But wait, guys, don't be disheartened just yet!  There'll be lots of pretty new faces to look at as for the first time ever in NIE, we have democratically elected PAGEANT COUPLES from this very same camp! *Wolf-whistles* Yes yes, this means handsome new faces for you girls out there too.  Wanna check out them out?  Then hesitate no more and start to form tables for the highly-anticipated Dinner & Dance (DnD) on 3rd September (Saturday) 2011!  An event jointly organised by the Teachers' Trainee Club (TTC), Bachelors' of Arts (BA) Club and Bachelors' of Science (BSc) Club, you'll be sure to have a raving good time!

3rd September 2011 - mark down this date in your calendar if you haven't already!

If you need further convincing, just take a look at the handsome faces of two members of the planning committee behind the DnD...

The one on the left, your very own Fake Freshie - Jonathan Chia!

And of course, the creator of the soon-to-be patented "Rizal Face" -
your Camp Coordinator, Rizal Rezal!

We're sure you're convinced now.  

And if strutting down runways is not your thing, come join the planning committees behind these awesome events!  With so many student groups to choose from, clubbing @ NIE has never been more happening.  Look out for our booths just above the canteen the whole of this week!  We guarantee that it'll be an experience you'll never forget!

Till the next time!  Don't forget our date tomorrow (and every Wednesday after that) - 10.30am at the canteen.  Let's keep the BA/BSc FOC spirit alive yeah!! :D


With much love,
Your Orientation Planning Main Committee (OPMC)
