Orientation day 1
Wednesday, April 2, 2008 / 9:22 PM

Today was the first day of my RP orientation. It was pretty fun. Today was set up so that we would meet our classmates of this semester and go through a sorta mock day. Like what a normal poly day would be like.

I totally adore my group!We are such a lively bunch! There's a total of five of us. Me [like duh!], Joey [yes another one, she's the first person I met], Vivian [she seem quite but likes to talk during group/class duscussion and is super funny], Naz [very quite but after a while she opens up] and last but not least the only male member of our group, Robert [funny, funny guy who loves makingfun of the fact that my spelling sucks big time!].

Yup, thats us. Today we were given a problem and had to come up with a PP presentation that showed our POV. Ours was by far the best, 'cos unlike the others we had color, pics and we could answer any questions shot at us. There was this other group that was pretty good too.

Omg,this was funny. Our topic was education la, if all the subjects are equally important and all that. So this guy, Melvin if I'm not wrong, says "If you have a goal life is good. If you don'tmight as well not live. Better to die if got no goal" and on and on and on he goes about how we are all better off dead if we don't have a life goal.

Then this other group comes right out and says that if we want to succed in life we shouldn't get married! Like...Okay...one group promoting suicide, one promoting the single life and the last groups says if you want to be sucessful money wise go find a rich husband to marry.

And we say, There is no good nor evil. There is only power and luke I AMYOUR FATHER...hahahahahaha...the last part wasn't but we did say the power thing and some crap about lemon and making lemonade. All in all was really fun!

Oh and during one of the breaks everywhere I turned someone from MSS popped up! This guy, and I seriously CANNOT remember his name!!, suddenly appears in front of me and goes "Eh! It's you! You recognize me??!!" and I'm like, "Err...no," and then he turns to his friend and starts talking in chinese to his friend about a play and I hear fimilair names and it clicks that he's from MSS but I still cannot for the life of me remember who teh heck he is and what's his name and if I've ever talked to him before!!!

Then after our mock day I went to collect my Ez link/RP ID card from the office with Robert. We were in that line for ages man!! Super long! Almost lost our places when I read the signs wrongly and went into the wrong queue. Thankfully I was saved! my card is so so SO much better the my sec school one. It even has the school name on it and the pic isn'thalf bad. Couldn have been better but I'll survive.

God, the trip from here to Woodlands is really tiring man. After a good 5 months of sleeping in I'm so not used to waking up at 630! I actually slept on the train on my way home which is something I've never done! One minute I'm at Ang Mo Kio the next the train is just leaving Orchard. I need to readjust my sleeping patterns.

Oh and the laptop is no joke man. It may the be lightest out all that were on sale but its still pretty heavy!My shoulders arekilling me 'cos no matter how many times I alternated carrying the bag on each side it still hurts lik hell. At least I don't need it tomorrow!

And I am oh so very thankful Ididn't see him at all today. I swear I thought my mom would make me go with him 'cos it so freakin conveintent. Shudders. I can barely have a 2 minute conversation with him [something that has never occured before until about 3 weeks ago] without feeling uncomfortable and having the urge to run.

Crap,I feel amigrain coming on and I'm tired so think I'll retire earlyfor tonight!

Cheers!
