ookay... so the orientation for my university at buffalo thing is over... 2 days! thank goodness audrey was with me, jami accompanied us there the first day. had butterflies in my stomach. haha... too bad aud wasn't in the same orientation group as me... sniff
on the first day which was 4th may, we had a talk by the student care services. they're the ones who will be looking after our welfare and stuff while we are full time students in Singapore Institute of Management (SIM). games was next, and guess what? we went over to sentosa!! -.-
my group was well.. pretty pathetic haha. there were four girls, kolila (22 years old, she's from shs by the way, netball haha), amy (18 years old, she smokes), christine (18 years old, catholic jc) and me (louie from shs) haha... amy had a swollen ankle and is allergic to grass, thus she went home and did not go along with us to sentosa. for the boys, my, nearly every single one of them had completed their national service already! some even had their driving license. okay, so i'm a little slow, but it did come to a shock to me that everyone was well, older than me! i expected around 5 to come straight from their "o" levels. but thank goodness, at LEAST there's one juy, julius (maris stellar), he's 16 too! haha woot!
well anyway, in the end, my group 4 mates narrowed down to only a few people by the time we reached sentosa. there were kokila, christine, juius, jie long (ah long or JL), jonathan (jonnie), lloyd (cool name eh), and of course myself!! sheesh, one of the smallest groups!
we played spider web, captain's ball, some soccer thing (violent game!! julius agreed with me, we played side by side, haha okay so he played, i basically avoided the ball. it was painful and sand was flying into my eyes haha), some running game, built a sandcastle (the name of our sandcastle was "out of nothing" haha! good one lloyd! haha! you should have seen our sandcastle! it was well, just a mountain of sand! haha!!) there was a really dirty and wet game called mine field (you can probably guess what happens, when you step on a mine, water and flour is poured over your head) but my group members (especially the girls) did not want to play that. sigh... they seem well, a little funless but then again, it was pretty hot out there. =)
so later, kokila left first. next was lloyd and julius. jie long, jonnie, chris and me stayed behind. we decided to be guai and at least give our group a little dignity, that we're still alive in sentosa. however, well, our pride gave way and we humbly left for home. i was so tired!! i was rpactically sleepwalking. we boarded the sentosa bus and headed for harbour front. chris took a bus home from there, while jonnie, jie long and i took the train. jonnie was going to a friend's house so he stopped off at dhoby ghout, too bad otherwise he would usually stop at clementi, he could have accompanied me home!! grrr... haha... jie long's in pasir ris! poor guy, so far! so well, we stopped at outram and met a cute lady who asked for directions to bugis. she followed jie long home, and i went in the opposite direction. -.- i fall asleep and woke up in boon lay... i should have listened to jie long! he told me not to fall asleep and miss my stop! well jonnie and jie long laugehd at me the next day when they heard i missed my stop.. -.-
2nd day of orientation was worse. i kept nodding off... sheesh... the resident director was well, he had a very nice voice, lullaby voice. haha nothing much really... it was just talks and talks and talks...............
and that concludes my exciting orientation
