Tired out

Just reached back home from sch... The Hall FOC just ended yesterday, but the different OGs had their own late night party after the closing ceremony of the FOC.

It had been a very tiring one week, playing all sorts of games, shouting wonderful cheers and doing embarrasing things!! Oh, and we actually broke the world record of the most number of couples going on a blind date together. That's quite cool actually with the media there filming the whole process.

The FOC has been quite fun actually, but it is really really very tiring. I still feel like sleeping now actually. However the weird thing is that almost everybody there who went for the faculty camp too also felt that the fac's camp was much more fun than the Hall camp. Same sentiments exactly here too haha...

Ok but I'll never ever forget all the fun and of course, the horrible things we went thru this FOC. There's the embarrasing moment when the guys had to actually do solo performance to find his secret pal thingy, oh gosh. But I guess the seniors there and the ladies of cos loved the stupid lame joke that I told them haa!!! And yes, there's the Food Fiesta, my OG guys really can cook!! woohoo!! The gado-gado that I prepared with them was best, yummy...

The Fright Night at Haw Par Villa was sucky. Blindfolded for hours waiting for your turn to enter. Think the scary mood was gone by the time I went in with my partner. The "ghosts" were like so off, dun match the place at all. Imagine the phantom or the Scream thingy in Haw Par Villa... they were just hilarious lah, my partner and I were just laughing our way through the whole journey.

Ok now I hope my voice will come back normal soon. It's really bad now my throat, after all the cheering and stuff... and yes my OG won the Best Cheers prize!! Haha...

Hmm anyway, school's going to start on Monday. Don't really know what to expect. It does sound scary actually, the thought of going to school, textbooks, tutorials, notes etc....and yah the professors there, I wonder what kind of people they are.

Okay, really need to go for a nap now, my eyes are really shutting down..... See ya all in sch!

One more FOC

Argh, one more FOC to attend... this time it's the Hall Freshmen Orientation Camp. Anyway, I got into Hall 12 after lots of screw up admin matters. Long story, I got alloted to Hall 10 while my roommate's in Hall 12 and they told me someone from Hall 10 actually recommended me in and I don't know who.

But never mind, all those don't matter anymore since I'm back to Hall 12 together with my roommate, Roland. Anyway, the room was very clean when we checked in. Wonderful, isn't it haha.

Okay, so I gotta pack my FOC stuffs again, buy another gift for another secret pal again and so on. Will be going to sleep in hall tonight so that I wouldn't have to wake up so early tomorrow morning like I did for the previous FOC.

Wonder what surprises they have for the freshies in this FOC. Just know that we won't get enough sleep and this is sucky enough haha. Alright, I'm a pig... I need lots of sleep haha. I hope my OG this time would also be as good and fun as the OG during my BS FOC, or else it'd be quite a turn off thing haha...ahh just kidding. I'm sure everyone there would be on fun-loving and more on-the ball than me haha.

Wonder what Hall life would be like, gotta bring in our own pillows, casings etc... bring in a thermoflask and should I bring my lappy in too tonight?

Don't know why I'm so lucky, kinda down with slight fever today after waking up... wonder if I'd be fit enough to participate tomorrow haha... quite tired and sick, sucks. Ok everyone's falling sick. I'm sick, dad's sick, sis's sick argh... hope everyone recovers soon.

Ok that's it for today. Don't feel like looking at the computer monitor anymore, getting giddy...
Take care everybody~~

The Titanic Song

This song seems to be embedded in my mind ever since the BS FOC last week haha.... and thinking of this song always remind me of that person singing it together with her hilarious action haha... i'm sure everyone remembers her performing the song to us...

Anyway here goes...

They build a ship titanic,to sail the ocean blue,
they tot they had a ship tat no water can run through,
but the lord of mighty hands knew the ship will never land
it was sad when the big ship went down
#oh it was sad
oh it was sad
it was sad when the big ship went down to the bottom
of the husbands and wives and the children lost their lives,
it was sad when the big ship went down#

Yup that's it.... I hope I got the lyrics correct though haha...

OG Outing @ Cafe Cartel

Had an Amazons Group Outing yesterday evening at PS Cafe Cartel. Almost everyone was present and I guess the objective was met. Interactions were taking place among both juniors and seniors and I believe everyone did have a great time last night.

After dinner at Cafe Cartel, we took a stroll down towards One Fullerton's Bakerzin where I had that cup of blueberry soda which costs $4.20 (not counting in the GST and service charge yet) and where the people at my table started playing games like 007 and sad to say, I have reflexes that are so good that I ended up doing a forfeit. Had to kiss a female stranger's hand, so weird. Guess she felt awkard too but no choice everyone was waiting for the forfeit to be carried out. Okay enough of the outing. Looking forward to the next one.

