260708 Residential Weekend

260708 Residential Weekend

Yes, it was our 3rd weekend together, 2nd stay-in weekend @ NACLI.

It was also our 2nd cultural practice, the 1st one was kindly led my Hanzhi and Winnie who taught us the Multi-Racial Dance on Thursday, 24th June 2008 at Ping Yi Sec. From there the cultural comm could assess that the contingent will need loads of practices to master all the dance steps for the PDC and National Day on board. ;P

After the dance practices, we had a sharing session with SIS Board, followed by a sumptuous dinner at the Friendship Hall.

Oh yes, Grace managed to grab 30 tix for "The All-American Boys Chorus" at University Cultural Centre Hall, NUS. So straight after dinner, we car-poolllled to NUS for the performance. It was foreseeable that a few will fall asleep during the performance what with the tiring lenggang kangkung and the heavy meal!

It was there too the contingent saw the "first couple" amongst us...

But for those who managed to survive the temptation, it was worth every minute of the Boys' performance. The contingent, specifically the culture comm, managed to get some interesting ideas for our port of calls "3-minute stardom".

The men gladly called it a day close to 11 pm while the ladies had a late night rendezvous with SIS Grace. With snacks to keep them awake, they chatted till 2 am. Thanks Grace for the Girls-Only sharing session. I'm sure all of us appreciate it, and thanks Cecilia for bringing so much laughter to the session! ;>

The morning of 27th July, after a round of Ultimate Frisbee, we had our breakfast then proceeded to Friendship Hall. There, the PRM presented verbally the concept for the contingent booklet and also lined us up for the gangway formation and also the formal shoot formation.

We had two more talks i.e. Handling the Media with Ms I-Ling and a Heart-to-Heart sharing session with William Cheong, SIS President.

After lunch, we had another round of cultural practice and we also had our 1st port-of-call practice! Thanks to Winnie, Desmond and Tuty in assisting the cultural comm.
