wind up the knot..
Dated last July 21, 2010 I together with the other Institute of Computing students meet our way.
It was a day of laughters and giggles.We were able to learn new things, found our own interpersonal skills,and somehow be able to manage our anger, mold and make ourselves believe that we are a LEADER.For me, it is very flattering to know that the group where you belong is extremely talented, skilled and academe.I, myself is of great honor and privilege for becoming apart of this college. Other students from other colleges declares that they are the great and claims to be the best. But as far as I heard and as far as I know, that the Institute of computing students are the cream of the crop of our beloved university. No one shall say that it is a form of boasting. No it's not since it from the legal office of UGTO who declared it during every freshmen orientations.
That is why, working and being with this people is of great fun and learnings. After the half day seminar,
we were divided into 12 groups with members randomly selected. In out group name Pink Cute pig (penk kyowt peeg),I only have one close friend. Although I am handed by this situation, I never thought of having a difficulty in gaining new friends. As what i had expected, I gained a very good one. Some of them are computer science students and some are information technology students from the evening program. We could not deny the fact that there is somehow a "tension" between the day and evening program. That, thus group could do better at this one and the other as well could do better that the other. thus saying that we as a student of the same college do compete which is not a good symbol of unity leading to progress.
It is during that time that I know, that we could really be a good friends. In fact, I am not with my close
friend during the activity.. I was with my new friends. It is of great fun doing the activities with them. Our first
stop was named "Build me up". It was a group of nails that needs to be hang up with just one nail standing as a foundation on a the ground. At first, we were quit and tried to experiment it, until such time that in less that 3 mins we were able to finish the game, thanks to kuya renz. Just like the nails, we should also be united and should work hand in hand. As what my other groupmates shared that there should not be a gap between each department since we have our own skills and personality. No bounds and no lapses.the other one was the spider web. It was really a hard activity.There were lots of ideas that keeps on flowing that we ended up sabog and walang nagawa. So be it, we did not able to finish it and failed 10 points. well, thats life, we win some we lose some. The second to the last was the "trust fall". at first, its seems to be so easy. I even thought that it would be of fun and amazing experience. When one of mu group mates is about to fall, he/she doubt
if we could catch him/her. I used to say that, it's just okay, just trust us and fall. But when it was my turn, I really really really really really find it hard. Although I am very much sure that they could catch me if I fall aside from the fact that they really have to [lol], I really have a hesitant feeling from nowhere. I guess that the fact of letting your self fall is difficult. but I still made it and as expected my heart beats as fast as it could and sounds like a speaker of its final maximum volume. wew, but I love the feeling.
The last one was the helium hoop. Good for the background, helium is the lightest element.All we have to do is to let the hoop down with each of out pointer finger. Seems so easy right? But as we tried it, funny it may be but the hoop is going up! I can't help it but keep on laughing. For me its a strange feeling. You are giving you best force of lowering the hoop and yet its result is far different to our goal. We had it several times,we were keep reprimanded by our facilitator but we cant still make it. It still goes up and side by side but it never goes down. But we did extra efforts and taught ourselves to keep our focus and concentrate. At the end, we finally made it. Though it is light but it seems that it is the most heavy equipment we have for the day. Mas lalo kaming sumaya knowing that we were just 3 groups who made it...hahahaha
It was really an amazing day! A day full of fun and excitement. As a final say IO could attest that I had able to conquer the goal and mission of our seminar workshop: Cut the differences, wind up the knot. meet and gain new friends.I already gained friends and get to now them. Now my next step is to maintain my friendship with them and let grow all through the years...
