Took Penampilan Diri & Etika Sosial 4 my co-curriculum this semester. I expect to learn more 4 this co-cu, but in the end, it was out of my expectation.
We only learned some theories(i.e. how to greet others, attire for formal & informal function, table manners..), nothing much.
In order to evaluate us, we had to attend a formal dinner, that covers 30% for the overall course, just to apply what we'd learned in theory.
In Baju Kebaya. Before heading to the dinner.
Together with Lovena, in her blue Punjabi suit.
Thank Lovena & Chai May 4 styling my hair. Not forgetting KeXin also(don't have a picture together with her), thank her 4 doing the make-up for me.
Us, in formal attire.
Foreign students from China.
Foreign students from Africa, if not mistaken.
When the evaluation was over, the whole atmosphere changed! Everyone was so relax & relief. A Malay girl sat opposite me immediately roll up her sleeves and said: 'Makan dengan tangan saja lar'!! Hahaha...

The dinner was held last thursday, at Dewan Jamuan UTM. It was a buffet dinner.
Everyone in the dining hall was so quite. Looking so tense..so well-behave, trying so hard to pretend!
First time in my life, I ever felt so uncomfatable to had a dinner. Super Un-natural instead of Supernatural. Felt so lost!! Suddenly don't know how to eat, like a baby. Have 2 start learning everything from the beginning.
So many restrcitions. Need to behave well, jaga image, jaga our table manners, need 2 use napkin. So leceh, so troublesome to had a proper meal.

Now you can see the true colours of everyone.
Just came back from Singapore yesterday. Attended a concert at Marina Bay. Will update more in my coming post. So difficult to on-line recently, totally can't detect WifiUTM.
In the midst of study week now. Finals is coming, but I'm still not in the mood to study! Struggling hard to FOCUS, FOCUS & FOCUS....
