Dont ever doubt the freshies' enthusiasm.
Because post FOOT was postponed to another day, they started to miss us and the fun.
They cant wait to see us again, we went out for Inception and a gaming session at Playnation.

You guyz rock my world. =)

Another effort of ODAC supporting its sponsor. =)

Every year during this period, you will get to see final year student wearing graduation gown taking photos all around NTU, and even out of NTU.
Its NTU convocation week.
Representing ODAC, we have Untung, Douglas, Jayren, Jie yang, Junzhong, Chyekiat, Mike, Yonghan, Serene, Joy and more...
Congrats!

I wonder how it feels to have your education journey ended and have to step into the working society.
I ever encounter this feeling, but not long after my results was out, the feeling just faded.
NTU accepted me, NUS too..
I wonder what kind of job will i get?
How's my salary is like?
Where's my workplace?
I have 1.5 years to go.
Gotta start planning already!

After 6 days of fun, finally its Mayhwee's turn to fly.
Initially she was supposed to be in Aussie with Esther and Weixin already, but she stayed just to take on the CGL role.
Freshies and FOOT comm, are you touched?

I feel so bad not being able to give her what i did for Weixin.
But i hope she understand, i think she i will... =P
I was caught up with FOOT presentation, FOOT preparation and biz mag stuff.
The evening at the airport so was rush, i only had 30 mins to design the card.
In the end it turned out to be very nice!!!
Reallie glad that she likes the card!!! =)

Anywae i reallie hope she will take good care in Aussie, afterall its a foreign country.
She will enjoy her trip!!

FOOT 2010 was awesome!
The freshies were all very enthu, which was a very good thing, the job for the seniors became easier.
The 6 days were full of fun.
Be it bouldering, dragon boating, orientation games around NTU or mutlilevel captain ball.
The toughest part was night cycling. As the activity's name suggested, we had to cycle overnight.
But i was so surprised i was still very high even after the cycling.
FOOT 2010 was a great success!
minus the ms pelepah segment, i dont like the explicit content.

Just some personal feeling...
This FOOT may be my last one, what's in my mind was to enjoy the camp as much as possible.
My aim was to get to know more freshies, and go through all the games with them, so I tried my very best to hang around them as often, but i had to be away from the group most of the time.

I was appointed the Bouldering IC, Safety Officer for overseas trek and the Welfare IC for Ondrea.
People trust me thats why they assigned the job to me, of course I honourably took on all of them.
I have to apologise to our GLs, Alex and PeakSiah that Ivan and I had to leave the group to collect fireworks when you guyz were doing grocery shopping and packing for overseas segment, and on day 5 when i had to settle the biz mag stuffs.
Xin Ku you guyz le! Hope you guyz like the fireworks, though it wasnt mine or Ivan's idea, but we were the one who made fireworks possible =)

Come to think of it, Ondrea is the most original group.
Wondering why? Go and take a look at all the Ms pelepah and campfire photos.
Our freshies are most determined going after SPs, even though they were once rejected or the requests they got were too ridiculous.
Our seniors are most friendly and kind among the rest, we never reject freshies, and our requests were just simple. At least we didnt hide in toilet when we know freshies are approaching.

I feel closer to this batch of freshies compared to last year's, the reason is obvious for those who knows, I need to serve the country.
I just hope the Ondrea spirit will last, and beat the one we had in Dyeus, which has already/almost died off..
Jiayou Ondrea!!! =)
You guyz are the best!

There's a saying " there're no bad employees, only bad bosses", but I don't agree with that, at all..

I have my own saying "if your boss has to ALWAYS take care of your work, then what's the point of hiring you..." Afterall your boss is a human being, he/she is not superman/superwoman. They have their own work to be done too.
I know Everybody deserves opportunities to make mistakes so that they can learn, but what if they just never learn? It can only prove that your boss has made a wrong decision by choosing you..

It's over... Good luck to you.

The day Weixin and Esther left Singapore for exchange.
I wonder how they feel, going to a foreign place to stay for 6 months.
But they didn't cry.
If i were them, i would have cried seeing so many people at the airport.
I'm not a cry baby, i'm just sentimental.
Anyway Hope they enjoy their stay in Aussie~~!!!

After sending them off, i went back to east coast park for Pumpfest BBQ part 2.

The chicken that Ivan marinated were damnz nice!

They even prepared fire sparklers too.

Playing the sparklers remind me of my childhood.

We had a good time chatting and eating and laughing.

Thanx for inviting me!

After the long wait, we finally get to meet our freshies.
I'm so happie to be in Ondrea.
The seniors are wonderful and the freshies, at one glance should be nice too..

As usual we met at Esplanade.
Played some orientation games and did some cheers.
A lot of things still need to be tied down, to make the group perfect.

