MMU OC Binding Camp 2007/08

during my 3week sem break, i decided not to let myself rot at home, so i applied to join the orientation committee(OC) to 'orientate' the new batch of freshies for the coming intake. so had to go back uni 2 weeks earlier 1st week for OC binding camp n the 2nd week when the orientation programme begins. well this post has been pending for some time so i'll just make it simple...

4th June, Monday (Day 1)

headed back to uni in the evening. collected our temporary room keys n was given a guys name by the coordinator. he was my mortal n i was his angel n my job was to take care of him during the 2 weeks of camp n orientation. there wasn't much activity on the 1st day and we had our ice breaking session at night in the student briefing area(SBA) and was divided into 7 groups. the SBA will be our lepak place thru the whole binding camp where all the fun and games take place.

i was in Group 5 and though we had our group names, we just called each group by their group number.

my group's logo n the little pockets there wit our names on it were the post box that our angels is suppose to leave notes or goodies for us.

5th June, Tuesday (Day 2)

woke up at 6am. hvnt been to camp for quite some yrs n i'm not used to the routine lifestyle. had to gather in front of the STAD building at 7am for our morning exercise.

1st day of camp n late comers are common, punishment: singing the uni theme song at the top of their voice.

by this time most of us hv already known each of our group members n we started out team building modules.

we had to fit the whole group in a piece of A4 paper....

...and this is how u do it

later in the evening, sport session...

the try-to-catch-the-balloon-game watever u call it

and the deformed group cheer, which later became like the official cheer cos everyone used that cheer

later at night, we gathered back at the SBA for another session of games n team building modules.

6th June, Wednesday (Day 3)

to start the 3rd day, we gathered same time same place for our morning exercise.

gedik-ed ppl doin star jumps

and aft that we were in for a blind folded game...

got snapped while bein blind folded! with a clown posing beside...

up...

and down we go...

and voila, our group that hasn't won anything at all on the 1st day finished the course 1st!!! so proud of Eric for bein such a great leader when we're all in the dark.

random event: Nicky enjoying a strip dance performance

aft the blind folded game we were given a song to perform a musical. our leader chose 'I saw her standing there' by The Beatles which was a really good choice of song indeed. we were only given a few hours to come out wit a play, practice and had to perform aft lunch.

performing our musical, notice the gals? wat we wore reminds me of my printer's colour cartridge...

and here comes the good news again, our group won 1st place again in this musical... my heart was beating so fast when Nicky was announcing the results starting fr the lowest score, i was preparing to hear our group name being announce(cos i think we did a not-so-good job compared to the other groups), but group aft group, i didnt hear us bein called. finally it was the final 2, its either 1st or 2nd place, n i tot 2nd place wud be us, but its wasnt our group name being called out... wow... 1st place! damn we were happy!!! good job Group 5!

the next module would be this public speaking thing that involves auctioning gigolos...

the 6 most desirable gigolos that were up for auction

me, representing my group, bidding for 1 of the gigolos

later, there was sport session in the evening... despite all the modules my group won in the day, we really sucked at this leg-tying game. i think we took the longest time to complete the game. the gals cud not catch up wit the guys who had really long legs and took very big steps.

we walked, and walked...

and walked, and walked... till sunset... and we were still walking -.-"

7th June, Thursday (Day 4)

finally, last day of binding camp... though only a short time together, most of us were already starting to miss the tears and laughter we shared for the pass 3 days.

trying to figure out a jumbled up story

then reading it out and all 7 groups had a different story!

transporting 1 of my group members thru the spider web in the 2nd last module

and a family pic of Group 5 during the last module (missing out Bob)

in the evening, the camp organizers told us they had this special activity specially for us. they told us to dress in dark coloured clothes n reminded us not to bring any valuables wit us. we guess that for sure we will be drenched in water, but didnt know how.

at the given time, all of us gather at the HB4 food court, and were told to take a seat n tie up our legs. we tot it was another session of games and no one suspected anything. we sat there and Nicky ask us to close our eyes and think back on the 1st day we came back to uni, took our keys and chk in to our rooms, had our ice breaking and carried out our modules on the 1st day of camp until something happened. n i was there, wit my eye close, picturing wat Nicky had said... something happened? wat happened la? i thought...

i heard some movement beside me n then the next thing i knew... i heard some gals scream, and then, SPLASH!!! and i screamed too...

saw the water? landed nicely on my head...

n we still blur blur sit there let them splash water till someone yelled, "untie yourselves la!"

all the soaking wet OCs

we had our last dinner together, with every OC present...

n took turns suap-ing each other...

sang "Those were the days" and had our OC cheer on the last night of binding camp.

being an oc, joining the binding camp was truly an unforgettable experience, n i nv regret 'sacrificing' my 2 weeks of hols. until registration day, when the freshies arrive, thats when we really get bz...

some hols i'm goin thru...

well, i wasn't doin much during the 1st week of hols besides cleaning up the house n watching some drama series... 2nd week (this week) was much more eventful...

a new member was added to my pillow family...

super cute 'Gingy'

went to play badminton wit Suz n Punex...

Punex: u know my @$$ is under construction so i can fit into the ***** BB gave me...

Suz: ewww... pls i'm eating ice cream here...

the 3 sukus

then today (more like 1st of June) finally went to watch Pirates of the Caribbean 3: At World's End and Shrek 3 wit Kenneth. enjoyed both movies but i think Shrek 1 & 2 was better... the 3rd wasn't really up to my expectations...

having dinner at Bar.B.Q Plaza

was having a great time till during dinner, its was when the series of unfortunate events started. 1st there were some chgs in plans with the meeting with Yen n Wai Kit, but we manage to sort things out. then when i was driving Kenneth's car back to Rawang, i dunno how some 'thing' hit and smashed the windscreen... well i've experienced this kind of situation b4 but not when I AM driving, i guess this wud be my very 1st time... i was on the verge of panicking but still manage to pull myself together and switch to the slower moving lane but still got honked by some other vehicles as i was not careful enuf when chging lanes. i really didnt know wat to do so i kept on driving slowly while calling Kenneth and Wai Kit... yeah dangerous to drive n talk on the phone but still it was dark n i'm not gonna stop beside the highway in the middle of nowhere all alone... it really was kinda a frightening experience for me but still manage to drive back to Kenneth's house n by that time this was how the smashed windscreen looked like...

so much for the car now i hv to postpone today's shopping & Italiannies trip wit my sis n Xiao Chen to another day... so, i was really late in meeting Wai Kit n Yen and the unfortunate event didnt end here. later when we're about to leave, Yen's dad who came to pick her called and say that the car over heated -.-" i knew something was wrong by the way Yen was talking to him n i was like not so sueh gua... takkan the windscreen smashed? lucky it wasnt but we didnt know where to find a mechanic shop that was open at that time, but lucky they still manage to sort things out...

i guess thats a really 'great' start for a new month...
