Running out of ideas for the weekly game night with friends?

One group of young adults decided to give themselves the mother of all challenges – a Primary 5 maths exam.

In a TikTok video posted by a member of the group,
Gladys Yuen, the group comes across stacks of exam papers at a book sale and decide to see how well they’d fare on the maths paper. You know, just for fun.

Pouring themselves a glass of red wine, they toasted to their “brain cells” and began the examination – without calculators, mind you, because rules are rules.

However, for the group of friends, they went for a more grown-up version instead: wine.

Question 1: Find the base of the triangle.
Seemed simple enough, until Gladys realised the answer she had wasn't even listed in the multiple choice.


While the OP (Original Poster) initially seemed confident of herself when she understood the question, she realised that the answer she had in mind was not listed in any of the multiple choice options.

As they moved to the fourth question, some of her friends could not solve the question.

Complains that question has too many words
As the OP and her friends continued with the paper, they got stuck on a question involving a character named Mr Loh.

Out of frustration, one of her friends even cursed at Mr Loh as she was struggling to solve the question.

Okay, but maybe do a quick textbook revision first.  

Whether the
OP (Original Poster) and her friends managed to solve the questions, they definitely looked like they were having a lot of fun together.

In fact, she told MS News that she also encourages others to try out this activity, noting it was “
hilarious” to see how much she and her friends have forgotten about primary school math.

Would you try this activity out with your friends? Let us know in the comments.

In 1994, six friends participated in The New Paper Big Walk.

Twenty-four years later, they are walking together again - this time with their wives and children, a sign-up initiated by one of the six - Mr Mark Tan.

Mr Tan, a 46-year-old civil servant, even kept a news clipping of the crowd from the 1994 Big Walk as a souvenir.

Back then, the six men were physical training instructors doing their national service.

Now, they still meet at least twice a year.

Mr Tan told The New Paper: "All this while we have been talking about joining a walk or run together... Why not do another walk after over 20 years?"

The group met only once this year during Chinese New Year as their children are taking the national examinations.

So the walk, said Mr Tan, will be a good opportunity for them to catch up after many months.

For Mr Tan, who was a military engineering officer with the Singapore Armed Forces for six years, this group of friends is exceptionally close to his heart.

Along with another regular marathon runner in the group, he tried to persuade his friends to sign up for runs but to no avail.

"It is good to start with a walk instead of a run. It is also a good chance for the kids to catch up and chat, unlike runs.

"We encouraged our wives to come along too," said Mr Tan, whose wife and two children are participating.

Another member of the group, Mr Alvin Goh, is looking forward to the company of family and friends during the walk.

The 46-year-old, who works in the IT and engineering industry, told his two children about the six buddies' past participation in the Big Walk.

Said Mr Goh: "They are looking forward to experiencing what we experienced back then. It is good that we can finally come together again."

In 1994, the Big Walk was flagged off at the National Stadium. This year's walk will also start in Kallang - at the Singapore Sports Hub on 18 November 2018.

The New Paper Big Walk also partners two first-time sponsors, Workforce Singapore and the Tripartite Alliance for Fair and Progressive Employment Practices.
