Today was E-Awards day. It was my first time attending to this event. Thanks to my great friend, Evonne, who gave me one ticket that allows me to stand very near the stage.

The reason why I wanted so badly to catch this year's event was due to my dearies, Kewei, ChaBanSheng and Serene will be performing. Since the last meetings we had with them, I very long never get to see them. Let alone to see them performing on stage often.

The whole concert was excellent except for some misunderstanding that leads to some quarrels which we managed to iron out things. Thanks to all the dearies and Evonne, for making my Saturday night so HAPPENING!!!

Today was a mark of Muffin-renes's first gathering with Princess Serene and one mystery guest.

In order to make this happened smoothly, Evonne, Kenneth and I had numerous of meetings up and discussions before we actually came up with the run-down and sent to XH for approval.

Though we are given not much time to actually hold a very successful one due to that Princess and XH need to go and attend Tanya's concert. So we were actually not having ample time for interacting.

Princess and XH arrived slightly later than the proposed time. Plus the songs selected time frame wasn't what we expected as we unable to predict which songs they will sing and what is the time taken for a songs.

Though we had some hiccups intervals, we managed to make it run smoothly in the end. We took some photos with Princess and had quality time spent with her.

From this experience, I learnt, we should have a backup plan so that we will be able to handle any hiccups when it is to come.

Today was my first day of the Orientation Day. The Orientation will be held till this Friday. I was very reluctant to go for the Orientation but since it was compulsory to attend, so I have to attend it till end.

Luckily it started at 9am, so I am able to actually reach school in time. First day of Orientation we came to know 3 OGLs who will be taking care of us, play games with us for these three days in Orientation.

Before going to the room for briefing, we were being grouped up into teams. I belongs to Team 16. We were briefed on what will we be encountering during our life in RP and successful stories of those who graduated from RP in SOH who is now holding high post in companies like RWS and some well-known hotels. This made me more interested to embarked my new chapter in RP.

We were asked to gathered in our teams before we set off to start the games and bonding. During the games, we also taught of some cheers that we will be using on the last day of the Orientation for the games.

We also did some introductions on ourselves and getting to know the rest of the members as we may be classmates for the first semesters or so on.

Bonding was a bit awkward initially, but thanks to the lively OGLs who broke the ice. I am looking forward for next day Orientation and excited to know what will be happening tomorrow.

We were all brief to wear black and no short shorts allowed or miniskirts allowed as we will be going to our specific classroom according to the list pasted on the wall. My class is W47C. Which means, it is located at W4 Level 7 Room C.

Today was the first day I will get to see my classmates for the first time. Though the actual fact was, not all turned up on time today and not all came for the Orientation today.

Initially I thought they are the real facilitators. After some introductions I realised, they are just OGLs from other schools. I was also suprised to know that, the whole class does not came from the same diploma course. Maybe is due to, our first semesters were learning all the same modules. When comes to 2nd year, we will be back to our own diploma studies and came to know our own classmates all over again.

In fact, we will change class every 6 months. So which means, first 6 months, I belong to W47C. Next 6 months, I will be in another class. Think by the end of Year 1, I will get to know almost whole SOH people.

After this warming up class, we were all back to our team for 2nd half of the day activities. Before that, we were all brief on why we cannot wear slippers to school and why we cannot smoke in the school.

When we all gathered around, we were given lunch after that we will be learning all the cheers and we actually competing among teams to decide which team will get to leave the hall first. Our team won and we got to leave first. I am so proud of the team-mates.

We are all asked to wear white tee tomorrow as we will be going outside of the comfort zone to the field as there was tug-of-war. We were also asked to bring any sun-block, caps or fans to enable us to keep cool. We were also asked to bring water bottles along in case of dehydrations.

Finally it was last day of the Orientation! But early in the morning, we need to practice cheer before we set off to the field to settle down and also watch the tug-of-war.

It was really a hot day. Luckily we were each given a bottle of drink. Our OGLs keep asking us to drink water. So concerning and worried we will faint in the hot sun.

Though SOH did not won any prize, but was very competitive though. After that, we went back to have our lunch and then back to learn cheers again.

As I have musical to catch, hence I left at 6pm plus instead of staying till end.

It was great time spent with them and we even exchange twitter and facebook accounts. I believe we will all become great friends in the end.

SOH=Schools Only Hope!!!!
