RAG day

Say K (K)
Say KR (KR)
Say we are the best (we are the best)
You better not mess (you better not mess)
You better not fool (you better not fool)
Coz we are cool (coz we are cool)
We are the best
You better not mess
You better not fool
Coz we are cool
(9claps) KR!
(9claps) KR!

This cheer was chanted all the way, echoed thru all hearts of KEnt Ridgens. They were right to fear us. On rag day, we basically sweep all the awards. All xcept two awards. I wonder myself how did I entered such a competitive hall. It all started cause it has the word KENt in it. lolz. But nonetheless I was in the best hall you can get here. KR warriors.

We got up at 1am to be at SRC(sports recreation centre) to help unload the props. Den later we juz sleep on the wooden planks. and its frekin cold that time... End of the day, fkin shag. but the joy overides pain cause we won.

RAG day is basically a day where all the participating halls and faculties build floats out of garbage and waste to impress the judges. And this years theme for KEnt ridge is KRhome. As you can see, they have build a shoe house. If u see closely, the detail in building every part of the shoe house is so precise. You wouldn't have imagine in any way how these people thought of it. The base is a lorry. and they do claddings and paste anything, u name it. bicycle wheel, aluminium cans, shower head, cut out papers. And hold it, this is juz the moving float. Here are some of the statics...
Pin cushion
Wind mill behind and the dancers for the performance. Basically, we have to carry the floats to the judging area in 1 minute. and then dancers will come out to perform. Since our theme is KRhome, its was about shoemakers and fairies. Quite catchy the performance. will upload it once the video is released.
Some other angle of our props
Some props from other halls and faculties.
Me and amanda. We were both the sai kang ppl. lol. freshie gotta help carry the floats. But we had fun along the way.
A more realistic picture. Which is the best hall? KR. lolzUs. Just before the presentation. All gearing up as KR warriors.
Looking shag after the whole event. Cheered my lungs out. In the end, it was a memorable event. Btw, did I mention, we won the most collected funds on flag day and we broke the records of records by collecting 50k in 1 day. Good job to Kent ridgens.

I'm missing all you guys. But we all walk our own paths. Hopefully one day, we can cross paths again. And by then, coffee would be nice.
