bocelli Speaks!!! EP5

hello freshies! (yes this post is meant for you)

things to take note before you come for camp! (no this isn't some dry bring more underwear check your temperature post, although they are also both VERY important right now haha)

1. KEEP AN OPEN MIND.

now this is very very important you know you will tekan a lot right? come on take it in your stride. whatever damn unglam/stupid/ridiculous things you do, you do it WITH your ogs. so it's 28 times as unglamorous/less unglamorous whichever way you want to see it (: (oh btw since i know the number that means the freshies lists in the ogs are OUT i'm holding mine now fellow bocellis-to-be!) just come and HAVE FUN. do the things in the name of fun, and hey, 10 months later you'll really miss doing such rubbish. don't act pai-seh for the sake of not looking overly enthu la please.

2. DON'T GET PISSED AT THE SENIORS

cos we really heart all of you loads you know all of us have been putting in truckloads of effort to make this camp really really good. we won't do it if we didn't love you all! so whatever we do, we do again, in the name of fun! don't come and kill us. (ok this is to protect myself from potential attacks by tired/irate freshies) at least i don't think you all will be getting the raw egg in underpants treatment like pedro got last year. so you can be rest assured (:

3. MAKE NEW FRIENDS.

i cannot stress this enough! seriously, you're here to GET TO KNOW PEOPLE. even though you may come in with people you know from your school/church/workplace whatever, please, don't keep hanging out together! get to know the rest of your og, and get to know people from different OGs as well (: they'll be with you for at least four years, some for the rest of you lives. i know i came out with lots of great friends who make life much much easier in CS for me. you need to know your cohort, they're the ones you partner up with for obscure modules you know no one in for all the projects/filmings/newspaper articles (trust me, we're in CS. we have plenty of those)

4. DON'T BRING PRADA/LEVI'S/FOREVER 21

leave those at home. i threw away shirts after FOC. don't blame us if you have to throw that gorgeous top from topshop away after! eh seriously, it's the only time the guys can appear in ugly singlets, army singlets, shorts and get away with it without the girls griping at them, and the only time you girls can appear in FBTS and floppy shirts and still be deemed human.

(ps, you DID know that CS has a reputation for having the best dressers in NTU right? it's time to go shopping!)

5. TUCK THOSE PHONES AWAY.

here we are trying to rah rah you guys up and there you are typing away furiously to your girlfriends and boyfriends. NUH UH. don't even think about it. and come to think of it, i think we're dangerously close to water all the time *evil smile* you don't want to find your spanking new iphone dripping wet when you're dunked.

6. KNOW THAT WE CARE

well actually we just want to know all about your girl/boyfriend issues. please do tell us ALL about them. you know we are very very concerned about ALL of you (: we are all stalkarazzis who take very much pride in CS stalker culture. so don't try to hide, whoever you are (: (hint, we've all already started stalking all of you. you wouldn't want to know how and how frequent hoho)

7. (for guys) BE CHIVALROUS PLEASE

you can't expect the girls to keep carrying heavy objects, or collect the food for the ENTIRE OG right? (ok i think we ogls will do that more). but hey, offer a helping hand. charm the girls at the same time. but just so you know, there's WAY stiffer competition this year. we actually have about 40% guys. my og was 20 girls to 5 guys O.o so if you wanna jio some fellow freshie, please be proactive (:

8. DRINK RED BULL. AND PI PA GAO.

we want you to lose your voices. CHEERING. so we'll probably have some on hand too. come on, show your powers at coming up, and DOING the cheers! outdo us seniors please (: and red bull? comes in handy when you're all zapped out. i managed to survive without it last year, but partner got a 24 pack just in case all you fellow bocellis need them.

ok enough. i am very very tired. JUST COME WITH AN AWESOMETASTIC ATTITUDE, AND BE READY TO KICK SOME ASS!

and if you have the great fortune of being in the ultimate OG with pedro and i, ALL THE BETTER (:

WE ARE FIVE DAYS AWAY!!!!
