RIXC expands into FaceBook!

As Ben has already mentioned in one of his previous e-mails, a RAFFLES CROSS COUNTRY group has been established on FaceBook! (set up on the 19th/20th Feb I think)

Link to the group:
http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/group.php?gid=55661535043
[GRP NAME: Ex/Present RI Cross Country]

So if you have a FaceBook account, don't delay, click into da link and join the RIXC group today! Dang, this sounds like an advert.
(NOTE: You need to have a FB account to view the page)

I believe Ben has already sent out invites (to the FB group) to some of us via e-mail. If you don't feel like clicking the link above (maybe it's a virus, heh heh) you can just access it from your e-mail.

And so we end off with the usual...

*Interesting* Quotes...

----------

(On WINGS C'ships race day...)

(Wears number tag on shirt front)
Random guy: "OMG this number tag is damn heavy - keeps flopping around when running"
Derek: "Now you know how it feels like to be a girl and run =P"

----------

(Long run today)
GL: Ben, you see your whole family full of leaders. Got so many prefects. Then you leh?
Ben: Wha-at?
GL: You should have the leadership gene mah
Cheng Lu: Maybe it's a recessive allele...

The Return

WooHoo!!

Sam says he is coming back tomorrow!

The return of a long lost companion.
The return of Yeong Yang's accomplice

I never knew Seow had a dog until I read the post below o.O

Anyone recognise this pair of shoes...?

Yeah well you should cos they'll be your future pair of racers for this year. =P
The shop attendant said the Size 9.5 shoes weigh about 130g, which is seriously quite light. So imagine the weight of a pair of 6-7 size shoes on Reuben and Shafiq! And of course, we have the double-digit-size people such as WWW. But it doesn't really matter much.

Anyway...

Treadmill frenzy!!




I believe that was the first time *most* of us have been onto the NB Shop treadmill, no?

Yeah, the pictures were taken on Thursday, so the Friday people won't be in them =(

And on a completely different note...
omg omg Sean looks so so so so different in an RJC PE T-Shirt!!!! *Yes, I know this is very random*

But before we end this post, I'd like to direct you to Yi Yan's blog (look towards the links on the right) and read the Feb 7 post. It gives another insight to the concept of "Seow-ness". =D

Landmark and Trivia

Hi guys,
Today was another historic moment for the Raffles X-C team as we had our first LONG RUN at Bedok Reservoir.

on a completely unrelated note...
Did you know that Yeong Yang's dog is called yoyo? He says that from today we can call him seow yoyo.

o.O XCountry library mugging!

Let's start off with a quote from SEAN. =)
"Walao, in my four years of being in Raffles Cross Country, I have NEVER seen a time when so many crossers gather together to study" -Sean Lim

... Okay, so maybe not everyone was studying. We had some people like Ben flipping through some magazines (Reader's Digest?) to look for *certain types of* pictures and forgetting to put the magazines back at the end of the day. And then Leeni and Derek were arguing about sleeping in class for some time. And we also found a really really really thick Biology book which was so thick that it's probably taller than most of your rulers.

Pics were taken before today's (28/1/09) training. Enjoy!






And we end off with an amazing picture... The ultimate >.< face

EVER seen EVERest with specs? (excuse the pun)

=P

Heya, in case you haven't noticed yet, there's a new gadget towards the right side of the blog!

...

No, not the clock!



Scroll down a little...











Not there yet...









Almost there....










If this post is still at the top, you should be able to see it from here =)



I've decided (some time ago) to compile past photos into a FaceBook album instead of smacking them all onto this blog, cos there's a limit to the number of photos you can upload onto Blogger. So for those of you who haven't seen the pictures from last year's Learning Journey to KL, the link is just there. Actually, Ben has another album, but I can't put his link there unless he adjusts his FB settings. (*poke*, *poke*, Ben)

So I guess that's it for this post.

HAPPY LUNAR NEW YEAR!
新年快乐!
あけまして おめでとうございます!
(Don't bother putting the Japanese one into a translator cos it probably doesn't work)