Reallie cant wait for the real FOOT to come.
19th July!!!

Finally its her turn to sing for Singapore!!
Corrinne May!!!

Check out the song...

Its been 3 weeks in a row that we went to Tanjong Pagar to have lunch with Preggy.
Opps, i mean Aveline.
This is time round we have Eugene Liseng Ivan Aveline and I. The supper gang. =)
The food at Amoy Hawker Centre is just irresistable.
I was craving for the Lor Mee, but the stall wasnt opened.
We tried the Hor Fan, damnz it is just as nice.
Now i have craving for Hor Fan~~!!!
Coincidentally, we also met Andy at the hawker center.
If people see us, they might think we are having a mini main comm gathering.

Another evident of ODAC supporting their sponsors.
We went Once Upon A Milkshake after lunch.
The milkshake is damn nice, making us go back again and again...
My 5th time there already..

6th time?
Next week?
Maybe....

Evident of ODAC members supporting its sponsors.

Fourteenth main comm had our retreat at Saizeriya Ristorante E Caffe @City Square Mall.
We didn't managed to use the vouchers cos it expired 3 days ago.
The price was affordable, but we had 350++ bucks worth of food.
We ordered like nobody business.
Too bad people who are not around, bleahz...
I like to see the table full of food!

After the dinner, we went KBox @AMK.
Ivan Esther Liseng Eugene and I
Its very cheap, 8bucks nett.
I enjoy singing with them!!

I must say that I'm proud to be a good trip leader.
Okokiez, not very superb, but at least not the worst, i know of some lousy ones...  =X

Samuel Keller said NTU ODAC is one of the best thing that NTU has offered to student.
True true~~!!!
He went on my Stong trip which was also his 1st ODAC trip.
Feel so glad that because of this 1st trip, a 2nd one occurred.
Too bad he's leaving soon, I bet if he could just stay in Singapore for another 1 year, or even 1 semester, he would sign up for more trips.

Thanks Samuel for inviting us over.
I feel so warm that he remembers us.

All the best samuel in job hunting~~!!!

Ps:: I was expecting Dilip, but he wasnt free....

"Working for ODAC is tiring, but playing with ODAC people is extremely fun..." - Quoted from HuiYing.

I totally agree!
The past weekend, ODAC had its own local seniors camp.
I finally got to hear all the cheers and songs, I have been looking forward to all these things, afterall its an yearly event.
Although some of the games maybe lame, but they're definitely fun.
Sure able to bond the group.
I'm very honoured to be tasked as the welfare IC and overseas trek safety officer.
Make use of me please.. haha..

I prefer the new night cycling route, its so much shorter than the old route.
In a way, its good for everyone, with more rest cos the next day will be a long one, very tiring.

Just anticipating how this year's FOOT is going to be like.

It was kind of late.
Her actual birthday was on the 30th June but we only celebrated for her 2 days later.
Heard from Huizhen that we could have done all these in advance,
due to the many people who told Huizhen to celebrate with her belatedly and in the end put aeroplane.
No matter what, it was still very nice meeting the old biz maggers!!

Belated Happie Birthday, Chinghui~~~!!! =D

We went to Cafeteria @Suntec for italian food.
The food wasnt that fantastic, it was the company that made the evening.

Later on we proceeded to Milennia walk for cake cutting.
And we watched the Brazil VS Neitherland match, standing outside some pub which is screening it.
It was a very disappointing match, the previous World Cup Champion was out in the quater final.

We decided on Porridge buffet. So looking forward to it!!!!

Its been 2 months since my holidays started.
In case you guyz might think i'm lazy, I have been looking for job, and at the same time slacking around.
Not that i dont want to go back to my old company, but FILA is no longer operating in Singapore.
That means, i'm officially JOBLESS, since april.
I desperately need a job/jobs, but it is so difficult to find when there are so many activities in between.

I miss school but i love holidays..
I love to slack! Slack too much that i'm became so lazy to blog.
But i'm back! Let me tell you what kind of holidays i have..
No wordy entries, let the photos tell the stories, from recent activities...

Biz Mag Luge outing

Organised by Perrine who is working at Sentosa Luge.
And thanx to her, we enjoyed free luge rides.
Luge is also one of our sponsors for all our events, we were there to show support by using their vouchers and at the same time enjoy the rides.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ODAC Kayaking Expedition

It is another event organised by Adventure sports.

The day was so sunny, we just spammed the sun block lotion like nobody business.
Thanks Adventure sports for organising this event, its my 1st kayaking expedition! =)

Come to think of it, i'm quite a loyal fan of ad sports!

I've attended all their official events.
ODAC family day, Q cube trek, B-east, ODAC huat year, Intercomm day, kayaking expedition...

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Adventure Trail Challenge 2010

Its our 3rd event.

