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 post below for details of the trip and of our second round of sales! What a great summer it's been. See everyone back in London! :) With warm protein-denaturing-temperature regards, Teo Jia Wei *I hope nothing lessons your enthusiasm for going back to school! * Content 1. Freshers' Introduction <#m_-3484335340670478353_1> 2. Ski Trip 2018 <#m_-3484335340670478353_2> 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!

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 2. Ski Trip 2018 Hi everyone!
