orientation @ monash... and a little extra.

wow. these few days have just been jam-packed with activities. yesterday we had a scavenger hunt around the city. but hey, this is no ordinary scavenger hunt. its actually a list of crazy activities to complete, of which the better half are sexual. oh well, the angmohs in my group seemed pretty happy about doing it. i almost wanted to 'report a lost chuppa chup to the police' cos each of us had to choose 1 task at least, but luckily they couldnt find a police station. phew. was planning my exaggerated act about how it was a lovely chuppa chup given to me by my bf and i HAD to find it cos of the sentimental value blah blah blah!! but then i was thinking how'd the policeman would take it. he'll prob let me off cos i'm in a grp and ppl generally get these kind of jokes but nonetheless, i think there's a law for making false reports. heh. at night, there was a trivia quiz. which was quite interesting cos i now noe that lachanophobia is the fear of vegetables!! haha andrew, thats for u. and yes thomas, goldfish dun get pregnant, even tho i said they were pregnant with EGGS. but i now realise this statement is contradictory because i jus checked the official definition of pregnant. yeah, so pregnant isnt jus getting bloated up, alright! now stop teasing and move on!!!

today we had a clubs and societies day. which is rather like cca day where u go around signing up at booths. and like smu, every club u join, u've to pay membership! theres no training etc watsoever, but u do get parties with like-minded ppl and subsidised rates to use the corresponding facility. so i signed up for tennis. will sign up for 1 christian society (and find out where the churches around here are). will sign up for the singapore students association (they organise parties with the rest of the singapore students studying in other schs in melbourne so its great for networking). and am contemplating to sign up for just one new activity because i'm just interested to try new stuff. wonder if i shld join this like outdoor activities club. they go skiing, white water rafting and mountain biking and stuff. it sounds really cool! esp since the scenery here is so nice. or shld i join the wakeboarding club. or salsa. die la. there's just too many things to try!! and i dun wanna neglect my work either. i just have to really organise and prioritise my time in order to balance between work and play, and make the most of this experience.

anw after that, a bunch of us took a bus down to clayton central to get groceries. hmm it somehow feels quite adult-ish to be shopping for your own groceries. somehow. got back, had dinner, then went for this toga party!! we all used our bedsheets cos we had no proper togas. anw the gals looked good in it, but the guys.. no comments. haha. it was rather fun, a milder version of clubbing. and with ABSOLUTELY NO SMOKE :) i just hate the smell of smoke! theres this song titled the holy grail where the guys started stripping themselves down to their briefs tho. its some culture but i wonder why. shall check out the lyrics or casually ask one of the angmohs next time. theres probably no reason actually, i think.

[this pic is pretty bad i'll upload a better one when i get my hands on it]
i noe this is rather ancient but these are a few memories i wanna keep. so here goes a lengthy picture post which i've left out previously. seems funny how i can leave out things so impt i still bother to blog about them even tho its past and i hav much more interesting new stuff to blog about, but even funnier that i missed them out in the 1st place.

cousin's farewell gift for me. soooo sweet.
