orientation '05

today marked the end of the Volleywood 2005 ie.Victoria Junior College Orientation'05!

we started off as groups who have never seen one another within and across groups. there were intense competition from Vader, Indigoo, Corsair, Trojan, Orion, Rodeo, Ingole, Arrana. and together they were the Orientation Groups- OG! woohoo!! but today, after many ups and downs throughout the 5 day orientation, we bonded real well with one another. and knowing the same school song and school cheers just further unites us.

it has been tiring these 5 days, with all the games; the mass dances; the outdoor games; the cheers; the running and the walking; the roleplays; the songs; the sea regatta, it is little wonder that we would be tired each day! having OG dinner for already 2 nights, i went out with my OG for lunch after the Sea Regatta. had lunch at pizza hut lahx. ha! so fun.

but more importantly, today was the final day, as i have mentioned above. the times i spent at the Sea Regatta were the most memorable to me. we had all the games at East Coast Beach. having the games such as sand burial, captain's ball with not 2 but 4 groups, tug-of-war, and phototaking... all these were tiring enough! but i must say one thing: for those who know Zhi Yong. i was playing captain's ball with his group along with 2 other groups. he caught the ball, and fell, breaking his arm into 2 pieces. it was horrendous. no blood, no screams, but it was horrible alright. real horrible. just to see the hand in that postition was horrible enough. my goodness. so to all those who know him, please PRAY for him! thnx!

after all the games right, we did the mass dance also lahx! all the Mass Dances- la bamba, friendship dance, whiney-whiney, i want you, neutron and tribal dance [ which we have not really learnt it yet; we mearely followed wat the OGLs were doing ]. super fun! then we got to dunk a lot of people also lahx. haha. all so fun. dunked shereen, ben, wang di, and many others into the sea. i, on the other hand, was dunked first courtesy of gerald. it was really really fun lahx! haha.

this orientation has really really been fun so KUDOS to the CT council, the Students' Council, the teachers, the OGLs, and all those who made it a huge success. it has really really been memorable, and i'm sure we, TROJAN can one day go out together as an OG again. all the 70-80 of us!

SONG BO?
