Many of us didn't want to go in the first place, but I was asked by my friend, a senior of mine and also the committee in the Business Management Society. After being asked, I feel that maybe I should go. I asked many of my friends, finally 10 of us willing to go at first. Then, the day before the event, another 2 people said didnt want to go because they're tired and also wanted to prepare for Law test which will be on Wednesday.
To be frank, I did thought of not wanting to go because of "Test". Since I've said wanted to go and I made many people go for it, that's why I made myself to go too.
During the event, there were only 7 out of 10 from my class actually went for the event.
To comment on the event, I would say that I did enjoy it because I loose my voice after that. For me as a scout, believe that one would enjoy an activity if the looses their voice after the event. I quote this phrase from Paul and he quoted it from the late Mr.Yap Boon Lee (he was a very inspiring person for me, I would say).
There was 2 sessions of talk which were introducing to MAICSA (telling us what is MAICSA about which I had herd this talk for 3 times already) and also Coperate Experience Sharing (TAR alumni came to tell us what they feel and why they choose this path). Among these 2 talks, Corperate Experience Sharing was something new to me. However, since I've made my choice and I'm now in the MAICSA line already, that talk doesn't have any influence to me. What inspired me the most is from 1 particular speaker, TAR alumni, Ms.Voon, she had a very good english command ans she speaks well. Besides that, she won 2 book price for 2 final papers in ICSA examination.
Apart from talks, the activity was okay to me but the weather is abit too hot for many of us. At least during the activity, I could communicate and lead my group well. Although we didn't won the price, I would say that my group did well. Winning or not is not important to me because I'm there not to win anything but to exercise my networking skills.
I would say it's important to master networking skills because everyone needs it in the future. Some may disagree to it, but for me, this is important.
Overall, I would say this event was quite okay. At least we do have more chance to social with many people that we don't know and also expand the network.
