Week 4

Alright, as usual in EVERY OIP, the 2nd last week is the most insane. Deadlines were on the last week of the OIP and everyone was rushing their proposal, long report and e-portfolio.

We have not been out of our area except for the trip to Volkswagon Shanghai. VWS was the company who brought auto mobile to China. We saw how cars were made, however I was not a car fanatic, hence I was not able to appreciate the cars. Still!I am a calculative person, and the prices we very cheap compared to Singapore, a Car could be obtained at around SGD40000! Still Singapore is different from China.

I made my formal wear , 9 shirts and a pants and a vest, on top of my suit and 2 shirt. I consider it to be a good investment as it would come to great use during my internship!

The week then was filled with more project sessions and waiting for phone calls for our supposed phone etiquette assessment, and the following happened:
- Mr Dan NEVER called
-Projects we going great, well until there was conflict with my Bcomm long report grp
-I cant resolve the conflict

Still ,I am glad to say, at the time of this post, our long report is very near completion and im preparing for my impromtu speech, which for no reason, im confident of.

Dining etiquette was great, my group did better than most of the group for being able to stretch the timing and come up with a conclusion, the only comment that it was too heavily scripted and we should have been more natural.

Expo was great! I visited many booths and i was very excited to have been allowed to visit India's booth, honestly, I missed seeing indans around, they are actually an indication of home! Maybe because some people in China are tanned enough to pass off as malay. Singapore's booth made me feel special as i was allowed VIP access with my passport, STILL! USA's was the most inspirational, it talked about working together with everyone to accomplish great things! Live up to that american dream! im sure it will create a better world!

Weekends was then filled with more workload, as we had to prepare for our presentations and finish up our proposal. Many of us also tried to finish our long report, but i dont thnk anyone was successful :(
