Esprimere freshmen orientation...


If I have to wait for my holiday entries to be up before posting anything new, I'll miss out on many interesting events... First up is yesterday's outing at Sentosa...

SIM's singing club, Esprimere, had their orientation outing at Sentosa... Being part of the group, I went to help and get to know the juniors (of course, the latter is more important)... Was prepared to go into the water but no, they had to do something like the "Amazing Race"...

We were given several pictures (clues) and are supposed to take identical pictures with our digital cameras... The clues were seperated into envelopes and we were to get every picture before opening the next envelope... Some of the pictures don't give much clue about where it is located, for example our very first envelope... It shows several Japanese letters and that's all!!! We were totally clueless but luckily, we cheated... We opened the 2nd envelope and decided to complete the 2nd one first since it is very obvious that the place is at Fort Siloso... Good thing one of the girls have good attention to detail and manage to spot our first clue at Fort Siloso!!! After that, we decided to keep 2 envelopes open at all time...

Some of the pictures had poses and we had to do accordingly...

Taking the sky ride was part of the challenge...

After finishing all those pictures, we had to perform a song (we are a singing club after all)... We had a hard time choosing a song, and some practice to get the appropriate key for everyone... Just before the performance, we were told that creativity was part of the judging critera as well... We then decided to sing with a faster tempo and b-box at the chorus... With only 5 mins of practice time, we had no time to correct the pitch after getting the tempo and b-box correct... We knew the pitch was wrong, but did not dare to risk messing everything up while trying to change it... Obviously, the guys couldn't reach the gals' key; I tried my best but it's still awful... Judge for yourself here...

In the end, our group won!!! Haha... Not sure whether its because of the singing or the race... After that was some standard game; turn 20 rounds on the spot, run a distance then do something... As usual, my group won!!! I cheated... but... oh well...

Almost everyone left after that while only 4 went for dinner, then later to Hark Music Café... Went there to chill out and met up with those members that had already graduated...
