Sporting fanatics, listen up – fancy having access to sports channels like ESPN and STAR SPORTS, right in the comfort of your second home?  

Well, this will no longer be a far-fetched dream, with the new Junior Common Room Committee (JCRC) announcing the screening of sports programmes in the Blue Oyster Room every weekend, as part of their game plan for the academic year ahead – in a bid to make Eusoff a better home for all.

“As members of the JCRC, we are leading to serve and serving to lead… we’re your campus leaders, cheerleaders, fire-fighters, and secretly your greatest, craziest fans too!” proclaimed incoming JCRC president Allan Alex Sim in his uplifting address during the 21^st JCRC Investiture dinner on Thursday.

On top of that, he also spoke about their visions for the new year, which includes having the courage to initiate novelties, beginning with the end in mind, as well as standing together as one.

“In going the distance, we stand strong as one,” he said. “We’re all wearing yellow now, and when the sun shines on us, we will be golden!”

As outgoing president Sim Jit Vern puts it best in his impromptu speech, “our days are numbered (in hall), so make every single day count, Eusoff!”

Indeed, it was an interesting night – a great way to officially kick-start the new year for the 21^st JCRC.

From the sensible to the wacky, to the disciplined to the sultry – these are the unique bunch of characters that have came to make up the much-awaited plot of the annual Eusoff Dance Production (DP).

At the first full committee gathering for the DP crew on Wednesday, members were not only treated to a sumptuous spread of food, but also a firsthand glimpse of the performance script for their big night. 

Truly the revelation of the gathering, the basic storyline, including the characters as well as the set designs, was presented to an eager team by the scriptwriters.

The play essentially follows the life of a young man John, who meets several imaginary people along the way, all with their distinctive personalities. It explores his relationship with these people, and how he copes with balancing the imaginary and reality.

While there are comedic moments, the story also touches on the aspect of insanity – which adds a dash of darkness to it.

Climatic and heart wrenching dances, along with elaborate sets and props will also serve to enhance the visual experience for the audience.

With the combined efforts of freshmen, seniors and alumni, DP sure looks set to have another successful year ahead!

It was a fun-filled night in Eusoff Hall on Wednesday as the annual Inter-Block Games (IBG) drew to an end with a rapturous closing ceremony.  

Kicking off with a tributary film incorporating photographs of the games held, the event brought back fond memories of the teamwork shared by players during the past couple of weeks, as well as the quirky moments witnessed by many.  

The slideshow was followed by our Hall Master AP Tan Tin Wee’s speech, which was full of encouragement and enthusiasm, especially aimed at bringing all Eusoffians together in support of the upcoming Inter-Hall Games (IHG).  

Junior Common Room Committee (JCRC) president Allen Alex Sim then ended the night with a speech of his own. Truly deriving from the heart, it reminded everyone present of one very important point – that we are all Eusoffians, and the golden colour of champions is within us all.  

 “Come IHG, we will let NUS see our true colours and capabilities!” he declared.  

His speech was received by a roaring round of applause and led way to the IBG prize giving ceremony, where Block A walked away the overall winner.  

It was a hilarious and appropriate ending to IBG, as it encompassed the true nature of Eusoffians – always striving for excellence, but with an added sense of humour.

Name: Tan Wei Hao Wilfred

Room: C402

Faculty/Year of Study: Year 2 Electrical Engineering

Position Running For: Social Services Director

Relevant Past Experiences:  

Eusoff Expeditions Member 07/08

Class Representative in JC

Sailing EXCO in JC

Why I Want to Run For JCRC Social Services Director:

The main reason for me running this position was because of expeditions last year. Expeditions has given me a whole new perspective of overseas volunteerism and made me realize that there is nothing more precious and more valuable than the simple smiles and genuine ‘thank you’-s which you get in return.

I have decided to take up the position of a social services director in JCRC because I would like to take this platform to promote volunteerism in Eusofff, allow everyone to know more about expeditions and EVC and hope to give everyone a chance to experience the joy and satisfaction of voluntary work.  

If I get elected:

I will make sure that Eusoff will reach out further and provide more for the less fortunate,

I will do my part to promote volunteerism,

I will ensure that everyone gets an equal opportunity to experience volunteerism as a Eusoffian.

Thank you.
 

PLEASE VOTE FOR ME AS A SOCIAL SERVICES DIRECTOR.
