Sec one Prefect's orientation..(fun, fun, fun)

Had the sec one prefect's orientation today. Had to reach school by 7.50. Haiz, so much for sleeping in on Saturday. :(. When we reached school, we went up to the hall and Mrs Chan told us what to do. First, we were sorted out into our groups. I was in the group " Hey! Arnold!" Yeah, that's a cartoon character. Cos this year the theme was on cartoon characters. Hehehe..Mel, you probably would have loved it. :D. There were groups like Dexter, Tweety, Donald Duck, The pink panther, Scooby-doo and a few more I can't remember..>.<. Well, after we got into our groups, the 2 prefects who were in charge of us, made us sit in a circle and made us introduce ourselves. we had to do the introduction 3 times, cos we couldn't really hear one another. The 2 prefects were called Hui Fang and Sheridan (?? dunno how to spell...so I'll call you sheri ok? heh..sorry). I was in the same group as Qiying and Claire. We started out playing some games, then the real thing started. We had to go around the school and play some games. There would be another group playing the same game, so we were to compete against that group, and the winner would walk away with more points. The more points the better la, of course! The first game we played was at the track. Each group had a pail of water, and in the pail was 2 sponges. We had to take the sponges (which were filled with water), run to the end of the track and try to squeeze as much water as we could into the bottle. The group that had the most water in the bottle would win the game!! It was a fun game, and the prefects were there cheering away. Eventually, the opposing team won..but we still gave them 3 cheers, and they gave us another 3 in return..lol. After that was more games. The games were really fun. One game was putting your foot into a bag of trash (just green paper and newspaper, really) and using a satay stick to search for a green ball. Then, you had to hop back with the green ball and put it on a plate. Hands were not allowed, but still can la. Another game was using a straw and blowing a rubber duck across the water to touch a black peice of something. There were 3 tubs of water, so the duckie had to go through that thing 3 times. We won, blowing 22 ducks across the water in 7 minutes. We even broke the record by 2!! hahaha. then there was a balloon bursting game, in which we had to burst the balloon with a pink panther picture inside. For every wrong balloon burst, 3 points were minused. So Hui Fang went around checking which balloons had the pink panther inside, and those that didn't have a pink panther inside was thrown aside by her. Haha. I don't think that was allowed anyway. Then we had a spider-web game, where we had to help our team-mates go through some holes (which weren't very big), and get across to the other side. Touching the strings of the web would cause deduction of points. I was the last to go over, and Hui Fang and Sheri had quite a hard time lifting me..hahaha..But in the end they managed it, and I got over, beating the time by about 2 seconds..haha. There were about 3 or 4 more games, which were as fun, but I won't elaborate. The orientation ended with each of the groups doing their own individual cheer. In the end, we emerged as one of the consolation winners. Can't remember who was champion. But this sec one prefect's orientation was really super!! I love Hui Fang and Sheri, who were so enuthu and friendly and nice!! Thanks for buying snacks for us..=D. They are really nice people..can't believe they are also gonna be the people who will be booking us..haha! But on the whole, was a really great time I had..will never forget it!!

Went shopping at Orchad Road with mum after the orientation. Went there to buy chinese new year clothes. Walked around Robinsons but couldn't find much. Then we went to OG. OG has lotsa nice clothes-and clothes for people my age too. =D. Prices are quite reasonable bah, but some can be quite expensive. After walking around for about 2 and a half hours, I bought 2 skirts from OG and my mum bought a pair of 3/4 pants (also from OG). So far I've only been getting nice and reasonable clothing for my age from OG. My denimn skirt was alos from OG and it's nice.. =). Well, happy with the lot. Will go shopping for tops one day..!! hehes
