Frosh Orientation Days

I'm in the Talks Committee of the Frosh Orientation Program, those who are responsible students of orienting the first year students. Wow, I'm improving. Even I couldn't believe I'd be in this kind of organization in which your social life must be healthy... kinda proves I still have hope when it comes to my failed attempts to be a good conversationist... or is it that I'm just picky of the people I'm talking to?

Three days passed and I kept on orienting and lecturing students, mainly froshies, to have a knack about the school they are in. I'm not saying I'm a devoted and loyal student to my school, but I like my school. It's really good. The Frosh Orientation program was very tiring, then the next day I have to work my best for a good last working day as a student assistant. I was very tired, I mean it.

I oriented transferees during my first day. They were really fun and to some of them, I get to be really close even if I was just able to be with them for a day. This was my very first time to orient... and transferees are known to have already extablished an ego of being a college student and is suppose to sound hard (I was actually getting nervous when I was assigned to the transferees rooms), but no, it was actually the best of the rest. I get to enjoy all of the orienting flow, even the tour.



I oriented a multimedia arts block the second day. They're quieter than the transferees though, obviously. But I get to be attached once again and I even promised that I'll visit their block whenever I have the time and whenever I'm near their place/room. The funny part is that one of them is acting sick because he wanted to leave. The end of the story - after we were done talking for about half-an-hour to keep on persuading each other - is that he went back to the room where we are orienting. He's not serious into acting to get out though, he's just really good fun, actually. I love you all, DV4 students!



I oriented consular and diplomatic affairs, my course, block L1W (I was L1X last year) the last day. It was okay since we did more games than the usual, but it wasn't that fun compared to the first two days. The only good thing I can tell is that the food and snacks were way better than the past orienting days. This last day ended fast, actually. Almost all of the froshies are older than me yet some of them said I sound old because of how I speak and they're childish. Indeed, they are... or I'm just too mature? But they were the once who kept in touch and ask questions. I just dunno if I'll visit them or not, but I'll try since the block and I have the same course, anyway.



Although, as I've said, it was tiring, I get to enjoy it at the same time. I gained new enjoyable experiences, meet new people and know them deeper... just like what I was really searching. It was like I was breathing a new good air and I want to oblivi-ate myself.



I hate it when I find some people stupid. As in so stupid near to being an idiot. Like they have no idea what the hell are this and that things... either in terms of being a life coach or in technical/academic stuffs. I give my considerations that it might be due to lack of experience, refusal to undestand because of some moments that aren't delightful, overconfident enough to deny knowledge from other people or just by being a plain innocent twerp. Maybe when someone so bright talks to me will take me as an idiot because I think I'm being arrogant now. And being arrogant is one of the few reasons why people never learn and evolve.
