The Final Chapter...
and so the various faction elders get ready for the final battle against Agent Smith. they log into the matrix and go off in search for Agent Smith. Smith finally appears and the elders decide to him on 1 by 1. all the elders got totally trashed and one of them even really knocked her head into something. they finally decide to work together in a single combined attack and Link was even about to use the original version of norton anti-virus on Smith which would have deleted him once and for all(it didn't work the other time because the one they got at the pasar malaam was pirated.) when Lord Momo appeared and told them to stop whatever they were doing and return to Zion as Smith had infected many machines which were attacking Zion. they abandoned the mission and went back to Zion right away. they then fired nuclear missles at the machines that defeated them. (machines are destroyed when exposed to radiation? and won't the people of Zion suffer since the machines already reached Zion?) this calls for celebration and Lord Momo started talking and then stopped because he like bent over to vomit. (really. i guess he came to the orientation today even though he is sick. *sob* so noble... respect man.*thump chest* no wonder he's president of the student council.)

THE END

today is the last day of ZION, the nyjc j1 orientation. (until orientation 2 after JAE which i won't know if i'll be going yet.)

first, we had mass games and we played against Zelda. the first game we played was Quidditch, which is obviously based on HP. no brooms involved and the game doesn't end when the 2 snitches are found. the goalposts are 3 hula hoops tied to a pole and the snitches are flattened green ping pong balls hidden amongst the grass on the field where the game is played. we played and with lost like 0:100 or something because they got 2 goals and found one snitch which was worth 80 points. the second game we played was snatch. each team had a "home" area which had green balls of paper in them. there are snatchers who are to snatch one green ball at a time and put it into their own "home" and defenders, who are supposed to stop snatchers from doing so. the winner is determined by the team who has the most balls in their "home" by the end of timed game. i was a snatcher but the Zelda defenders chosen were all girls and they all held hands. i had no choice but to break through by knocking into their hands so that they would let go. then another teammate and i stayed in the "home" (snatchers are supposed to snatch only by entering the "home".) to act as decoy because all their girls would all focus on us so that they could tap us once we had to drop the ball and become immobilized for 20 seconds. so while i stayed there, my fellow snatchers would be able to sneak balls out without them noticing. well, i did have my fair share of bringing several balls into my group's "home" and also being tapped. once, one of the opposing defenders tapped me and i dropped the ball and didn't move and she picked my ball up (which she wasn't supposed to do as defenders are not allowed to touch the balls at all.) and placed it back into her "home". well, our group still won in the end. yay! the next game we played involved us sticking a coloured sash from our shorts. the object of the game is to pull the sash from your opponent. there are 6 blue sashes which denotes kings who can grab the sashes of kings, knights and hobbit and 15 red sashes which denotes knights who can grab the sashes of knights and hobbits and finally black sashes which represents hobbits who can only grab sashes of kings and other hobbits. whichever team with the most number of kings left at the end of the time limit wins. we used a decoy again but having a few of us surrounding a hobbit which led the other team into thinking we are protecting a king. we also won this game with 5 remaining kings to 3. the next game we played was crazy soccer which is soccer played with 4 goal posts and 2 balls. we managed thrash the other team. the last mass game we played was a baloon stepping game and we got completely wiped out.

after the games we had lunch during which i sat with some girls from my OG. after eating i signed up for businessweek. after we all have had lunch, we went up to hall to have a revison for the 2 dances we had learnt with Zelda and some councilors. after dancing for a few times, most of the people got tired and so momo asked for the best dancers from each of the 2 factions. since no one from our volunteered, hui shan and i decided to go up since we had almost perfected the dance that uses the music "summer sunshine" yesterday. (a bit shameless lar. but we don't mean that we are the best dancers in our faction, juz maybe the 2 with most initiative. haha.) we had no problem with "summer sunshine" but then they followed up with the other dance which i wasn't really sure about. so i made quite a few blunders. but i did get some recognition after dancing so i'm quite happy.

after the revison we had our final faction games in which all 4 factions took part together. each faction had their own base in which they must build a structure with empty metal cans. there are attackers who will attack another team's structure with newspaper balls. each faction is designated a specific faction to attack. zelda attacks ithor, ithor attacks osiris, osiris attacks nazgul and nazgul attacks zelda. there are defenders from each team who will prevent the attackers from attacking the structure. the team with the tallest structure at the end of the time limit wins. each team may rebuild their structure for up to 5 times by sending 2 defenders to rebuild in 20 seconds but they may only do this before the final 3 minutes. our faction decided to pose as another faction to trick the attackers from ithor but i don't think it really worked. and i was a defender and i think i got pretty rough defending. then i realised that i haven't been very gentlemanly or sportsmanlike today and felt pretty guilty.

we had buffet dinner and i ate with the girls again. after dinner is the disco where we had dance non-stop for like 2 and a half hours but time really flew. one of our OGL's, Yong En, suddenly became very hyper. ( he has been very quiet for the past 5 days) i had lots of fun and really enjoyed myself.

we have been sorted into our classes and sample lectures would take place for the whole of next week. i really look foward to monday and the things to come. oh ya, i'm going to shuyi's place tomorrow so we can see the ajc, nyjc and yjc dances which i think will be fun. it's time for me to go again. cya tomorrow. oyasumi nasai~
