SECC ended more than 4 days ago.. and as promised here's a post on it.. though this should have come much earlier but the temptation to maple was much higher than blogging..
MY LAST SECC
Much as I wanted to make this one a smashing good one for myself.. there was some sort of regret lingering in the aftermath of the camp.. Maybe I should have not crashed as a freshie at all.. I should have been a senior-councillor and adopted an OG like meiqiang did.. yea probably I'd have enjoyed myself more.
Yes, my crashing stint failed totally. Haha.
I came late and tried to look like a blur cock. Thinking that most of these kids would be JC kids I thought that adopting the identity of would be foolproof. (haha yah it was a mix of Jeffry Thumbunanto cum Veron Chua here) Before reading on you have to admit it's one of the best anonymous identites to adopt right? I couldn't be serving army coz I totally lost touch.. Besides, being old at 23 years old would mean my world would have totally no similarity from theirs.. But oh well.. everything seemed to go wrong haha
Qijun (councillor):
"Hi so which Poly you from? Nanyang Poly ah?"
Me:
"Oh no Singapore Poly." *smiles*
Qijun:
"Oh *points at 2 pple* we have 2 OG-mates from Singapore Poly too!"
~diao~
One of the campers:
"So how old are you?"
Me:
"I'm 23. I'm born in 83. I went to work for 2 years before being accepted into NUS."
Camper:
"Means you are the same age as Rodney la *points to the 'fellow' Singapore Poly camper* He's 83 also."
~diao~
Rodney (The SP guy):
"So what course are you studyin in NUS?"
Me:
"Pharmaceutical Science."
Rodney:
"Eh? Sure or not? You managed to get a place in that one? Very competitive right? Did you apply by website? Coz I'm sure if apply by website there isn't the option of choosing Pharmacy for Poly students."
Me:
"Oh.. I er.. had to write in to the Dean to let me take the course. I couldn't stand Chem Engine la.."
Rodney:
"Whoa that means your results must be damn good la? How many As you get? How many points? 30?"
Me:
"Haha so long ago don't say already la."
(I don't even know what the poly system of counting points is!!)
Rodney:
"Say leh say leh? Whoa must be really very good!"
Me:
*keeps quiet and smiles*
~diao~
Another camper Sam:
"Oh you're Indonesian? Means you never serve army la?"
Me:
"No. I was working the past 2 years."
Sam:
"Issit? You mean they allow you to work? You are a foreigner wad...?"
Me:
"Er.. yah I applied for work permit."
~diao~
And of course there were the hordes of Shearites who couldn't resist talking to me..
Andre (from Block B, outside Fong Seng):
"Hey chio later you can take my car back, I drove here."
One of the camper girls:
"How did you know him?"
Me:
"Er.. Seconday School classmate."
~diao~
Jackson (on the breakfast table, and I was sure I reminded him I was a camper the night before):
"HEY CHIO!"
Me:
*Kept quiet and hopes he will go away.*
(I introduced myself as Clement instead of Chio)
~diao~
Ruoling:
"CHIO CHIO CHIO CHIO CHIO CHIO CHIO CHIO CHIO!"
Me:
*SMSes her that I'm crashing as camper*
~diao~
It was the Sentosa day when I couldn't resist the temptation of declaring my identity.. I mean.. I was stuck playing boring ol' Dog-and-Bone with the campers when Weijie and the rest of the gang were running around ponding pple. How much I wanted to run an join them but at least I decided to hold on to my identity till the end of Beach games. After all.. after the night before I was sure some of the OG were already suspecting my dubious identity haha.
Yes, I declared myself during Lunchtime.
Taught them a makan cheer to make up for cheating them hurhur.
So the rest of SECC was spent with the SWOC councillors gang.. partly coz of my laziness I didn't join the freshies.. but mostly coz it's so much more fun going round sentosa with them.. and yea we played as the 5th group in the Amazing race.. solved the puzzles.. gave the station masters a whole lot of trouble and dug out 245 bonus points!
Not like it really mattered.. hahaaa
Check out photos here!

