Hey!

As we celebrate BB's steady climb to the top, here's our next featured OG!

BB03 - O'ink
OGLS: Rebecca Hoe, Nguyen Duy Tri, Toh Yi Long






Message from the OGLs:

HEY OINKIES!

Feels like forever since Orientation ended, but we're super glad to see your pretty faces sitting together every morning at the 'Ome (: Even though JC life gets tougher by the day, the bonds that we have made will always be stronger, and you can always count on each other to be there for you each morning (: And even during class time, it's awesome that we get to call out to each other across corridors!

It's so amazing that you've managed to come so far, but we had no doubt you guys were able to make it through Orientation stronger than ever! From the very first night when you guys really put in the effort to get to know the rest of your OGmates, both guys and girls :O till the last where you stayed to super late just to savour the last minutes of Orientation for a little bit longer. The late nights talking tonnes of crap over dinner at expensive-but-air-conditioned Food Junction, trekking around Singapore during EA with barely a break in between for lunch, rushing here and there just so you could get more points for the OG, singing tunelessly in the RI canteen while cutting ears and twisting tails, playing bridge endlessly almost all over the place, cleaning pink spray paint off the floor of the RI canteen… There's countless of ridiculous yet fabulously fun things that we did that we hope we'll never ever forget, and the same goes for you!

Thanks so much for being the best, most splendid and superrrr OG we could have ever asked for! Thanks for being so enthusiastic about everything, putting in so much effort for EA, dance, costumes, Valentine's day, people's birthdays, super lengthy mass convos… the list goes on and on, and it's all the tiny little things that you guys do that make us awfully happy to have the opportunity to be your OGLs! We love you guys to bits and pieces!

As Orientation becomes but a distant memory (which will be in the distant future, we hope), remember to keep our OG photo in your wallet and the rest of the photos on your computer so that whenever you get lonely and nostalgic, you can just whip them out and stare at our gorgeous faces. The stresses of school life can start piling up pretty quickly, but BE STRONG and just O'ink at any obstacles you may encounter! And remember, we will always be there for you, no matter what.

Forever your loving OGLs,
Trioink, Yioink and Boink

Hey BB-ians!

While all of you might be frantically signing up for IHCs to help our awesome house win this year, the OGs are still being featured every (other) day at least! So do still look out for messages from your OGLs!

But before this, please read this very important announcement!! As you should know already, BB CIP is going to be on the 21st Feb 8am-12pm, so you MUSTTTT keep that date free and go greeeeen, especially if you have paid $10 during Orientation because it includes the CIP as well! So its going to be your loss if you dont attend!! I'll probably be posting up photos of our BB CIP dry run so that you all can have a sneak peak on what's happening on the 21st! :D

Okay! So now, here's presenting...

BB12 – O’hnowe’verunoutofOGnames!
OGLs: Nicolas Sambor, Dylan Lee, Vanessa Chui









Message from the OGLs:

Dylan!:
HEY HEY YOU YOU BB12 I LOVE YOU <3

Haha, omg, it totally rhymes to avril lavignes girlfriend! Try singing it (:

Anyway, hello BB12, your hyperactive and big-mouthed OGL, Dylan speaking! Haha, I know I’ve probably already blogged about this on our lovely OG blog, but it’s alright, I can say it all again cause O’hno we’re totally awesome yo.

Orientation has been a blast with you guys, and I’ve only really noticed it after it all ended (because I was so really tired during Orientation). You guys were a really sweet bunch of OGLings that never failed to laugh at my quirky comments and cold jokes, and were always so ready to scream and shout and joke and do whatever nonsense we told you guys to do. I loved the fact that you guys were so spontaneous about your costumes, and helped me gel horns onto my hair ( which I took like three days of constant shampoo-ing to get rid of) ; loved the fact that you guys were so thoughtful in your gifts to us ; loved the fact that you guys really left pleasant memories with me, and that I smile whenever I think of the dumb stuff you guys did during Orientation. Aiyah, I just love the fact that I’m the OGL for BB12, and because of you guys, I have never regretted being a part of Orientation.

Orientation’s over, and life is starting to be like a vacuum cleaner for me and all the other J2s,but I know BB12 will still continue to have the fun and laughter that it had during Orientation, maybe even MORE! So don’t forget to ring us up whenever you guys are having a gathering or a outing or playing that game Huiyao introduced to us alright?

Much love, Dylan!

