Secret War Journal[14 February 2012]
I am just returned home from a hectic day! :D
Before I begin anything on what had happened today, let me first wish you all a
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!
Unfortunately, my plan to give out chocolate wafers which I bought a month ago was not very successful because everyone, including me, was busy.
Don't worry! I plan to still give out tomorrow, I hope. XD

Meanwhile, I would like to special these people who giving me a Valentine's gift. Thank you! =)
IDA Infocomm Club Teachers' Seminar 2012
Today I helped out at an IDA event called the Infocomm Club Teachers' Seminar 2012.
I am not a key member of the event though, just helping out with ushering, registration and collection of forms at the event of the event.

To me, the more interesting thing that happened during the event would be during the ushering.
I guess this is partly due to the fact that this is the first time I am helping out at events as an usher. Unlike Johnston and Joan, being Student councillors in junior college, I had no idea what to expect for this role.
Thankfully, the teachers who were attending this event were friendly and I actually had fun doing that role. For some reasons, doing this role remains me of the MPS sessions that I had been helping out. It made me wonder if I would this week's session because I would be going over to Siew Yan's house for steamboat instead.
Hmm, let's no sidetrack. :)

After my usher role, I went over to help out at the registration booth. I had a nice chat with Zaliyah. :)
I guess this was perhaps my most challenging part, feeling helpless in addressing some of the teacher's queries. I suppose it is my fault for not being aware of the technical aspects of the Infocomm Club. XD
My secondary school decided, at the last moment, to not attend. Frankly, I was not expecting much, since most of my juniors during my school days had mostly graduated and my teachers-in-charge then had since left the school. I was still expecting to re-connect with my CCA though. Pity.

Personally, one of the coolest feature of this seminar would be the talk by AutoDesk. I never thought they AutoDesk would actually give a talk in Singapore! Okay, I knew AutoDesk were committed to talking with customers but wohoo! Hahas!
Like I was saying to Joan, it made me feel like setting up a Infocomm Club all of sudden. :P
In addition, I really appreciate how IDA makes the effort to come up with findings and what's in store for all of us for this year. I think it is a feature that sets the CCA apart from other CCAs, (okay, not including NCC).
Unfortunately, I did not have the time to actually attend the talks and presentations for the event. Oh well...

Today, some of my fellow interns were telling me that they were considering working in IDA. Hey, how awesome is that? :D