That was the sentosa day.. the rest of SECC was just weird.. for me.. for us seniors. While on sentosa day a lot of seniors like Summer, Lawrence, Junlong bla bla came back the next few days were just the few of us wandering around like lost souls.. finding people to entertain us or simply finding games to play. We went to west coast park not knowing what to do.. Worse still the misunderstanding between Jianhui and the rest of the gang made the whole mood sucky.. and we went to Cineleisure to chill out instead.
At least we came back for finale night.. At least there was the Cheer Marathon which gave us our much-needed fun..
So SECC ended like it never happened.. at least for me.. I didn't manage to know my OG very well.. though they still asked me out for their OG outing and stuff but the feeling was still weird coz I didn't go through everything with them.. There wasn't the anticipation of having new blockmates to look forward to coz I know I will be choosing pple from other OGs as well.. people whom I am totally not familiar with.. SECC, to me, was more like taking a 3 day break from work to stay in hall, to hang out with fellow Shearites again after so long.
Which, come to think of it, was a good thing.
STAYING IN BLOCK B LEVEL 6
This was a saga I had to pen down haha.. terribly interesting.
Yes, I stayed in Block B level 6 during the 1st 2 days of SECC.. which is a girls level.. which didn't really matter coz my neighbours were Wendy.. Christina.. Jeannie.. Yingeng.. none who would scream and freak out of a guy stayin in their level. This residence was, of course, secret.
Until the 2nd day morning when I opened the door only to see the Block B Auntie outside. And she immediately asked..
"你住这边啊? "
"没有,是我朋友住这边。" (duh.. it was a girls level)
"那这间房呢?有人住吗?" as she pointed the to the adjacent room, which was WH's, and she was in CT's room at that time.
"有,有。我朋友咯。"
"是不是这个人?" and she showed me a list of names and the room which was supposed to occupy the room was another name. But I was sure WH booked that room.
"哦,不是。我们昨天刚刚注册,可能还没有update吧。"
And at that moment, Weijie who was staying opposite 'WHs Room' opened the door. I tried to shoo him back into the room but Auntie had realised and turned around.
"那你leh?你住这边meh?" I could tell Auntie was getting a bit confused now.
"哦,对。因为有camp嘛.." Weijie answered.. he was still half-asleep with a towel over his head.. though it was a dumb answer coz it was a Girls' level.. but oh well Auntie didnt realise so i kept quiet.
"好好,我去check。因为如果你们不是住这边你们就要搬走。"
AND I PACKED UP MY STUFF WITH THE FASTEST SPEED I COULD AND RAN TO WENDY'S ROOM, locked the door and me and weijie (and angie who was already inside) made no noise inside.
Haha.. so when Block B Auntie came up with Valli to see the empty room she was kinda furious.. like kinda cheated like that.. and made her stupid in front of Valli coz she told valli someone was staying in the room when it appeared to be empty.
And she complained and complained and complained.. WH came down with CT to explain.. Jeyee unexpectedly came down and got embroiled in the complain session.. Block A auntie her good friend was around.. and of course Ruoling pretended to "hear the commotion from level 5" and came up to settle the matter.. haha.. check out this photo...

Through the keyhole.. Block B auntie.. WH.. Ruoling.. and hidden Jeyee.. CT.. Blk A Auntie.. haha 
COBH
Seeing how packed the hall calender would be once school reopens made me realise how much I'd be missing hall once I go for SEP.. I'd be missing most of SWOC coz of Rag I suppose.. I'd prob bum around durin IBG but can't play much.. see the JCRC step up.. then I'll fly off le.. I'll miss Buaya Week which I wish I could play...
Even the day after SECC when I was dozin off at work I kept on thinking of hall life.. of SECC during freshie days.. of Year 1.. of bring a councillor.. my tour as Block Head.. Though if I stay hall for 1 more year it'll be the same events repeating but it's te people that matters.. I guess I would wanna enjoy a life as a responsibility-free Shearite just taking part in hall activities..
Maybe I should come back in Year 4.
Sigh.. for now.. I just hope SEP would be worth the miss in hall.. in hwachong events.. in the friends left back behind here...
Oh well..
To end off this post here's a video for all to enjoy.. something habits that Mafbrothers cannot change.. haha
