Yesterday, along with some close friends, I attended a workshop called Science Quest 2015 organised by INTI college. The Suubang Jaya campus, refurbished just a few years ago, was new and modern, their facilities up to date. The student helpers took us on a tour around the school and we were stunned by their facilities such as their gigantic auditorium, multi-purpose hall and their organised, equipment-filled labaratories. We were all excited to be able to see and observe the surroundings where we might be to further our education after secondary school.
Though it was very fun and ecstatic to spend time with my friends outside the school compound and also to meet new students from other schools and to form new friendships, the workshop somehow did not quite live up to my expectations. Perhaps my expectations are too high. I thought they would be filling our minds with information and facts that we never knew but that was noot what happened. We just did chemistry experiments like the ones we would have done in school. Of course, they did organised a activity where we had to look for clues on a crossword puzzle which led to us finding the culprit who presumably stole school property. Other than that, i felt like we did not accomplish much during our workshop. It was definately fun, trying our best to solve the puzzle as quickly as possible in order to be the first group to solve the mystery but i felt there was something missing.
Nonetheless, i did not regret attending the workshop as it gave me a chance to be more sociable and break out of my shell. Even though i did not enjoy it as much as i thought, i am grateful that INTI college organised this workshop.
