The Purpose of Life

This was my first event of another ethnicity ever since I started working. It was a brand new experience for me.

It was a talk given by a respected elderly in their community. All the people were so interested that lots of papers with burning questions were passed onto the speaker's table. I do not really understand what the speaker was talking about even though it was delivered in English. Too "chim" for me.

Many that arrived had their prayers at the Zhong Foyer before entering the house. Females were asked to take the seats at the right side of the hall while the males took the left and the middle section. The females were allowed to take the middle section of the second half of the hall after the hirer was certain that there were no more male participants that would be entering. Hmm.

Not bad that there were ushers from the organiser that guided the people where to seat. But we only know of the seating arrangements after observing for a moment as we were not given any instructions with regards to that. Hmm.

The event ended with a stack of questions not yet answered. The emcee said that the answers will be posted on their website. That was a good way to have everybody's question answered and share what questions other people have.
