Thanks on Wine Tasting

Wine Tasting today was a Funtastic session. Stretching 7 batches and some friends of KR Alumni, everyone had something to talk about over the 4 wines we tasted and tasty german sausages, cheese and Flammkuchen (a form of pizza much better as agreed by most.)

Mr Leonardo had given us a great intro to the various wines and most loved the last one Shereuber, a form of dessert wine.

More romantic with wine?


Unfortunately friends who support KR Alumni are too shy to show their face, so they show more hair instead.



Big Serene and Dora lee (before one turns red and the other remains, make a guess)



All that sausages......



And all that cheese.

Rating: 8/10
Nice atmosphere, great hosts, great food. Location good.
Air conditioning could be better with doors closed. Parking could be a problem. Slightly costly food but cheaper by european standards.

Sharing Series I Concluded

Last week we saw a few accomplished alumni making a trip down to KRH Sem rm 3 to share some job hunt tips & experiences to abt 15 lucky residents who hear 1st hand advices in this challenging job market.

As usual, these speakers charmed the audience with their witty & interesting anecdotes, gave valuable inputs to the lucky residents to edge themselves from their peers. Though these advices come small, they would be probably be useful in the times ahead. Judging from the positive response, the KRAC intends to pull in other speakers to cover the other spectrum of the job market. Of course, bearing in mind the current KR calender of events, KRAC would work closely with the hall leaders to get a best fit timing.

Finally, a big thank you to the distinguished speakers - Felicia, Vincent Gan, Kelvyn Choo, special thanks to the alumni who attended as well - Steph Ng, Hui Ting & Qingyou.

Looking forward to your continued support.

Here are some snapshots of the event. Enjoy!

Launch of NEW KR JACKET! *UPDATED

Dear KR Alumnus,

KRH has launch a new series of KR Jacket to replace our old (& boring) set. See below for the visual design of the KR jacket. It is a good quality jacket, not to mention stylo milo design as well.

In conjunction with the launch, KReach (KR Youth Expedition Team) is working together for a fund-raising initiative. So, in simple terms, every jacket you buy, a x% will go in for a good cause, to the YEP project that KR has been working with in Chiangmai, Thailand for the past 2 years (yes, I'm 1 of the pioneer batch & i can tell you funding is a major hurdle). So lend us your support, in spirits & in dollars.Here are a few things to note:

1) Cost = $25

2) Sizes available: XS (use Pearline's size as a gauge) to XXL (use Zee's size as a gauge).

Some people's size as a gauge - S (lishi), M (teck yong), L (guoyong), XL (sunny).

3) The Blue is a deeper blue than the one shown in the picture. It's not so bright.

4) Under the Kent Ridge Hall, there will be National University of Singapore, but of a smaller font.

5) There is a tucked-in hood. Like the Team NUS jacket.

6) EMBROIDERED NAME on the inside of the right collar (white thread). extra cost = $2. this is in discussion with the supplier. So for those who wish to embroider their names, do leave the name you wish to use when placing order. I will let you guys know again.

If you have any other questions do let me know. I will try my best to get the measurements of the jacket if you guys feel it's necessary [UPDATED]. Hope you guys can help me take orders from alumni. We will take orders on a rolling basis, so just submit whatever orders you guys receive by end of this week. We can do another collation at the end of next week :)

Actual sample jacket should arrive early next week. I can take photos of it when it arrives and send it to you guys too.

Qingyou
