hi! just got back from psltc 06!
we were split into grps. im in shockwave! with roy, xin jia, becky and nora! short was too, but she went to penang for netball. and my spsls were sherrie, wenyu, zhixian and andrea! (<3).
it was a bit like having orientation all over again lah. so cool!
day 1:
we started with talks.
the first one was about DISC. by this guy called Ian tan. he was so funny! and he can do cool magic tricks. i still dont believe he isnt a high-i. btw, d=dominant, i=influencial, s=steady and c= concientious. its a bit like a personality test. haha.
then we had a talk on counselling skills by ms ronna tan. it was a bit draggy lah, but the roleplay was quite funny. especially alison's grp! haha.
as expected we got quite a handful of "the talks". you know, the ones about "you must listen to the speaker when he/she is talking", "you must show respect to your teachers and seniors", "your attire is terrible" etc. many of those. but no one seemed realy surprised so...
and then we had night surprise! which is basically 3 stations in which we must work as a batch to overcome the obstacles. we had disabilities too! mute, blind and crippled. i was crippled. didnt do much lah, cos the crippleds only could play the last one. ya. but it was fun!
day 2:
i slept for 7 hrs btw. haha. quite a wake in the morning.
anws, had bread. with nutella for breakfast.
more talk. by mr ch*w now. for 3 hours. i tell you almost everyone, including some spsls were sleeping lor. or really dead. ya. he had like 10 pages of slides. very long. and dry. so we got another talk about our lack of enthuness. sighzzz
and then we had... URBAN HIKE (uh). its ssoooooooo fun! but really tiring. basically we went around orchard to stations. and completed tasks.
our first was wheelock and we had to do the chicken dance. IN THE MIDDLE OF ORCHARD. FOR 2.5 MINS. omg. it was sooo fun! and cool! apparently jingles grp got filmed by this random guy. haha. thats so freaky.
then we went to ps! and we had to memorise movie posters so joelynn and zeslene could quiz us. haha. very amusing.
and then (still at ps) we had to look for 8 pairs of good friends who have known each other for more than 2 years! and take pics with them. it was so funny! we basically rushed around everywhere and asked random people! and we bribed some of the people doing flag day with donations. haha.
and then we went to far east! and we had to memorise 20 shop names and unit no.s quite a brainful. lol.
then we went to taka gramophone. and we did some equations (we had to fit in no.s to make them true). very confusing. and none of us were very math oriented.
but then we ran out of time... so we couldnt do the last two stations.
and then we met at ps again and formed psb'07 with our shoes (: so cute!
then we had dinner at taka. and went to the gifts bazaar downstairs!
haha. it was really good lar. and well-organised. and we got to know each other so much! like we were all kanchiong spiders! we walked super fast lah. then our spsls kept losing us. haha. sorry! ya. and we all sucked at math. heh.
day3:
badge initiation!
basically we wore our badges. and lit candles! and sang many many many songs again and again.
PSB'07 rocks! <3
