Campus Life
Sunday, June 18th, 2006BB reporting fr MMU, Monday, 1400:
aft enjoying my honeymoon life back at home 4 about 1 month+, i’ve finally started a new life in MMU.
all new students arrived for the registration n orientation on the 10th of June. when i entered the campus grounds, students n parents were all over the place with the OCs (orientation committee) guiding us 2 different registration counters in the Multi Purpose Hall. at the last counter, we were given a MMU bag (i got my favourite colour blue) wita orientation guidebook, students handbook. a kinda not so good looking MMU long sleeve t shirt n a really horrible(ooh…such a strong word…) maroon coloured batik shirt wit MMU logos on it. we later on found out that we have 2 wear the batiks during the opening n closing ceremony.
the orientation activities started on Saturday itself where we were told 2 assemble at the MPH. we, the Freshies were divided to diff groups n took part in all sorts of interesting activities, danced silly dances, sung really nice songs n made many new freinds. the orientation rules were really strict though… that was the down side of it, hair must be in black, dark coloured skirts n pants… some chinese gals who didnt wan 2 dye back their hair black wore head scarfs or tudung 4 the opening n closing ceremony.
the opening ceremony was held on monday morning, where the MMU chancellor, YABhg Tun Dr Siti Hasmah n the Minister of Higher Education, YB Dato’ Mustapa Bin Mohamed were present. we were given a chance 2 get a hand shake with them n bid them farewell aft the ceremony ended. it surely was a ‘gilang-gemilang’ ceremony…
the next big event aft the opening n closing ceremony was our Performance Night. its a night where all the groups show off their talents n superb perfomances. my group did a modern day, Brokeback Mountain version of Cinderella: Peterella… many tot we would win but we some how lost 2 another group wit some jack the ripper drama.
i guess this was the best orientation programme that i’ve experience besides the strict rules n the lack of time for rest. the food wasnt really good but still a 6 out of 10 i shud say. other than that, the whole orientation was an unforgetable part in my life…
now i just found out that i got an offer fr USM to study Pengurusan… the question now… to go or not 2 go… MMU? USM? wat do u think?
