For those still travelling or working or studying overseas, have fun with your endeavours!

Pre-Departure Talk Hello everyone! We concluded the Pre-Departure Talk for the freshers yesterday, and it was an extremely fruitful session for freshers and parents alike, as freshers gained a lot of advice from the seniors, while parents were assured by all the things that ICSS is doing for their children. I would like to say a big thank you to all the seniors who came down yesterday to interact with the juniors, for without you guys the Pre-Departure Talk would not have served its purpose at all! We also hope you enjoyed the food while talking to the juniors... (: Special thanks goes out to the Academic Reps, who helped to gather the freshers, give them advice and collect their forms - thank you so much for your help!! :D Moving forth, we hope to see you at our next event, which will be Sojourn! Your caring Secretary, Benjamin Chin (: 2. Evelyn Gardens Memory Project Hi friends! We are still opening submissions for the Evelyn Gardens memory project! The Evelyn Gardens accommodation cluster will be shutting down after this summer break, and I believe many of us, past and present residents and non-residents, have had great times in the halls here as well as in the surrounding area. Evelyn Gardens has definitely played an important role in our first year at Imperial at least, with the many hall activities organised by the wardening team, and chilling in the common rooms of the various halls around. Therefore, we would like to ask you to take some time off, reminiscence about your first year memories of Evelyn Gardens and share them with us, regardless of which batch you were from (even if you have already graduated from Imperial!). These will go into next year's edition of Retrospect as the halls in Evelyn Gardens had definitely played a defining role for many of us in ICSS, and I am sure we have many great memories to share. Do share your stories by filling up and uploading photos using this form <http://union.us9.list-manage2.com/track/click?u=d91a1cb130f12317830464586&id=74d03f4cba&e=030d49d029> ! Hope to hear your stories soon! Your kiasu liaisons officer, Ivan 3. Team Sojourn Dry Runs Hello Team Sojourn! I hope you've been having an enjoyable summer break after the hustle and bustle of the school term! Some of you may have met the freshers during PDT, and we are just 6 weeks away from seeing them in Sojourn 2015: Collide! We'll be having our *first dry run* on *25th July 2015 (Sat)* at *1000 hours *at *Siloso Beach*, Sentosa! The aim of this first dry run is to try out all the games we have planned, as well as everyone in Team Sojourn to get to know each other! We will be releasing more details to OGHs and Committee ICs in due course, and they will contact you closer to the dry run date. See you there!
