Alright, fellows SPYs... Finally, the new look is almost up and we can start blogging! It's almost ready, will tweak the html to change a couple of things and remove the "sample" photo above to make space for our more inclusive contingent photo. Pardon that, couldn't get gmail to download the group photos.
The start of August brought us a weekend (2-3 Aug) of loads of physical activities. Unlike previous residential weekends, 2-3 Aug was packed with line-dancing, tchuckball (hahah... don't know how to spell this), more dancing, more games, dragon-boating and just 1 presentation!
This was also the first week, our newly elected YL, AYL and DYL took charge and of course, we'll just have to introduce them... later with the photos!!
We started the day with a game of "Have you ever...?" while waiting for our dance practice to hilarious!!! Now, we know the some of the "deepest" secret like ______ on the MRT platform or _____ in the cupboard. At 2.30pm, we had session of line dancing with Helen and Allen, and boy, how our AYL, Winnie breezed throught THAT- the Cha-cha with 4-walls turns... And we thought the steps for the second was easy! Front, Point, Point, Back, Point, Point, Side, Point, Kick... Till we heard the song (Mickey by Toni Basil). Then we changed our minds, but all of us a great time dancing our feets away... Plus our YL, Rezal, received quite a number of attentions with his moves. Wonder they've caught it on video and put it up on Youtube...

After the dances, we learned thuckball (Erm, still don't know how to spell it, with a little permutation, I might get it right... Hahah). It's confusingly simple game and it took us awhile to get the hang of getting the ball bouncing the "spring board" out of the circle. Fun, that is!!
Dinner was a simple chicken rice with loads of laughter... Of course, we need to brush up all our dining ettiquette with our very own J. Lee (SIS Board Member, ah). Another dance session was next with some cool but simple moves... Throw it with the music, we all forgot our dance steps. My sister, Fitri, came and blew us away and we pointed out Winnie and Qiao Er to remember the dance and recap with us.
One the highlight of the day was our very own sharing session of 5 milestones each of us felt are important. It definitely brought the contingent closer and helped us understand each other better. We oooo-ed, aaaa-ed and almost teared ... heartfelt stories about each other. It ironic how we are having presentations and discussion to know ASEAN and Japan yet, we didn't had time to really bond and know the PY sitting next us. It showed that we are in this ship together for a long run (minimum 3 years, guys!!) and not just for fast and furious impact. This would pave away for a more meaningful friendship.
So guys... we've got a few weeks more together... and let's get the spirit up till Dec!! 2nd part coming soon... after I've gotten the photos up... You don't think I would blog without any photos right? In meantime... enjoy the snippets that PR&M Peeps will share!!
