The Athenian Journey
By athenafc1415
10:50 PM

It’s been a few weeks past Orientation, and everyone’s starting to settle down into the flow of lessons and homework. As we look ahead to the start of a new term in the place we call our second home, we should also look back into the days which have brought the C1s of Athena Faculty together!

 

Throughout Orientation, all you Athenians, together with the other 3 faculties, went through your very first Faculty Meeting, War Games, CT Games, Sodache Challenge and finally POP, and we your senior FacComm are very proud to say that all of you got very much closer together, much more zi-high and much more pumped up with spirit! These are what define Athena, and you have to carry on this spirit of never giving up and fiercely giving our best, so that we can continue to be the most zi-high faculty in HC – a very bonded group of green-wearing people! 😀

 

Here are some moments captured of Athena during War Games and POP, and we shall let these pictures speak for themselves 🙂

 

Hopefully these pictures brought back some memories of those times with your classes and fellow Athenians! Even though we did not win the Faculty Shield, you all have won in all your senior FacComm’s hearts! <3 <3 <3 Because you put in your very best; because you have had fun; because you kept the Athena spirit going strong!

 

As we set forward to conquer the future, reminiscent the past because while everything has to come to an end, we are the ones who make a choice to remember these memories.

 

Message from Dance I/Cs:

POP may seem eons away to some but to us, it seemed like it was just yesterday. We are so glad to be able to lead your batch through this POP journey and you guys have been nothing but amazing. We had high hopes (probably way too high) for ourselves and for you guys and although we didn’t come out victorious, you guys definitely did not let us down!!! For real. Your batch has taught us so much. The dance is anything but easy to learn but the perseverance that y’all have put into memorizing your steps and executing them with perfection, THAT IS TRULY ADMIRABLE. The effort and dedication you have put into the faculty is so comforting. Thank you guys for everything!!!!! 🙂

 

All the endless hardcore dance practices and shouting at you, we hope you will take away more from it than just our angry expressions. We hope you have enjoyed the dance, fostered new friendships and learnt to work together as a huge team to nail this dance! (and maybe learn to shake your booty hahaha) This dance wasn’t about us or fac comm, it was about you guys, coming together to create this masterpiece!! AND YOU GUYS DID AMAZING. POP isnt just a dance off against the faculties, it is a dance that makes us a faculty. And to see you guys dance as a faculty was truly truly heartwarming. 🙂 Through it all, we have all left the event with a little part of Athena in our hearts. All the best in conquering the future! 纸短情长,就此搁笔。

 

Message from Dramafeste I/C – Shen Han:

Thank you very much for coming down on the 5th and 6th of March to watch our play as well as those of other faculties! We would like to thank the J2s and J1s who took the time to volunteer and help out in Ekstasie’s production as without them, it would not have been possible to make the play a success. Even though Ekstasie wasn’t perfect, we hope that you guys enjoyed the play and found it a memorable night!

For those who didn’t manage to make it, there is always next year and those who want to continue helping out in Dramafeste are welcome to do so 🙂

 

Looking ahead, as you start stressing out over studies, do not fear! You still have your classmates with whom you’ve had so much fun and together let’s overcome all the challenges ahead as one Athena!

 

Your C2 seniors have finished their block tests, and together let’s all look forward to the upcoming exciting Faculty CIP and Faculty Outing!

 

Great job Athena 🙂 AHOOT!

Love,

Athena Faccomm 14/15 <3
