Since my first day at the
Polytechnic University, I have heard that students living
at Lizhi Hall are different from others. However, nothing
has convinced me until the Lizhi Hall Orientation Camp,
2004.
The O’ Camp not only reflected
the tradition of Lizhi Hall O' Camp, but also showed up the
hall spirit and team power of Lizhians by challenging different
tasks in the 3-day camp.
On the first day, we played
a cascade of ice-breaking games. Freshmen got familiar with
each other and became more involved in the activities. The
highlight of that day undoubtedly was the game ‘treasure
hunt’ at night. Freshmen ran, shouted, cheered and sweated
to find out all the judges hiding at hall! Although there
were loss and wins, it did not hurt the friendship since
they are all Lizhians!
The second day continued
with several mass games and adventure games, like ‘rope
stretching’ and ‘human tank’. These games aimed to impress
freshmen by their team power and boost the atmosphere of
the O' Camp. At night we played games inside our rooms together
with the former Lizhi Hall ex-co. It was regarded to be
the craziest night ending with smiles and tears.
On the final day, we played
games like ‘Top of the World’ for fun. Time passed quickly.
Lizhi Hall 3-day Orientation Camp 2004 ended by taking warm
‘family’ pictures.
‘To Make Freshmen Be Part
of Our Family’ is the theme of Lizhi’s 2004 O' Camp. According
to the freshmen, the camp helped them know more about the
hall and make new friends in an entirely new environment
within a short time. All O' Camp helpers and hall ex-co achieved
their goal successfully. As a freshman Leo said “I am proud
to be a Lizhia!!”.
