orientation was WAH WOO WHEEEEEEEE~!



erm i hav to admit tt i came to sch w/o high expectations for orientation at the beginning,
cause this is Dunman High aft all,
and we're not traditionally good at this type of thing.
dunno why people jus hav this sterotype of DHS being cao muggers & CHINa & tt we dont do fun stuff unlike other so-called 'happening' JCs like VJ?

and to all of us Year 5 is just another year in DHS,
isn't this going to be jus another Xplore?



but i think the OGLs totally proved us wrong
by blowing our minds off with an Orientation so much better than expected!
so much so tt i think our our seniors really rock! ((:
they must hav put so much effort into this.



haha come to think of it i've really missed being a participant in this kindof thing cause i usually am the one to plan them.
it feels real good to hav ppl taking care of u
and i think we're really fortunate to hav such nice & enthu seniors willing to look after us!
think our Year 6s really deserve our respect and a round of applause
as i know they didnt hav a really fun orientation themselves but
still are really dedicated and willing to sacrifice for our sake.
seniors真伟大！



okok back to the main point.
i'm in OG 6, and OG6-11 make up House B - the RED ang gong gongS
(house A - orange, C - green, D - blue)
OG 6 + OG 7 - Year 6s = 5C12 -> my civics grp (:

Day 1
had flag rasing with 4e (naturally grp tgt) as there was no visible markings for civic grps.
admin took up the whole morning.
had icebreakers by class. play 'home chucky'.
[ JinHui's 不好玩. HAHA ]
came up with this Royston GL cheer. and this 'suck-up' cheer (:
there was this ballon game by house, which was kind of violent.

had Taxidi
we were like one of the last grps la.
the starter clue they gave was totally HUH?
and our teacher was, ai yah, dont want to mention him.

station 1 - some park in tanjong pagar
where we mixed mock-tails (ours was 80% apple juice) haha.
station 2 - SAFRA mt faber
pool! i seriously tried to play..
station 3 - redhill HDB
reached there they ask us to turn back -.-

started learning mass dance.
All Stars cum Larger than Life, with moves tt are quite idiot-proof.
i like. it sort of gets everyone moving tgt and get high (:
it was 7plus tt the last team came back la.
went home with the 4e ppl.

Day 2
reached DHS hostel bright and early.
7.30am to be exact.
i sort of woke up late, took a taxi there, it cost me $8.35
realised there were lots of ppl late. -.-
and our grp was super small, cos got a lot of ppl didnt come.
[ anyway it was better for them not to come :) ]

made the flag which we carried ard.
attempted Intelli-match - ARRGHH we were so STUPID!
walked slowly to kallang river side park, where we had Survivor.

think most of the stations were quite fun.
we played against OG 7 cos of Su Leng + Valarie
though we lost in most of the stations, we had a lot of fun!
(it sort of didnt matter cos the pts were going to the house anyway)
and aft the 1st lousy check pt we managed to come up with grp cheers finally. (:

there was this checkpt where it's like the Taiwan variety show where they are tied with this rope and had to eat run and eat food!
and there was this station where we played blind catch
[ i was the blind mouse tricked by OG7 -.- ]

there was this station where the guys were tied up and we tried to catch pingpong balls in the strong wind.
it was total failure.
but there was this other station which was quite fun!
it was some kind of telematch where we had to complete several tasks in grps of 3.

1. finish one whole bar of choco - gd choice adeline! white choco was nice! wah but it was super hard to chew!!
2. had to blow this ballow and poke this satay stick thru without brusting it - haha i'm super pro at this (: lucky i didnt try to blow it though. i bet the choco will jus all fly inside!
3. carry 1 person for a dist - we chose to piggy back cos it was easier, i was piggy backed most of the times cos i'm light? haha. Keith + HongYi & Andrew + Joanne were super funny!
4. play fr
5. spit water at this can! - lucky only the last team would hav to do it~ Andrew VS Guppy + a few mouths from Keith. HAHA SUPER FUNNY! the water was milky from all the choco la!

it was a tie in the end (:

oh the next check pt was at the beach i think.
where PingYan & Royston were station masters
(Royston is our OGL lor! then went to be station master. MIA for so long)
the game was quite fun leh, surprisingly.
or maybe it was our class tt made it fun.
Andrew's random comments and Greek Mythology and General Knowledge
and the digging for bears. - the OGLs almost didnt find it!
haha. it was fun sitting at the breakwater anyway. (:

we learnt this fever+power cheer during lunch,
then went for dragon boating.

