20th September
Hey guys! After the orientation week, I had came through the first study week in UTM.
So basically, we have to study from morning until evening, but in some days we just study until noon only.
A good news is that I don’t have any class in Sunday, so my study day is just from Monday to Thursday haha XD
To be honest, I’m kind a person who prefer classes tight to each other rather than halt by halt.
Alright, so what had I been through for the first week?
Besides lectures, of cuz’ there’re lots of stuffs done daily such as washing clothes, doing revisions and printing notes.
Several activities had been done such as going to the cocurriculum exhibition and meeting seniors too.
Fyi we are free to join any club and activity held in UTM. An advantage of joining cubs and activities is that you got the merit and priority to choose hostel.
This wasn’t in my consideration becuz’ I’m not quite sure whether that is achievable or possible for me to have lots of time to attend so much activity.
Well, it’s time management.
Next thing, as the first year junior, meeting second, their and fourth year seniors is considered compulsory for us to get help and information easily.
Yupe, Chinese juniors will meet with Chinese seniors, if you wonder lol.
So, a few days ago I met my second and third year direct seniors, Sui Juong from Sarawak, Hooi Nee from Perak and Fionni from Melaka.
Sui Juong is a matriks student so he is same age with me, and I don’t call him senior la haha if not it would seem too old for him.
He also has another direct junior called Kevin from Sarawak ^^ In my term I called him as partner la.
One thing of this direct line is that seniors will pass books, notes and past year questions for us so that we don’t need to spend too much money on buying the textbooks.
Talking about that, the price of textbooks are really expensive, just hope that the value could worth for a semester.
Besides direct seniors, last Saturday I also had an outing with CLHS seniors.
Every university will have a council known as Chung Ling Ex-Student Inter Varsity Council (CLESIC) specialised for CLHS graduates.
So, I’m automatically be one of the members of this big family, as I’m still proud of my secondary school, CLHS haha.
We went outside of UTM to Skudai town to have a steamboat + BBQ buffet.
Yupe, just as you thought, I knew more seniors and more friends too, which I think, somehow a connection just built up simultaneously.
About this CLESIC, not much event will be held, mostly around CNY and year break, there would be gatherings.
For me, it maybe not my priority but for sure this is my second home right now.
Welcome to UTM CLESIC!!!
Big Wefie!!
Oh right, how about the living here? Especially the food…
…Hmm, that’s kind a hard question to me haha.
As a Penangite it is a really a displeased experience to not have the taste of Penang food for such a long time.
I can’t say the food here taste awful, just that in my heart, Penang food stays Number One.
Anyway, since I’m really tired of the food inside of UTM, so during non-school days, my friends and I always take the chance to go outside to have lunch or dinner.
And to be honest, since I don’t used to have meals outside, so I couldn’t imagine the price of food are so high.
Well, what could you do? Just hope that I can get use to the different lifestyle here.
Alright, to be honest, I have ample time to do a lot of works and blog right now.
As what seniors said, we have to enjoy throughout the first year.
Well of cuz’ we have to study hard as well lol.
Anyway, I will update pictures soon since life’s getting more and more eventful.
I will talk more soon, bye ;)
