Hey all, sorry it's been a while since I've posted anything, I've just been swamped with things to do, people to see, and money to make. This post will be about the pre-orientation events that I attended at my wonderful Uni.
Basically I'm going to outline out why it is sooo incredibly fun to attend these wacky events.
Firstly find out what's going on in your schools! what's happening, what are you interested in participating in, pick the ones you really want to go to, or go to all of them if you can. This is a great way to meet new people before everyone starts to solidify into their groups and programs.
Personally when I went to my events I just talked to new people all the time. I attempted to make at least one new friend at each event. Now I know around 8 new people from a wide range of programs within my university, people I probably wouldn't have met had I just gone to class.
Secondly these events were made so that you can get to know your schools better before you start your classes. This will really help save you time and embarrassment the first week, because you'll know where most of your classes are, or at least which building they're in.
Third orientation is one of those things that is guaranteed to be a topic of interest the first few weeks that school starts. This give you the oppourtunity to have something to talk to people about and yet again meet new people, including that cute guy you have your eye on hehe.
All in all, If you want to meet new people this is the way to do it. Go to some orientation events and get out there! You're in university now, it's time to shed your shell and show people the new you!
Ta ta for now, Thi!
