(2nd) Day 15 - "DEADLINE"

Oh yeeesss....today was the big day, not just for me, not just for my groupmates, but to every group in MOI Freshman Year. It was the submission of our videos, through Mini-DV tapes (suffice it to say the export of our video went very well). There were all of us, cramped into LT 25, all 58-60 of us. Before the presentation, Alan gave us Peer Assessment sheets which we have to fill in...mind you, I was as honest as possible in filling in that sheet; my group members really deserve plenty of credit. Then, it was the TIME...Ronald's class went first, then Alfie's...I have to admit, everyone has put in a lot of blood, sweat and tears for this project. When it came to Wahidah's class, we were first. Marj was really creative with the subtitles and credits. After the video, I pretty much expect a lot of negative feedback. But, luckily...there was no questions for us after the video. Maybe we did well:). Anyway, when the whole presentation was over, the lecturers made a few announcements: Tomorrow, between 2pm and 2.30pm, our storyboard and scripts have to be submitted, as well as a brief description of our video concept. Basically, all our paperwork. Luckily for me, not all members of every group have to turn up, and Marj, Kez and Joel have all the needed paperwork...so this is where I bow out...
Overall, I have been exposed to what it is like working in a group of people I may not be familiar with and what is like to work on a major project. It really teaches me to be resourceful, how to cooperate no matter the circumstances, and how to tackle my issues with initiative and speaking up. My groupmates are really the most hardworking people ever and while we have our differences, we still have to work our way around each other as our main focus is on the project. So, guys, it really has been a pleasure working with you all...thanks so much...
SAYONARA.
