Updates on Study Sessions

Welcome to Muggers' Club (mugging is a term we use to mean that someone is always studying so mugger is referring to the person who is always studying)

We will not have study sessions on Tuesday since we have class on that day. And there is obviously no mugging activities on Wed since we will be out.

Thus far, no one has registered for Thursday or Friday. Let me emphasize again that you NEED to sms me before you come for the session if not I will think that no one is coming and get out of the house. Let me know one day before you come on your arrival and departure time so that I can plan out your work.

Best,
Marina

The Outing

Once again the holiday outings are here. This time round we are going to raid Orchard Road. So here are some things to take note of:

Date: 17th March 2010 Wednesday
Time: 1130am (lunch will be provided)
Location for initial meeting: Miss Marina's block void deck

What you should bring along:
1- EZ Link card
2- Wallet with about $20
3- Water bottle
4- Jackets
5- Umbrella (2 can share 1 umbrella so decide among yourselves)
6- Wear comfortable shoes
7- No short skirts please! (At least knee length)
8- Pencil/pen
9- Calculator (you can use the calculators within your handphone)
10-Handphone!!!!(Each pair/trio must have 1 person having a handphone)

Criteria: Participation is OPTIONAL and voluntary. You may bring along 1 friend each and must confirm your attendance latest by Tuesday 16th March 3pm.

As this is a mega size treasure hunting experience along Orchard Road, you will be split up into teams of 2s or 3s depending on final number of participants. You will start from different venues along Orchard Road. As worksheets will be handed out, you MUST complete all questions on the worksheets before coming to the final check point. You must not discuss or disclose answers if you meet with other groups.

If you met with an emergency (someone falls down and is bleeding or lost an item etc), phone ME immediately. If there is serious injuries sustained, one member of the team shall ask for help by going to the Information Counters located within each shopping centre. One team member MUST keep watch with the injured member. Thus if you have only 2 members within your team and 1 is seriously injured, call me and do not move to any other positions. If help is given to you (someone comes along and offers help) please get the person to call me before agreeing to go away with this person. DO NOT walk away with anyone who offers to help you unless I am informed and has agreed!

We will start off the treasure hunt for an hour and gather together at the 1st checkpoint (venue to be decided later). Once the entire group's progress has been checked, the hunt continues. Another 1 hour after this initial meeting, we will have a 2nd checkpoint (venue to be decided later) whereby everyone MUST gather around and submit their worksheets. You will have 2.5 hours in total to roam around the upper section of Orchard Road. Our final checkpoint will be at the Haagen Dazs store at Orchard Centrepoint (where you will be treated to ice cream if you'd like).

Final results and answers will be disclosed on Thursday 18th. At the end of 2.5 hours, you MUST reach the final checkpoint even if you have not completed the worksheet.

The winning team will have lovely prizes for EACH member of the team.

During the entire hunt, you can make use of public transport to get to places (i.e. take a bus, take a train, take a cab) or you may walk (do plan out how you want to reach certain places though because in each shopping centre you will have to spend time going up and down to find answers). Therefore walking all the way is not the best option! Whatever form of transportation you take up, the expenses will be incurred by yourself (that means you pay for your own public transport).

Some money will be given to each person of the team for a task in the worksheet. You are NOT to spend this money on unrelated items. If you wish to purchase gifts you may do so provided that you are still on time.

Notes on checkpoints 1 and 2: The venue of these checkpoints will be decided at the last minute and sms will be sent to your handphones to give you reminders on the timing and location. There will be a penalty for coming in more than 5 minutes later at the checkpoint. Unless there is an accident which caused the delay, you must not reach the checkpoint more than 15 minutes from the arranged time. Your team will be disqualified if you fail to reach within 15 minutes from the set time.

Final checkpoint notes: You will be given the exact time for arrival at final checkpoint via sms on the actual day. You must NOT order any items until I have arrived (you may ask for a table for xx people and water to be served first).

During the entire hunt, you MUST not disturb the business of any shops or cause disturbance or annoyance to other shoppers. Refrain from running wildly and screaming within any shopping centres. If any security guards approach you due to such untamed behaviour, it is your responsibility to face the music.

If you have any other questions, please let me know in class.
