New school term begins on the 12th of July.I have to say that after four lengthy months of working, it is definitely the right time to resume my wonderful study life.
University Malaya offered me Language.ENGLISH that is!
I am definitely not complaining :)
I should be able to enjoy :p
My course mates come from different places.
There is a Russian, an Iranian and an Egyptian.
Several students from China can be found in this English course too.
Finally Malaysians are the majority.
The best part is everyone get together quickly.People in this course is friendly.
My very first friend in this course is
JENNICA CHIN!
She is from Sabah
and
She speaks good English!

Fabulous Closing Ceremony for Orientation
After three days of torturous night, orientation started to be better in terms of the activities and the people.
There were several outdoor activities which was awesomely fun.
I was involved in the tarik tali event and I enjoyed the senam seni at the varsity field.
I personally think that the closing ceremony for orientation week was fun.There was a student who sang Bukan Cinta Biasa.She sang crazily well.She sang like Siti Nurhaliza.
the attendance was great enough to tear apart the hall :p
The cheers for that night was insane.
I think the best college when it comes to cheer definitely belongs to the ninth college.
After all ninth college won the cheer segment in the UM Cares event.
Nonetheless I met up with some nice people.They made this orientation week less torturous.

the very first batch of friends in University apart from my room matesAfter the wonderful ceremony all the students went back to their respective colleges.We as the residents of nine went back to ninth.
We were exhausted and the unexpected continue to unfold.
Seniors revealed everything.
Juniors were truly shock.
We got to know that their initial introduction was a fake.
One of the best faker was Samantha Schumacher.She claimed that she is a German.At the end we got to know that she is not a German but she is doing language and major in German Language.Her real name is Samantha Ng.
Seniors apologised for their harsh treatment.
Juniors were kind to forgive the seniors.
It was truly a touching moment.
We also get to know that all those expels are a total bull crap.
We were just lucky to get those punishment -.-

The Nightmare of Orientation Week
Unexpectedly this particular week started off on the 4th of July.I was expecting it to start at the 5th of July.After all I ended my office work at the end of June.I barely had enough rest from work and here comes orientation.
First till the third of July flew by in a flash.I was accompany by my dear family to University Malaya.It was a Sunday.Registration was on that particular day.I was expecting after registration, I get to spend some quality time with my family.At the end I got to know that it would be otherwise.
I checked into the hostel.A lot was playing in my mind.I have a lot to worry.My major concern is my family.I was second to arrive in my room.One of my room mate was earlier than me.I got to know that he is a local too.I discussed with him about who gets where and which.I was thankful he was kind enough to let me have the single bed since I am tall :p
When I was done with my bed issue, I went down the stairs since I got the 4th floor.On the way down of my first flight of stairs, I met up with another student.He asked me a question.Do you know where does Room 4-14 is situated?I laughed and direct him to our new room.
After that I went down to get my bags.My father and my mother accompany me to my room.My parents were happy for me.Finally I am studying in a public University.
Tears of joy filled my mother's and my face.Mine was more to emotional kind of tears.When I saw my mother had tears flowing down from her eyes, I couldn't control my emotion.Tears flow down from mine too.I hugged my mother.I love her very much.I hugged my father too.My father was pleased with what he witness.
I am strong.That particular day was an exceptional one.
Had a brief ice breaking with both my room mates.After that we prepared ourselves for the start of orientation.
Every new students were shocked to witnessed the change of the mood of the day.Our facilitator was harsh with their introduction.They were harsh with us too.It was pretty obvious that they did not give a good first impression to all of us as juniors.We as juniors were forced to sit on the solid floor.I just don't understand since our college has many comfy chairs they should just make full use of it.
First day was tough.We were forced to sleep late at night.In addition to that the unexpected was unfolding itself for the next day.It became worse.In fact the second day was one of the most unforgettable day in my entire life.Since the first day we were not allowed to take our shower and I realised that they did not mention anything about not letting us to take our shower on the second day, we at the 4th floor happily take a quick shower and prepare ourselves for bed.In fact we were ordered to sleep at 1.15am, me and Chin Yee were already on our respective bed, out of a sudden we heard our seniors came knocking doors and I opened the door.We were told to meet in the hall right away in a very gentle tone.That was the unexpected event.
We went to the hall and meet up with others.Only two rows of males can be seen.I thought only males are needed.We were ordered to run to the car park.We were punished.Our facilitator questioned us.Why all of you are still awake when all of you are supposed to go to sleep?Instead we found out that you people went for shower and some even washed their clothes.Those were late were punished to half stand.
After a long session at the car park, we were ordered to gather at the basketball court.Then here comes the penyelia of the college.We were told that since we did not follow simple order, we will be expel from the University.
I was shocked to hear that.Deep inside I told myself I did not expect things to fold out this way.Tan Hong Ten get expel from University on the second day of University.In fact to be precise I would have two days of Orientation in University Malaya.
How am I going to tell my parents about this.I get expel for taking shower and I was preparing to go to sleep.What a joke that was.
They as our facilitator and the penyelia were stern.They stood on their principles that they had called a bus to pick us up from the college and send us back to our respective homes.
We were bashed with ridiculous questions in our face.Questions that we were not too sure how to answer.
At one point all of us apologised and we promised that we will never repeat the exact mistake again.We were forgiven but under one condition.We were categorised in a special unit.This special unit has to assist the facilitator to control the new students.In addition to that instead of waking up early and gather at 5 in the morning in the hall, we have to wake up early and gather in the hall at 4.30am.We agree to that.
To complete the miserable for the night we have the honour to walk back to the dorm with the grand prize.The grand prize was very ridiculous.We were forced to duck walk back to our respective dorm.All the sitting on the solid floor had given a hard time to my butt, this worsen the pain on the butt.Try and imagine late at night we were performing duck walk back to our dorm.Going downwards and upwards made everything tougher.
When me and Chin Yee arrived back to our dorm we collapsed and take a short nap.It was 3.15 in the morning and we were planning to wake up at 4 in the morning.
It is indeed an unforgettable experience for me -.-
