okaaaaaay, update on my overnight at TP first alright.
headed to school at 5pm. assembled at LT 7 as usual.
did some briefing and whatnots.
gave out the Applied Science pirate-themed black tee.
were told to change and yadiyadiya.
then we were brought to the TCC-Temasek Convention Centre and did some cheering. stayed there for quite some time. around 6plus till it got dark. then we were brought down to the campfire site. played a few games, cheered like craaaaazy. then we had buffet dinner by the campfire. ((: food was superb. at least better than any other camp food. yumyum.
after dinner, we got back into our ships a.k.a "clans" and did more cheering and played games. then we all did the TP Mass Dance surrounding the campfire. it was tres hilarious and fun! then we did the chicky dance. it was MADNESS luh this one. everyone just grabbed each other's shoulders and ran like mad forwards and backwards. i felt like my arm was breaking. =.=
the best part, once when we ran backwards holding on to each other, Lin, Nadiah, Muna and myself fell flat on the ground! we thought the whole of our row fell too but no! it was only FOUR of us! so paiseh can! LMAO. nice one luh. yup, then we just go crazy around the campfire. we were all so shagged after the running but the OLs made us do the TP MD and the chicky dance once again. super crazy.
-
after the campfire, we heaed back to the TCC for a briefing on GOLD RUSH - another game we'd be playing. we slacked around the TCC for a long while, enjoying the aircon most of the time. it was around 11+pm i think, when one of the lecturers briefed us on Gold Rush. the point of the game is to search for 5 stations throughout the campus and complete the games at each station so that we can collect the gold coins.
-
am not gonna go into details about the stations but my fav was the pingpong in flour one. we were supposed to blow the pingpongs out of the container full of flour. my group violated the rules alot but we didn't care. haha. we ended up finishing first. and we "helped" the station master to arrange the pingpongs back; so we buried the balls. so deep that we can't even tell there are pingpongs in there. hahaha.
that station was nice, we laughed a hell lot.
managed to get all 5 gold coins and then we headed to front of the library for a snack.
they gave us chocolates!
-
it was around 4+am then, when a surprise came.
the OLs came to our table and they were holding the small plastic bag full of brown stuff. IT DOESN'T LOOK GOOD. then when they poured the contents of the bag on a plate, IT WAS FULL OF LIVE MEALWORMS mixed with brown rice. all squirming and wriggling around! gross! they dared us to seperate the mealworms from the rice and it was super scary i tell ya! i saw the guys did it and it didn't look so bad. so i picked up the BIG worm and put it in another plate. HURRAH! i did it man! hiakhiakhiak!
then i took another 3 small worms and then done, i wouldn't want to touch it again.
hahaha.
-
after that hoohaa, we headed back to the TCC where we slacked among our classmates. the OLs didn't arrange anything so we played among ourselves and just chatted and stuff. then when the sun was about the rise, probably 7am in the morn, we were brought back to the LT where we usually assemble. they gave us time for a short power nap before the debriefing at 830am. i slept, i dreamt, i woke up half-dead. then we had breakfast. puffs and a hot cup of milo gave me a little energy. they debriefed us and we were let off at 915am - 45min early.
-
came home at around 12. napped at 2pm and i snooozed till 6pm.
veryvery tired.

the last day of orientation was yesterday.
first half of day was great but the next half for me was just terrible.
TPSU gave all freshmen tees. Applied Science tee was green. not any green but LIME GREEN. bright bright pretty green. hehe. then we all got changed. we had talks at the TCC and the OLs did a skit for us.
blahblahblah.
my whole class was selected for the Amoeba telematch game to represent AS school cos we won during the inter-class games on the first day of orientation. so yup. all the freshmen from all schools assembled at the stadium.
fast forward.
telematch competitions started off with the Sarong Party a.k.a Amoeba game. which meant we went first. Engineering got first place while AS got second. wewtz! if the guys at the back didn't trip, we were sure to get first place lor! ENG and AS was like, 1mm close. serious sey!
=____="
then the skiing game - AS first.
then the moonball challenge - AS first.
then the krazy katerpillar game - AS first.
ain't sure about save the bomb one though.
haha, we rock.
after the game, i started feeling unwell.
headache man. the loud cheering didn't help though. actually i already started feeling feverish during the competition briefing. maybe when i was playing the game that it got worse. the sun was freaking hot whaat. sheez.
-
after the telematches, we headed to Bedok Reservoir for the TP Regatta.
dragonboating challenge. ok i am clueless on who won what because when they all stand, i just sat. my headache was killing me and i already had a fever then. so i sat all the way. when i felt a little ok then i stood once in a while. yeah, what a waste, i could've been screaming like a maniac but i sat down sick and miserable instead. :(
oh well.
AS won best team cheer,
"hey AS, hey AS..
hey AS...we are the best.
eh wah AS, A! S! eh wah AS.
eh wah AS OI! simply the best."
(dikir barat style)
AS won Telematch Champion.
duh~ scroll up to see the results.
after a painful (for me) long while, we headed back to the campus and i was really in a grouchy state. i couldn't wait to go home. it was 630pm when we got back to campus. i tried to stay cheerful for my friends but i am aware of my fake smile plastered on my steamed face. gosh. when we FINALLY got to the LT, they gave out our matric cards and timetable.
-
it was 830pm when it all ended.
mum and dad fetched me, thank God!
by the time i'm home, i had a bad fever and splitting headache.
dad gave me panadol extras and i snoozed to lala land.
-
woke up this morn feeling better except for my throat.
i can't even talk. :(
pain pain pain.
-
roaarr.
okay, been a lengthy entry.
sorry can't be bothered to make it fun-sounding lah.
too sick.
but i swear this is the best orientation i've ever been to.
i clicked with friends fast, food was extremely good, OLs was fantastic, schedule for everything was perfectly planned out, sufficient time for eating and everything was great. i didn't feel bored (except for the waiting) at all!
my best orientation ever.
loads of thanks to the the AS studies club. muuu-aaaahs!
you guys are great. ((:
