day 1
we were amused by out OG's appearance on stage!
quite lamelame de, but i can see they took many
greatleaps of courage to make us feel at ease..
mingquan "donbe afraid of mockery from those who are afraid of shinning themselves!"
icebreakers was successful, the hahaha game was the most interesting one.
i almost cudn control myself from bursting out in laughter

hongyi& guppy's og =)
& WE WON THE RACE!


thanks to our wonderfully gentlemenly instructor
n to all the guys! (there were only 4 gals!)
but we tried our veh best k!
we nv gave up lorm,
we bite on until our arms burn!!

we went back sch to bathe.
we went ghimmoh hawker .
we went as a class too =)
& how many other JCs aft a day of tiresome running around and dragonboating & series of amazingly mindblowing puzzlement
wud go out to some hawker for dinner =)

it was jam night.
when we entered the hall i was so so so touched.
the seniors had the halls all made up,
wif streamers and a gigantic ball in the centre,
wif the lighting and ballons
the band n the food
& the presence of 4 mighty greek angels .
it was rly heartwarming to knw they put in so so so much effort.
wad happen to their bathing n resting time?
did they even eat dinner?

jam night is so high!
we were all jumping around and high-ing,
joel won our house the sexiest leg =)

he's been rly a great entertainment to our class XD
we danced our mass dance and cheered =)
its lik a grad night expect them joy and anticipation took over the place of melancholy and separation=)

nxt up was fright night =)
as the name goes,
we watched 2 movies,
1 is an absolutely boring thriller wif a absolutely bad ending,
the another was dorm.
i loved the movie.
i watched wif bond7 before le.

aft that was CSI.
it was eeriely cool lah!
i hv nv participated in such activity =)
in our grps we have to go in pairs to talk around sch to solve a murder.
it is so complicated,
love hate lust greed ambition all included leh!
we managed to solve it wif a lil the help of my OGL =)

emelyn my ddearest partner was the only other soul wif me during our wAlks.
we walked thru the field into the senior high block and UP the container classroom
wif only a greenlightstick n notebook in hand.
the station had red lightsticks placed outside.
how creepy the night can sometime crawl up your sleeves.
i felt that a real detective piecing up the clues tgt.
it rly put our trust and cooperation to the test as only 2 ppl can get to visit any particular place.
u knw there is this glove at the crimescene...
n there is the receipt of the gloves in the waste paper basket of the teacher' room!
there is this doll keychain thingy.
n there is a similar one in meiyi's room.
but these are all minor things,
needless to say 2 diff grps of ppl visited the diff places.

i thk 2grps found it.
really applaud u all lor!


we ended our night activity at 6am.
it was the first time we had camp activities overnight!
the teachers are rly cool on it=)

hais,
needa thank our seniors once agn..
& the log team.

they are the ppl who set up the stations and cleared up aft us.
u knw throughout the whole camp,
seniors didnt even request us to do area cleaning or any sort.
huiqi always like our mama,
do everyth for us,
take our food n water..
n annabel was another mama
carry our stuff here and there..
touched XD
to lead is to learn to serve =)

we had flag raising aft that,
and more mass dance practises =)
we had a cheering high aft that.
we came out wif a house cheer by ourselves!
i thk blue hse had the most minimum help from our seniors,
so thats someth we shud be proud off =)

who let the dogs out?

aft that we went back home.

i reached home at 1 n left the hse at 430.
i haven slpt the whole night n only rested 3h..
it was super zombi-fied.

we went out as a class agn =)
like joel said,
the bonding served as a glue to keep us from changing sub combi!!!
i love my class!!!


so cool right,
my Og flag is so pure.
our name means purity in greek mah, =)
the grand finale at ECP was one of the highest time i ever had.
we danced, we played,
it was so dark dat we cud only identify each other wif lightsticks.
blue hse had blue lightsticks etc...
to gather our class
we had to cheer
5c34 来
5c34 来5c34 来5c34 来5c34 来...
it was so so so so cool.
i so had a sense of belonging.. =)
many thanks to jh for swipping up the cheer =)

"whether or not the orientation is fun,
its really up to each individual =)"

i rmb somebody once said it,

instead god places opportunities in your life =)
