Digest
Hello everyone, and most of all, welcome freshers!
To all the freshers, welcome to your first issue of *Kaya and Toast*! The
Kaya and Toast Times is our ICSS bi-weekly newsletter produced by your
ExCo, and it updates you with upcoming events organized by your beloved
ExCo as well as career opportunities from our sponsors. We hope you enjoy
the future servings of Kaya and Toast! :)
First off, our *Freshers Introduction* will highlight all the important
events in the first few week of school, in order to aid the freshers in
settling in to life in London and at Imperial. Do check out the post below
for more information pertaining to hall walkabouts, freshers' fair, OG
walkabouts, Hyde Park Picnic and ME auditions!
Also, thank you everyone for your great response towards *Ski Trip 2018*!
The first batch of sales has been sold out, but worry not! Check out the

1. Freshers' Introduction
Hello freshers!
Summer events, from Sojourn to UKBound, have all wrapped up and hopefully
you've packed enough Milo and Chicken Rice packets to see you through the
next 9 months. With less than a week till *freshers' weekend*, I trust that
you're excited to begin your adventure in London! To help ease you in,
we've got a few events lined up for you:
*Hall Walkabout (29th Sept 2018, various timings)*
For the undergraduates staying in halls, your seniors who once stayed in
the same hall will be bringing you to the nearest supermarket to purchase
your necessities (e.g. bedding and kitchenware) as well as sharing some
#lifehacks that'll serve you well over the next year. Also, this is the
perfect opportunity to get to know the other Singaporeans in your hall so
that you know whose kitchen to crash for your cookouts/drinks. :) Each hall
will be making their own arrangements regarding meeting time and the rough
itinerary in their *respective whatsapp chats*. If you're not in one yet,
do contact me and we'll add you in right away!
*Freshers' Fair (2rd Oct 2018, 1100 - 1600 h)*
Similar to a CCA fair back in high school, Freshers' Fair is an annual
showcase organised by ICU to display Imperial's diverse interests. Its a
great time to pick up freebies while browsing through the various clubs and
societies Imperial has to offer. Stop by our booth and get yourself
vouchers for *bubble tea (free drink or 20% off)** when you sign up for
membership! Keep a lookout on our Instagram account (@icsingsoc) for more
information in the coming weeks! To find out more about other Imperial-wide
events during your welcome week, click HERE

for undergraduates or HERE
<https://union.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=d91a1cb130f12317830464586&i…>
for postgraduates.
*both vouchers are while stocks last
*OG Walkabout (6/7th Oct 2018)*
Whether you're missing your OG mates or want to explore parts of Greater
London, we've set aside the second weekend for your OG walkabout! Be it a
day trip to a nearby town or a walking tour of London, the choice is all
yours. Don't worry about sticking to this weekend; feel free to hold it on
another day if more people can make it then! :) If you missed out on
Sojourn, this would be a great time to meet Singaporeans across various
courses and halls so let me know if you'd like to join an OG!
*Hyde Park Picnic (13th Oct 2018)*
With the different things that Imperial has to offer, it's a lot to take in
within the first two weeks. Join us on the third weekend to relax and
unwind with some fresh air, games, sports and food at a picnic at the
beautiful Hyde Park, right at the doorstep of Imperial! More details of the
event will be released closer to the event date!
*Major Event Mix & Mingle / Auditions*
If you're still thinking about whether to join for ME, think no more! Take
this opportunity to try something new and meet more people outside your
course and hall. Auditions for cast and chorale will be on the *9th and
11th Oct*, while our pre-production party where we officially kick start
the preparations for ME will be on *17th Oct*.
This is merely the start of the school term so you can look forward to more
exciting activities coming your way! Enjoy your final few days in Singapore
and see you in London! :)
Your frantically-packing-for-London President,
Jacelyn

1. Post-WSG 2018
Greetings, members of ICSS (past and present)!
This year's *Warwick Summer Games* was held on the 25th of August 2018 at
Jurong West Sports and Recreation Centre and as usual, our Imperial
Contingent did us proud!
This year's Team ICSS comprised of 1 Football Team, 1 Basketball Team, 2
Captain's Ball Teams, 1 Frisbee Team and 3 Monopoly Deal players. Our
Basketball and Captain's Ball teams did us proud, both clinching 3rd place,
while our Football and Frisbee teams also achieved respectable positions of
4th and 5th place respectively!
As Mary Lou Retton once said, "A trophy carries dust. Memories last
forever." Win or lose, we hope that everyone who attended had fun and made
new friends at WSG'18! Many thanks to *The University of Warwick Singapore
Society* for organizing the event and to our very own Photography Team
(Chelsea Chen, Celine Mark, Jeremy Tian, Ang Ter Shien and Teckyan Chua)
for the photos taken during the event, which you can view on our Facebook
page HERE