Its good to see all the yellow people gather and put in effort to help.
I think its definitely better than the previous years event.
Communications between Biz Mag and ATC is also better.
We helped up one another and things turned out to be very fantastic.

I LOVE ATC!

Hope it doesnt rain next year...

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Nandos Chicken

Its quite a last minute thing.

Called up by Ivan and the next thing I know, we were queueing to get into the restaurant.
I even stopped working on my biz mag admin stuff for it... (i brought my lappie along though)
All i was thinking about is that ATC is just 3 days later and I definitely deserve good food before i start work for the actual event.
But but but....

Im quite disappointed with the food..... eeekks....

Dessert was better =)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Biz Mag chalet

We were lucky to have Perrine and valerie organising this gathering.

They managed to get this chalet so last minute, cos normally booking will need at least a few months in advance.
The 1st room we got was damnz smelly after they opened the fridge.
The smell just couldnt go away even though the fridge was closed.
We managed to get a free upgrade to a bigger room with cleaner toilet.

We Daily scoop-ed, steamboat-ed, night cycled, Taboo-ed, HTHT-ed and had Macdonald breakfast!

I love my biz mag!!!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Prive

We celebrated Douglas' birthday which was planned like 2 months ago at Prive @keppel island.

It was my first fine dining.
I must say, after the dinner, i concluded that fine dining isn't suitable for me, at all.
I want to fill my stomach!! haha~~
Anyway it was an expensive dinner, the ambience is good and the food was quite delicious.
Thanx Douglas!!!!

We finally got to pass Douglas' birthday card to him, which we wrote our messages in Nexus during exams..

I got mine too!!! I love it!
And i got to blow candles again...

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Steph's birthday

HAppie birthday steph!

I missed the BBQ for my biz mag chalet just to go to her birthday party.
I somehow feel i was so underdressed for such a party, who can be blamed, i'm going to chalet after that.
The cake is so nice! just like a toy.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Pumpfest 2010

This is one of the 4 ODAC events that biz mag can show case our effort to everybody.

We proved our hard work.
I spent the whole week at the event area helping up with Pumpfest comm.
It's just like my own event already.
I somehow feel more connected to Pumpfest event, maybe because i was attached to Pumpfest last year.
Pumpfest 2010 is definitely better than previous years', everything went smooth.

Good Job Pumpfest!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Rice table

Been to The Rice Table for indonesia buffet with the buffet gang less Aveline.

All i can say is HOT! I burnt my lower lips.
If you cannot take spicy stuff, you can forget about it.
The variety also not alot, what else can i expect, muslim food so limited..
I wont want to go back, even if it's free.
But if there's anyone who wants to treat, i can suggest a better place.. =)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

X physics

Disappointing!!

Its not all about winning, we dont even enjoy the race.
It was supposed to be a urban race and the first sub point was to make us crawl on oragne mud.
We couldnt even cycle at on the cycling trail.
What's worse, we lost our way.
We skipped from checkpoint 3 to 6, which means we had to run back to checkpoint 3.
On the way back we ran passed checkpoint 4 and 5.
Imagine the extra distant we ran.
Totally gave up already.
I was also quite angry with myself, i think my stamina dropped alot.
Who's to blame? I didnt even train for it.

Luckily one of the ODAC teams got the 1st prize.
Congrats!

Monsters, lets try our last time before we graduate!
Step up 2011!!
Must train, no more excuses!!!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Intercomm day

Its on 14th May!!!

I have no choice.
I have been spending my birthdays with ODAC ever since i became a member.
Nonetheless I've enjoyed myself.

The game was about eating.

My favourite thing to do.
We ate good food from SP NP SMU SIM NUS...
eat eat eat eat eat...

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lata

This is my 2nd time to Lata.

And its one of the best trip i've been to in this work year.
I've met a group of nice and fun people, and they were the unexpected highlight of the trip.
Too bad they were year 4 student, if not they can attend FOOT.
They probably made good seniors.

This is a new experience.

This trip is worth the money!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

IP Man 2 outing

The first day after exams.

This outing is the long awaited for, after the stressful time i spent studying.
We had Japanese food at The Japanese Gourmet @Vivocity.
As usual we cam whored all the way...

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Happy labour day

Popeye Chicken for half price. Who will miss this?

I rejected going to Jazanne's 1st birthday party because of exams, not because of this.
I only agreed to go after i rejected.
I'm sorry Dennis...

I miss the bread...

5th July 2010...

Headed to army market on thursday to buy stuff for FOOT camp.
Its in 2 weeks' time, i cant wait!
Then met up with Ivan, Tung, Munir and Douglas for a dinner at Lucky Plaza and movie at the Cathay.
The Legend is born - Ip man.
I still need to go Mount Faber buy more stuff!

Amazing. I love Jolin...
