Freshmen Orientation 2014

Hi all!

So yesterday was Day 2 of the Orientation program for this year's new intake and I decided to head back to school to visit my fellow alumni and current student leader trainers. As some of you may know, I am graduating officially in May with a Diploma In Sport and Leisure Management, and I would say that what made my 3 years in poly education fun was first and foremost, being a student leader. And I kid you not, the amount of time and effort spent in organizing and being in front of a group of freshmen who are totally new to each other is probably one of the most difficult and awkward situation to ever be in. Hats off to those who have to work with a job scope like that, definitely not an easy task.

So here are some pictures i took with my iPhone from yesterday. Note to self: you have a camera for gods sake, please use it.

What's an orientation program with no cheers. 

School of Sports Health and Leisure' 14 freshmen

Yearly affair of Jam & Hop. 

Oh and did i mention, that this year the School of Hospitality worn the Principal's cup ( an inter-school competition republic polytechnic organizes) so a huge congratulations to them for breaking the streak of 2 consecutive wins by School of Engineering.

Some of the alumni and they are people who will always have a place in my heart.

I honestly feel that choosing Republic Polytechnic was one of the better choices I've made for the people I've met and the studying system that I feel that is reparable to any, for it has taught me to be a better team player and someone who can think out of the box, out of my comfort zone.

Just an advice to students starting a journey, be it RP being first choice or non of your choices, sometimes it is just meant for things to happen some way and even if its not something you have always wished for, make the best out of the situation you are being put in because the only barrier to enjoying yourself is not the environment, but yourself, and you'll never know what life can surprise you with.

Signing off,
