Nevertheless, 16 Apr was the big day. It was orientation day. I reached Jurong West at 8am. Yes, it was really early since I leave in the east and I had to squeeze on the train with the students. I can't remember when was the last time I did it. Anyway, everyone's spirits was high and after registration, we proceeded to the main auditorium. We had a briefing and this year's enrolment was 469 students! It was a record. For the past twelve intakes, we had about 200 students or more, this was the first time it went beyond 400!
After the briefing, we started on the Amazing Race and we went to the places that was part of the church's history. So the journey took me from Jurong West to Chinese Garden to River Walk to Vivo City to Paya Lebar before ending at Marina South for a steamboat dinner. We were supposed to go to Simei and Expo too but my team didn't have enough time.

Anyway, I am into my second week in SOT now. Yes, it has been tiring - juggling work and school but I still look forward to it. Every new day is worth looking forward too and I am enjoying it.
