Salt Spring Island Trip

13 - 14th Feb

Reading break is finally here, a long awaited and much needed break. With midterms and assignments out of our way. AIESEC Victoria was ready to party it up with Jenny ( a.k.a Kimchi ) in Salt Spring Island.

We went to Salt Spring Island with 15 people. Imagine that ! everyone was on time and even on a Sunday morning ! Impressive eh !

Shopping with a $200 budget to feed15 people was fun. Jenny and I spent an hour in Cosco. Pushing our cart through huge and tall shelves. Everything is in Plus sizes. A 10L bottle of soy sauce , 10 kg of sugar, Cereals in giant boxes…. A thought occurred to me : What will happen if the huge bag of coffee fell on me. ‘Death by coffee’ oooooo……. Scary…

Overall, it was a really crazy trip, crazy but fun, we were extremely tired by Monday afternoon.

Details for the trip can be found at Jenny's blog..I have cut and paste from hers.

Taken from Jenny’s Blog :

FOOD:
We had great lunch: Sandwiches. We had great dinner: Microwaved Lasagna (2 hours in the OVEN ?!?!?! Well, why not use the BBQ Grill? :) We had great snacks....yummy gummi worms soaked in water & energy drinks, sweets, chips, more lasagna, garlic bread,...We had a great breakfast (what to do with 200 extra rolls?!)...

SUMMARY: Basically we ate all weekend :P

SIGHTSEEING:
We went to Ganges, Ruckle Park (where I managed to get myself all WET & DIRTY)...plus mess with my knee...OUCH! Our attempt to get up the hill (Monday morning) wasnt very succesful, so we had to turn around (all the backing up with the icy road was actually kind of a teambuilding game). Celine & me spent about 20 mins to take pictures of fruits & vegetables :D

ENTERTAINMENT:
Ok, we played some fun games..made Deno crawl through 6 guys spreaded legs, made Sai drink Michael's saliva, interviewed our President & the first lady about their love story, learned who wants to get with who in the LC (surprisingly NOT EVERYONE wanted Sai :P, and Emil, I STILL dont buy it :P). Sang was so lucky to get a lapdance from SAI and Celine got licked by Emil so often, that she eventually got used to it ;) And Deno told me some things I would have rather not known :P lol just kidding you, sweetie!

THANK YOUs:
  • Michael, Dave & Jen (Wilson): Thanx for driving!

  • Celine: Thanx for shopping & helping with the food!

  • All tha little helpers: Thanx for helping preparing the food :)

  • Weather-God: Thanx for the awesome weather (even though it could have been a tiny bit warmer ;)


  • LESSONS LEARNED:
  • You can make Lasagna in a BBQ grill

  • Discussing Religion early in the morning drains your brain ;)

  • Jenny & Celine are ANO, and that's why Sai loves us

  • Jenny & Celine are both PHOTO-MANIC, that's why Sai hates us

  • Emil's name is fun...A MEAL, A MULE, EMAIL....
