacation Bible School props and decorations.
What's VBS? Well...
And what have I been doing?
Painting stuff! With the help of the lovely Ms Claire and her bevy of friends - well, actually her brother's friends, but they're twins, so I guess they really do share everything. Claire, Kevin, Ambrose and Jiansheng (? Couldn't catch his name, kept asking it till I was too embarrassed to ask any more.) Like this:
The VBS's Theme:
Rickshaw Rally Racing to the Son 1
Doraemon saying a big HI
Godzilla and Ultraman fighting it out beside Mt Fuji
Claire putting the finishing touches on one of the Pokemon characters
(I don't know any of them besides the yellow Pikachu, I apparently coloured
the blue fellow wrongly - it's supposed to be a light pink, Claire tells me. Oh well.)
My attempt at making an actual rickshaw - it looks a lot more like
a rickshaw now, this picture was taken yesterday, and a lot has changed.
Kevin and Jiansheng (?) papering the Japanese screen with rice paper
My minions kakis doing work - cutting up the styrofoam wheels
for the rickshaw (recycled from the church food and funfair booths -
Charmaine's "kueh" booth, actually. You can see the multicoloured
spray paint that she used to write the ad.) You can see Jo in the
left hand corner giving a hand too - thanks A. Jo! I'm tired and sticky and gross after the four days of working in the non-aircon room, where I could not switch on the fans because it would mean paper blowing all over the place (not to mention those irritating small balls of styrofoam that come when you cut styrofoam with a penknife), but hey, it's all gonna be worth it. Actually, seeing how my work turned out is pretty satisfying already. I hope the kids like them. A big thank you Claire, Kevin, Ambrose and Jiansheng(?)!
