We had a rather last-minute BBQ today in Woflson College, even though the weather forecast said,"Light Showers".


Axel, Sandra (Germany), 'Good Fren' and I (Singapore) prepared the basic stuff, and invited people to join us with their own BBQ and beverage selection.


Kristof (Belgium) preparing his lamb chops with much tenderness.


The BBQ grill is like a little social node. People gather around and chat incessantly.


FWAH! Look at what's on the grill!!

See the chicken wings? Those are our contribution.
Marinated with honey, oyster sauce, chardonnay, pepper and lots of chopped garlic for 24 hours.

Check out people enjoying the food!

Erik (US) devouring the chicken wing while his wife, Clarie looks on.

Deepankar (India) enjoyed the chicken wing too!


Wontak (South Korea) was so happy with steak. It was his breakfast!


Looks like a normal BBQ...

Until it started getting 'educational'...

First... Erik taught us how to check if the steak, i.e. done to different degrees.

That was kind of normal...

Somehow, they saw me squatting on the grass, got amazed at how long I could last in that position, and started to join in.

Here are Kristof and me.

In the end, everyone was trying to squat!!!

Germans squatting...

I wonder what onlookers would think!!
We were pushing one another in the squat to see who the most stable squatter was?!!

Veerle (Belgium) and Gijs (the Netherlands) joined in...

Even the serious Austrian, Walther, joined in!!!

If so many smart MBAs are doing it, squatting must be a good thing eh?! =)))

The view from the squat... is goooooooooood!!


For more information on squatting, please refer to this instructional video.


And before we knew it, we had been burning, eating, drinking and squatting for at least 4 hours.

So, we tidied up and left.

This is probably the last BBQ with them for a long time to come.
Perhaps the next time, we meet, everyone would have perfected their squat!
