2) EXCO ELECTIONS.

yes, the long-awaited elections are here again! :D more information will be released soon, so please do keep a lookout here! this is esp so for all who are considering to run/rerun (hint hint) this year! hahaha. forms will be sold soon, so take this time to consider and think carefully.
exco is not something you should run for just for the portfolio. it takes a lot to serve. please do take that into consideration. (:

3) STUDYING SESSIONS!
as njcians, we should live up to our name right! hence, there will be official studying sessions for NJWD on every mon and fri, right after school :D
no time limit, and you can leave and come at whatever time you can!
but of course, the place would be the left hand side of the library (which means we will have to leave by 6), followed by the oasis! HAHAHA.
see you all there! PEOPLE, PLEASE TURN UP TO MAKE THIS A SUCCESS! :D
(more sessions will be added when tests/exams dates are nearer...)



that's all for now, but please DO COME BACK TO THE BLOG OFTEN TO CHECK, OKAY! :D

and also, please take note of the changes in the calendar up there!

it is a very impt tool for you. (:

Terpsichore 2009 - Touch
By NUS Dance Synergy
25th March 2009,
8pm University Cultural Centre Theatre, NUS
Free Admission

Terpsichore is NUS Dance Synergy's annual concert series, and was started by the group in 2005 as a pioneer platform for the concert showcase of student composition and choreographic works.

This year's concert explores the concept of the human touch - of our need to establish physical, emotional, or intellectual contact with one another - and the origins and consequences of this innate force.

In this display of innovative and challenging new pieces that are strongly grounded in choreographic concepts and ideas, NUS Dance Synergy once again challenges its members to seek and explore new avenues of expression through movement.

*Limited tickets available at the door 1 hr before showtime on a first-come-first-served basisThe venue capacity for UCC Theatre is 400. (So be sure to be there early!)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

if everyone's interested, we'll make it a WESTERN DANCE outing!

so what are you waiting for! express your interest when we ask ok! HAHA. thanks! (:
