today is my 1st day of school. we were supposed to gather at nanyang auditorium for the welcome freshman ceremony. adelene & i met belle in front of the auditorium and entered. we were given a door-gift, which is a black sling bag that includes a NTU organiser, a notepad, a lightstick and a brochure that tells us the upcoming morning programmes. soon we settled down and waited for the ceremony to start. firstly we were introduced to the 19 committee members of the school, followed by talks given by some of the members. then we were supposed to wear the dark blue robe placed on the seats while taking the pledge. the robe is too big for me even though the size is small. we also had a lightup session where the first row would light up their lightstick first then the second row would light up 3sec later and so on. after that, there were a short skit by our seniors and a performance by the choir. ade, belle & i took a few pics with our robes on. at around 11am, the whole ceremony ended. we met up with yongzhen and went for our refreshment. after the refreshment, we went to main lecture threater to get sth and went to student serivce centre to seek help. then we went on to yongzhen's hostel which is at blk 8. it is a long walking journey there. my legs almost broke as i was wearing heels. i guess i have chosen the wrong type of shoes! initially ade & i wanted to watch the movie "bug me not" but in the end, we didn't go as zhen didn't want to watch. eventually we went to jurong point coffeebean for a drink and we chatted a lot of things on our school life and friends we have met. soon we parted as ade needed to go home early. overall it was a fine day. however, now i'm facing 2 problems: (1) the study loan & (2) what minors should i take... i have sent a mail to helpdesk to seek their help on the study loan. i hope that they can reply me asap. i'm waiting...
