Nova Yancey Junkers Connor


to SH, i finally met Melvin in the morning. lol, like after 4 days ,then i found him, like some rare treasure or something like that. anyway, he didn't need a pack of tissue.
i tapped my ez-link card on the scanner this morning and it gave a delightful beep!
-attendance recorded-

Today was wet games day.
and well, honestly, i forgot the names of the games. well, i don't really need to tell you what the game involves. again, pictures can convey a lot of information.

this game involves carrying a wet sponge in between your elbow. ooh, now i recall, the game's called Elbow power. reach a pail at the other end and squeeze the water out into a bottle,without use of hands.
Gamemasters kept blasting us with streams of water.



haha, my OG!


and there, me. finally. it took like 5 uploads to get all the pics on a post, half of which were taken by my OGL Joyce! i gave her the phone. kidding. gave it to her for safekeeping, but she took so many good pics. thank you:)
wow, that guy in the background is really hunky. and our school has many super tall people. some even taller than Wenkai. gasp~ testosterone gone wild.
but that guy is hunky.





im wearing Sec 2 Charity Chaotic T-shirt, the one with words printed in hot pink on the back!
Hey! my '32nd mass dance' partner.

hello dance partners!



second game. easy guess. why is a balloon tied to everyone's feet? well, the answer comes naturally; balloon popping war.

3rd game: 2 teams compete to remember each other's tribe member name. then, the 2 tribes are blocked by a large canvas sheet. 3 members from each tribe step up. canvas sheet drops down. shout the name of any member of the 3 and throw a cupful of water at him/her.

4th game: involves water bomb-bags. water warzzzzz. i got drenched trying to protect target.

lunch break. changed into OG shirt. ate dory fillet with brown sauce.

after that, we went to the hall, to learn the traditional dance.
traditional as in college tradition.
new dance partner. paired with another girl. guys with guys are absolute NONO as demonstrated by an OGL male pair acting gay.
trad. dance was fun, i think learning to dance is fun. this dance has many parts where the dancers have to shout, Whoot Whoot! while doing the Hungarian(which is a dance move,
make your right elbow and left knee meet, vice versa)

this experience has indeed changed my view on dancing.
Whole Nova group went to dance studio to choose representatives for dancing competition.
latter, we went back to hall again to learn the waltz. once again, a different dance partner. she was like 3/4 my height and she kept saying im very tall. lol.
doing a waltz involves 3 steps using an imaginary square on the floor. then change angle of feet to rotate. we had to work as a pair to give signals to change position of feet and such.
and tadaahh~ waltzing around. switch partners, waltz, switch partners, do waltz again, switch...
i've made so many friends today just by learning to dance.
cheering prep work after that.
and finally, the Cheering Competition.
fun while it lasted, all 4 tribes were screaming their lungs out. hope ppl living in those flats don't complain.


OG eats dinner, saw Kenneth Lee playing tennis in one of the tennis courts, said Hi! and he replied with a weird: im playing badly...
ok.... keep improving?

gathered in hall for the Dancing competition.
tough fight, even Melvin participated, but you did great!
and i've got to say this, there were some really awesome dancers up there.
Yancey tribe had both dancing king and queen and ended up the tribe with the highest points because the dancing king and queen gets 50,000 worth of points.
and the winner of the cheering competition was Junkers. but good job, we did give our best.

The planning committee did the 32nd mass dance.
Disco Night started after this and the dance floor was opened
woohoo, artificial fog! laser lights! Disco music! btw, the pic above was really what the stage looked like from the back of the hall when the fog was on.
we formed trains/human chains and rushed around the dance floor. others formed circles and danced away.
and disco music made everyone mildly crazy, a little high and we just mingled around. everyone jumped along the chorus of Lady Gaga's Bad Romance. we put our hands in the air and jumped repeatedly.
complete strangers danced together and it was hard to find anyone from your OG group. when i did, we will just do random dancing and enjoy the music.
OGLs were up on stage showing off their dance moves while OGMs stared in awe.

it ended after 1hour, aw...
the last day of orientation ended with a debrief of tomorrow's events.

tmr's the CCA bazaar, i wonder what CCA i'll chooose, still unsure.

my whole body aches from dancing too much, crawling to bed. good night.




signing off.
