MJC Orientation Vincitore
Day 3

wet n wild was the theme of the day.. of cuz.. that was merely one of the 2 highlights of the eventful day.. comparing to what we did in TPJC.. this overwhelmed it literally.. it was organized to speak the least and had more water bombs!! =D.. nvm the fact that it lacked the massive water battle between houses as its finale.. we still had loads of fun! the OGLs and councilors sadistically sprayin and dumping water over us. i stand as a living proof as i alone took 5 buckets of water.. ice cold fresh from the water cooler..
i always thought orientation was a fun occasion where everyone competed in a free spirit in the name of healthy competition.. the house tension was extremely high.. we us Tritons time and time again being accused and penalized for "cheating" which we didn't and arriving late.. councilors took sides towards their own houses.. gosh.. this truly is an all out war.. examples of how we Tritons were penalized.. despite winning the finale.. we were accused of cheating and were deducted 150points of the total we had.. 700 points were deducted when OGLs turned up late for a meeting.. *isn't 700 a tad.. ok A WHOLE lot too much?*
putting all that aside.. we prep ourselves for the campfire.. our last stand.. to take what is rightfully ours.. u get the picture..
we came up with the theme of pirates.. and since the mascots aka actors weren't allowed to speak nor were there any audio playing devices presented to us.. we had to make our own sound.. the guys of triton8 either became the mascots or joined the choir to play our bit..

Our mascots.. Left to right.. Pirate A[sorry i duno ur name nor role] Eugene[Futuristic Gay Pirate], Song Leng[doing split][Old Retired Pirate], Jaryl[Nerdish Pirate], Charles[Super Big Pirate], Andy[Captain], YoungSing[Emo Pirate](u rock with the makeup on man!!)

we cheered.. acted.. choired.. and emerged champions..

MJC Orientation [ Vincitore ]

Day1
3 days of orientation started for us all "freshies"[gosh that sounds so wrong].. i think mjc is probably the only JC which held their orientation after the march holidays... and while we were having fun.. other JCs had started on their curriculum.. o the poor souls..
and so.. i was posted to.. TRITON 8.. i love the name so much.. but sadly the banner displayin our house had the worst design among the other 5 houses.. in my opinion.. Calisto's banner is the best..
sorry i dun haf a photo of it. i didn bring my cam along with me during the orientation and was lazy to take out my phone..=D..
surprise surprise.. my class only had 6 of us guys during orientation.. and on the first day.. we guys were the only enthu one.. the 10girls were kinda dead on the first day.. sigh.. o well.. we played CSI Meridian that day.. using the storyline of Deathnote to facilitate the intriguing mystery behind it all.. clues such as phone bills, photos of arguments, personal letters and even letters from IMH to state the mental problems of 2 of the suspects!! gosh.. they really did put in alot of hard work to this.. not to mention they even prepared a video to kick start the whole thing!!

Day 2
2nd day.. the day of MMM..i'm not sure what it stands for but in layman's term its an amazing race which took place around town.. yup town!! MJC was running around town carrying our plycards displaying our OG proudly i think.. lol... for 7whole hours from 9am to 4pm!
this was my OG's route.. MJC to SMU[city hall] to elgen[i think its spelt this way] bridge to somewhere near Riverside Point to Arts Museum to DFS center and finally to some church behind the arts Museum.. did i mention we only could walk? except for the journey to city hall which we took a train.. yea. so our legs were extremely tired.. esp after the first stop where we had to run round SMU campus finding stupid stuff.. which were found in the most obvious places which we didn't look into.. zzz
we were made to find stuff like this.. and this is not the right one cuz the arrow faced the wrong driection..zzz

Randomness kicks in during lunch for some of us.. lol

TRITON 8 after the whole MMM.. *note.. this aint the whole OG.. 3 didn come.. lol

i shall update on the third day and lessons next time.. i gtg now..


not being able to enjoy this orientation with you by my side.. not being in the same institution.. not being able to share my joys and sorrows with you.. it pains me.. the feelings i have for you.. has plunged me into an emotional turmoil.. was it an outright rejection then? did i truly have a chance when u said i do?
i talk to you.. but never really telling u how i feel still..
i sms you.. but never abt anythin serious..
where is it i am heading down this path..
can u tell me? please?
to end it all or start it all for me n u..
lord help me..


