Hi i'm back home! haha... came back to get some stuff and plan my modules and now i feel lazy to go back.
Hall orientation was... ok. like the usual orientations that i've been to. not very exciting, not much to blog about. anyway i've got about 12 days of orientation to go =X
I think the most exciting thing that happened to me was when i got lost in NUS. i was carrying those 2 damn heavy matriculation packs heading back to hall when i took the wrong direction of bus. by right it shouldn't be much of a problem cos i could just stop at the terminal and take the same bus again. sounds duh but ya, this is what happens when you do not have enough direction sense.
So that was what i did... yet i wasn't familiar with the route and missed my stop. the next stop was too far away and when i got down, i have absolutely no idea where to go from there. and suddenly it just started raining. drat. how sway can i get?!
The lost sheep somehow found her way by walking (a long way) to some bus stop which looked familiar and fortunately it was the right direction.
By the time i reached my hall i was 50% wet and 1/2 hour late for dinner. i look like i've been through hell. oh but there was still a good thing that happened to me... my neighbours were waiting for me!! so sweet of them... we all ended up finishing last in the (air-conditioned!) dining room lol...
And i dunno whether the feng shui of my room is bad or my shoes wore out, i just kept tripping my way. up the bus, down the stairs, even when walking on flat surfaces i have to trip at least thrice a day. but don't worry i haven't fallen YET. i've got a little cut on my feet though.
Oh yes and i just gotta complain about the DATING part of orientation. every freshie was anticipating some sort of secret pal dating game sponsored by sdu. but hoho we were supposed to go hunt for some senior from another block and try to date him/her to the formal dinner. "you can make banners, write notes or even serenade to him".
You're asking to go jio some guy whom i don't even know and ask him out for dinner?!?!? sounds totally wrong to me. what makes them think that everyone is super desperate to get attached??? gimme a break!
Think it's just some ploy the seniors devised to help themselves get asked out for dates. the scheming people.
