AEC ( GAME TIME Earthopoly)

Earthopoly

I have always love to play monopoly since young. I spent my childhood time playing it. Sometimes, my parents are busy with work so they couldn't play with me. However, I never felt lonely with monopoly board game. Furthermore, it trains one's mind. I am usually the bank whenever it comes to monopoly games. I just can't help but smile and be happy whenever I hand money to people. 

My friends and I were bored as there were a 3 hour break between our lessons. We didn't had much stuff to do as well so we walked to the library and played Earthopoly - An Eco-friendly version of monopoly.

Just like the rest of the Opoly family of games from Late for the Sky Earthopoly is a board game in which you collect properties. But in an earth friendly twist you increase your property values by collecting Carbon Credits and trading them in for Clean Air - how eco-cool is that? If you are bad, Instead of getting sent to jail you get sent to the dump. If you hit the big time in clean energy you can advance to "Go Green" and collect mucho Carbon Credits.It is pretty cool as you will learn more about being green!!

The kids enjoy learning about the environment and the whole family gets to learn about nature, carbon tax, wind power, and pristine environments. Whether or not you use Earthopoly as a learning tool or just another fun family time game it looks like fun times to me - but then I'm a bit of an eco geek...

Not Only Is Earthopoly A Game About The Earth It Is Entirely Eco-Friendly Itself.

* The ink is vegetable oil-based ink.
* The monopoly game pieces are either made by nature or completely recyclable.
* Game box made from 100 percent recycled Chip board.
* All the paper is recyclable and is made with 10 percent recycled pulp that comes from a mill that purchases pulp that is monitored by a responsible third party forest management group.
* Green Power was purchased for the electricity used to manufacture the paper for the box (renewable energy in the form of wind, hydro, and biogas).
I suggest monopoly fans or Eco friendly to have a go at this game. It is really fun and special as you usually would not play the Eco-Friendly version. This links back to AEC citizery because we should protect our one and only Earth. 
Furthermore, it is fun to play with a group of friends. Time to put down your phone and have a great time with your friends.

伤痕累累

我很想你。。。你呢？你是否也跟我一样？ 在安宁的晚野， 我看着月亮想着你，因为我知道我们是不同世界的人。  可我已经很累了。。。 因为你的爱与存在，带给我的只是负担和担忧 。 我不想在这样了，可我却还是放不下。 那天，我们又偶然遇见了对方。我们却不理彼此，匆匆忙忙地走过。我知道我们已经回不了那幸福快乐的日子。可是我们哪到就不能当好朋友了吗？ 和醒来让泪水打湿斑斑泪痕的枕边，对于错没有界定，我们都在承受命运的捉弄。。。

AEC ( Worker Writes)

Worker Writes -  Migrant Workers Poetry Competition   Migrant Workers Poetry Competition is a very special competition because the participants were by people that leave their hometown, to come to Singapore to work. Many of the Poetry writes about how they miss their family members as well as their hometown.  one of favourite poetry is  乙未杂诗 千里过番落南洋，廿岁卅载未还乡。 孤衾残枕话凄凉，夜闻霪雨入寒窗。 沧桑羁旅多少秋，转徙图存鬓白头。 艋艟难载桑梓愁，唯把星洲作神州 Translated version  I crossed a thousand miles and settled in the foreign land of Nanyang. It has been twenty to thirty years since I returned to my hometown. Loneliness left its residue all over my pillow and blanket, At night I heard the downpour seeping through my shabby window. How many autumns have it been since I got trapped in a strange land? Moving around and struggling until my hair has gone grey. Even the ship cannot bear the load of my homesickness, All I can do is to imagine Singapore as China. (mig...

AEC ( We learned to play )

Local Art Event - Pioneer Junior College (PJC) concert I went to an local concert to support my senior.  Pioneer Junior College presents ELEMENTAL 2016 Poster of  PJC performing arts concert (Pioneer PJC Facebook page, 2016) Elemental 2016 is an apt metaphor to describe the rich and  dynamic heritage of PJCs performing arts groups. Their performances are fluid and ever-changing; with each moment that the performers present on stage providing a varied and multi-coloured lens of celebrating the arts. The act of immersive viewing could hence, be likened to the intimate relationship between the audience and the performers.  PJC performing arts consist of choir, symphonic band, drance and drama. I decided to support this concert because my seniors that was used to be in Kranji Secondary , were going to perform in the PJC symphonic band. I got to know my seniors as they were onced in Kranji symphonic band. We were close as we were from ...