Anyway, had planned to go swimming this morning with my friends but I just couldn't wake up haha too bad. So ended up, typing this blog at home and watching the cartoon Jackie Chan on tv. It's kinda boring but this is the last week I can slack at home before school starts. Still wondering if I should go work tonight. Kinda sick of that job. Knocking on every door to ask if they plan to sell their apartments. And yes, I hate those dogs who can't stop barking at me. And the pay is miserable.

Time for my Straits Times... gotta look for the missing letters for the puzzle regarding their 160th Anniversary. Ciaoz

Post-orientation mood

Wow, 5 days just passed so quickly like that. On Monday morning, I was still dragging myself to NTU for my orientation camp, and now I'm back home already. Somehow, inside me, I still hope that this orientation didn't come to an end so soon. Although it was tiring to play games through the whole day till past midnight, they were fun enough to make us feel awake during the games.

I really don't regret going Exodus '05, which was the camp's theme this year. Made lots of new friends, getting to know the school surroundings better etc... And my Orientation Group was the best group among the 4 groups in the camp. I guess it was the camaraderie we developed with each other from the very first day. The seniors were outstanding too.

Apart from the usual few ice-breaking games played during orientations, we had a very fun initiation night and an outstanding Amazing Race. Except for the games played on the first day, we came in first place in the other subsequent games we played. However the Secret Pal dinner events were boring.

It's an orientation I feel it's different from the others I've been to. Definitely different. Having been to 2 JC orientations and being an OGL myself for 1 JC orientation, I can feel that this orientation is unique and it's so much more fun.

I'm not going to type much here for this post cos well there're too much things to type about if I were to type them in details. Basically, Exodus was a marvellous event and I'd like to thank the Committee for organizing such a fun week for us. On behalf of all freshmen of School of Biological Sciences, thank you all so much.

Pre-orientation mood

Argh it's my orientation camp tomorrow and it's gonna last all the way till 8th Jul, Friday. Hmm the feeling I'm getting is like, awww it's another outfield training for me... But no choice, just gotta go and yeah get to know new friends.

I took such a long time to pack everything into my bag, and guess what. One isn't enough, I needed to use 2 bags and both are like so bulky now. That's still okay, the worse thing is that I gotta leave house early tomorrow, get onto a train with 2 big bags and embark on the long, tedious journey towards NTU. Yes, travelling from east to west really tires me out even though I just sit there and do nothing on the train. OH did I mention sit? Argh, this reminds me, I won't even get to sit tomorrow in the train, well it's a working day tomorrow, unlike the Americans who celebrate Independence Day tomorrow and most probably wouldn't have to work.

Back to the topic, I got to reach there by 9am tomorrow morning (I guess I won't lose my way in there since there'd be many ppl like me heading for the same place.) Hmm, heard that I'll be spending 2 nights sleeping outside of school compound. Wonder where we'd be heading. Sentosa? Hmm not sure.

Just wrapped the gift for the so-called secret partner. Okay I didn't wrap it, my mum did it. Yah, too busy squeezing everything into the bag. Dorh, ok I admit, I suck at wrapping it so my mum did it for me. It should be a gift practical enough, I hope. I hate choosing gifts. But anyway, it's a cheap one, so but still it costs money. Sigh, I'm broke. My last month's pay isn't here yet.

Ok so I won't be seeing my Fujitsu, my Olympus and my Samsung for 5 days. In case you're still wondering what they are, they're my laptop, digital camera and my television. Guess I'd bring along my Creative and my Nokia along. The former would help me get to sleep especially on the first night of the camp (it's hard to slp when u're slping in a new place) and the latter would well, allow me to remain connected to the world outside? Hmm haha whatever!

SAF Day 2005

It only seems like yesterday when the I was standing there in the parade square of SAFTI MI for the one important day in the SAF Calendar. Yes, it's SAF Day once again today.

The words "March properly! Dig in your boots!", or "Right leg on the line!" and even "Don't f***ing move when you're in a parade!" are still ringing somewhere deep within my ears.
The scene where people are collapsing one after another during the rehearsals are still vivid in my mind.

Hmm and I remember those uncles, well not really uncles, there, poor thing haha, reservist already and they still gotta go back for marching and stuffs and I heard from them that that's their high-key ICT. It sounds stupid but yes, that's what they were doing.

I also remember the awesome marching by the Provost contingent, and also the sharp drills performed by them. Yes I admit they're good. Two-thumbs up for them.

But still yeah, it's hard to imagine that 1 yr ago, I was one of them standing there in the parade square for 3+ hours. It's quite an experience but still I hope I won't be recalled back just to be involved in this kind of stuff haha... Nooooo I don't want................
