Engin O Week ended! I couldn't join last year's, but it did seem that this year's was better. Weijie definitely made a powerful emcee throughout the week and that was probably an important contributing factor.
Although I didn't really think the games in the programmes were fantastic, but the 'Engin got Talent' segment was good, especially the magic performance that stunned everyone with open jaws. 'Engin Race' was only fun when we decided to take embarrasing photos in town area, like the Algorithm March, and the hundreds of camwhoring with Ronald McDonald's/statues/etc.
I especially loved the 'Finale Night', when almost everyone donned their school uniforms. I had wanted to wear the DHS uniform, but I had overgrown the shirt, which had also turned yellow. You can't expect how much camwhoring there was before and after the Finale.. All kinds of formal/informal/geek-y/delinquent shots--so fun, considering it was most probably the last time we would all wear uniforms together in a setting. Then the calls for different JCs to take photos were fun, because of the incessant JC cheers and college anthems that resonated under the roofs of the PGP multi-purpose hall. Haven't heard such a loud 'TJ cheer' and the 'Thunderation' cheer for quite some time.
On our own, we Engin Camp Comm had fun taking up 2 OGs in Geek House. We had fun preparing for the mascots before the O week, and of course, during the week too. OH yes, we climbed rooftops! Plus the Lamian-xiaolongbao extreme-fied versions with extreme-fied forfeit threats! It was all so great that when the week ended, I started to lament about when would be the next time we could all have such fun again. =(
I also realised there were very respectable people during O week too. Take Gwen for example, she did so much for Engin--not just being in Oweek comm and coming up with the mass dance, but also playing the lead role in the Engin Rag dance performance. The thing is, she's a true blue FASS student! But really, come to think of it, having someone outside Engin to be so actively involved in Rag, just put the rest of us in great shame.
Rag is always one of the NUS events that I look forward to, probably because it is the event that best captures the vibrant culture in the university, in a competitive nature. I love to see how all the hard work put in by all the faculties and halls pay off, in the form of spectacular floats and unimaginable cheerleading dances. They were all so cool. Rag is a unique culture. That is why it ought to be continued. Yes, even Engin Rag, at all costs.
We have to tell everyone that: We are from (*clap) En (*clap) Gin (*clapclap)!
