Thursday was the first day of school in Yishun Junior College (YJC). Growing up in neighborhood schools, coming to yet another neighborhood school is of course something common for me. Of course there are people around saying that YJC may not be the most ideal school for one to be in, but ultimately it's still for you to judge on your own.
Luckily, I had few friends who had entered the same school as I am, from both primary and secondary school. This made me feel that I am not alone in this whole new environment. Since school has just started, it was just orientation. So we were split into our orientation groups (OG) by our birth dates ! (: Yeahhhh, JULY babies FTW! 😁😁
The people in OG18 both the OGLs and OG mates are all so friendly! They made me felt so welcomed to YJC. Moreover they made the environment in YJC so warm and family-liked.
At the same time I heard from some friends that the other JCs were having talk the whole day while here I am, playing games during orientation. Also, others orientation lasted for 3-4 days while in YJC, orientation would last for 7 days ! Isn't YJC just so cool on their own? 😊
Co-incidentally, in my OG I had a friend from the same school as I am, and also a goodfriend's brother! Singapore is such a small place to be in, don't you think so?
So day 1 went smoothly but we were still slightly awkward with one another. However by the second day, I could feel the bonds between us growing stronger as the time passes!
We played games together as a team, allowing us to understand one another better and learning team spirit ! 😊
On the first day, we learnt cheers. And on the second day, we learnt dance ! It wasn't just a usual dance but a dance which requires a partner of the opposite sex ! I could practically say it was my first dance, but whatever, it's fun that matters ! ✌ The dance was quite funny have different weird moves but well, the process of learning was enjoyable. Honestly, I think I've forgotten what the dance was like by now. HAHAH. 😝
And here we are cam waring while waiting for other groups to assemble after the Amazing race which was held within the school compound. Guess what, OG18 came in 1st place ! 😁😁
On the whole, the first 2 days were fun and enjoyable and I hope the remaining days of orientation to come would be more exciting and memorable! 😁
