Coming Soon in 2009 Term 1 Week2!

Gazillion years ago, unlike modern times, the Polar Bear and the Penguin co-inhabited happily and lovingly in the North Pole, much like how the birds and bees live in harmony on the same tree.

One day however, A giant creature known as a Big Kian Dog came into town. He was bigger, braver and hungrier than both the Polar bear and the Penguin.

The Big Kian Dog ate up all the fishes in the North Pole and only left the bones of the fishes for the Polar Bear and the Penguin to eat. This left the Polar Bear and the Penguin as very skinny creatures while the Big Kian Dog grew horizontally in size.

The suffering continued for the Polar Bear and the Penguin for 8 long years.

One fine day, on Mother’s Day, at 11:37pm, the fairy Godmother, Hot Slud, came out of her 10-year long beauty spa treatment and stumbled upon the sight of the skinny Polar Bear and the Skinny Penguin.

Hot Slud was sympathetic to the Polar Bear and the Penguin, but Hot Slud’s 10-year long spa treatment had reduced her weight from 150kg to 40kg, much like how a tree trunk became a twig. Hot Slud was therefore in no shape to bash up the Big Kian Dog, who weighed an amazing 120kg.

One fine night, on Christmas Day though, Hot Slud appeared to both the Polar Bear and the Penguin’s dream and told them of this wonderful place called the South Pole. It’s very far away but there are plentiful fishes. In addition, there lived an Eskimo called P.Poh in the South Pole. P. Poh worked as a peanut thief who would steal peanuts from the rich during the night, keep it in his Crumpler bag and distribute it to the poor, after he eats 70% of it of course.

However, there was a catch. P.Poh is a very territorial peanut thief and would only allow one animal to enter the South Pole, Ie. Either Penguin or Polar Bear.

The last animal, the Rahman Rabbit, tried to sneak in his lover, the Gladys Goat, into the South Pole to enjoy the multitude of peanuts available there. Rahman Rabbit woke up the next week to find P.Poh eating Goat steak everyday instead of his usual staple of peanut paste with rosemary. Rahman Rabbit didn’t survive either. He was given no more peanuts to eat since then and he died of starvation.

P.Poh will allow only one animal to go to the South Pole…. Only one. To decide, the Eskimo, P.Poh decided that the Polar bear and the Penguin must play a ancient game of Eskimo Ball… And the winner gets to go to the South Pole where he will enjoy a buffet a peanuts EVERYDAY.

Before we get too carried away with dreaming about the peanuts, Eskimo ball is basically a game very much similar to ultimate Frisbee but played instead with volleyball. The objective of the game in to pass the ball to the your team mate in the end zones, located at the each end of the field. A player may not run when holding on to the ball. Simple eh?
