these past few days have been exhausting- i had orientation the past two days and two parties to attend- and i just went for a four hour maths tuition today, so its safe to say that i can drop dead from exhaustion any moment.

reached vj pretty early, and orientation started at 9. we were introduced to our PSLs and we played class games like blow wind blow and got to know each other. there was one particular game we played, which was really funny. the class was split into two groups and each group has to send a representative to sit on each side of a curtain. when the curtain is brought down, the first one to say the opposite person's name wins, and the loser will go over to the winner's side. so the side with the least people loses. it was really funny because whenever the curtain comes down, there's silence because no one can remember each other's names! when i was sent up, the opposite person was moses so when i saw him i was like MOSES! he was a few seconds slower than me nya nya- siling was laughing herself silly at the back LOL.
we had some games involving stations and the first class who finishes will get the largest flag and so on. sadly, our class was last, and we got the smallest flag. and guess what? it was about 1.5 cm long HAHA- our class psl, rachel, was like: no worries! we got the smallest, cutest and SEXIEST flag- she even wanted to make up a cheer about our small, cute and sexy flag lol-
we had lunch and went for a talk with mr boyd in the lecture theatre. he was briefing us on the VIP programmeand it was quite long- we had another game after that, which was to build an aeroplane out of materials which we can "purchase" from PSLs. we had to do forfeits like singing "its raining men" with actions, run around an area shouting " we are monkeys", stick our hands into the coy pond for thirty seconds. the boys did more forfeits than us LOL two of them had to take off their shoes, hold hands and skip on a wet muddy patch of grass. it was damn funny and gay and the photographer was having a great time taking pictures of them. my group was quite sad because we kept heaping balloons onto the "aeroplane's" body and in the end we had the biggest aircraft and guess what? our balloons all popped and it didnt move at all. it was super funny but we had a great time building it la.
after that we had debrief and i went to edlyn's house for the farewell party for minli and selene. i was super tired and i didnt stay long for it- i went back before they cut the cake and gave their speeches.

second day of IPO! we had class games again before we had station games. the station games were alright- we were split up into groups again for them. for lunch, we were give one and a half hours for it and were allowed to go anywhere. we were supposed to go in our orientation groups too. our class decided to go together and we went to parkway's pastamania, but the queue was super long, and we were running short on time, so my OG went down to burger king for lunch. in the end, we reached vj earlier than the rest of the class! lol
we had wet games after that and it was much more fun than station games. but poor me! my first station was tug-of-war and i got rope burns, really bad ones because i was pulled along with the rope and it slipped through my fingers, and brilliant me stubbornly hung one and thus, i got 10 blisters on my hands. brilliant huh- but its damn pain can, my hands were like on fire for the rest of the day and i can see the blisters swelling and appearing.
we went to change and collect our books after the games and whoa, the books are damn haeavy man! i ordered almost everything and i could hardly lift the whole stack of books la. by the time i struggled down to my dad's car, my hands were going to give way already. siling, shuyi and amanda were even worse la- they ordered all! so in the end siling just dragged the bag of books all the way LOL
daddy fetched me, yijun and yingsi to cuiting's house for the party- it was kind of a flop- like less than half the classturned up and there wasnt enough food. so me jiahui, yi'an and fiona walked down to downtown east for dinner. but it was good catching up with the few people who were there- i left at about 9 plus because i was really really exhausted and when i reached home, i just went to sleep after my bath.
well, IPO is over! it was a lot better than i expected it to be- honestly. i expected it to be really akward and stuff but thankfully, it was quite easy to fit into the class and the psls were great in like charging the class up- next week's jc orientation is going to be much more fun i bet!
