Project of the year is...OVER!

Before I begin, the song rice crop is so relevant to the topic I'm doing. lol. So it shall play a part in tis post

Yo everybody. today was such an important day. Because it was my poster presentation and of course many others. Have been revising the script for days. Talking to a wall like a retard.

Even on the bus, I began reciting the points over and over again. One may even think I'm going bonkers. Upon reaching, was 1 hr earlier and went to the library, sat at one corner and began to practice. Fortunately I took photos of my script through my com and was able to browse as and when I wanted to.

Received an Sms from meifang. Met her at cafe galilee. And both of us was duper nervous. Coz its not 1 assesor but 3! 6 eyeballs staring at u, isnt tat scary?

We went to the agora hall which you can see over here. This is a laptop station for taking attendance but we don need.

Tis is the blue tag station we got to paste the blue tag on the poster and paste it on the exhibition.

Tis is where we are gg to present.We sat down and I kept reading through my mini script in the hp over again. Btw I saw haidir, hui shan and zack. lol they finish presenting. how wonderful.Finally its 3p.m. time to head in. Hi 5 wif mei fang and off we go to our designated booth.

When I went to my booth, I saw 2 familiar face. One is my ex-classmate and the other is my ex-facilitators or lecturers wadeva u call it for engineering cost decision module. Haha once I see that chucky look a like faci. i calm down alot.

At least one of the assesor is someone familiar.=)
When my ex -classmate was presenting, I pasted the poster on the board. And juz stood there and look at the poster and silently revising it again.

Here are the posters. so basically we have to elaborate and explain what we are doing. And I'm doing on the analysis of the effects of rice shortages and solutions in the world *particularly asia*The Introduction *click to enlarge*
4 main causes of rice shortages *click to enlarge*The effect it has on Asia. A combination of first world and third world country tat shows extreme cases of rice shortages. The next poster is how it affect S'pore. *click to enlarge*Finally would be the recommendations and solutions. The wild ideas to solve. Chucky faci likes the ricescraper *poster 7* which is my personal favourite too. The future of agricultural farming.And conclusion. *click to enlarge* When its my turn, I juz throw pass/fail behind my mind. And my goal is to inform and educate them about the rice crisis.

Ok initially I was feeling jitters here and there. Bt as I started to pick up the momentum. I began to feel like I'm making a political speech for an election like barrack obama/john mccain to tell my ppl what is happening ard the world and how can I help them tide the crisis. Its an enjoyable feeling. I noe i'm alil psychotic bt it feels gd to have audience sitting down and listening to u talking. next up hong lim park.jk.

Hence, I just keep talking and talking and the scripts tat I thght I would forget would juz come to my mind like how a broadcaster uses the Tv in front of them to read the news. Everything went naturally. In the end I tk 45 mins and meifang left 1st. haha. maybe its too long. lol.

Fortunately they did not ask many questions. Only 1 frm each of them. Which at least I can ans back.

Besides the chucky look a like faci, there is a guy faci and an faci tat act likes an auntie. -_-
My faci says the thing is do smth tat they are nt familiar and tis gives u an advantage and smth interesting so it will grab their attention.

Juz reach hme and ching asked me to check the assesors comments. Here it is. When seeing tis, my mind is at peace. Seems like the assesors liked the wild ideas. lol.
All the efforts have paid off. phew. thank everyone who wish me. u noe who u r. tq.

Afterwhich went to meet fiq, raudah and sarah and raudah's younger brother. Ate at long john silver. Discuss abt the PP and driving. Haha was interesting.

The cajun chicken don taste as good as it looks. Syafiq and I headed to bugis afterwards. Walked ard. He wants to buy bdae present while me juz relaxing my mind.

Finally rmb to eat finish the rice U take.

Because variable climate change will result to major harvest failure more frequent. And tis would have double or triple the effects it has had on us now. Lets nt take rice for granted.
Wait till u hav to wake up at 5am juz to join a rice queue like the cambodian boy in the poster. tata.
