Flashback

May 2, 2013.

Reached the campus at about 4pm, I was late for enrolment. 
Jiong Sheng and Jonathan were at the reception counter (of course I didn't know them yet), 
and Jiong Sheng was kind enough to take me to the A-Levels office, where I enrolled (*^_^*)

Joined OLE in the knick-of-time, apologised for being late and got put into the last group, 
with Edwina in front of me, and Shin Huey at my 11 o' clock, again,
I didn't know them yet.

Including myself, we were a group of 12,
led by fecis (I still have no idea how to spell this so... ==) Ming and Bernice. 
Bernice promised me supper that day for being the only one to remember her name...
Didn't happen .__.
Then came the embarrassing group cheer thing where the first thing I said to them was "gwiyomi" *facepalm*.
Tafara came sat next to us afterwards, asking what "gwiyomi" is.
Later I learned that he was president of INTIMA.

Dinner at Bubble Tea House.
We took down Ming and Bernice's number.
Bernice praised me, for being fast to catch up with her speed.
I left my purse, so I didn't eat anything then,
I joked that I was on diet and was just talking and talking:
Driving lessons and horoscopes.

Gathered in the sports hall afterwards, and played a game called "Beg, Borrow And Steal".
Wasn't that hard at all, but we lost. 
Got the Gangnam Style task as penalty,
wasn't really embarrassing for me,
I loved dancing, even if it was just some horse-riding move. 
囧 ——!

Sonam (whom I learned her name afterwards), mentioned something about some famous street.
...I got it (・Д・)ノ
That was the first time I learnt about that street.

They sang "Happy Birthday" to an ex-classmate of mine back in high school,
Jessica.

I spent my first night in the dorm that day.
I couldn't sleep at all.

May 3, 2013.

The 2nd day of OLE started at 9am (if I remembered correctly).
There was a long longgg longgggggggggggg briefing session. 
Started with the "First Impression" game where we went around writing stuff on people's backs.
It turned out alright, I guess. No one dissed me yet.
One person got a page full of "Sexy".
Christopher was his name, as I recall.

One of the worst moments would be the "Husband & Wife" game. 
Eye contact wasn't my thing.
Honestly kinda freaked me out. 
Didn't really like the idea of being in a circle and photographed at random.
Most awkward few minutes of my life.

The guys did striptease. 
Later, I found out that the one on the chair was my course mate. 
We call him Cas, the 195cm tall dude. ∑(゚Д゚)
Oh, and Surin (as I learned his name later) was legendary. LOL.

The girls did gwiyomi. 
Sonam led.

Best moment of OLE would be getting wet.
Loved being dowsed with water on hot days.
It was the first time I talked to Christopher, found that he's pretty nice. (⌒▽⌒)
I recall his phone ringing but couldn't answer,
and Jiong Sheng answered for him.
The latter took pictures of one person dowsing water onto the other.
Seemed like so much fun.  (*^_^*)

I may be off chronology here.
When was it that I saw Jonathan parkour-ing (learned the term "parkour" very very very much later) in the sports hall?
First instinct: ∑(゚Д゚)
And when was it did I saw Jiong Sheng tie his hair into what I call "palm tree hair"?
One word: Priceless (⌒▽⌒)

Dinner was at Maxim that day.
I ate this time and learned that Ming was a 95-liner,
which shocked me a lot considering he seems pretty mature.
Later in the month of May, I found out that he's younger than me ==.

The last game was to go around looking for OLE stickers.
We didn't find many but we didn't come in last.
Ming was psyched, I guess. (⌒▽⌒)

Returned to the sports hall, where we had this emotional talk.
People shared their stories, most of them needed translators.
The lights were off and "Kiss The Rain" was playing,
the atmosphere was just right.
Bernice, next to me, cried.
I cried, secretly.

Then it got really fun cause some guy's dad gave permission for his son to do Gangnam.
A group of them did it Waveya style (⌒▽⌒)

It was a 2 day OLE, and in 3 words:
"Short and Sweet".
