------------------------------ 1. Singapore VS Malaysia: WHO boleh?
*Calling all RECRUITS: YOUR COUNTRY NEEDS YOU *
Have you got what it takes to defend your nation’s pride?
This year, ICSS and ICUMS are holding what seems to be the showdown of the century- an all-out battle to be crowned the champion of the inaugural *“Singapore VS Malaysia: Who boleh?”* Series.
For the first time in recent memory, members from both Societies will slug it out against each other in a series of three competitions held over the course of the year- the *Dodgeball Match*, the *Paintball Shootout*, and the *Food Festival* (in that order). The points accumulated from these respective events would determine which Society is the overall champion for the year. Being an annual competition, the winning society would then be called upon to defend its title in the following year. Thus, participation at each event is crucial for us to stake our claim as winning the first ever Singapore *boleh* title!
More details will follow in the coming weeks, so keep your eyes peeled for updates during OGM! You can find more information and updates on our website here: http ://www . union . ic . ac . uk/osc/si****ngapore/<http://e.groupspaces.com/click/1kvdb-1ez6m-gtnrkgr6l?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.union.ic.ac.uk%2Fosc%2Fsingapore%2F>
Regardless if you’re a new recruit fresher who’s just been drafted into the rank and file, or a veteran senior who knows the opposition through and through, the time has come for you to step up and make a difference. Join us, to show that Singapore *boleh.
*Majulah, Singapura.

Dear brothers and sisters,
In just two weeks, the 29th ICSS Executive Committee will be organising its first *Ordinary General Meeting*. It will be a great opportunity for members to step up and discover more about the direction which the Society is heading in, as well as to engage the Exco with queries or suggestions. The details of OGM are as below:
*Date: 9 Nov 2011 Time: 1300-1500h Venue: RSM LT 1.31*
During the OGM, we will provide updates on future events for the coming year, followed by a screening of *“(In)Sanity”, *the Major Event Production 2011. If you were part of the Cast and Crew of (In)Sanity, come down on the 9th of November to relive the memorable (and sometimes hilarious) moments together with fellow Production Team members!
In addition, the winners for the *Wackiest Photo Competition, **ICSS Fiesta, *as well as the *Kaya & Toast Secret Draw *(did you read our newsletter last week?) will be announced during OGM.
See you there! :)
*Correction: * (In)Sanity DVDs and ICSS membership cards would only be given out at a later date. More details would be announced soon, so stay tuned to our weekly Kaya and Toast! ------------------------------ 4. Bicester Village shopping trip (19 Nov 2011)