Vanessa!:
Hi BB12! ♥

So it’s around 1 week since orientation passed, I hope all of you are enjoying school and having fun with your classmates! : ) And I think it’s really great that you guys are still so bonded and enthusiastic ♥, having so many lunches/meetings/games/crazy mass conversations from which your OGLs always have to leave because they have to study etc haha! And you guys even have a blog (www.sayohno.blogspot.com) ♥♥♥

Anyway, I would just like to say a big thank you to each of you: Ashish, Bernard, Charlotte, Christabel, Daniel, Delaney, Ellyn, Hongbo, Hongfei, Hongxuan, Huiyao, Jaclyn, Joel, Kristabella, Melanie, Moses, Rachel, Roy, Shide, Yuting ♥ BB12 wouldn’t be the same without any one of you, really! You guys have been fabulous throughout the whole of orientation, always looking out for each other, being so enthusiastic about station games, war games, song&dance (!!! : D Song&Dance comm!), external activity and just… everything! Thank you guys for always being so cooperative, energetic, high and fun!!! ♥ I really do miss you guys so much ): I think my whole O’tiero experience wouldn’t be the same without you all, BB12’s the best OG any OGL could ask for ♥♥♥!

On a more personal note, I guess I just want to say that, really, treasure what’s left of your 2 years here all right! Make every moment count, don’t regret anything ♥ Also, I really hope BB12 will stick together, right through to the end of these 2 years as well as beyond : ) The first friends you made in RI(JC) are from BB12, treasure every single one of them and every single memory you guys had together : ) Keep going for more outings okay! And us OGLs will definitely join you (if you invite us!!!) when we have the time! ♥ I love you all very much, really, thanks for everything, all the wonderful memories, stupid conversations, our pretty gifts … everything ♥

O’H NO, BB12’S AWESOMESAUCE ♥

Much love, Vanessa ♥

Sambor!:
Heyheyhey BB12!!

Wow it’s only been little more than a week since Orientation ended but the memories remain fresh in my head (: all the laughing and fun really made me proud that I got to be the OGL of such a fun and happening bunch of people. I was pretty afraid that you guys would only remember me as Pinocchio and not really have anything to relate to me personally, but I guess all your words on the gift you gave us OGLs really reassured me that I’ve managed to make more friends, as it were.

Don’t stop meeting up so soon, cause that’s what really keeps OGs alive and kicking (: but more importantly, enjoy the JC experience! It’s two years to be savoured and I wish you the best of luck in your rapidly-growing lives. May BB12 stay forever in us!

Lots of love,
Sambor

Hey BB-ians!

Our next OG featured is...

BB02 - O'ooglez
OGLs: Ong Yan Han, Vinna Yip, Bertrand Lian






Message from the OGLs:

HELLO O’OOGLEZ! :D

We hope JC life has been treating you well so far. It’s really awesome to know that the OG is still going strong! Woohoo we love you all so so much and trust us, we really want to return to the orientation days as well.

You all have been a very enthusiastic and spontaneous bunch, never failing to take the initiative and supporting one another all the way. It’s amazing how no one is ever left behind, because every one of you makes sure that it doesn’t ever happen. Station games, war games, EA and fashion parade – they just proved that you guys are such a passionate and excited bunch!

Every single one of you is special in your own way, and has contributed to the awesome-ness of BB02 in one way or another. (: Thao, Nissa, Cherie, Li Hui, Celestine, Ruth, Alicia, Aish, Yin Suen, Ethel, Charis, Beck, Chen Chen, Nigel, Marcus, Sampson, Keng Yong, Samuel, Yuxin, Ornan & Ruolin – what would BB02 be without any one of you.

Anyway, THANK YOU SO MUCH for blessing us with such great memories and a really wonderful orientation 09. You are The Best OG srsly. Hopefully orientation had provided a great beginning to your 2 years here in Raffles, and that it will be the first of more wonderful memories to come. Treasure the days you have here (especially the J1 days omg)!!! We know we’ve been saying this to you over and over again but you really don’t know how much life rocks as a J1 until it’s all over. So just enjoy all that you can, make many many friends, go hang out at the Hodge Lodge, play Captain’s Ball (haha you can go play with BB01!!), bask in the glory of having nothing to do, try out all the canteen stalls, make friends with Kenneth the 7-11 man, KEEP IN TOUCH WITH THE OG (: But of course do study and work hard when you’re supposed to okay!

Whenever you’re feeling down/troubled/upset or happy/excited/crazy, remember that you can always turn to your fellow O’OOGLINGS! And of course your very lovely OGLs.

Finally, do keep up the cam-whoring spirit & please do not forget us.

With much love & hugs & kisses,
Vinna, Bertrand & Yan Han (:

Well, who doesn’t want a fabulous OG to have the best Orientation ever? So what was the best part for you? :D

It’s alright if you all don’t win EA or Station Games because you guys already have the BRAINS AND GUTS TO SNEAK YOUR WAY THROUGH THINGS AH. Love it when you all sit around for dinner and play all the hand games too, fills me with so so so much love seeing you guys sitting together enjoying yourselves! You’re all so nice and sweet, it’s been a terrific time talking to you all and it would be an utmost waste if it all ends now.

