Orientation day 1.

The first day of orientation has just ended, and I'm tired.

Officially met my new class today. Not bad, considering the number of people in Media and a few ex-classmates here and there. We also have the council president and vice-president, which is cool.

Went down to the canteen before school started to try and meet our new junior, but (disappointingly for us) we found out he isn't even in the country yet. How on earth is that possible? Why on earth would you have him miss the first week of school? It would be so much harder getting to know people without orientation (although my batch didn't have orientation either).

So yes, we were all baffled. This is the most mysterious junior yet.

Assembled in the hall, where we listened to people talk for a while, and then went off to hang around in the canteen 'cause we were ahead of schedule.

Met mentor, and she's quite awesome already. Topped up school's pizza fund and allowed John Huang to have like, ten slices.

House meeting-ed, mass danced (I'm still a terrible dancer, and hardly enjoy it), then went on to play these random games where we had to do these random things in order to earn things to sell for money, which we had to use to buy other things to play this other game with. A bit confusing at first, but then we managed to pull through and earned a lot more than a few of the other classes.

Now my body kinda aches, though.

Then went totally behind schedule, so we cut the game short.

Had the first hostel dinner of the year. Finally returned to normalcy, except familiar faces are still everywhere and that's kinda creepy.

Then went out with Wai Yin to buy cloth and paint for our CCA fair booth.

Came back, had our rooms checked by Ms Kong, then went downstairs to play pool with a bunch of other people. Yeah, busy day, what with trying to cram in as much hostel fun as possible within the week before school really starts and kills us all. Sigh.

All right, going off now.

Night.

P.S. Oh, and we're the only Year 5 class on our floor without air-conditioning. That's so sad.
