hey ppl, so so so sry for being late in updating! a lot of ppl say they'll blog but til now no one has done so as yet, guess it's up to me to go on and cont telling everyone who reads this blog about what we've been doing! ;) hope my accounts were reali helpful in giving u all a picture on what rag has been and will be ya? (:
anyway, on
friday (11/5), it was a very fruitful day because we manage to finish quite a bit of stuff on both the
hard tech & soft tech. we had e usual ppl:
applie, xiaoyan, bryan, jackson, nicholas, michelle & also serene who din hav to work tt morning! oh ya, special mention
chuan seng who came down & did his part for rag!!! hope to see more
mc members coming down to help out at rag oh~! ;) for
soft tech side, what we managed to complete is all e cans!!! we are done with the initial processing of all the cans that we'd collected so far! haha, jus looking at all e cut cans & all of us who had done cutting cant help but feel a great sense of achievement! i must say i'm especially proud of all e guys who took up e challenge of cutting cans aka
kenneth, bryan and jackson! towards e end, after much practice and experimenting, their cut cans were just as good as any of us gals! something about cutting of cans which left me super duper traumatised! i was happily cutting open e top of one can of soya bean drink when a whiff of weird smell hit me and den wat greeted my eyes still can make my goosebumps all rise up now. i saw small white
baby maggots crawling inside!!! oh my goodness, i was so affected that i could not take it cutting any more of the cans as i'm reali very much disgusted. it jus feels so creepy and revolting! oh man, i'd rather go wash e cans frm rubbish dump last yr la. at least i din have to witness those insects. yucks..
applie also felt e way i did too!!! oh man...
next to
hard tech, we started building e frames of our
main side props proper! haha, tt's when all e sawing takes place! woohooo~ can see all e guys sweating it out as they work their muscles sawing thru metals!!! hard on u all le, but tis is only e start oh! hang in dere~ hahaha, hard tech is hard to do but it is fun and shiok when u sweat it out! hahaha, also managed to catch on camera the weird positions when guys tend to be in when they're doing hard tech stuff (check out
kenneth and jackson in photobucket man~) shall not elaborate too much because like what ppl always like to say, a picture says a thousand words! hahaha. after everything, at night, those that were remaining
michelle, mei ling, jackson, xiaoyan & chuan seng went to our fav kopitiam in
clementi to eat e
claypot rice and gong bao chicken~! i think that e stall vendors are super familiar with us especially
jackson alr, who is ma chiam their spokesperson lidat.
over e weekend, some of us were busy with other commitments whereas our dear pd
kenneth went shopping for rag materials, must work
OT sia. then on
Monday (14/5), we embark on our
2nd week of Rag. we had a new ragger with us today & her name is
hui yun (or hwee hoon)! so glad to have new people joining us on this Rag journey! it definitely spurs us on to see new ppl coming down and do rag tgt w us!!! (: really hope to see her ard in rag more often oh~ today there were other people who joined us like
mei chen, guan jie, reuben & zac! for
soft tech, we moved on from can cutting to plastic bottle cutting! for
hard tech, they continued on with e main frames. we also had our
3rd ocomm meeting at 5pm! as a lot of people are either working or overseas, the attendance not that ideal but we have
sham, reuben, jack & aaron joining us! the day ended with dinner at
fong seng, haha, i tink it has been some time since any of e raggers last dined tgt at
fong seng as all of us more or less mentally rejects e idea or dining at there ba, hahaha. sian diao alr i guess. ;) jus started counting down to rag day & realises that we're actuali not left w much time til Rag Day!!! time is def a luxury in Rag & any manpower is greatly & deeply appreciated!
if u do want to be part of us, join us soon so tt u can get e most and e best out of this wonderful journey~!
