7:00am, Morning Chanting + Tai Chi @ Main Shrine
by Venerable MiaoYu
We had our morning chanting @ the main shrine. After that will be da Tai Chi session which is quite funny. Cz do you know Tai Chi is kinda slow motion thingy? Like you move slowly and its quite funny to do it in such a big group. I heard someone laughing at the back. Yea its funny but i still enjoyed it!
After the Tai Chi we had a short walking meditation. Reverend taught us how 2 walk properly cz as u know many people dono how 2 walk PROPERLY.

9:00am, Game 2 - Dharma Hunt
From the name u will know, its a treasure hunt kinda game. But its about Dharma, so we need to hunt something with some Dharma knowledge clues. Hmmm... Gather all the BRAINS in our group, we managed to get all the clues and papers.

A staff TRANSFORMED into a beggar in one of the quiz.
But its kinda messy cz we dono who won at the last! Cz we seems to be da 1st to get all papers. Hmm.... Weird. Anyhow, we had a tea break after the Dharma hunt. Kinda nice and we took some pics.

Arhat! Back row from left we have Chanon, Jason, Gabriel, Chyi Main, Raymond. Front row from left is me, Yolanda, Winky and Tina.

11:00am, State group performance rehearsal
We had a group performance from every state and we need to rehearse for it. So da organizer purposely re-arranged the time for every group to rehearse.

Everyone from Melbourne.

Figuring how to make it not that lame? Hehehe....
Finally everyone from Melbourne know how to sing or 'perform' the 'lame' song. Y its lame? Cz its kinda boring and lame compared to other groups. Really.... =_=|| I feel so lame bout it. I reckon Melb can do better than this.
After the rehearse, Abbess said it was a great day and we should take some outdoor group photos!
