A Bit of Things Here and There
I AM BACK
After Jangkrik (in case you dont know.... that is my comp's name) broke down for a solid month, he has been revived by Adit by plucking out one of the 1GB RAM. Okay, so now he is running with half RAM but hey, he is still working lolz...
So, yeah... I AM BACK.. with more action
(this sentence does NOT refer to WHAT SAY U SAY)
2 best OGs, 1 self declared best OG and a massive lost of voice after the 5 week worth of FOPs, I am darker right now. Yet I still need to do an MCing job for PINUS. Okay, it is not really MCing larh, just get the crowd to hype up. Wish me luck peeps...
Speaking of leading an orientation group, well... I must say that I learn a lot from this fellow called Ow Zhaohui (full name here, in case he likes to google his own name haha). He was in Flying Dutchman (my OG in Engin Camp 2007) and basicly the one who starts all the madness.
So, here's some things I learn after 2 Engin Camps, 2 Engin Oweeks, 2 Union Camps, 2 NUS Explorer, 2 KuliNUS, 1 Chess Camp and 1 Cyberia Camp:
1. The essence of cheering is not the words, but how high you are after the cheer. Even if you forget the words, just anyhow one.
2. In orientation camps, one person doing crazy stuff -> mad, two persons doing crazy stuff -> stupid, but one whole og doing it -> best OG!
3. Losing a game is okay, but losing face is not. MUST cheer better!
4. The role of an OGL is to set up a standard. The OGL must be slightly more 'high' than the freshies, but cant be too 'high' till they cant catch up. Once they catch up, increase your level of 'high' ness.
5. If your OG does not look like the best, heads up! No worry, every OG has the potential to be the best in something. I have an OG who is the best in clubbing and taking photos.
6. Always have a game to play in hand. Continuity of activity is very important to keep the spirit level high.
7. OGL must know the cheers by heart. It is not funny (aka leaving good impression) to read from the cheer list.
8. To earn bonus point, sometimes the comms want you to entertain them. Think of some cool stuff to do beforehand.
9. Contribute to your house. Best councillor is nowhere as good as best OG. Best OG is good, but best OG in a best house is awesome.
10. Cheer is to increase your spirit level, not looking for enemy. So, when you cheer, always put that smile on the face (as Joker says...)
Now that sounds like a Ten Commandments...

Lets add the eleventh commandment...
11. What works for an OG might not work for other OG (games, cheers, flashmobs...)
