The Awesome Microbe Carnival

Rehearsal day 18/11/15

On that day, everyone was so busy and Dr. Wan looked so worry because there are a lot of things stll not yet settled especially the golden history tunnel. Although we knew all these were rush and crazy, the only way we can do is to go ahead with everything. Secreteriat were dividing our own job on that day and we found that we need the help from the post graduate student to in charged of the exit counter. I straight away called Kak Fatin and she is ok with that. I felt so grateful to Kak Fatin and her friends for their help.

1st day 19/11/15

We had SSK lab at 8am but we still need to reach Panggung Percubaan at 7.30am to set up. Our poster looked so beautiful. We started to decorate our poster booth with some ribbon and balloon. After Lian Sing reached our poster booth, then we only went to our class because Lian Sing will took over our poster booth during our SSK class time. Thanks to our SSK lecturer because she willing to release us earlier to our carnival. At first, we were quite passive. We seldom approached to the visitors. I think this was because we were not yet ready and prepared. Haha. I some more walked way from my poster booth to visit other game booth , of course I knew my group members will be stood in front of our poster booth. I felt like in charged of game booth was more interesting.
After that, May Ling and I then in charged of the registration counter. We found that people kept ignored the registration counter and entered through the exit door. I think this was because we didn't labelled "registration counter" and we also didn't labelled any "entrance" or "exist" at the door. There were no any big problem on the registration counter. The people on the first day was too many and caused the booklets are not enough to distribute.

2nd day 20/11/15
On the second day, our poster booth will be jugded. We felt quite nervous. We kept practising what we are going to present later. Before our judgement, there were quite a lot of visitors come to our booth compared to the first day. This made us more used to what we are going to present later because we kept repeating the content of our poster. Dr. Suriana and Dr.Amalia praised the idea of our poster and video were creative. After the SCL judgement, I will then again in charged of the registration counter. Today visitors were not much compared to yesterday, but our goodies bag are finish distributed. There were few students ask for goodies bag, but we only can apologized. There were also few master students who rejected to write down their name for registration. They only willing to write down their name after we explained to them the purpose of writing down their name is to count the number of visitors.

Throughout this carnival, for my part, I am not doing my best. I will do better in the next carnival because finally I understood the job scope of secreteriat. Thank You Dr Wan, Kak Syaza, Radin, Mokry and everyone who helped me in this carnival. This carnival will not be that successful if without you Dr.Wan. My friends are all amazed by this carnival and they hope for The Awesome Microbes Carnival 2.0 !
