The last sunday of every month, Mensa Singapore will have a session which they call chill and chat where members can go and play games and drinks for free. Being a member for about 4 months, today is the first time going there. So off we went to Settlers' Cafe in Clarke Quay.
Have asked most of the platoon people who are still in Singapore, but mostly are too busy with school work or some other reasons. In the end only 5 people went - me(already CMI in school work), Kai(too pro, so can go out play), Kyuu(already holidaying), Miz and HH(who's already out for the day, might as well stay out longer).
Reached there at around 250pm and we started off with the game called Ticket to Ride. The host got each of us a cup of peach tea and sort of showed us how the game is played and it was actually quite an easy game. Either draw cards, or place trains. The beyond godlike won this game easily, connecting all over the map(so pro).
The 2nd game(GIZA) was about building pyramid. Each player has a board and you can place the tiles on anyone's board during your turn, or exchange your tiles. After playing 3 games of this, the i only managed to win 1, the pro one won 1, and 1 game was tied between 3 players.
Miz joined the 3rd game we played was a card game - "HAVOC". The name was introduced to us by another one of the hosts, and lol, for the first 2 days in the game, i didnt know what was happening(too noob). In the end, it turned out to be something like Big 2 with a twist, and was played with numbers from 0-15, and 6 colours of each number. We were supposed to shout "HAVOC!!" before going into battle, but no one did.
Leaving the place at 6, we had a headache of where to have dinner. Settled for a bak kut teh dinner along the junction of mohamed sultan road and river valley road. DYRSM was supposed to meet us for dinner, but was late as usual, and what worse was he went to Holland V to find us. lol.. Miscomm. And he took taxi from Holland V to find us. Expensive dinner at a hawker center.
Right now at this very moment, I'm still having a headache over the things i have to submit tomorrow. Wanted to finish them up before going for the chilling session, but i'm totally lost and dont know where to start from, sigh. Anyway, Pro guy suggests going for the session again next month. He is the person to contact if you want to go, not me, cause he is the organiser.
