The only rap tt cud be heard clearly and there was "groove"! Bayley's rap was quite funni haha... den there was house meeting and IHC games... It wud take too much time to describe all the games -.- so ya, we sorta did so-so onli... but we did our best!! And during the house meeting... hmmmx.. felt quite... spirited... unlike RI's buckley house meeting... i think everyone was quite high... overall we got 3rd... tt's betta than the top 5 in RI... aniwae that was the end of day 1... din go for OG dinner cuz had to go home...
Day 2:

Got paired up wif tang wei... din think much of it at first but den the practise turned out to be quite fun haha... probably becuz everyone was shou mang jiao luan... in the actual sense of the words... and den storyline and lunch again... after that it was station games... Quite fun also... we won the first 2, den lost the next ><... den 2 draws and 1 more loss zzz... nvm we will definitely do betta nxt time!! My OG realli rulez man!!

Day 3:
Went to the lodge also before leaving for the mph... den went to our classrooms and the onli pple i noe, as in like personally are only yujun and johnathan sim... the others seem friendly enuff thou... After that went back to the mph for dance prac for the 2nd half of the batch dance, quite funni again lolx... and den external activities!! 十字路口!! So cool... We were allocated to Chinatown, so we took train there... first checkpoint was ann siang hill or something like that... then we had to eat cabbage wif some funni sauce... there were 5 boxes labeled 1-5 but we rolled a six, so had to mix 3 of them... chose something that looked like garlic, another which looked like chilli and the other forgot wad... so everyone ate... and not actualli disgusting but omg super super salty!!! Zzz.. den we had to play this memory game, open 2 if it's the same one den take out tt game... like KiKo match in neopets haha... after that we had to link from lettuce to water, so it was lettuce -> egg yolk -> kway teow -> water... went to the food center near that place and brought our egg yolk + kway teow + our lunch... den next stop was at telok ayer park or something... ate our lunch there first b4 the activities... we had to drink water from styrofoam cups... with holes!!! After that had to cheer backwards... by syllabus... not too difficult... so had to link from water to super rings... water -> roti prata -> apples -> super rings... nxt checkpoint was somewhere in china town... took some time to look for it... went past the place but a tri-shaw rider directed us back haha... there the food challenge, we rolled the option of crushing packs of super ring den pouring it into water and drinking it... looks like carrot juice... taste like... juz water wif super rings to bite inside haha... den had to play the sing-the-banana game... duno wads the actual name for it... done that... den we had to link from super rings to micheal jackson... this funni drink sold in the RJ canteen... chinchow + soya bean milk... i think... so it was super rings -> sweets -> strawberry ice-cream -> micheal jackson! Some bought extra ice-cream and ate on the way to the mrt station haha... den when we were outside the mrt station michelle and berny had to eat fast fast haha... den we started walking real fast... to the train... cuz we knew we were one of the first to finish the race... den after we reached dhouby ghaut to change train everyone started running to the next train!!!! N we said "excuse me"s, "sorry"s and "thanks"s when we needed pple to clear a path for us... so we were polite enuff... and when we got to the nxt train the train was to come in 1minute... perfect timing! Here comes the cool part... we decided to run when we reached bishan mrt station... cuz we realli tot we cud be the zone winner.... so once we reached the station we realized some other OGs were there adi also... cudn't figure out which were from our zone but onli cud recognize mingxue's group, so once the train doors open everyone juz chiong up... pple around wud think we're crazy lolx... so we juz chiong!!!!!! Den at the bus stop by the mrt station mingxue's HH group decided to take 156 and den go thru RI... and cool enuff, in the confusion nobody from our OG boarded the bus, we juz ran!!! All the way to RJC... Tiring sia... finalli reached the canteen, michael jackson was sold out so 100+ was the replacement... or was it H2O... i forgot... Wenjun(MR)'s group was at the canteen at that time also.... i guess we didn't noe which zone they're from so it suddenly turned into a race wif i think 2 or 3 OGs chionging to the mph!!! Cuz we took the shortcut so had to jump over the bushes havent realli tried it b4... i guess many others haven either... but i think was juz too excited so juz sprinted and jumped over... han yu got scratched thou... den went up to the mph and took a photo wif the 7 colours of rainbow in it... haha... brilliant idea sia... used amanda's marker pens... and den when chay ling showed the photo to whoeva was in charge was getting so nervous... actualli was actualli thinking we got 2nd or 3rd and when they announced that we got first wah!!!! So cool!!! Then suddenly felt like all the adrenaline gone from my body... wah... so cool!! First!! Ch'Novo rulez!!! In the entire chaotic process saw yujun's group in the mph also... din noe they were from our zone also... but den realized they finished the race like 3~5 seconds after us... like us they were sweating like.... cuz they ran all the way from bradell mrt station to RJC!!!! Forgot to ask y... i guess becuz they were on the same train as mingxue's group so tot it wud be faster... and they were indeed faster!!! Mingxue(HH)'s group came in 3rd!! They were slowly strolling in and their OGL told us "We came in air-con comfort"~~~ Wadeva lor! We won!!!! When we were at the mrt station got quite worried that they wud win but i guess they had to gather at the bus stop first... so cool so cool!!!!! So we sat in the circle formation again to settle the costume for O'night... guna be quite cool... i think... After cooling down... went to practise the batch dance cuz we had lotsa time left... were supposed to reach rjc by 4.20, but we reached at 3.19!! I think we were the 3rd or 4th OG to reach RJC... so went to practise... and haha something funni happened... and den while waiting for the results they played the batch dance music... and OG juz stood up and practise lolx... in the middle of everyone sitting down... but it was fun haha! Den the annoucement of results... 2 BB OGs were zone winners!! 2 MR also and 1 BW... but for the overall results... BB FIRST!! Wah... so exciting... so after that debrief and den we were dismissed but there was guna be a BB dinner later... so we went to the mph juz chat and created a cheer haha... had dinner at the canteen... den went to the amphitheatre again... and i realized the results for BB in the EA was realli terrific... for bugis 2 BB OGs were first and second, den for chinatown us and bb04 were 1st and second.. and for overall results we were so much higher than second place! I juz hope we win the war games on monday!!!!! BB rulez man... never realli felt "buckley rulez" in RI... in RJ it juz somehow feels different... after that walked to the mrt station wif chay ling, michelle, mei yi and han yu... oya forgot to mention.. mei yi totalli lost her voice... and den realized chay ling was the onli person taking in the other direction haha... den on the train michelle alighted first at ang mo kio... n when the remaining 3 of us were chatting we started to whisper to mei yi also haha cuz she cud only whisper... not talk... XD A tiring day... went home watched the last episode of bai wan bao... while watching adi felt sleepy... so juz slept at 10...
