new student intake 2009/2010...weee~~

yep3..new students are enrolling in UMS....*excited*
i was involved with the 'Sesi Bersama Sekolah-SST'...it was a two-days event which was held on 1st and 3rd July...okayyy..so on the 1st of July,had 2 wake up really early bcuz we were required to be there at UMS by 7.30am and also bcuz i hav 2 send my lil bro Nadzmi 2 skul..heh...i arrived at Dewan canselor at 7am! owh boy was i early! aha~
so no choice but to wait inside the car 4 about 20 minutes till i got a message from Pei Wen..got out of the car and went straight to the dc foyer,then wait again till about 8am sumthin and all of us went into the main hall..and the worst part begins....we, the seniors, had to listen to all the taklimats till 12.30pm! its like we had to undergo the orientation all over again..sheesh..
well,it wasn't all that bad..i think..soooooo..after all the taklimats were done *finally*, Tor, Pei Wen and I get to meet our marine science juniors..yay! total of 39 new marine science juniors...then we all queued up and headed straight to our bus and off we went to IPMB! (IPMB=AA) *wink wink*
when we arrived, we went to bilik seminar 1 for a quick intro and briefing of the IPMB and its lecturers..we, the marine science students combined with aquaculture students and the whole bilik seminar 1 was full..huhu..
tick tock tick tock..and done with the briefing..tyme for the seniors to bring the juniors on a quick tour around IPMB..the aquaculture students went to the hatchery, while we went to the aquarium and the boat hse..*quick peek at AA* and we wrapped it up at 5pm and went back to our respective dwellings...
3rd July! the registration day for the juniors! okay..so i arrived at the UMS lbry at about 8am..it was soo crowded! huuu...glad i don't hav to register on that day..at the libry foyer, a lot of juniors asked us about the registration thing..we had to repeat the same explanation over and over and over again..aha~
then after that the seniors were told to go into the libry..we had to go through the whole crowd!! luckily the juniors let us through..thanx! so when we got into the libry, we had to do the same thing we did outside.."explaining" our throats we really2 dry by then...huh~
i forgot what tyme it was when we had our lunch...after that we went in again and this tyme into the megalab...we had to assist the juniors on how to login and do the members registration for the ums portal...
but there was one heck of a problem..server down! poor juniors..they had to refresh the website a LOT of tymes just to register...there was this girl..she waited there for about 3 hours! OMG..so kesian oo..and for us the seniors,we supervised the juniors, went round and round the cubicles to check on them...seriously my legs were killing me at that tyme..have to stand and walk around for hours...i repeat..HOURS...but it was worth the experience though..sadly,the technicians told us that the website need to be repaired..so the juniors had to go back and register at another tyme..hmmmm...so i left, and went to Sabah divers to collect my dive card..yay!! so thats it folks! a fun and exciting but really tiring day!
till next tyme...
~au revoir~
