its a long long summary of the orientation. so warning. continue at your own risk.

-----

day one..}

for start. reached at eight thirty-ONE and did registration. was assigned to DA group three. my module group for the three years.

and so the introduction began. played 'whacked' to get to know our class module-mates better. and i misread two module-mates names because i didn't hear the 'n' and the 'k' in front of their names.

superb hearing. i know.

got called thrice in a row. and according to my sister. the reason was because my name was easy to remember. so this makes me wonder if should i laugh or cry for having such an easy-to-remember name.

the orientation group leaders (OGL) of my groups were angeline and addy. and addy looks like valerie in some ways. LOL!

anyway.

after that entered the auditorium where they showcased works of the graduates by diplomas. and the only thing i can comment is that "gosh. i guess i chose a challenging path for me to walk on". :/

and it was lunchtime! was super hungry but when the food was placed in front of us i felt full all of a sudden. the food was like ohmygosh and it was worse than what i had when i was camping in phs!

but still because i am a good girl i finished it all. and i'll like to point out that i'm only one of the FEW to finished it. ha! :DD

so after the horrible lunch was the tour around the school. and it was kind of boring to me because i toured nyp twice when i was in phs and so the things i see is the same. only with different groups of people.

and the last event was lullabies talks back in the auditorium. people around me were like already sleeping. so makes me wonder how am i going to survive the lectures when school starts.

after that was dismissed. ended at around five-thirty.

-----

day two..}

reached nyp at eight SIXTEEN.

basically its games day so what we did was to just play and play. but before that there was a lecture by the course coordinators about some housekeeping matters. about materials needed and the timetable for the first day of school.

a sleepy day ahead that day.

after that was given our very first task as students of SiDM - draw a ten-panel comic using mr. man as the character. the starting and the ending panels must be the same background. so i simply crapped my way throughout the whole one and a half hour.

can you sense danger in front of me now? ;DD

after that was lunch and the standard of the food has NOT increase at all. the only difference was that the chicken meat was replaced by fish and its not nice even for someone like me who eats all kinds of fish.

and because of the disappointment i didn't finish the food. leaving behind some veggie and that's all. ;DD

lunchtime was finally over and went back to the atrium to discuss and practice for the performance item to be performed on stage on the last day. wasn't quite smoothly at first but after that we managed to produce a cheer.

later. its games time! had eight games in total but due to time constraints our group only managed to complete five. although we were told to bring dry clothes to change but i didn't managed to get wet because my group is too big as compared to the opponents.

plus it has lots of gentlemen who were willing to play the wet games so i was considered spared.

because i wasn't a sporty type and i can see that the scrollbar is getting small so i decided not to blog much about the games. but the last game 'guess the word' was funny. did stupid actions and those actions was passed down from the first to the last person on the row.

;DD

then there was debriefing and was dismissed at according to my phone. six forty-four.

-----

day three..}

reached nyp at around eight but it was only until eight-thirty then they start the orientation. simply because some were late.

had a crapping session at the theater of the arts with the orientation group leaders and then it was another cheering sessions among the different groups. quite enjoyable because the other groups were funny and enthusiastic.

a good way to start the day i guess.(:

after that was dispersed to do our group presentation board. drew ourselves on a piece of paper with the size of 8"x 8". and i can only say that i got to pull up my socks now! let me tell you why.

this is my self portrait:



and these are the self portraits of the two OGLs who are currently moving on to year two this april:



can you just see the huge difference?! :O

however. as life has to move on so let me stop emo-ing for a while.

it was lunchtime but because quite a few people (including me.) had enough of the food they decided to go macdonald's to have their lunch. ordered fillet o fish and sat down to listen to their talks.

oh and this is what we gave our OGLs for their efforts:



back to topic.

and it turns out that many of my module-mates entered this course through DPSAE or DSAE. this means that they were interviewed by the course in-charge and therefore they definitely have the skills in them.

i feel so dead as there is this phrase that describes my situation:

she opened the can of worms to find a snake among them.

and for your information this phrase was used by mac taylor of CSI:NY in season three when he saw the BODY of a DEAD civil worker or what sitting by a car.

anyway.

went back to do our works completed our work. and so. presenting our final work. with the theme of "who am i? who are we?"


ta-dah! :DD

part of the work:


opps i've by accident featured my work again!(:

after that prepared our cheers and i can say i really had a lot of fun doing this. the class was really cooperative when there's a leader. (if not everyone will be stoning.) wahaha! :DD

so the very last event of the orientation was the presentation. but before that had a speech from the deputy don't know what of the school. pretty long and i almost went to visit mr. zhou. but i'm proud that i still made it in the end.

:DD

then two more talks on the SiDM club and the sketch club. the latter can help me improve my drawings thus i feel like joining. but i'm afraid that my drawings will upset the models and they refused to come and be the club's model again.

'dillema' man.

after that was the presentations of every group and then it was the prize presentation. but the highlights was the OGL's dance at the very end of the orientation.

and the whole thing ended at six fifty-two.

-----

oh by the way do you know that my module group has twenty people consisting of eleven girls and nine guys? quite balanced i must say. as compared to the other groups which may have only two girls or two guys or so.

power of polytechnic classes. ;DD

presenting DAo3'o9!
