Float Building and Dance Practice (12/06/09 – 13/06/09)

qikun — Sun, 14 Jun 2009 06:59:38 +0000

Our first “official” float building session started with a 2D1N session. Friday was spend continuing the sundial. Quite a few people came that night, the regulars plus Bell, Huiyun, Yi Jia and special appearance from Melvin in Shanghai. Bell designed the sundial top with an SoC design. Went to Fong Seng for supper that night and slept at around 5am. Was a fun night!

The next morning, the dancers arrived for dance practice. More people joined this session as it was a Saturday. The people who were there for the previous session are beginning to master the moves while the new comers are learning fast. Meanwhile the float building team started working on setting up the frame for the clock tower.

We are testing a new feature where a webcam will be installed in TR15, taking pictures every 15 minutes and publishing it online, Live!. Stay tuned…

Float Building (10/06/09)

At last we have started building the actual float. Spend most of today shifting the remaining stores into TR15 and brining the carpet up to the roof to sun it. After dinner we started to work on the sundial. A small and relatively easy to start with component. But still, didn’t manage to complete the structure at the end of the day, yet to add the curvy shape to the body. Next time will be complete sundial structure and start on the clock tower. Not much pics for today, busy…

Dance Practice (08/06/09)

The first rag dance practice session was held in SRC today. This year there will be some basic cheerleading elements in it. Almost everyone in the team came with zero experience in these area but at the end of the day, they managed to get most of the moves right. It was a tiring but fun day with lots of comical moments
Most importantly, we need more people in the dance, no skills/experience is needed so everyone please join!!
