Jeremy Lin plays “Candy Crush”; Lucifer Chu plays “Puzzle & Dragons”; 陳菊 plays 舉牌小人. What do you play? While cooking the imagination for our first try of the board game “DiXit”, we were distracted, yet thrilled, by the live news: Lisa wins the 2013 National Speech Champion. Yes!!! Congratulations, Lisa. (And we are expecting her wedding invitation coming soon. Lisa! La La La……)
Books are our reliable friends, and friends are awe-inspiring books. Again, Happiers’ sharing elevates our subject. The pretty teacher, Jane, has designed numerous creative games for her former students; the game Harris demonstrated to us can easily spice up the gathering atmosphere; Miss Hope noted that setting the learning goal is the key feature of the game design. Please always remember that having a playful heart is the best cure. How about the playful questions designed by Jeremy Lin? http://www.libertytimes.com.tw/2013/new/jun/9/today-sp23.htm Moreover, as Jane has pointed out that even small actions can be creative enough. For example, telling us the story of a picture you bring to us will definitely juice up your hosting job. In my opinion, there is no better thing we can do for our friends than listening to their stories.

Most importantly, Happiers’ passion for our Club is greatly appreciated—we are not alone on the journey. Thanks a lot for having us. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4XwSKSQKoo8
