Education fairs quotes bonanza

Spent the first day of work on Friday at the Main Campus.....after Micheal agreed to let me work....

Micheal: Whats ur name ah?
Me: Ikhsan
Micheal: OUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.........
Me: Huh?? why ouhhhh
Micheal: *stares blankly at computer*

It was my first time working at the main campus....and boy was it tiring. Spent the morning setting up the welcome table, busy greeting visitors, showing visitors the way to the toilet, and gaze with amusement at seeing people around me fanning themselves frantically with flyers coz it was so hot while I stood there still...grinning at them with the 2 layers of shirts I was wearing.

Then in the afternoon while standing at the welcome table, our boss Micheal drops by...

Micheal: Is that a white shirt you are wearing inside?
Me: yeah
Micheal: Ok can you do me a favor, can you go over to Inti and attend the talk on Pre-University programmes....I need you to spy on them.....see how many people attending the talk
Me: Yeah of course! *clinching my fists with delight*

I came in half an hour late into the talk....my first time into the Inti classroom...and I spent the whole talk looking left, right, back, front counting how many people were inside....and there was once the cameraman inside the room gave me a quzzical look -.- .

The rest of the day was.......boring....so I see no reason to blog more about Friday.

Well you may think I'm gonna write some damn freaking long and dull post about the education fair which took place the next day but newww ....instead I'll just write some memorable quotes from various convos with different parents during the whole course of the 2 days in midvalley.......

This Napei edu fair has been by far THE BEST education fair I've been to so far. It was a jam-packed 2 days, a lot of talking, a lot of new friends, and most importantly, a lot more experience. Working alongside the second son of Tan Sri Loy Hean Heang....or was it son of the son (I forgot -.-) as well as a bunch of other super awesome student helpers at midvalley was definitely a privelege! I cant wait long enough for the next one...where I'm hoping my best bud can join me in on the fun *ahemcoughDoraisingamcoughahem*


P.S still waiting for friend request number 13 :(
