.: Victoria Junior College Orientation 2008 :.

Just got back from swimming. Went pool party with some Secondary school classmates just now. Super tired now and great catching up and feeling the warmth of a class so previously close to me! (pictures upload next time! :D)

Finally do i have time to actually update on my orientation! It has been a busy week ever since the start of the new year and the start of my school term in the new school - Victoria JC. It has been fun, laughter, happiness and just total excitement everyday in school!

No doubt, the feeling of trepidation did come to me on Wednesday morning while I was on my way to school. I even tried to leave my house later than I had wanted to just because I'm rather afraid of what awaits me and the people I'm going to meet. Being the only one going to the scadefinitely one scary thing that I have to do. The first few moments in the college was pure awkwardness and total uneasiness. The registration part took some time and after which, met some new people whom I made friends with whilst changing. haha. weird but at least, they were my first few new friends of VJ.

First day of orientation started off with alot of talking and briefing on the various subjects and the various combinations etc. of JC. It was early in the morning and we were all in the very stuffy PT. It really made me feel like sleeping. Headed on to the hall and I went to find my group.

I was in the group, IGOR and subgroup IDEN! MAN, WE ROCK! Saw my other group mates and OGL. They are of course the people who made my first few days in VJ so fun and enjoyable! Fiona, Xiaoxian, Huimin, Poryee (who so happens to be my primary school friend and we worked alot together! so,it's great to meet up again!), gordan, gabriel, si han, louis, francis, wen qian, lijun, cheryl, charlene, sabrine, soomi, liangbin!

Orientation was full of games, cheers, skits, mass dances! Games were all super fresh and fun to me! The gams planned out all require us to step outside our comfort zone and it's not anything one would think of in Secondary SchooL! One distict game was the shampoo game in the wet games day (and seriously, we're all wet that day!) The group has to collect as much foam from shampooing fellow group members hair and compare with opponent group!it was FUN FUN FUN!

In VJ, cheers are inevitably one of the most important and famous thing going on in the college! Hence, we learnt alot of cheers - igor cheer, vj cheer and all of them were so catchy. Though difficult to remember some, but shouting till our voices were sore, shouting at the top of our lungs was FUN! Mass dances were learnt too! haha. The best dances and hardest and longest dances I have ever attempted to learn! It took us three days to learn all the dances and it was really great fun dancing together and laughing at mistakes we make while dancing!

To show them off, we headed to suntec yesterday (sat) and we did our mass dance there in public with all the cheers around the Fountain of Wealth! It was HIGH TIME! It was raining but it didn't dampen and Victorians spirit! the cheers just grew louder and louder and the spirit was lifted tremendously! Dancing in the rain... finally i got a chance to do that! haha! It was really fun and definitely a great time I had there!

OG OUTINGS rocked too! that was really our IDEN group bonding time! the times spent with IDEN were great! every day after orientation at 530pm, we will all go out and have dinner together and just chat and laugh and play games! it was so fun! laghed so much all the time because of entertainer poryee and all the other jokes and actions from the other group members! Defintely will miss the times with IDEN!

Tomorrow, SEA REGETTA! Can't wait because it's like palying at ECP and mass dancing in the sea! after that, going out with IDEN again to get our IDEN shirt! Hence, as fiona says, plenty of rest now! (must follow her 1/4 golden rule)
