man this is going to be a long post...
so lets pray is short...
or lets sing-a-long song thats not too long....
hmm...
how should i start?
oh ya forgot to say today was the first day of my nyp orientation....
i wake up early in the morning...
6.15...
woke my mum up instead of the other way round lol...
go to mrt...
waited for zakaria and hafriz..
they came late...
we met 7.05
they came 7.15...
and i came 6.50...
and i sitted there very long..
and i saw 2 mrt personnel looking at me...
i looked suspicious XD
hmm....
had a stomachache when they came...
bore wid it..
all the way till yio chu kang...
thats where we stop...
oo a long ride..
stood most of the time...
den we entered nyp..
at start i thought it was a giant shopping mall...
cos theres escalators...
shopping mall looking tiles..
and many things that look like a mall..
and its huge..
nyp is actually smaller in space than np...
but the buildings are taller and bigger....
so yea...
eh..
there was a big crowd at the atrium when we went up the stairs[or escalators?i forgot]
so we waited with the crowd..
was still having my tummyache=x
den about
20 minutes! later, a bunch of orange shirt ppl started organising the different courses...
den we get into rows..,.
and waited another 15mins..
15mins is short..
but when u stand there and wait its like years...zzz...
when i registered and went for my group i suddenly forgot about my tummyache=P
i got a different group from zakaria...
hes group 4...im group 1
so yea...
ice breaking den begins....
our group consists of 16ppl...
so its one class..
most look geekish, decent...
2 looked like ah bengs...but they are not la..
one of the ahbeng loves pink...
bright ones..those liqi type of pink LOL
he wore a pink shirt, had a pink lanyard attached with a pink girly teddy bear..
the only thing tats not pink is his pants and shoes..his name is SKY
but his not an ahbeng,
hes very cheeky...
laughs alot...
yea..
the other ah beng looking one is very quiet...
but i got to know him in the end...
his name is gong jing...
he dresses like adel..dunnoe how to say..
but u will noe when u see him..
and hes fun to be with...
he drank too much water today...
and he keep asking me go toilet..
so i pei him lor...
u noe when ppl see us 2 keep going toilet? yea...rainbow
ok lets get back to the ice breaking...
the
OGLs [orientation group leaders] asked for a suggestion on how to ice break..
so one malay guy called Aniq stood up and gave a suggestion..
the game is blow wind blow..
shall explain it to ur...
first the volunteer says the phrase "
blow wind blow"
and everyone will reply "
blow wat?"
and the volunteer will think of smth to blow...
like blow those wearing specs...
and those wearing specs will have to switch places with each other...
the volunteer have to get a seat for himself too..
so the last guy becomes the person who wll say the blow wind blow again....
the process repeats...
den the second game is
whackoone volunteer will wield a rolled up paper...and another person is called to name someone..
and then the volunteer will have to rush to tap the named person..
the named person will have to call out another name before he is tapped so that he would not kanna....yea..
i kept calling Aniq's name...cos his a funny looking guy...haha!
i got caught sometimes when i can't hear the name when they call out...
its rather fun..
we tweak with some rules..
for example when the named person is called, the person on his right must call out another name in order to save the named person...
haha i kept calling the person on my right to call Aniq...LOL
yea thats the end of ice breaking...
and we went to a small theatre for a short briefing on school rules and such...
nth much except for some guy's phone which rang...[the funny part is that the ring tone is a guy screaming in a gay tone]
and we went to the auditorium..
inside theres a bigger theatre...
looks like a concert hall..
and equipped with comfy seats=D
and we had some presentation from the ogls...
and so and so..
finally its lunch!!!!
waited for 20minutes before my group got a table of seats in the cafeteria..
there's 3 types of food...
halal, normal, and vegeterian...
i ate the halal one..
cos the normal one ran out...
halal one consists of rice, tofu, cabbage, a sweet small chunk of pineapple and 2 drumlets...
the food sucks...
only the pineapple is nice..
the tofu tastes vile..
the drumlets are hard...and sticks to the teeth..
and the cabbage are dry..
but hunger is the only thing im thinking...
and i finished everything..
got one cup of diluted mango juice to satisfy my thirst..
after lunch, its tour time!!!
we went across various schools...
mostly exploring the school of interactive media design..
saw stunning works by nypples...
the animations are very exciting to watch.,..
they are rather cute too..
and theres an exhibition...
the clay models are exquisite...
small details are carefully drawn into the clay...
and there's drawings too..
theres one on animation...
2d animation...
those u see on tv, cartoons..
they are 2d animations if u dunnoe..
and there's a long long piece of paper showing a guy walking...
in 2d animations, u draw out the whole motions on each paper...
and the paper combine to show the person walking....
so imagine how long it takes to make an episode of cartoon...
for me, im digital media design[games]
i was told tat i have to draw...
so basically im the graphics designer for games...
yea...
and we work with the digital entertainment technology ppl
they are the ones who do the programming..
guess wat, sky is in that course...rofl!
eh lets get back..
the tour was long...
theres a small shopping mall in nyp...
the feel is like the first level of fareast shopping centre..
theres giordano inside...
there's 3 ppl working in giordano...
no business lol!
and theres cheers...
girls makeup and cosmetics corner...
and some clothes shop...
yea...
the girls bot macdonald's=.=
i bot a milk tea and here we go!
we continued our tour..
and when the tour ended we went back to the auditorium..
everyone felt dead...even me...im resting my head on my arm..
and the ogl tried to wake us up..
and we had some briefing on ccas, some videos and such..
the only thing nice is miss gail's briefing...
miss gail is a foreigner lecturer...
she plump and funny..
she promised us she would dance, but only if there's appropriate music=P
ya..
erm..
ok ....
tats.. all..
we went home...
at around 5plus...earlier than the actual timing 6..

im anticipating tmr's orientation..
there will be dry games and wet games..
and also there would be computer games...
they said theres an unreal tournament...yea...
speaking of games, our sch has a ps3 lab..
