Some of the most beautiful chapters in our lives won't have a title until much later." With each new academic year comes some uncertainties but this is where the fun lies so let's look forward to another year of adventure! :D* Content 1. Welcome Week <#m_3231020895662191351_1> 2. Ski Trip 2017 <#m_3231020895662191351_2> 3. Singapore Community Day 2017 <#m_3231020895662191351_3> 1. Welcome Week Hi freshers, I trust that you are excited for your first few weeks in London! There is a series of events lined up for you by ICSS in the coming weeks to help you get settled in, and here are just some of them that you can look forward to: 1. *Hall Walkabout (30 September 2017, 1300 - 1600)* For our undergraduates staying in halls, you can look forward to a short orientation tour around the neighbourhood and vicinity of your hall accommodations on your first day in Halls, conducted by seniors who had once lived in the same area as you! As this will also be the first day you will be spending in Halls, you will also be brought to the nearest supermarket for you to grab your daily necessities (e.g. kitchenware and bedding) during this walkabout. Your seniors will also be sharing some tips and tricks that will help you settle in more comfortably to life in London! This will also be the perfect chance for you to get to know the other Singaporeans who are also staying in the same hall as you so that you'll know which kitchens to crash when you smell Bak Kut Teh down the hallways! Details are as follows: *Date: 30 September 2017 (Move-in day) Time: 1300 - 1600* So freshers, if you haven't already signed up, click *HERE* <http://union.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=d91a1cb130f12317830464586&id=5adb182d10&e=030d49d029> to register your attendance with us so we know who to expect on the day itself; we don't want to leave without you! *Deadline for registration is 29 September 2017*. *2. Freshers' Fair (3 October 2017, 1100 - 1600)* Organised by the Imperial College Union, the Freshers' Fair is the equivalent of a "CCA Showcase" of Imperial's vibrant community and diverse interests. Have a nice walk around the campus picking up freebies (read: reusable grocery bags, post-it pads, pens and possibly even bubble tea), and don't forget to stop by our own Imperial booth! You might just walk home with some freebies from us as well! You can also find out more about other Imperial-wide events during your welcome week *HERE <http://union.us9.list-manage2.com/track/click?u=d91a1cb130f12317830464586&id=3ffe260ef1&e=030d49d029>* for undergraduates or *HERE <http://union.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=d91a1cb130f12317830464586&id=a5369c0a3a&e=030d49d029>* for postgraduates. *3. OG Walkabout* Missing your OGmates already? To kick off your adventure in the UK, we will be going on an OG Walkabout! OG Walkabout is a day when your OG travels together for a day-trip to a location of your own choice, and you will be spending some quality time together exploring the UK! We have set aside the first weekend (*7 or 8 October 2017*) for your OG Walkabout, but if you prefer to have it on another day when more people can make it, go ahead! *4. Hyde Park Picnic* And... if you're tired of the rush and confusion of your first weeks in London (ikr, school again, seriously...?), or if you wanna fight the Freshers Flu with some fresh air and exercise, come join us at Hyde Park Picnic, right at the doorstep of Imperial! Enjoy the rare London sunshine, food, games, and seize the opportunity to chill out and relax with familiar faces and newfound friends! We've set aside the second weekend (*14 or 15 October 2017*) for the picnic, and we'll let you know the confirmed date soon! An exciting time awaits you in your first few weeks in Imperial, so I hope you're geared up and ready for your next adventure. Happy packing, and see you in London! Your already-in-London President, Bong 2. Ski Trip 2017 Hey everyone!!! I hope all of you are coping well with the summer heat.
