Orientation week

hello there..it has been quite "a while" ever since the last time i updated my blog.. i was quite busy deciding my future actually..huhu. i registered myself at Unisel and studied there until i got the offer from Ministry Of Education. it was a tough period, when i had to analyse which option offers me more advantages. After filtering the pros and cons of both options, i decided to be at the place i'm staying now..Institut Perguruan Bahasa Antarabangsa (IPBA).

The orientation week i had here was not really different from the one I had in Unisel. It was going on for one week.One torturous week,to be precised. =) my friends and I slept approximately 3 hours a day and just imagine how our eyes looked like. we looked like zombies. Many briefings were given on how to live in IPBA and the procedures, rules and regulations that we need to adhere. The briefings were given in the main hall most of the time, where the conditioned air lulled our eyes till they were completely shut. This is the time when i learnt many sleeping skills..which will probably be applied in class.huhu..

We didnt sleep all the time..just when it came to the dragged on talk.hehehe.. But the talk given by Sir Aslam Khan captured me. it was sort of motivating and uplifting. He made us think of the reasons for being here and being on the route towards becoming a teacher. Undeniably, he's a superb motivator! his words,acts and gestures made us laugh till we coulnt even tell when we gonna stop. One of his remarkable word is "A teacher makes a difference". Thanks Sir.

The last day of the week was the day we had been waiting ever since the first day. The closing ceremony was going smoothly and that was the very first time we met Dr.Sofi bin Ali, The Director of IPBA. his voice was thick and his words were full with accent. i wasnt so sure which accent it was. hehe.. he talked for quite a long time and suddenly stopped and asked one guy who was sleeping at that time."I'm so tired" the guy replied. then Dr Sofi asked the MPPs "what time did you let the people off to bed?". "11.30" they answered. huhu.. i was about to laugh.. well, if we were let off to bed that early, we wouldnt had been that tired.

So that's how the orientation ended.. we had our classes the following week..our new life...