we danced quite a bit b4 the actual dragon boat.
at 1st grace & i volunteered to get seperated from our grp,
but in the end they put us back, haha.
our boat was super enthu lor, we changed the 1-2, 1-2 to SpongeBob SquarePants!
we changed our SpongeBob SquarePants to ZhongTong ShuaiGe & Ah-Neh ShutUp subcequently.
the instructor was super pleased with us lor, cos even though we're an all-girls boat
(RuiXian can be counted as girl la hor)
we were super synchronised! ^_^

aft tt we it was the bus ride back to sch in which we lost LiBing. oppz.
we were the 1st to use the toilet! cos we were the first to reach sch and suppose to bath.
SUPER SHIOK!
sat with Adeline on the benches outside foyer to wait for the rest.

queued super long for hong kong noodles. ARRGHH.
talked to Joshua (who shocked me with his super loud SIMIN) & Mervyn.
ate with the entire 5C12 ((:

JAM NIGHT!
super HIGH! we jus jump & jump and scream & scream with Venus's Apple (the Year 6 band)
who were super coool!
and the Mr & Miss Sexy Leg and Sexy Lips was WHOO!

aft tt we went to watch Wishing Stairs.
nicole played a trick on andrew by grabing his legs in the dark!
he totally freaked out la, didnt watch even a second of Wishing Stairs.
we were cut a few mintutes to the ending though. i hav to agree it's quite scary.

FRIGHT NIGHT!
super cool! it was like Guides' night games - so i bet Shermine suggested it ((:
there were 10 stations and we had to move around the sch with lightsticks and a pass to search for clues!
keith & i were the first pair and we took super long la.
cos we thought tt the clue was small we took a LONG time.
in the end it's jus super obvious. i felt so cheated.

cos we had to solve this password to crack into rachel's email account.
we solved it and they actually told us it was wrong! WTH. ARGGGHHH!
so we lagged by 1 station.
in the end we handed up the paper b4 the last pair could make it back.
so disappointed lor, we tried so hard.
but it was quite a fun experience i have to agree (:

watched DORM - a thai movie.
supposed to be horror but it's actually not scary!
i encourage u guys to watch it too
it has a nice plot abt this thai boy in a broading sch (:

LT1 was FREEZING.
luckliy we didnt watch in LT1.
even my t-shirt inside my bag was cold!
my BSP jacket sure came in handy..

had bee hoon for breakfast.
mass danced in the parade sq.
flag raising in orientation tee & stinky+wet shoes.
photo-taking + mass dance at grand stand.
wrote msg on each other's backs.
admin accouncements.
[ mrs chia -.- ]

DEAD tired.
pangseh the ppl walking to mrt to take 111.
met Ching, Cam & YaoLu.
slept all the way..

continued sleeping after bathing.
i seriously can sleep all the way till the next day if Ching didn't call me at 6pm.
yeah i was tt tired.
i was suppose to meet them for Pastamania @ 5.45pm. oppz.

197 took super long to reach there.
and i slept on the bus also lor.
the stupid jam make me take 1h instead of 1/2. HUMPH.

reached the correct place.
[didnt miss the stop. phew~ ]
called my 5C12 mates for directions.
Keith, LiBing & Nicole were so nice tt they came out looking for me lah!
THANKS LOTS! and thanks LiBing for the RED lightstick (:

had a really HIGH dancing session at ECP,
with all the 'sparkling juice' popping and everything,
not to mention the ANG GONG GONG cheer! WHOO!

after tt they announced the results for FRIGHTNIGHT.
although ours was quite last minute and incomplete, we were THAT close.
but wat made up for the disappointment was that
HOUSE B WON THE OVERALL CHAMPION!
haha, we're truely ANG GONG GONGs now ((:

as this year's orientation theme was 'Strength in Unity'
the SCs came up with this cheer where they would say 'Unity in Strength' and we were supposed to reply with 'Strength in Unity'
but there's this weirder one where they would say 'GO RED' & we're supposed to say 'GO BLUE'??
i dont see the link but luckily for us, other than this the rest of the cheers were great (:

i specially like the House B cheers,
where the seniors would go 'ANG GONG GONG AH ANG GONG GONG'
and we're supposed to reply in similar manner with all the violent hand swingings
HAHA yeah they were violent but i think it totally brought out the House B firey RED spirit !!
yeah we rock! ((:

and i mean it,
we totally ROCKED THE SCHOOL la.
with our super violent ANG GONG GONG cheer & us screaming at the top of our voices.
and 5C12 rocks too!

OMG, OG7 is 强 la, they won like a lot of the games.
cos they announced the results for each game.
neverthe less, we were not bad also lor.
at least we got 2nd runner up in Survivor - haha it was rather superprising cos we kept losing cos we were playing against OG7, in which they got 1st.
anyway, this shows that our class tgt is 强 de lor!
we studies not gd but gd at this type of things. haha.


conclusion is, i look forward to a fun-filled senior high year!
i'm SUPER GLAD tt i'm in 5C12 and House B!
i bet we'll have lots of fun tgt~

love u guys lots! ^_^
