I would like to clarify certain doubts and misunderstanding which have arisen from the mishandling of some issues.

Under sheer pressure and immense threatening from two seniors, I was forced to assume the role of the welfare officer. Last Friday, after watching a concert by Temasek Polytechnic Band, Tan Li Hong, aged 20, a big and burly man, came towards me with his hand stretched out. Apparently and most probably, he seemed to be offering a handshake. Without much deliberation, I was caught in his sinister trap, where by shaking his hands, I was agreeing to accepting full responsibility for the welfare of the flute section and also, receiving a highly life-threatening post - the Head OF the Ministry OF Welfare OF Flute Section OF Hsc(alumni)band (aka saikang warrior). Struck dumbfounded, our hands were immediately clutched (is this the right word?) into a handshake. I felt numbness spreading from my hands to my body(lol?) as Tan Li Hong, also known as, the Ed, signalled to his accomplice, Ng Man Ning, who refer to herself as Ning-er, to confirm the handshake. Hence, there I was, trapped in the pits of hell, as the Head OF the Ministry OF Welfare OF Flute Section OF Hsc(alumni)band (aka saikang warrior).

lol.

Tan Ed wants me to put this up, in case some people, like strahl who currently has over 1400 unread emails, do not check their electronic mail.

• Bottoms (including an extra for wet games)
• Underwear! (including an extra for wet games)
• An Umbrella, we don’t want to get wet, do we?
• A pair of slippers and do ensure that your slippers are in good condition, we don’t know the chances of them disintegrating
• A pair of shoes (optional)

• Shampoo and soap
• Toothbrush and toothpaste (someone could bring one tube and everyone could share it)
• Comb
• Boyfriend/girlfriend/spouse (by Emily the Strange)
• Plastic bags to store soiled clothes
• Sun-block/Sun-tan lotion — The organizing committee strongly thinks that none of us should risk getting skin cancer, due to prolonged exposure to ultraviolet radiation
• Water bottle – The committee also hopes for everyone to stay healthy by drinking enough plain water. Consuming too much sweet drinks may be deemed as a grave, toxic, deadly, lethal and fatal thing to do for some strictly-health conscious HSC flautists, whose names happen to start with H. Also, the committee hopes that none might be offended by the above statements. Please drink more water, then.

Exception:

To dearest nerdy studious flautists, for example, Jermain and of course, Andy, I hope you will forgive the committee for any misconception and inaccuracies in this mail. Once again, thanks.

• For all critical-year students, we welcome you with open arms to bring your study equipment and materials for this chalet, just in case you start feeling insecure, very deprived of studying, when your conscience is haunting you or in Andy’s case, when you feel angry (:


To conclude, we hope that this mail has brought, at least, a little entertainment and also, all opinions should not be taken too seriously as they are in no way intended to offend. Thank you. Let us also thanks Ng Man Ning for initiating the proposal to create a things-to-bring list and Tan Li Hong for helping to vet this mail.

Yours sincerely,

Seng Wei Jun (W.J)
Flute section chalet welfare officer’ 08


P.S Sorry for the overdose of information, it’s a bad habit.
