The Amazing Race.... 1st Episode..

After 72,000 miles around the galaxy, the four young padewans, BerDoinkDoink, MaMaMia, Eweeee, and Semi-dark choco had landed in Tampines Regional Library, the final pitstop. They ran, they flew, they schemed but sadly, it was not enough to win THE AMAZING RACE.

Starting from the Nerdy Loser Building near Bapok Street, they sped off to White Sands where they had to search for a cooking recipe and perform a cooking demonstration with whatever props they had.

At the next stop, at Geylang East, they had to embarrass themselves and do a role play based on a comic strip. All was well and they embarked on their journey to the next route marker.

Things were not so smooth sailing for the 4 young padewans as they encountered a dark force at the third route marker at Bedok. An evil Lord Marshall gave them a tough task. That almost caused them an elimination as they struggled against all odds to complete the task. But persevere they did, and they managed to find an Indian Folktale and dramatised it with ease.

Finally, the final pit stop was made known and they headed out to Tampines Regional Library. Due to the 1 hour yield placed on all teams, they were all not able to proceed with the fourth and final task. All teams were told to fill their empty stomachs and be back by 2.30pm.

Determined as ever, the four young padewans reported to me that they were going to sacrifice their lunch to wait in front of the doors to the final pitstop to ensure a first position which they already had... and that was at 1pm.........

Alas, they lack the will. The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak... They got hungry. They succumbed to their needs. They walked away and gave their first position away at 1.30............... (after 30 minutes of waiting)

Nevertheless, there are other prizes which are yet to be announced. Henceforth, I will now leave my unknown location in the galaxy which turned out to be Simpleville anyway and depart for the final pit stop in the hope that they'll walk away with something.... perhaps a lesson, an adventure, a memory that they'll never forget.

4 young padewans here I come.....
