Hey guys! I've finally found a better server that host our photos for free. It offers unlimited uploads, no file size restrictions (meaning the photos uploaded there are as clear as the ones in the original format) and unlimited bandwidth. Best of all, it pays us! Every 1000 photo views will give us 22 cents (USD if I'm not wrong)! But the minimum amount inside the account before we can "withdraw" the money is $20. So we will need around 90k views to get the money out. That's just a bonus though. So just ignore that as I doubt it's possible to get that much views.

I've finally managed to upload all the pictures and you can now view our photos here! It will lead you to all the folders. New photos will be uploaded there as well. Anyone who has any photos to contribute please send it to me so that I can upload it there. If possible I'll still try to continue using the photobucket but this seems much better than that. Haha. Our current class folder will still remain in use for other documents. I've uploaded the class mailing list there as well so do grab a copy from there if you lost the one in your email. As usual, I'll post here if there's any updates in the class folder or the photos hosting websites.

For the class chalet, please throw in some ideas for the activities that you all might want to do. Sin Zhi suggest bring 15 packs of poker cards so that we can erm... build card towers. :D Now the problem is finding that many poker cards. Anyway, the check in time on 31st Dec is 2:30 pm and check out time on 2nd Jan is 10:30 am so we can plan things to do before and after check out etc. Note that we can check in before 2:30 pm to use their facilities, but not go into the room. There are BBQ area, swimming and wadding pool, 2 (American) pool tables, internet kiosk for free internet surfing and bicycle kiosk at the chalet. More information are here so check them out and think of the things that we can do. Pasir Ris Park and the beach is also nearby.

There are also many activities at Downtown East, including a countdown party on 31st Dec from 8pm to 3am so you guys might want to join in the party there. Free admission. More information on the events are here and more on the promotions there are here. So start thinking and give us your ideas. The most important thing is to save and bring money for the chalet. :P

For the dinner we can have 1 night pot luck and 1 night BBQ if you guys want. The BBQ (if we cater) will cost around $15 or more per person. Since the BBQ area (free) is just outside the room (or somewhere around there) and we might (not completely sure) be able to get a BBQ gift set (free) from the chalet, a BBQ might be possible with a lower price if we just buy the food ourselves from supermarket and charcoal from You Sheng. If there no BBQ gift set, we can just recycle the BBQ things from our last BBQ session. Shoot your comments away!

That should be all for now so start thinking! Someone will post again here when we have a conclusion for all the things or there are new updates. So go ahead and discuss! Meanwhile, enjoy our class photos here!
