Before the school begin, there is an orientation week. In the first and second day, my mind was struggling because I have to live a new life in MMU for about 4years! The feeling that I had is upside down, I feel very uncomfortable because I have to live with someone that I never knew before and in addition I am a quiet and shy person. I don’t even dare to talk to others especially on the first day of the orientation, all the senior and including the student reprehensive council were my Orientation Leader and we played a game, call “Ice breaking”. In the end of this game, it helped me to break my quietness and shyness. It’s really a challenging game for me, because this game requires a lot of communicating skills. Although sometimes it is tiring but it was really fun and exciting! The orientation Leader did not only introduces the school to me but he also shares his personal experience living in MMU.
After the orientation week, school began for the first day. At first I saw the time table, it is totally different compared to secondary or primary school. It has a lot of free time, sometimes only one hour in class per day. I thought I can really enjoy my playful life in MMU but it is not as it seems because if I keep on enjoying my playful life I will only neglect my studies. As I recall all what my teachers and my Pastor told me in my hometown ‘you must discipline yourself’. It’s true; I have to learn to be discipline in my daily life! In MMU here because my parents are not here to guide my lifestyle, I have to learn how to be independent and I have to make my own decisions in everything that I do!
Apart from learning to be independent, I also learn how to cooperate with others. Most of the Lecturer here is not seeing our intelligence and or anything but they wants us to learn to cooperate or teamwork! Because out of ¾ are group assignments from the lecturer and ¼ is individual assignment, I feel very good to all the works that the lecturer gave. The first time we had our group discussion, I learned how to humble myself and accepts others idea or knowledge. Through this experience I feel very satisfied because the result is unity in the things that we do.
I really enjoy my life in MMU here! It really prepares me to face the challenge in the coming future. It is true that MMU is the place that creates generation of leaders to the world! I want to thank God for giving me such an exciting and challenging life!

Orientation week!
Dearest Edward,
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your experience and feelings with us ^^ it is indeed nice to know that you are so serious and positive about your studies ^^ Keep up your good effort ya!
The essay is good but since you are explaining about something that already took place, i.e. the orientation week, perhaps it will be better to use all in the past tense :)
The rest are all ok :) but lecturer doesn't need to be in capital letter because lecturer is not a special name ya ^^ and most of the lecturer must be most of the lecturerS.
Keep writing ya and thanks a million for being patient :)
Luv,
Ms Jasline
