Life as Graduate in NTU
Hence, I will love to share my horrible experience in NTU.
In year 2000, I came to NTU alone( and in future too, I leave NTU alone ). Engineering in NTU is not my first choice, actually was my fourth choice. The first three choices are places in NUS. I love NUS more than NTU.
I love traveling and I could blend well with students in NUS for their vibrant attitude and great fashion sense.
Anyway, The only friend, close friend who came to NTU with me together is Terence. Sadly, I always hang out with my friends who were already in third years in university. I was delayed by two years because I retook my A levels again.
I came to NTU with the bang. With my huge duffer(AKA Ali Baba )bag, tight green tee and worn-out Levis jeans, I attend the lecture for first time with Terence. Apparently, I did get unwanted attention.
The first place I attend in NTU
I am being laughed at ( actually ) for being silly. I did not care.
Eversince after the orientation camp, there were numerous group meeting from lunch to dinner, to supper to anything. Well, we do not know anyone yet so the only closeness we get to know are from orientation camp. Apparently, there are a lot of engineering students attend the camp.
I belonged to General Engineering Group B. Luckily Terence also belonged to same group as me. Hence we usually attend lecture together, but mostly we do not attend lecture as regular.
Group B is very interesting group because we have three beautiful girls who dressed like Ah lians and came to Lecture in late fashion. They get attentions everytime.
One of them, Qiwei is a mannequin model. I think there were quite a number of models in group B. I won't be going to boost their f-ing ego to mention their names here.
Hungyong, Hui Hui, Juliana were few others in group B but they belong to their own clique. Terence and I were individuals in engineering group.Because of that, I hardly attend any lecture.
They were so boring.
The class I usually had my general engineering tutorial and I always sat behind
Because of lack of interest, I failed so many subjects ( which I am fully regret )
Then I am being streamed to tutorial group 9 for one year. I was quite close to Ming Wei and Wee Lip ( whom both of them were hall kings ). I also closed to Rafeeqah and Alwayiwah who were allocated same laboratory group as me and mingwei. Since Laboratory period is much longer and we need to work as group, I got more bonded to those people. I love laboratory class.
I was very reserved during the class.
I also need to attend English proficiency class which I find a waste of time.
Frankly, I was not quite happy during one year because I was not well adjusted yet. What I did is just a motion to carry on with the life as graduate but I had no passion at all.
What made me stay positove were Zuwa friends who always have a lot of activities in hall as most of them stay in Hall except me because I stay near NTU. I remembered the joy , visiting Jocelyn and Bee Lan in Hall 1 ( They were roommates )with Hung yong.
I did a lot of visits to friends stay in hall when I started to become the chairman for Union Orientation Camp.
