Was hooked on Yengyong's iPod today during Marketing lecture. And so glad to find out she has the RJ batch song 2003 in the iPod! and our rain dance... Actually I have the whole collection but still~ listen to it with someone who had gone through the orientation with you is totally different! Such fond memories...
I can still vividly recall all those days, where the first day Terence was playing the name game and I said Tianxin the Terrible coz I couldn't think of other words starting wif T, so Terence took it for himself and gave me his the Talented. And Andrew the Angelic haha sick-skinned!
I remember being totally dazed and lost in my own world for the first day coz my mind was on other stuff. Didn't think anyone had noticed until Philip, after we got along, told me the first day I looked really distant~ haha. Observative Phil-di.
So I picked Andrew as my partner that first day playing the Husband and Wife game. And we remained as partners throughout the whole orientation. Terence and Yu Ting kept talking about 'breaking the barrier between guys and gals as we all came from single-sex schs'. So EVERYTHING must be done wif a guy-gal pair... Yengyong was paired up wif Philip and Germaine? Emm...can't remember alr...
There was a game that gals had to use our hair to transport water from the top of stand to the bottom...and I was totally soaked after that!
There was the dirty mud game and we emerged covered wif mud from head to toes!
There was the 'soapy slippery' water polo game and I suffered from minor scratches all over my body~
There was the song-learning session and I still know the part our OG supposed to sing is the second line of the School anthem.
Don't forget the mass dance which was way way better than the VJC one( sad to say...keke) Unbelievable. And I only remember the 5 points now... and the rain dance. The Dunman guy asked me to dance rain dance wif him but I quickly retreated to Andrew haha~ had alr developed some connection wif him ~ haha the only AC guy who walked ard sch in his singlet...
And then there were all the dinner sessions at PizzaHut and Swenson's...and before we even realized it it was the end of orientation...
That night we cheered out loud, sang our batch song and orientation songs. The Power Within. Was there fireworks? I can't recall~ There was a camp fire...and by the end of it all gals were in tears. Gals were hugging each other~~~ and Andrew suddenly walked up and asked me if he could give me a hug... sweet little hug...and Philip also...
And Terence you were the one who started all the tears! Oh Terence I couldn't hold tears when YOU the GUY cried so hard! Even Andrew was in tears... ha he so SNAG~ Although afterwards we thought about it it was quite stupid coz the next Monday we still came back and saw each other at our corner just like other days during orientation...
And then I made up my mind to transfer sch...almost got killed everyday I went to the corner...Philip and Germaine kept persuading me...and Andrew also started to think about keeping his AC tradition... So we two were the betrayer...Andrew at some point said to me that if I didn't leave he wouldn't do it either... but then I was way to stubborn to be swayed.
By the end of the 3rd month...it's pretty obvious that me and Andrew were not going to stay... Philip and Germaine were in tears that last day...and I remember the first day after March holiday when I reported to VJC, Philip msg me tt he missed me and the corner felt so empty wifout me n Andrew...I almost wanted to cry~ sigh sigh~ I had really enjoyed my days in RJ and my Aquilia OG. Bu then~ sorry my dears~~ I wish I hadn't disappointed you...
Power Within

Looking back at the years that so many have passed You suddenly realize how far you have come You have arrived at a brand new beginning A place where hopes and dreams dwell free
Pre-Chorus
You don't have to be afraid Cuz' we're here to guide your way Just put faith in us, faith in your hearts And we will light your way
Chorus
We will find our shining star If we hold on to our dreams Embrace each day with love and grace Experience life in your own special way For you are made for greater things than this
Verse 2
Here we are a Rafflesian family A place of joy and sweet harmony Where love and warmth fill each day You'll never be alone again