(10:19 AM)

i've hit a dead-end.. everyone who made it to the 53rd intake and are in MJC have hit one.. here i am blogging. my letter of confirmation of my selection to the 53rd CLT intake staring back at me.. only 1 thing seperates me from the course.. i need to attain permission from my current principle.. to absent from school for a whole 2 weeks.. so that i may finish what i started and continue to lead my unit to further glory.. as their CLT.. or to any unit which i may be posted to..
infront of me stands a pliable wall.. made of hollow stone.. a blow from our fists will be enough to destroy it so we may continue our path.. mustering the strength will be easy.. but the courage to do so is hard.. durin that 2weeks will be the announcement of our PW groups and topics and training[what ever it is gonna train us in? don't know].. the multiple lectures and tutorials we will be missing.. the syllabus we have to catch up so we may not lag behind the rest..
to me.. its a sacrifice i am more than willing to take.. to don that coveted rank and above all to lead those who will follow to guide them so they may soar to greater heights.. so their unit may attain or MAINTAIN their Gold status..
there will be a briefing on 23march.. i am most likely to attend it.. to at least notify the IC of what will become of my application.. in my eyes.. i see only 2 future to it.. one is that i am willing but unable to attend the course due to certain obstacles.. or i will continue and the rest is self explanatory..
i truly hope i can attend the course.. but much more thinking is required.. maybe my principle had purpose for not letting us go.. i'm sure she does.. i just have to see it that way..
my fist nonetheless rest ready to punch a hole in that wall which obstructs me..

(11:26 AM)

i feel so shitty now.. she didn't get the call from MJC.. not even a stupid call to tell her whether or not she made it.. do they know how anxiously she waited for that call? how much fear she felt, how much pain she feels now.. sajc and tjc both sent sms or called all applicants be it successful or not.. why is it that mjc do not have the basic courtesy to do the same? its deja vu all over again.. the same feeling i felt when her JAE application failed to enter mjc.. this feeling of helplessness.. this tormenting feeling which wrecks my heart..
i know nothing i say or do now will help in anyway towards her appeal.. i can only offer words of empathy to try make her feel better.. somehow make it sound like not entering mjc aint all that bad.. or anyway to make her feel better.. it just pains me to see u like this.. suffering in the silence.. not wanting to share your pain with me. i hope u feel better after tonight.. u are going out with your sec sch friends. i dun want u to carry a sad face tml.. be happy.. cheer up k?
there is little to what i can do to help in this situation.. but even so..i wish u all the best from this juncture on.. i'm sure u will do great in tpjc.. mjc is a fool not to accept u..
be happy always k girl? smile more.. u dun look good with a frown or sad face.. =)

(7:40 PM)

So.. my life in MJC has already begun before i knew it.. time flew.. 07s04 is now merely a thing of the past.. whose footprints on its sandy beach has been preserved within my memory.. never to be erased.. how could it? it was the best time i had in my life.. better than that i had in sec sch.. i had nv yearned to go to sch so badly so much before.. but sadly its over.. and its time for me to move on and i am taking BCME once more in MJC.. unfortunately i could not do 4H2 in mjc as i did not offer pure science during O lvls.. lol.. well its life..
did i mention today is our day off cuz its staff retreat? one additional day to the term break.. =D. u ppl might be wondering why our orientation is so short.. well reason's simple enough.. we didn have orientation then. its scheduled to be held after the march holidays, meaning the past 2 days were admin prog.. which is well super boring cuz i dun really tink its necessary. thankful though.. cuz school ended at noon on the first day and 11 on thurs.. meaning i had a lot of free time to burn and chill with my friends.. played pool with louis kelvin and rezza on wed.. and thurs went back to TPJC halfway through the admin prog.. yea.. we pon.. so i went back with kevan, ke wei, guan jie, rebecca and erm.. a lot of ppl lah.. haha.. saw so many familiar faces and seniors who wanted to hit me cuz i came back wearing the mjc badge.. haha.. said my greetings to all i knew.. literally shoutin it out so as to get their attention and received loads of sms saying hi to me.. haha.. we played basketball for erm.. 2 hours soon after at around noon time so it was blazing hot..
came back to try out my newly bought MJC uniform and PE attire [2sets each] $100.. wtf..
those were the fun parts..


