NP Open house 2008

2day marks the end of the 3 day ngee ann poly open house. had a rather interesting experience these past 3 days. I spend the 1st day doing pvsig duty and joinning the flash mob for 1 round at the stage at the atrium. The rest of 2days was spent at ict ushering ppl who want to visit ict around the e-garage and rhymes center and then sending them off to The DOT(formally known as M.A.C). Met alot of ppl these past 3 days. The visitors ranged from ppl who dun really want to visit the sch but came for all sorts of reason like following their friends to being dragged here by their secondary schs or so they say to ppl who hav completely no idea what they want. Theres also alot of parents as usual some came despite the fact that their child is still in sec 3 u might called it kiasu but i am more inclined to term it concerned parents. I had 2 interesting and some what enlightening experience 2day .

1st i handle a 3 person grp. A female and a male who are hearing impaired and required hearing aids seems that the female was slightly better of then the male in terms of hearing as she had some sort of Cochlear implant and the father of the male. I never really appreciated the value of govology until this incident. How i wish the govology was around and i could just let the male use it it would certainly make his life alot easier communicating with ppl like me haha hope i didnt give that guy too much trouble. But i as really enlighten by the fact that ppl like them want to actually do a diploma in poly its proably gonna be a long and hard road for them. I doubt i may have the courage and will to do it if i were them, perheps it might be due to their circumstances that they have the will and courage to be like that. Thanks to Mr Cheng, Mr Jim Ang , yan yun and zaiman we more or less managed to answer their quires or so i hope gd luck to whatever they decide on hope they have a smooth learning experience

2nd thing was a guy who bought his nephew to visit the sch. The nephew was from china so he had trouble understanding all the english terms we were using for our course brochures and explanation. I tried my best to explain everything in chinese as eh accurately as possible haha. Hope it didnt sound to weird to the guy i mean seriously how do you say RFID in chinese anybody noes? All i could do was offer a as accurate translation as possible or just do a literal 1 .

all in all it was a very interesting experience. The only thing i want to grumble about is no np goodie bag for helpers in the sch dammit i want that bag. The blob in there is so cute and nice and squezeeable

Btw i just recivied like the most unwanted thing to hear. My attachment has been confrimed i am doing some sort of web advertising thingy in sch under IHP under Mr Patrice cant be any thing too easy haha its Patrice after all. but thats not the problem the problem is that the team is suppose to hand up the project proposal and draft TOR(Term of reference for those who dun noe) by 1st of Feb. Cool man i will be a expert in speed up tor production by the end of it.
