Following this initial interaction, the excitement soared as participants ventured to the scenic East Coast Park for a series of exhilarating activities. These engaging games were strategically designed to break the ice among students hailing from different faculties, fostering an atmosphere of camaraderie and unity.

在最初的互动之后，我们前往风景优美的东海岸公园开始一系列令人兴奋的活动，同学们都情绪高涨，翘首以盼。这些破冰游戏都是精心设计，旨在打破来自不同学院的学生之间的陌生感，帮助大家更快的互相认识，结下情谊，找到在校的欢乐氛围。

The activities ranged from the challenging Human Knot and the whimsical dressing-up escapade with newspaper to the glamorous catwalk competition showcasing the best dress. Adding a dash of competition, students also took part in a relay race where they were grouped together using raffia strings. It ended with the Newspaper Limbo Challenge, where students daringly attempted to fit themselves within the confines of a newspaper. This entertaining challenge tests their agility and flexibility as they endeavor to fold and contort themselves to fit into the limited space of the newspaper.

活动从富有挑战性的“人类结”和异想天开的用报纸“换装”，再到展示最佳着装的T台比赛。除了比赛之外，学生们还参加了分组，进行接力。最终以报纸挑战赛结束，学生们大胆地尝试，发挥想象，这项有趣的挑战赛也考验了他们的灵活性和想象力，因为他们需要努力地折叠和扭曲自己，以适应报纸的有限空间！

Post-adventure, our fresh-faced freshmen were treated to a delectable BBQ feast, impeccably prepared by the dedicated members of our student council. The sizzling aroma of the barbecue dishes wafted through the air, and it wasn’t long before every last morsel vanished, a testament to the delectable fare on offer.

冒险结束后，我们的新生们享受了一场美味的烧烤盛宴，这些美食都由学生会的敬业成员们精心准备。烧烤的滋滋香气在空气中弥漫，一会儿的功夫就被一扫而光，这也充分证明了大家的好手艺。

The talent within our freshmen cohort shone through as some spirited individuals voluntarily serenaded their peers with heartwarming songs, adding a melodious touch to the evening’s festivities.

意气风发的同学们自然的合唱起暖心的小夜曲，我们的新生都一展自己的歌喉，为当晚的庆祝活动增添了旋律。

As the day gradually drew to a close, a memorable group photograph was captured, encapsulating the spirit of unity and excitement that marked the NIM Student Orientation.