i'm still sad that she didn make it.. i know u told me to be happy i made it.. for your sake.. its hard u know.. i will try my very best.. if that is what makes u happy.. i will pray every day and night that your appeal make it through.. dun tell me its a slim chance.. it still means there is a chance.. and u will make it.. u deserve a place in this institution more than anyone.
i didn make it for KI there though i did during my stint in TPJC.. all becuz i didn score A2 for my eng.. i scored B3.. haiz..
broke my promise to my friend cuz i'm taking BCME instead of PCME..
Esther Lai disapproves of me going for the CLT cse though she herself sits on the NCC advisory committee.. bull shit..


(5:50 PM)

posting results just came out and i made it to MJC.. my formal CT was kind enough to bring his laptop and cable so we're able to check the posting results from the class during civics period.. elation filled my body as i jumped for joy.. 5others in my class made it there too, but there is a huge possibility that i will not be in the same class as them as i intend to take phy instead of bio.. i'm taking a really huge risk doing this and i hope it pays off..
my last day in TPJC was taken up by well.. skipping almost all tutorials and lectures with some tutorials by OUR request were canceled.. played basketball with the dragonboaters for nearly 2hours till the teacher chased us away as he needed the court for PE.. sigh.. lol.. happinness soon turned into sorrow and saddness..
she told me she wasn't able to make it to MJC though she met the cut off point of 10.. her friends who applied too were accepted. what bewilders and angers me is that they got nearly identical grades as her only that their languague was better.. she went off to MJC to appeal without me.. i wanted to accompany her but.. i didn't know what to do really.. i was in a mess.. a daze.. no matter what i said could do nothing to make her feel better.. she told me she cried.. didn feel like talking.. all i could do was stand there as i listened to her pour her sorrows on me.. my mind wasn't where its suppose to be after that.. even during the CG outing at seoul garden i spaced out at times.. thinkin abt wad happened to her.. i never felt so powerless before.. so weak.. so helpless..
even when i met up with the ex-tpjcians to go MJC together.. i tried as much as i could not to think abt it and should be happy that i made it.. she wanted me to be happy in MJC.. happy that i made it.. happy that it was my first choice.. happy cuz she justs wants me to. how could i really, i placed MJC cuz of her.. now that she isn't there, i felt a sense of lost. this was quickly replaced though with multiple other reasons which contributed to why i wanted to go MJC.. it helps but only to a certain extent.. even during the admin prog today at MJC, areas which had been briefed to me during PAE i spaced out time and time again.. blaming myself for not helping her more in her studies.. for not helping her get her A1 for humanities though she thanked me immensely for helping her attain an A2. that one point would have allowed her to enter MJC with 9 after bonus.. i feel so guilty.
i dun tink she is happy in TPJC now.. going through the orientation there once again.. she's probably still upset and disappointed that she didn't make it to MJC.. i pray that her appeal makes it.. she deserves a slot in MJC possibly more than me.. what can i do to help her feel better.. i really don't know.. but i will try my best to make her feel better.. even if it only helps a tiny bit.. it soothes me to know she feels better in any way..
if u are reading this.. cheer up k? i will always be there for u.. u just have to call..