I hope Orientation has been a truly rewarding experience for you all! Your OG mates are the first ppl whom you meet to have fun in this college and we certainly hope that you all will stay closer, get closer, be damn close to one another and be happy to crown them your good buddies okay! Of course we cannot force but you all certainly can try! Give one another a chance? If Orientation wasnt long enough for enough ice to melt, give yourself one or two more weeks! You all take the initiative to meet in the morning, meet for lunch, meet to go watch a movie or cycling while ur timetable still allows okay! REMEMBER TO CALL YOUR OGLS ALONG XD Nat Jazi and I believe so much in having a bonded OG coz we are from one and its really awesome if the OG sticks even after Orientation soooo make it happen okay OMCHICHI!

Hey BB-ians!

Now that Orientation is over, don't be under the impression that BB OGLs have forgotten all of you! In fact, one OG will be featured a day, starting from today! Each OG featured will consist of a message by YOUR OGLs, as well as photos of YOUR OG taken throughout Orientation! Enjoy! (:

First up, we have.....

BBO4 - O'ddball!
OGLs: Lui Wen Qi, Ng Jun Jie, Nicole Tham







Message from the OGLs:

Hey all you O'ddballs!

Orientation is over and we're all leaving O'tiero and going back to our mundane little lives full of lectures, tutorials, lessons, work and assignments. But fear not! This may be the end of orientation, but it certainly isn't the end of BB04 O'DDBALL!

We just wanna say that orientation would not have been such an amazing experience for us without you guys! Your enthusiasm, cheerfulness and all round oddness really added Technicolour(TM) to the past 5 days and we will miss you loads! Remember the first day, when you guys sat down and there was an immediate guy-girl divide? Well look at you now, all comfortable with each other! Seriously, we felt like proud parents, seeing you guys grow over the past week and setting off into the unchartered waters of RI(JC) today!

So thank you, Yan Ling, DJ, Dom, Geri, Wei Te, He Shi, Katrina, Abby, Abigail, Nigel, Amos, Yi Ting, Young Yi, Ryan, Kiat Hong, Huijun, Ernest and Siow Kiat for the wonderful memories and the fun-filled times that made skipping lessons for an entire week (and having to practically die in order to catch up) so worth it. You guys are simply too awesome for words and WE LUBBUX YOU WORX!

Remember, our heartbeats will always be in sync.

<3,
Wenqi, Junjie and Nicole!

Hey BB-ians!

Sorry I didn't post yesterday! ): But here's what happened on the last 2 days of Orientation!

Day 4 consisted of mainly batch dance sessions, a 0.5 hour rain dance session, CCAD talk, and the fun activity (a.k.a. batch project - the tile mosaic)!

...and the memories of O'tiero 2009 will forever be imprinted in our minds :D

O'Tiero 2009 ended with a bang, but this only marks the start of many more friendships to be forged and many more experiences to be enjoyed! We sincerely hope that all BB-ians will keep in touch with your fellow OG members and OGLs, and most importantly, we want all BB-ians to continue to be committed to the house, by participating in inter-house competitions (IHCs) and simply cheering for BB! It's through the combined effort of every single one of us that we managed to get joint 3rd for IHC Orientation, and if every BB-ian does his or her part for the house, we WILL be champions in no time! ((:

GO BB! <3

P.S. Please please put on your COLLARPINS that the House D gave all of you during House Hour when you've bought your school uniforms! The collarpins are unique to our house, so you should be proud of wearing them! (:

Hello BB-ians!

Day 3 of Orientation has ended, which also means that most of the more physical/ hectic stuff is over! What's most important though, is that BB J1s participated in WAR GAMES aka IHC Orientation today, and indeed, they played their hearts out for BB! So yay to all our BB-ians! ((:

To recap the day's events,

We started off with IHC opening, which wowed everyone because it was really fantastic!


After that we proceeded on to session 2 of the batch dance! (:




Next came the oh-so-exciting WARRRR GAMESSSSSS! There were a total of 4 war games, including Invasion, Tower Rush, Strip Me If You Can (which everyone loves, somehow :D) and Uprising (which is played as an entire house!) BB-ians played with so much vigour and we're really proud of them!









We very unfortunately couldn't really complete Uprising properly because of the uncooperative weather )): it rained quite heavily, so thankfully we raised the flag (by removing the weights) before the rain started! but i'm sure BB-ians had fun while throwing newspaper balls in while it lasted x)







GO BB! <3
