Happenings during orientation
Well, like what I have said earlier on in my previous post, my name was not found in the name lists... Thus, the seniors were like asking me to go into tat room there to join a group. I later then found out tat this group of people are actually people who also can't find their names in the name list. The senior which guides our group is Ting Yu, a very nice, friendly, lively and outgoing girl. She told us that we were the lostsheep which couldn't find our class. So this would just be the temporary group --- Group 29, HYDRIA was our group name.
We were given a black orientation T-shirt and we have to put them on... Ting Yu was saying tat we were lucky to get this pattern because what she get during their past orientation was worse than this and she even said tat her past orientation T-shirt was ugly! What I get was a XL-size T-shirt and there was none available for exchange... so... I just wear it... After hearing the welcome message and all, we proceeded to the atrium there to form a group circle. We were supposed to think of a cheer for our group...
At first, all of us were like so quiet because we dunno each other yet. It was this girl, named Joy who started the "noise" first... I mean as in leading us to begin to talk to each other. She first came up with some cheer ideas and the rest of us were like discussing which cheer to use, what words to add on and what actions shall we use.
Then we proceeded on in playing the games all that... We first play the birthday game, which we were supposed to arrange ourselves from the youngest at the front to the oldest at the back... I then found out that most of us were born in 1990 and only a few were born in 1991. Then, Joy was so cute to walked to the back herself, saying that "I am older than all of you..." Lol... Hmmm... we were not supposed to say out our date of our birthday... Be it the day, month and year all cannot say out. We were suppose to use actions only. Then there was an indian girl using hand to make sign to tell me that hers is on 19th August, thus, she was behind me... Then its time to check out answers, the game master asked we all to say out our date of birth... So far its still correct until the indian girl behind me which says... 19th August... 1983... we all were like so shocked, she never use sign to say properly... but nvm about it, it's just a game... haha... other ppl was like so cute, giving a shocking expression... Well, Joy you are not the oldest anyway, got people born in 1983, elder than you... I later found out tat Mushi is actually born in 1981... but she doesn't look older than us at all. She looks just the same age as us... Joy also doesn't look older than us because maybe she was smaller in size.
I enjoyed some of the games very much... especially the TUG-OF WAR!!! Our side won... played 2 times also won 2 times... must be our side stronger ba... I could roughly remember who were the people who were on the same side as me... They were Xinyi, Joy, me, Samantha, Luanne, Zhishan... the other 2 i forgot their names... lol...
Next, we play the amazing race. It's kinda of tired to play the amazing race... can die... really can die... run here, run there, run everywhere around NYP, all over the place... I sweated a lot... and felt very tired...
Then the game ended and we returned back to the auditorium? But too bad, Joy have something on and she have to left earlier... It was time to announce the winner groups which can proceed on to the finals for the cheerleading.
The 3 groups which can enter the finals are group 29, 19 and the Dental group... Of course we were all very happy to hear that our group can proceed on to the finals. We then run to the front of the stage to perform our HYDRIA cheer... and followed by the other 2 groups...
In the end... we won 2nd for our cheerleading =) A hamper full of snacks were distributed among us. Oh ya, and of course I want to thank Ting Yu, a very good senior which was able to lead us very well, especially the cheer and so on... and I was happy to know the ones which I get to talk to like Xinyi, Joy, Luanne and so on during the orientation... =p but we are gonna separate on monday~ when we get to know our actual class... too bad... Well... I guess that's all for today.
