ARCANE 2014/Sea Regatta

This past week has been incredibly exhilarating and it sure reassured me that I've made the right decision to come to vj :-) I can't remember what exactly happened on each of the days (especially at the start of the week) but I certainly enjoyed myself tremendously hehe

One of my OGMs had a watch that could be connected to his phone and he could snap a picture just by clicking a button on his watch!!! And Nurul didn't know so we decided to trick her and tell her that it's an app in the phone called instawink whereby you'll have to wink and the phone will automatically snap a picture HAHAHAHA. She's super naive so she kept on searching for the app & we even had to make up lies on the spot (we even told her it's only available in the US store). It lasted for a good few hours before we got exposed by accident hahahaha sigh :')

We had wet games on Monday which was super fun despite us being soaking wet & super dirty at the end of the day!! I got a few giant bruises by the end of the day and I have no idea why.

Headed to Serangoon NEX for another OG dinner with Arvia 4 and we found a perfect spot to chill :-) Had a great chat + shared stories about our lives! Louis came to join us shortly after :) The ride back home was terribly long tho :(

We were separated into our classes on Tuesday morning and it was super awkward because everyone was so shy and quiet! :( there was constance thankfully and we tried to break the ice with the class! we were reunited with our OGs later in the afternoon for mass dance which was what I've been looking forward to since the day started!! :D

And the best part came, FI(RED)UP EVENING!!!!! Everyone was so high, cheering, screaming, jumping around, fist pumping in the air, singing our hearts out, dancing like mad etc. it was like a legit concert but in our school hall HAHAHAHA super unforgettable night!! :D and also.....
ARVIA WAS CROWNED THE WINNER FOR ARCANE 2014 WOOOOOOO!!!!!!! :D I'm so so so so so proud to be part of arvia!

Everyone was so reluctant to leave when the event ended :-( plus we weren't allowed to have OG dinners since lessons start the next day!
Took a few pictures & I only managed to take a few solo shots with my OGMs because the rest left :-(

Here's to one of the closest friend I've made through orientation- Debbie :* my first ever mixed-blood friend HAHA

Lessons started the next day, we had lectures & tutorials and what nots! Had CCA fair after school and I decided to go for the dance auditions with Jacelyn and Roshini despite knowing that I have hardly any chance of getting in hehe. I've NEVER EVER danced contemporary/hip hop before so it was a really good experience despite me flopping around HAHAHA no regrets :D we had a full day of lessons on Thursday as well and our class did a little of bonding during our breaks :)

Ok skip the boring parts, Friday was another amazing day!! P.s. It was also Valentine's day :) stayed up the night before to make some cards for my OG mates + my classmates! Bought chocolates for all of them as well & I really hope they liked them even though it's a really small gift :)

Hehe makes me really happy when I see the smiles on their faces when they received 'em :-)

My day started off well, with a surprise right at my doorstep (literally!!!!) :') Cheryl & Tjinyang left a gift at my doorstep early in the morning and it came by so unexpectedly!! IM SO SO THANKFUL FOR THEM, IT REALLY MADE MY ENTIRE DAY. I love you guys so much (if you're reading this) :* I hardly receive gifts and it made me really happy!! :))

We didn't have lessons on Friday because it was SEA REGATTA! :D the whole school walked to East Coast Park, the J1s had sea regatta while the J2s had their class picnic :) played a few games and the class is really much more bonded now :) go S36!

Decided to head home to bathe afterwards before heading out to meet arvia 4! We were supposed to meet at 3 but everyone was late HAHA. We had our late lunch/early dinner at Pizza Hut and Sean told us the cutest story ever *.*

Some of them went home afterwards while the rest of us took the train down to suntec city for the mass dance at the fountain of wealth!!! The rest of the school was already there when we reached & we spent the rest of the night dancing to loud music with the rest of the school (VJ-clubbing HAHAHAHA) Everyone was super high again, jumping around, running past high-fiving everyone & there were guys giving free hugs HAHA It was such a fun night, indescribable night actually, you won't know how great it is unless you were there!!!!

SEAN- hi sean!!!!! :D thanks for being such a wonderful OGL as well! Sorry for always bullying and teasing you but do know that we love you :'D you're so so so cute and fun-sized! Thanks for telling us things that you've never told anyone else at Pizza Hut! Hehe I'll never get tired of your story :) you've been such a lovely senior of ours that we'll never forget!

20140216-013026.jpg
NURUL- ahh you're so naive but cute in that way! HAHA we really enjoyed pranking you that day ;) #instawink you're such a lovely person to give hugs too! We're so thankful to have such an incredible OGL like you, arvia 4 will honestly not be the same without anyone of you OGLs!! :') thanks for being so nice to everyone of us, and for bringing us together as a group. We love you!! :*

Ahh looking back, I'm indeed blessed to have been put in this group with the best OG mates you can ever ask for :) arvia 4 has been nothing but super special to me- they're the first few people I met here in VJ and I'll definitely treasure the times I spent with them :) I was initially very pulled back by the fact that I hardly know anyone in VJ but I'm glad I managed to meet such lovely people, I hope our friendship will last, and may our spirit never die.

ARCANE 2014 IS FREAKING AMAZING

Such a long post.. Thank you if you read all the way!! :)
