NUS Open House!

Ookie...Open house day 1 came went by me. So fast sia...and I could not do a status report from inside the MPSH 5 'cos there was NO CONNECTION! Damnit. Super dulan la.

But other than spilling out expletives here, I must say that being the first time doing an Open House (yes the previous time I was down with Chicken Pox), it was an eye-opener. People who came for the OH were from different levels - JC 2 kids, NSFs, students applying for university (yea this is the group we're looking out for!) - but we also see Sec 4 kids (wtf?!) and students with their parents! Hmms...well dealing with the latter was so much easier...Haha.

Met all different types of people today, some were nice and listened to your talk despite the heavy metal music from the stage and blasting of radio by the RadioPulze people, while others asked questions and we were able to give them some thoughts and an occasional description of where we had actually traveled before. Experience on treks do count :)

Of course, there were those who were stuck up and ignored your flyers, or look at you incredulously as though you're an alien from outer space. Oh mans, spare me the agony of talking by saying that you're not interested, or be nicer. Yea. That's what happened to some of us.

But overall the turn out was pretty good despite the apparent 1-day Open House NTU is doing. Managed to get a decent number of people who placed their names down for our FOC mailing list, so it's good for us! Good start to the Open House!

Moreover, we also got queries regarding our diving trips and trekking trips, and I think that's good despite our focus for the OH - to gather more people interested in our FOC. One small step at a time...

After packing up with Geoks and Hwibee, we went for dinner at Clementi's Botak Jones! Din know where BJ was, and HB brought the 2 of us there. While the 2 girls tried out the Double Botak, I tried their Fish n Chips and it was great! Hmms...nice food, but it seemed too big a portion for a person...gotta share it! The fish was tasty and smooth, and the chips were slightly spicy, nice!

Saw Jiaxing and Elaine at BJ too! What a coincidence! The Tiny-Sandking combo which I always kenna. lol.

Gonna rest for tomorrow's X-Physique! Nites!
