Early Days At INTEC UiTM 2011. Part 1

I would like to welcome the weekend with open arms since this week has been an awesome week for a college freshman like me. Minggu Destini Siswa (MDS) was held throughout this week. I proudly announce that I'm currently blogging from my apartment, far away from home.

Took the flight to KLIA with Dad since the college registration is on the next day.
These are the last snapshots of the airport and airplanes before I left K city.

Sunday 03/07/2011 (Day 1)
Left the hotel around 0730hrs to the college. Gratefully, the journey went smooth and managed to reach to the destination in approximately 1 hour. There were a lot of people; parents, grandparents, siblings, uncles, aunts, cousins, and even neighbours. Filled up some forms and went to some block to submit the forms and obtain some merchandise which consists of a mini backpack ( more like a knapsack)with some important paperwork and a long-sleeve shirt. Got the keys to the apartment and brought everything upstairs.

The apartment has 2 bedrooms. 4 study tables, 1 pantry with sink, bathroom with shower (depends on which floor that you'll be staying), garbage chute, 2 sofas, and a place to dry your clothes.

 






The coordinators of that day's event announced that students have to be back at that site before 1300hrs. After the so-called long wait, everyone boarded the bus to college. Listened to some talks and that's probably it. I can't recall.

Monday 04/07/2011 (Day 2)
Everyone from different programs consisting of  American Credit Transfer Program (ACTP,) American Degree Foundation Program (ADFP,) Australian Maticulation (AUSMAT), A-Level Medicine (ALM), A-Level UK( ALUK)and A-Level German (ALG) assembled at the basketball court according to our programs. The seniors who are also known as Pemimpin Mahasiswa, divided us into 40 groups of different programs with a senior assisting the respective groups. I was in group 31which was definitely an outgoing group.  After lunch we had the student-sponsor session at their respective places.The head of the MDS organizing team later revealed that they purposely mixed students of different programs in order to create the 1Malaysia/ 1INTEC spirit. I really do agree when everyone got the chance to meet each other.


Tuesday 05/072011, Day 3

To my point of view I really loved the activities held on the 3rd day of MDS. We were able to meet with the whole group. Created the group cheer and played many fun games and mind boggling riddles
Only certain groups managed to perform their group cheer. After lunch we had a rehearsal for a major function on the next day learned , we had The PMs taught us a Bollywood dance and also a modern Chinese dance. Everyone enjoyed themselves which made the  PMs to be happy and everyone danced up to 4 rounds or more.


p.s I guess that's it for now. Will share  more stories as soon as possible. Pardon me for any grammatical and spelling errors.
