Orientation Power! Part 2!

For day 1 and 2, please scroll down! Haha.

Day 3

It started off on an ok note. Still a bit paiseh... But we started talking about what we wanted to go as on O' nite. Thought about cowboys, but somehow it ended up different on the day itself. But I think what we settled with was better! Haha.

Went to my class room... Saw Samuel and Shane Ai there! Not bad. Made some new friends, Kevin and Leonard. Lots of people I don't know in my class... I guess I'll get to know them better soon... The form teacher's real interesting. Actually she was so normal that she wasn't that interesting. Haha.

Well, went to the parade square, then MPH for the rest of the people in the school to learn the College Anthem and the cheers. I like the Batch Song! Although soon after learning it someone coped my booklet so now I don't have the lyrics... Dream and dare, fight on don't despair, cos I'll be there! =) Thats all I remember, but I like it! Haha.

The batch dance was pretty easy (After CCIS of course), but I had to erase the previous three dances from my memory. Haha. Oops. Couldn't fully remember the third part of the batch dance, will try to learn from my OGLs. Wanna learn the sun dance! It looks so fun.

We went to MacRitchie after that, and I'm glad Azhar brought us there before by foot. Otherwise I would have been real lost. We went there and... CHEESEBUNS! Haha. Well it rained and we went to KFC at J8 for lunch. Saw the Bishan Paedophile. FYI, its a guy who keeps looking at RI boys for some weird reason I don't know. He keeps smiling this weird smile that freaks everyone out.

Went for the O'Nite programme auditions with a comprehensive programme that was put together only 30 mins before... Seriously our skit was good, but they chose a dance instead. Hai... What can we do. But it was a high for all of us!

Well, the day was kinda normal, got to know everyone else in my OG! Yay.

Day 4

The day started off with war games, messy though it was, it was fun. Wah! All the other houses gangbang Morrison Richardson! So evil. But real champions take things in their stride! Right MR people? Haha. I sound like a house leader already. Haha. But the first game was the muddy one. And I'm proud to say, although I paired up with Ann to attack, I didn't dirty my shirt! Haha.

The next two games weren't as fun, but we played along just the same...

Soon it was time to go out! Super high, cos we were going for pool after a splendid pastamania lunch. But RI pool players are seriously very very skilled. I got beaten by Daniel and Narpal 2-0 in the 4 games I played. It was fun while it lasted. I realised that my thinking speed is too fast... will try to slow down...

Soon it was O'nite. And instead of cowboys... We decided to go as.... GEEKS! The theme is greeks so... What difference does a letter r make? Haha. So we pulled up our pants, buttoned our collar buttons, shortened our bag straps, and stuck scotchtape on our specs. And wrote some 'kick me' notes and pasted them on our backs. It was seriously real hilarious.

Seeing the Z'Kardia sign light up on flames was really awesome and cool, and I guess that was the highlight for me.

After that we went to HH's Z'Cove to write notes for each other and recieve parting gifts. Then we went to Longhouse for supper + dinner and it was an awesome end to an awesome orientation programme!

Super high! Haha. Hope you enjoyed the posts on orientation, if you wanna know more you can tag! Yup! See ya guys.

Genus 2005

Genus Concert went just fine... NUS Guitar Ensemble is really proded! I want to be like that! Lets see... The guitars I want to master are Acoustic, Bass and Classical! Yeah. Actually this year's Genus concert was a bit interesting. They played a Japanese song and some jazz, but most pieces were classical. The Alto runs were really fast. I could tell that the Guitaron player was good too... Saw Josh there! He was there with his HCJCGE Friends. He was sitting in the row in front of mine. Slept on the bus today and missed the loop. Haha. Well. Had to alight, cross the street and take the bus again. And theres this ulcer right in the middle of my middle lip. It hurts whenever I eat something. But I need my food... Ow. I think the heatiness I get from sleeping less hours caused the ulcer. Looking forward to I-Learning. Can sleep more. Haha. Champions League was crazy. I woke up and went to school to hear the results. ManU Lost 2-0 on aggregate to Ac Milan. Barcelona lost to Chelsea 4-5...

Of God and Demons

Now that'd I've put my last phase of life past me and have some more time to reflect cos I'm C+ for the second time, I feel that it's the correct time to do a bit more reflection about my past, especially the last couple of years. I've always thought that one of the counseling exercises practiced would be helpful for me to process what I've been going through - that is to personify my negative emotions. In a sense to experience that final bit of release from these emotions that have threatened me for a long time. To talk about the inner demons that I've been facing.  Wrath. The fiercest of them all, yet gentlemanly in some ways, calculative in others. People usually imagine wrath to be brawny, in your face and belligerent. But my Wrath is more sinister, sly even. Plotting the downfall of my enemies and using the knowledge that I have to exact vengeance. Over the months I have exerted control of him by reminding myself that only God has the right to judge. De...

Ride On

Recently things have been going really well. I've had a leadership position in my workplace for almost one year now and it is quite amazing how God has guided throughout the way. Despite this I feel that I have achieved the balance between my work, personal life and I'm in some sort of a flow that makes me satisfied about how things are going. I'm about to transition to another stage of it, and it feels that along the way God has prepared me each and every step. There's a lot to give thanks for.  Things are really cruising along. I've always liked a good, smooth drive and life feels that way at the moment. Its been a long time along a bumpy road but finally things feel right.  Praise be to God who calms the raging seas. Praise be to God who can be counted on for the hardest difficulties in life.  Not sure when the next post be, but I think if things carry on the way they are, more good posts are to come.
