Where have you been?

Been missing out on Raleigh KL events? Where have you been? Fret not, here's an update of the past projects:
First off, right after August Introduction Weekend (IW), teams were busy getting everyone back and finally making a decision on which project to work on for their Post-IW project.
Before I introduce you to all the brand new exciting projects, I will first guide you through a journey of one team, one year ago, one children's home, and one hope...

Then, the artwork came...

Finally the transformation of the 126 wall to....

Another amazing piece of artwork...

The mural.

Here's the link where you can find the complete "photo-journey" from fund raising till the end of the project. Want to know how Team Charlie IW September 2006 did all that, here - you- go.

Back to the more recent PIW projects, team Alpha have recently(20th October 2007) visited a shelter home for the homeless- Mercy Welfare Society in Taman Wahyu, Jinjang. In case you are wondering, they did not visit empty-handed they have raised a total amount of RM200+ to bring groceries along. Here are some of the snapshots for the day...

An all-time favourite card game was played and thoroughly enjoyed...

SNAP!!

And Checkers too...

Overall, the time there was well spent playing some classic card and board games. It is a different experience altogether visiting a home for the homeless, the experience has left us all pondering on Life itself-being lucky as we are now and having what we have. For further information and possible visit to the shelter home, be sure to log on to Mercy Welfare Society for contact details and featured articles.
The same Team Alpha has also paid a visit to the SPCA. Here's the story on how they peeled chicken (well, that's the food for the animal!).

Up next will be Team Charlie and their Lantern Festival Celebration at Angels Children's Home...

When they first reached...

After some warming up with the kids...

...Looks as though the kids have just discovered a new sport--The human rock climbing wall! Happy faces always give happy thoughts, ah... what magic kids can do.
Finally, the painters, and painter-watcher have completed the day's task...

Well done, Team Charlie, job well done for another amazing Post-Introduction Weekend project.
Also, now venturing and soul-searching Raleigh venturer Zhi Yong (who is still somewhere in the Sabah jungle...) has posted some pictures taken at Angels during the mixed-festival lantern painting activity. Check out for more info here. Feel free to write to them (Zhi Yong, Vincent, EeLaine, and Yen Jun) at:

It could be a pleasant surprise as when they are out in the jungle too long, the creative juices just will not stop flowing. Or, to remind yourselves on what they look like, you can also go to the official Sabah Autumn Expedition blogsite.
