The countless perks and exclusive privileges of being a member are also stated below. Secondly, many thanks to all who turned up for UKBound and making it a resounding success! Thirdly, Hyde Park picnic is upon us again! We have organized a massive picnic at none other than the beautiful Hyde Park. There will be food, drink, good company, and of course, sports! We will most probably be playing football, touch rugby, Frisbee, and captain’s ball, depending on the response. This is a good chance for you to meet Singaporeans from all batches, in the universal and "friendly" twin arenas of sport and food, amidst the cool autumn breeze, under the light autumn sun. Finally, check out the networking event organised by OSU and Contact Singapore on the 7th of October, the DBS talent programmes and the Citibank recruitment drive (deadline today!). Details below. P.S. Please note that the Ski Trip preliminary sign ups close *today, 28th of September*. We will be opening the bookings through the website soon, so look out for it in subsequent KnTs! Note that the website will have the official booking process, with payment to be made as well. Hence if you have already signed up through our Google doc, you will still have to book and make payment through the website. Your faithful secretary, Gabriel ------------------------------ Contents 1. ICSS Membership <#13a0ca8e5fd281c5_item1> 2. UKBound 2012 - Vogue <#13a0ca8e5fd281c5_item2> 3.

Although it costs a mere £5, your combined contributions will go a long way in funding our events. Furthermore, we need the membership numbers so that we can receive funding from the union to better support our events. In addition, members enjoy healthy discounts in many of our events such as Ski Trip, Chinese New Year Reunion dinner, and our trips to various parts of the UK. Less healthy discounts would comprise the restaurant partnerships, including Chinatown favourites Rasa Sayang, Gold Mine, Four Seasons, and many more.

UKBound 2012: Vogue was successfully held at Zouk on the 15th of September, with a turnout of more than 400 people from a multitude of universities in the UK. It was a night to remember, consisting of a variety of performances and games, led by professional emcees Leslie and Bobby. The highlight of the event, the inter-varsity pageant, was also successfully concluded, with Mr Cambridge Tay Shi Huan and Ms Imperial Joelle Chin earning the title of Mr and Ms UKBound 2012 respectively. In addition, Mr and Ms Popularity were awarded to Mr LSE Jerald Khoo and Ms Warwick Anisha Primalani, and Mr and Ms Congeniality were awarded to Mr Imperial Akash Philip and Ms Cambridge Joey Lim as well. Congratulations to all the winners! On behalf of the executive committee, we would like to thank each and every one of you for coming down to support the event. No matter how much effort was put into the organisation of such an event, it would not have been as successful without the excellent turnout on the day itself. We hope that you enjoyed the event, and we hope to see you again at UKBound 2013! Yours sincerely, Ting Wei on behalf of the 30th ICSS Exco ------------------------------ 3.
