This is my first year joining RBKD orientation. On the day itself, I was feeling excited yet nervous. But everything went on smoothly, and it took not much time for me to get to know my teammates.
Obstacles race was the part that I enjoyed most. We were to create our own obstacles with the items we had. During the race, everyone was supposed to be blindfolded with a person from their group guiding them through the obstacle course, and I am one of them (to guide). At first, it felt hard to guide, but I got the hang of it after guiding through a few teammates.
Lastly, thanks to the OC, TLs, ATLs and everyone present at the orientation for the fun moments together. Joining the Orientation was no regrets, hope to be able to join the future ones.

“Let’s add this bottle here! Is 1 bottle enough?”
This was the reaction when we were told that the obstacles we will be making, will be for other teams. Just when everybody was done building their obstacles, “decorated” with leaves and hanging bottles, we were told that “the obstacles you guys have built will be for your own team!”……… and we gasped in horror!
Through this, everyone have learnt that in RBKD, you do not do harm to others otherwise there would be something known as karma ;) And without any doubts, team spirit is really the key to complete this race :)
For the “Mahjong paper” game, I have learnt that as a team, no one gets left behind no matter what, because with teamwork, we can definitely conquer the impossible, together.
TEAM: Together We Achieve More!

I felt that it was interesting to design the obstacles. I was given a chance to be the guide for my group. Guiding was indeed challenging, but eventually, everyone was able to cross the obstacles blindfolded when we worked closely together.
Last part of the obstacles race was the ‘Mahjong paper’ game. I felt that this game was the best for group bonding. There were many interesting moments throughout the game. Even though my group came in last, I felt that my group had the most fun completing the game.
The whole game was enjoyable and hilarious. It has been a while since the last time I had so much fun. Hopefully I will be able to join more of such events in future!!!
