f block chicken night!

Since the time I first stepped into KE VII Hall, I have heard countless comments from many seniors about the famous “Sheares’ Chicken” – how it is a “must-try” for its uniqueness, tastiness and sinfulness. It was said that if you lived on campus and yet have not tried the “Sheares’ Chicken” even once, you would have lived your hall life in vain and would spend the rest of eternity in regret! Well then, what is so special about this chicken to make generations of KE VII residents fall in love with it? Well, I guess the simple answer to this question would be – it tastes really good!

You fret about the walk down – and later up – the steep business slope towards Sheares Hall. Yes, the distance might be a bit of a hassle and most irritatingly, there would not be the shuttle bus service after 11pm. Now, if someone is willing to order it for you, deliver it to KE VII Hall and serve it to you, I am sure it is an offer that you cannot resist! You ask: “Wow, who on earth would be so kind?” Answer? The F Block Committee! :D

F Block Chicken Night on 15th October was certainly a much-awaited event that kept our mouths watering for weeks, ever since posters of the event were pasted on the notice boards. Members of the Block Committee pre-ordered the chickens from Sheares Hall, brought them back, and at 10pm, the feast began in our own KE VII Dining Hall! The chickens were truly yummy – the meat so tender and juicy, and of course, the cheese sauce spammed over them, how sinfully tasty! However, what made the chickens truly special were those sweet, juicy apples that were stuffed inside the chickens! Oh my, how heavenly! Just look at all those carnivores devouring the meat using their hands, guys and girls alike, totally forgetting about proper dining etiquette and hygiene!

The climax of the night certainly came when several people were invited (or rather, sabo-ed) on stage to dance to the tunes of Nobody, Low and Poker Face. The prize for the winner – an extra pack of fries! At first the participants were rather stunned by the task, but soon they stepped up to the challenge and went gaga battling one another, sending the audience into a prolonged spasm of laughter. To fit the theme of the night, moves of the Chicken Dance were spotted when Poker Face was being played! Wonder-boys indeed!

happy F blockers!

Thanks so much to the F Block Committee for organising this highly sinful, but immensely satisfying and enjoyable Chicken Night!

The F Block Comm organised a supper this Wednesday night. It was an opportunity for the F-Blockers to meet and relax at this time of the year when the pressure of exams and projects is piling on.

It was held at the F3 open area, which had been set up with some tables and music to create a relaxing atmosphere. Like all block suppers, the food was a major attraction, drawing the usual crashers from the other blocks who just could not resist the temptation to join in and get their share of the yummy food. The chocolate fondue, sandwiches, fruits, nuggets and all the other dishes were really delicious and were gone in no time as everybody helped themselves to generous portions.

Featuring couples from popular movies and series :)

The highlight of the night was the finale of the Secret Pen Pal Project. This was a game that the Block Comm people had organised where the F- Blockers took up pen names [Donald& Daisy, Mr& Mrs Smith, Tarzan& Jane, etc.] to write to each other without knowing the identity of their correspondent. Thus, this night, they finally got to learn who the person with whom they had been exchanging messages really was. It all made for some interesting situations and a lot of laughter, as they playfully met their other half and traded presents.

Overall, this block supper was an excellent occasion for people to break from the usual, stressful routine, meet others and have a nice little chat. All those who came went back happy, as the food and chatting were a welcome break in these stressful times. It was indeed a very good idea by the F Block Comm, which now has the F Blockers impatiently waiting for the next block supper!
