Og chalet on tue..It was rather successful with cindy, june & their ogl crashing our chalet.Most of us met at pasir ris for lunch 1st before making our way to Costa sands. Had fun shopping at ntuc for all essential food and everyone was practically trying to 'exploit' james since he would be the one paying for everything. Evil.Haha.After tt, we all shared cab to Costa sands. Checked in and we started slacking ard, listening to james's army days stories. Super interesting & amusing! Then, we went to play frisbee while john & cindy went to prepare the food for the steamboat & 'bbq'.After a few rounds, we decided to play pool so we walked all the way to downtown east only to find out tt only those who brought their ic or student pass could play! In the end, those who did not bring just took turns to enter but of cuz, we did not manage to play any proper games. Alright for meI guess considering tt I am still quite new to the game. Went back to the chalet at abt 6 to prepare the table and laid all the food out while waiting 4 celina to bring the extension plug. Apparently she came late and although we were super hungry, we could not start cooking the food without the plug, so all of us just sat in front of the table and stared at the food! So pathetic la. Anyway, the steamboat and grilling session was really fun! It totally felt like cny eve reunion. As for me, I was trying really hard not to play around with the food! I also found out tt most of us are like tv freaks la, come to chalet also must catch the 7pm & 9pm show...Finally after all the shows, we started playing games. Obviously, they would not let anyone off without doing a forfeit so everyone was stressed while playing games. haha.Left about 11pm since i did not feel like staying over.
Rag practices on wed, thurs & fri. Wed practice was mainly on learning the whole children finale part and more combined practices. After training, most of the raggers went to botak john for dinner! The serving was huge and so all of us shared. Nice bonding session too with other raggers.
We learnt the whole dance on thurs. So happy, finally able to see the whole pic and how the whole story flows. I really think we need lots and lots of polishing up. After practice, my og wanted to go k-box so we happily went to sumo house PACKET dinner since it was just below the k-box place. Everyone was trying to smuggle the food in by stuffing into our bags. However, we realised that k-boxing was quite ex and not tt worth it so we decided to try party world but who knows, it turned out almost the same price as k-box! Thus, we walked all the way back to sumo house to have our 'take-away' dinner. So malu can, all the staff there was like staring at us la.
Rag on fri was relatively slacker as compared to wed & thurs. More of combined practices and polishing up of the formation & finale mass dance. On top of tt, jia wei told us the whole schedule for the next 2 wks. Gosh, it gonna be super taxing since is also orientation wk. Practically everyday, we have to practice till 11pm! I seriously hope tt I will have sufficient energy to last till 11 aug. The seniors gave us this serious talk on fri cuz I think some of them were quite pissed off tt some ppl came and left early and some dont even bother to come! Frankly speaking, quite alot ppl were missing on fri cuz so many holes could be seen, affecting the whole dance.Justine also mentioned that they will get meaner and meaner as rag day approaches and mon will be the start of our 'mo gui' training! Sounds scary but the seniors told us is because they really have very high expectations on us and I really hope that we will not let them down.No matter what, since I have committed myself to rag, I must persevere and not give up now. I know I can and I will.
