Hi guys,

This was the article that came out in the April issue of Time Out Singapore. I picked up my copy at 7 Eleven. Enjoy. It'll take a while to load so do hang in there.

I like the words very much.

It makes me think perhaps one further step can be taken and make it rhyme.
:D

Sadly, I won't be able to donate blood again :cry: :cry: as it's 2 weeks too early for me (and that is for my 10th Week too, the minimun rest period allowed between each Blood Donations). Unless someone use Jedi Mind trick on the Receptionist and Doctor into seeing it's my 10th Week from their "record". :twisted:

But will be there to give support from the beginning till the end, hopefully in (Costume). 8)

For the coming Blood Wars event on Saturday 5 May, we will be supporting the launch of the Birthday Programme by Bloodbank@HSA.

Drop by with family and friends between noon and 3pm to participate in games and find out more about the programme. Star Wars and Star Trek characters will be present for photo opportunities.

Blood donation will be ongoing throughout the day (9am to 4pm), and we encourage those who are eligible to donate blood to do so.

See you at Bloodbank@HSA :)

It was a fun day at the Bloodbank, together with our friends from Star Trek, Blood Buddy, Volunteers and especially... the Blood Donors.

A new friendship was forged as the Imperials got to know Blood Buddy :)
Image

Our new friend, Blood Buddy, was a little "sad" when the crowds chose to have their photos taken with the troopers instead :(
Image
a side thought: I wonder if a blood drop could have tear drops?? 8)


But the Imperials brought back the smile on Blood Buddy as they promptly welcomed him to join them in the photo with our Star Trek friends :D
Image

.. and with Blood Donors :D
Image

... and not forgetting the volunteers :D
Image

The visitors were bewildered when our Stormtrooper and Biker Scout joined in the game of Snakes & Ladders :o
Image

Our Biker Scout was on a roll, knocking 2 participants back to the starting point :twisted:
Image

But the Stormtrooper had the better luck... though last to join the game, he beat everyone to the finishing point! :shock:
...and you wonder why Imperials are seen to be the Bad Guys :lol:

We should be seeing more photos from the other cameras soon... Look forward to seeing photos of little Jedi, an Imperial Blood Buddy, and the rest of the troopers present. Thanks for the support and another job well done, folks! :)
