The Mysterious Brown Envelope in TAMPINES

Hello TAMPINES freshies!

Your darling seniors—Evadne, Walter, Job and Terence—braved some horrendous humidity in our one-night stint as a postman.

The package? The Mysterious Brown Envelope, jam-packed with loads of goodies and fresh out of the oven. And no, don’t worry it’s not going to be some white-powder scare.

Our round-Tampines tour yesterday was, well, interesting. Following the poor hit rate of among the Centralites on Tuesday, who did their rounds starting 9am in the morning and therefore waking up a few poor souls who were sleeping while missing the working crowd, we were slightly more optimistic of our chances. Going about in the evening, we were so optimistic that most would be back home from work or wherever else you might be!

And here’s a number crunch to sum things up:

• 38209 Cats spotted
• 948 Dogs spotted
• 203 Flights of steps climbed (ok fine we used the lifts most of the time)
• 12 Apartments visited
• 10 Parents met (rough estimate here)
• 6 Apartments along the street 21 and 23 stretch; you all will have loads of MRT company when term starts (and I happen to live around the area too :@)
• 4 Freshies who were overseas when we came knocking
• 3 Hours delivering, excluding dinner
• 2 Plates of chicken rice ordered
• 2 Parents who exclaimed how we “actually came all the way to send the packages”
• >1 Guy that The Serial Slapper claims to have slapped in his/her entire life

And....

ONE Very good-natured family whose parents actually wanted to invite us into the house for a drink (Thanks Mano your parents are awesomely sweet)

ONE Freshie whose address was incorrect, or at least, to whom the person who opened the door claimed that no such person was staying there. (Izzat Rusydi B Jufri, please contact any one of us if you happen to see this post)

ONE Freshie met [Thank you Cassandra who saved us from total annihilation]

ALL YOU PEOPLE REALLY KNOW HOW TO PARRTTYYY ON A WEDNESDAY NIGHT DON’T CHA!

In any case, we really really really really really really really hope that the package reaches your hands safely. So do SMS the number written on the envelope when you receive the pack so that we can have a peace of mind.

And if you’re wondering what’s this all about, it’s a WKWSCI tradition to hand-deliver FOC packages so that there’s a personal touch! We’re sweet that way. The best way to meet all of us?

6 TO 10 JULY 2009, WKWSCI FOC “A SONG FOR VIOLA”. It’s a date.

SIGN UP NOWWWWW.

XOXO,

Walter
