Let's recall. Had ogl briefing on last friday. Was pretty content heavy for me since i didnt came for all e trngs. After that watch 赤壁ii with all e guitar peeps. it was definitely worth watching, and although we sat at the 1st row straining our necks, we were all smiles when we left(: Saw Jason and his friends too. Went home after eating with Dejian and prepared for Saturday.
Saturday was a tiring day. We went to volunteer ourself in this painting CIP and clean this old man house thoroughly! Although we took like a long time (around 8 hours), it was pretty satisfying to see the house turned from black to white(: Going back on feb 7 , interested ppl pls tell me(: Went back home full of aches and paint and bruises.
Finally ORIENTATION 2009! this was my 1st time being an OGL and i thought the experience was definitely memorable(: began camping in school on Sunday night, ate kfc for Sunday night, macs for Mon breakfast, kfc for Monday night-.- Ghim Moh's still e best for food): Met my OG along with Roy on Monday. At 1st thought they were pretty dead, and i was thinking "oh god. how am i supposed to rah-rah them for the upcoming 5 days" Fortunately, my fear was unfounded as i have several great year 6s' to help me- Roy , Ming Quan, Wei Cheng, Kian Hong, Xiaoyou, etc(: All of them are humorous in their own way which have unknowingly shaped our group into what it is now- a weird K11-.-
Day 1!
This was a tough day for me, practically still living in e shadow of the past, it's really really hard for me to act happy. The feeling of standing in the crowd along singing the national athem sucks. When i look around, i felt so lost and absolutely hated it when ppl start staring at me. Kept telling i just have to get used to it, but trust me, it is NOT easy at all.
Started with housebreaker when there is only 10 mins for one game. I thought it wasn't really effective at all. Went on with 31 legged race which i really have to thank weicheng for coordinating the movement for me while i am still in the hellish mood. Manage to shake it off gradually and was really really proud of them when they got 12.8 seconds. It may not be e best but seeing them smiling together warms my heart(:
After that was school tour, it was a terrible mistake by me): i sincerely apologise to my og! i thought we were to get 5 yellow envelops, but didn't realise we are suppose to complete 5 real stations.. thus when i got the 5th envelope, i happily told gladine last station and thus she say if last station dun have to take at all.. and i stupidly gave it up to her. Returned to the LT happily as 3rd-.- Slack for like half an hour b4 realising something went wrong and then went on to do the last station. Return last): SORRY OG!
Only up til here, i realised Imelda is Joanne and vice versa-.- ended day 1 with sort of low morale due to the sch tour):
Day 2!
Today was alot better! Dragon Boat was plenty fun due to sharon nicknaming us as kaobei(: Actually i think we are really kaobei-.- super noisy at times hahaha. This is what orientation should be like(: We emerge 2nd at the race! After that went to leisure park, tried Who am i?- a spicy Korean sauce on the chicken. My voice went to the moon after one mouth. Still can rmb the churning feeling in the stomach. Strongly nt encouraged for the weak-hearted- and also the weak stomach. Telematch was great for bonding! Kinda shocked that they were so bonded that they hugged together to protect Roy(: However, roy still got pretty wet. Oh well everyone had fun!
After that was og interaction time. Played loads of stupid game like polar bear and tuki-tuki. Absolutely hate polarbear, nvr got past the 1st stage. PPL KILL ME COS THEY FEEL LIKE IT LO!unfairness. Haha(:
Day 3!
Last day of year 6! dread this day as i fear when they go we will be super quiet again. Went to KSC in high spirits. Played Look-Out and emerge as champion! went to play the watafest letter hanging and got last-.- See how inconsistent we are. Played water polo too. Won too:D
Taught them a stupid game of huh, what. Was very amazed they are so entertained by it-.-
Went to ECP for other games. Played this digging game. Hell we are super stupid. we never answered any of the question correctly until the last one. And when we did, we dug nothing but forfeits. What " jump into the sea 3 times". LIKE WE WILL. Bury the forfeit back again quickly xP
Went on the the next game and won again:) the fastest ball- Kirin own. Painted ourself like caterpillars and wanted to challenge the last game. It was cancelled due to the violence. although we are totally prepared, none wanted to play with us. We happily announced we win then-.- Went for og dinner at Mos! Mq being himself again. Remembered i was totally shagged then on the verge of fever. Say good bye to the year 6's and waited for cluedo.
Cluedo was quite boring i must say. Everyone was sleepy and groggy. haha. i pretty much seen much of the scarers so were prepared for some scares. Nonetheless i guess it manage to bond all of us tgth more(:
Day 4!
this is the day whereby we have hell loads of pictures!(: started the day with hse activity- proving that we are true kirinmons. Had algor dance after that was pretty funny to see everyone doing the same thing:)
went for pac monster race after that. 1st food was at downtown!#%^&. unfairness again. haha went there for Mr bean. Was supposed to complete e task of passing rubber band for 5m.
