School Is Over!!!

Yeaaah!! I can finally rest and do all the stuff I've planned for this summer. There's no pressure, stress and all school-related stuff to worry about.

Because I'll be spending most of my time in front of my laptop, I might as well continue blogging for the sake of improving my English.

Now, I'll be talking about the highlights of my third term at Asia Pacific College.

The Float, and the Speech Choir


Our Last Working Day
For the first half of this term, nothing much happened except for the making of our groups float. This float is for the opening parade of the School of Multimedia Arts Week (SoMA Week). We spent two months planning and working on this float. It's concept is based on the movie called "Treasure Planet". Thus, it's a space pirate ship. This ship of ours was the smallest because we weren't informed that we can go beyond the limit, which is 6x6 feet. Despite that, we kept going and finished what we started. We didn't win but I'm sure that the crowd really liked our performance. It was that EPIC.

After our midterms, we had the Speech Choir for the finals of our PUBSPE2 class. We weren't able to practice it until after the float thing. I volunteered as one of the leaders and it was a pretty hard job. Honestly, I don't have that much experience with performances, but thankfully, most of my classmate do. So, I assigned those people to a task they're best at. With this, most of our block is working. I didn't really help a lot since I wasn't the one who conceptualize. Everything was from my classmates and I just put together they're ideas and make sure everyone's suggestion gets heard. Another difficulty I faced as the leader was making sure that everyone listens. It was really hard because most of my blockmates are playful and they get distracted easily by the gadgets around them.

During our practices, we had some help from our seniors. They were our critics. If it weren't for their comments and suggestions, we wouldn't have come up with a good performance. So... thank you to Ate Enne, Marvin and Addonie. We really appreciate your help! Also thanks to Louis. He's the one who conceptualize most parts of the performance.

In the end, we were the 2nd runner up (3rd place) in the competition.

Even if this kind of activities are stressful, I did enjoy it. I got to know more my blockmates and their strengths and weaknesses. We had a lot of bonding time and fun times during the practice.

I'm really glad to be a part of ABMA123
