Welcome onboard!

Calling out to all freshies! All of you should have received a confirmation of acceptance into Hall 10 FOC 2012. If you have, below are some information that you should know!

Collection of keys start tomorrow afternoon (30 July, Monday) at the Main Communal Hall building. A booth will be set up outside the Hall Office, and your friendly seniors will be there to hand over your keys! However, do note that the acceptance fee that you've paid for hall accommodation only accounts for your stay from 1st August onward. That means if you collect your keys early, there will be an extra charge of $13 per day up to 1 August. We do encourage you to collect your keys early though, so that you have time to unpack and get accustomed to your new home, and you'll be ready for the Official Landing on 1st August!

Do take a quick check on the packing list (which can be found on the information page) to ensure that you're fully equipped for the trip to Planet X. On top of the items in your packing list, you can also bring items (Such as your laptop, speakers, books etc.) to spice up your new rooms and make it more like your second home! Please be reminded to bring along your own pillow and bedsheet (as well as your bolsters, blankets and cuddly toys), as they aren't provided by the Hall Office.

A pre-camp will be held at Jurong Central Park on 30 July (Monday), 3-5pm. That is where you will get to meet and interact with all your fellow seniors, and clarify any doubts and questions regarding Operation Exodus if you have any. More info regarding the pre-camp can be found in the information page.

For freshies who have not been accepted into the camp, or did not manage to register in time, do not fret! The Freshmen Orientation Camp is only 5 days out of your entire stay in Hall 10. There will be plenty of opportunities to mingle around with your fellow freshies and seniors. There will be plenty of block activities, as well as activities (such as night cycling, sports events, festival celebrations and even overseas trips) organised by special committees in Hall. The first activity that you can look forward to is the Freshmen Welcome Dinner, which will be organised on the first or second week of school. This is a dinner specially organised by all freshmen by the Hall Fellows and seniors, and it will be a good opportunity to know everyone from your block. Stay tuned for more details!

Lastly, do refer to the Hall 10 FOC Guide for Freshmen for more details regarding the camp and Hall life. We hope to see you all soon in Hall!

What's in for us in Planet X?

You might have registered for Operation Exodus, or you might still be considering. But for all of you who are on this blogsite right now, the most pressing question that you'all may have is: Whats in for us at Operation Exodus?

The answer to this question can be summarized into the 3Fs:

FAMILIARIZATION! One would feel lost when confronted with a new surrounding and an unfamiliar way of life/studies. That's what we are here for! We will be bringing you around NTU (as well as Singapore) to familiarize you with the facilities (and food) in NTU and Hall 10. Us seniors will also be there to share our experiences with you, as well as share some tips that would save you time and effort when dealing with schoolwork and life in NTU!

FUN! You might have heard that life in university is all about mugging and writing reports (true to some extent), or that life in university is all about having fun before all of us are thrown into the working world for good (also true to a large extent). But Operation Exodus is the best way to kick-start your new phase of life in university! With sports and games lined out throughout the five days, it will be a fun roller-coaster ride (less of scary and more of happy) to energize you for the new school term. We assure you that you'll never be bored!

FRIENDS! You'll get to know and form bonds with people from your block, from Hall 10 and even from around school! These friendships will extend beyond the short 5-day duration of this camp, to the meal sessions, birthday celebrations, barbeque parties and hall activites (even all the way to exam mugging sessi
ons!). Rest assured that even if you come alone, you'll never feel lonely with us around!

We hope that we have given you enough reasons to sign up for OPERATION EXODUS.

If we do, please click here for instructions to register for the Hall 10 FOC 2012!
If not, we have more exciting and juicy stuff coming up on this blogsite... stay tuned!
