NYP SHS Orientation 2010

This big event was finally over. A great relief. My role for this year's event did not seems to have any importance.

I was not told of what was going to happen and what to do. On the event day, what I merely contributed was collecting food for the club members. I was sent to get the food alone. It was very nice of one of the students in-charge of food to help me carry the other 17 packs all the way from North Canteen to the Auditorium. I carried another 4 packs and 21 packs of drinks.

Reaching the auditorium, I was told to bring the food to the sports hall. Instructions was just given to me with no one offering any help. I waited. Another girl from the club came to help me. As she has a way smaller body build than me, I carried all 21 packs of rice and three packs of drinks while she carried the rest of the drinks. It was so heavy that I could hardly move.

As I was not feeling well, I was having a slight fever, I did not have much appetite to eat. Seeing that, someone asked for a reason for not showing interest in my food. Since it was nice of him to ask, I told him that I was having a fever. The shocking thing was that he actually shouted across the hall to tell the president, making the whole world knowing that I was sick. I know he has no harm in doing so but that totally shocked me.

After having our meals, it was time to get back to work. The freshies were going to play their bonding games. Having nothing to do, I sat at the bench the whole day, forcing water down my throat. My fever did somehow subsided. The rest of the club members with nothing to do went crazy on the stage, singing and dancing. It looks fun.

At around 3pm, I went to take a look at the Wushu clubroom as I believe that some of the people must have arrived. Played with "gun" and "dao", I really miss the feeling that I get during training. Itchy muscles.

The orientation ended with a mass dance. Looks fun. I was still sitting at the side. I helped out in clearing so that everybody can go home early. There were more things to clear after most of the things were taken up to the clubroom. I cleared the rest of the things after spotting them on the floor while going for wushu as the SHS clubroom was locked.

I planned to buy the cake for March and April's birthday babies celebration. I did not do so as the event ended late. Though it dragged, I really must say that the emcees had did a great job in hipping up the atmosphere.

The after-action-review was done the day before yesterday. It was a disappointing day for me due to some changes in post that I do not understand. I still feel alienation and isolation. Oh well. Tomorrow will be a better day. Anyway, the feedback from the freshmen was that it was a fun event. I am really glad that they had enjoyed themselves.
