NBS FOC (Nanyang Biz Sch Freshmen Orientation Camp) HAS BEEN GR8! The best camp i've ever been to so far. =))



Games were pretty novel, & the itinerary was planned meticulously. Well, the most interesting parts were the various funny forfeits in between games. hahas. The seniors at NBS FOC 2007 were veritably advocates for SDU (SDU - Social Development Unit was one of the sponsors for the camp)... All our forfeits/ games involved certain level of intimacy & cross-gender interactions! LOL.


Only managed to chalk up a few hours of sleep over the 5 days at camp (16-20 July). It's an amazement how all of us managed to do it; sleeping only lyk, 2 hrs at most EVERYDAY. gosh.



Here's a breakup/ summary of stuffs we did:



Mon, 16/7/07: Learnt cheers from our seniors primarily. It was cheers, cheers, & more cheers. Had a bit of culture shock, as most of the cheers were in crude hokkien. Like, "li chap doh loh eh!" (where do u "belong"), etc etc. haa. Budden was alryte la. Cos i understood Hokkien. =)) Was the Cheers-IC for the first day of camp, & being such a dedicated lady, I lost my voice by the start of the 2nd day. muahahas. We had wet/dirty games, including making our butts dirty with eggs & SOYA SAUCE (for the field games), & having to walk through the canals with only 2 candles AT NIGHT. Total darkness accompanied us & it was hot, stuffy. Gosh. Haa. Well, but we emerged stronger persons. Such activities do bond the group together. haa. Was also blindfolded in a few games. Aha!












Tue, 17/7/07: Arrived at Sentosa (unbathed still, cos had no time to bathe). Caught a little sleep on the coach though. Finally had time to bathe upon settling down. Because it was only a few of us who hadn't bathed, the rest got to catch more sleep, while these few of us dragged our tired bodies to the chalet to bathe. in the end, all the sleep we got was that 1 hr plus on that coach. Started the day without my voice (well, still had a bit of my voice left la. but was super hoarse. haa). played lotsa beach games & of course, photo formations here n there (it's where all the pp in our group, all 34 of us, pile on top of one another!!!)


LIKE THESE!!!








Further played more games, random shots included herein...








MY TEETH IS STRONG!!! =)))



Wed, 18/7/07: Think we arrived at the Changi Holiday Bungalow Chalet... Had Fright Night. Goodness! The Fright night was the best ever that i've been too, seriously! The effort that all the seniors put in were evident, lock stock & barrel la! Gosh. Their make up was very real, as thought they were really ghosts. Oh man! Very fun. Inside the "ghost" house, Sadako grabbed my calves, i had to snatch a baby doll from one of the "ghosts", comb the hairs of one of the "ghosts" & was locked up in the damp toilet with yet another one of them...Haha~ Really very impresive. Especially all the logistics & planning. Thumbs-up to NBS seniors! =))) To end off the night, i think we had beancurd for supper. And also Nasi Lemak plus longan dessert (compliments of the seniors who paid for all these from their own pockets!). Yummy! If i dun rmb wrongly, we were all asleep soundly when one of the beds collapsed, injuring Sabrina, who was slepping beside me on the ground. Poor her! ouch. Bt anyways, after some fixing, all was fine lar =))




Thur, 19/7/07: Moved to NSRCC (National Service Resort & Country Club)... Lovely place!! But abit inaccessible though. Then, it was all food-galore at Geylang district!!! Had Wonton Mee, lovely Char-Siew Paus, Tim Sum, Frog Congee, delicious duck meat, nice herbal GuiLingGao, etc etc etc. Before setting off, the seniors made us up. All the nonsensical plus hilarious plus ugly hair-dos! God. I had a pig's nose on my head, plus 2 plaits. haa. As below:


(oh ya, notice carefully that my left hand is not where it appears to be. i mean, those hands scratching away in the background are not mine!! I was holding on to the spirals made of aluminium foil! Amazing angle of photography huh? haa.) For the food game, i kissed a frog!!!




Thur night was SP Night, also known as Special Partner Night. It was like Blind Dating, where parnters were paired up to go on a blind date. LOL. The guys had to undergo tremendous pressures, stress & many forfeits/ performances to humour the seniors in order for them to bring us ladies out. Haha. My SP was Chao Zhang from SAJC. Haa. He brought me out to Billy Bombers at Central, before going over to Velvet Dragon. Yummy! I had their version of fish & chips. Was so glad that we finally managed to get good food after days & meals of horrendous food. hahas. Hehs. anw, pic with my SP as below, taken outside Velvet Dragon. Oh man! He couldn't pick me out from the crowd of ladies in my OG (so he had to do many forfetis. haa!) !!! LOL. Faint.
Oh yes! We ended off Thur with the acitivity I had been looking forward to... Clubbing! Clubbed the night away at Velvet Dragon. Wonderful!!! Didn't know it was sucha nice place. Cos previously went Momo, but the impression it gave me was bad. All smoky n stuffs. But this time, the then-Momo, now-Velvet Dragon is new & cool! Nice place. hahas. will prolly chill out there more. Shift away from Phuture every now n then. haahs. Cannot always stick to Phuture =)) This pic was taken in the ladies of Velvet Dragon (guys, u didn't know it was sucha nice place inside, did u? haa)


Jerica With Casancia (Nice name!)



Michelle & Jerica (I bet she was drunk! haha!)




Fri, 20/7/07: Last day of camp! The very thought of being able to sleep properly & comfortably at home kept me alive.. Muahahas. Played a few more games, before we concluded the camp with Prize Presentation Ceremony. Muahahas. Jerica was BEST FRESHIE for my OG!!! =))) Competition was pretty intense though. I won only by one vote. Oops. Thanks to all my peeps/ miragis who voted for me!!! =) was really nice having fu wif u pp! muahahs. all those nonsensical jokes i made. Sorry that I made all of u go through them!


Took pictures with my seniors. Kelley, Yong Xiang. YX actually posed as a freshie on the first day la! god. And we actually believed him ok. hahas! Kelley's a lovely & bubbly gurl. Thought she was adorable! LOL.

Jerica with the TALL GURLS IN MY OG (they were all lyk, 1.7m?!?!?! OMG)

Oh yay!!! =) Mavis, Raisa, Michelle & Jerica =))

Jeremy, ChoonMing, Casancia, Jerica =))

Jerica lost her voice as a result of all the cheering, plus lotsa sleep lost; but what's all that compared to the many frenships I forged? =)) These frenships, To last me a lifetime I hope... =PPP


NBS FOC Rocks! And continue to ROCK ON!
