Pre- Japanese Culture Festival 2016
Hello everyone!
Firstly, a big apology to everyone for the long hiatus and delay in uploading more content onto the JAC’s blog, due to the fact that it has been a very busy period due to the start of the school semester, settling module registrations, timetables, and also preparing for the festive period. Some of us have also been busy preparing for the upcoming Uchiage, and Japanese Cultural Festival.
Speaking of Japanese Cultural Festival (JCF), JAC’s annual JCF is just right around the corner! JCF is one of JAC’s biggest annual event and although it will only be held for one day this year, I assure you that we will still be able to have fun and enjoy the event together! There are games to play and photos to be taken!
Various teams have been formed since last year and have been working very hard preparing to make this year’s JCF a success and I would like to take this chance to dedicate and introduce what the various teams have been doing in preparation for JCF! The various teams are: Shoot Shoot, Wanage, Fishing Yoyo, Information, Fortune Telling, Pachinko, Decoration and last but not the least, the Photobooth. Attached are also some of the shots taken during preparation!
Who say guys can’t paint?
Shoot Shoot, led by Aaron have made an interesting themed rubber-band gun shooter game where the characters are bound to make you think twice before shooting them! Even the guns are handmade by the team themselves!
Fishing Yoyo, led by Hosung, have an interesting rendition of the Yoyo Fishing game which is bound to amaze you! Don’t let the name fool you, this is definitely not an easy game!
Pachinko, led by Ryan, has handmade and done up a manual Pachinko slot machine that will be putting your luck and skills to the test! May the RNG be with you.
Hard at work
Decoration, led by Ying Sin have spent countless hours creating models designs bound to capture your attention right over at JCF! Do look out for our special guardians this JCF!
The skeletons of the guardians!
Fortune Telling, led by Wanlin, have made it possible for you to find out more about your current fortunes, where you can also purchase various Emas (絵馬) where you will be able to write your wishes on!
Information, led by Jonathan Pong, have done intensive research on the various booth themes and design so that everyone can have a better understanding of the Japanese culture related to them!
Smells so nice that it’s almost edible
Wanage, led by JAC’s strongest and handsome-est guy Deming, have made a very cute rendition of the traditional festival game, where the cuteness will be bound to capture your hearts just like Deming!
As attractive as Deming himself
Photobooth, led by Zi Xin (and I), have constructed a photo area where you will be able to take photos with your friends There are also Yukata rentals and props available to spice up your photo! ! It’s still not too late to get that Valentine’s couple photo!
