I’m proud that I was the first freshie to report to my OG on the first day, which was 15th July’08. My OG is RAMBO and we’re green. I’m not too much of a green person and apparently my wardrobe is in a major deficit of green clothings. I was texting my facilitator that I don’t have any green top blah blah in hope to swap places to join Yi Hui in her group. Ha.. In the end the transfer ain’t approved, to my delight thereafter.
Day 1 was mass games in NUS, followed by the Amazing Race and finally, we were to settled at East Coast Park for the night. There was this Secret Pal (SP) session every night, which I will talk about it next time.
As the title of the post suggests, this is about mass games.
Ice breaker and waiting for things to kick start:
(I was trying very hard to catch the words of a certain cheer)
There’s a “Cludeo” in which the comm will put up a short skit everyday and we will have to keep track of the storyline and finally guess the ending of the story and act it out on campfire night.
Here’s the first scene.
A green monster attacking a kingdom by assaulting the king.
Then 6 super heroes tried to salvage the kingdom with much difficulties.
Hence, the green monster ruled the kingdom. ( at this point of time, playing Viva La Vida is appropriate. hahah)
Mass games:
(learning a cheer, yes, a cheer)
Objective of this game: throw your slippers into the hula hoop.
My VS slipper.
Second part of the game- transport the bucket, which is filled with some water, using your feet to retrieve your slippers and return to the starting point.
Our opponents: Sun Wu Kong.
Third part of the game- place the hula hoop on the ground together.
We lost. Ha.
(who are these people??!!!)
2nd game: Dodge ball style with water bombs.
Our opponents: RoboCop
We lost, again. Ha.
Third game- Wet your opponents’ papers with water bombs when both parties are blindfolded.
Our opponents: Optimus Prime
Aim and fire!
‘Cuddle together’ tactic.
The girls’ feet are all on the ground.
Despite this happy shot, we lost the game too. Ain’t we good?
The next game- If you can’t tell me what’s my name, get splashed!
(I think the girl in the center is very pretty)
Our opponents: Eragon
Doing a combined cheer.
Say Hi to the green losers.
Losing all the games ain’t a big deal you know. We enjoy losing.
Painting our flag:
(The guy on far left looks like some mediacorp guy right!)
Our Rambo is a cockeyed and the nose bled was an accident.
Admiring our work. It’s a pretty little art piece, ain’t it?
ROARRR!!
Briefing before we set off to our Amazing Race.
I believe that you had to go through the camp to understand how fun it was. Words can’t really express my experiences I gained during the camp. It’s probably the most fun thing I had done in a long long time.
