'DAY BETA OF ORIENTATION'

Late. Supposed to be with the class at Dover by 0745, but only managed to reach the venue at 8. Fortunately, I had informed my facilitator that I will be late. When I had finally reached, none of my classmates were there, which I had already expected. I was thinking if i should just head for the auditorium myself, when a classmate patted on my back.

'Hey, you're my class one, rite?', it felt great then to see someone, of the same class, in the same shoe, haha. Then, out of nowhere, my facilitator appeared miraculously, i literally heaved a sign of relieved. I got a seat in the auditorium, stared at the stage, and the blank screen. Bored. The other facilitators as usual were trying doing cheer. It was 8 plus in the morning when I saw other courses screaming their head off, haha. I had forgotten to mention one thing in my previous post. The course I am in, Accountancy, is the quietest course in the whole of business school. So how did out facilitator cheered? It was really exceptional from other school.

'DAC, diam!'

Then thumbs up to us. He did not actually need to do that. We were already quiet, since the day before. I laughed at this point. Then they had performances by the dance clubs and cheer leading group and talks from the principal, a lecturer and the head of councilor. The principal's talk is like so soothing, that I almost slept, haha. The performances was quite nice, especially the ones from the dance clubs.

Lunch next. Yesterday's meal costs me $2.60, today's $1.70 and is much nicer. Then break away from my class to find Egin, who is configuring his computer. Then when i gone back to the same place, they were vanished, somewhat similar to the morning. Manage to find them after calling my facilitator.

When we were back at the auditorium, we played a game called '007'. We will have to formed a circle and the first person will shout '0', and point to the next person. The next 3 person will repeat the routine but shout '0', '7', and 'bang' respectively. The people beside the person who was pointed after the 'bang', must raise their hands and shout 'ah!'.

It was very fun and interesting, almost had to do the forfeit, haha. Then my class suddenly become so enthusiastic. When the other courses were cheering, the facilitators decided to try their luck.

'DAC, oie!'.

'OIE!'.

The leading facilitator was taken aback that there was a reply, and its from my class. I feel so proud, haha. Then the other facilitator praise us. When the amazing race starts, our class girls had already sprinted off. I think that enthusiasm is contagious, as I ran even though I did not planned too. Midway in the race, I feel that my class is alive, hahaha.

There are several checkpoints, such as drinking water from a straw with several more openings on its body, line up according to birth dates, finding tags hidden in the school and many more. Our facilitator is always urging us to run, and you could feel that you want to win, instead of feeling bored. It was tiring but really fun. We did not manage to win any prizes but I am contented with the process.

Today is much more tiring. Today is much more fun.

Today is much more exciting.
