This video talks about my experience as a data center engineer at IP ServerOne Solutions data center department.

Participating in the planning and execution of the Mooncake Festival and Cultural Night event has been an incredible experience for me. Looking back, I feel a sense of personal growth and fulfillment. Being a part of the program department allowed me to develop some valuable skills. I had to be organized and coordinate different aspects of the event, from arranging performances to recruiting talent. It taught me the importance of paying attention to details and working as a team to overcome challenges. 

Before the event, I found it quite tiring as there is a lot of tasks under the program department that had to been completed. One of the biggest issues that we face is the lack of manpower during the preparation and the main event. I realized teamwork is a crucial element in organizing an event as it felt so overwhelming when there is a lack of manpower. I learned that capitalizing on each person's strengths and abilities is important. We communicated openly and transparently, ensuring that everyone was aware of the tasks at hand and had the necessary support to complete them. It was through our collective efforts that we were able to accomplish everything that needed to be done.

In conclusion, being involved in the Mooncake Festival and Cultural Night event was a journey of personal growth and unforgettable experiences. I gained skills, made connections, and learned the power of teamwork and cultural appreciation. I will carry these lessons with me as I continue to explore new opportunities and make a positive impact wherever I go.

In this event, I was suddenly tasked with temporarily taking over my leader's position as my leader was sick at that time and unable to attend the event physically. My leader has assigned me my tasks and told me to conduct the event the same as the previous one. As this is the first time ensuring the event is running smoothly on my own without guidance, I found it to be challenging. I would need to think in the position of my leader and deal with unexpected situations. Taking charge of the event provided me with an opportunity to hone my leadership skills. I had to demonstrate confidence, assertiveness, and effective communication with my team members so the event would face lesser problems. This experience allowed me to grow as a leader and increased my self-confidence in handling responsibilities and solving problems.

This event has allowed me to have a first glimpse of activities in university and what the club is able to produce. As a committee member of PTUTM involved in organizing the Annual Gathering event, I had the opportunity to play a role in ensuring its success. Looking back, I am glad with the work we accomplished and the impact we made on the freshman students and the club as a whole. Throughout the planning and execution process, I actively assisted the program director. I offered my support, provided valuable input, and even temporarily take over the director's role in some small decisions. By working closely with the program director, I gained a deeper understanding of event management and developed my organizational and communication skills. I enhanced my leadership skills, developed effective teamwork strategies, and improved my ability to adapt to unexpected situations. 

After completing this PSDA project with my teammates, I have learnt and revised a few topics on this course. Especially the Chi Square test as I was tasked to complete the test for our project. During this project, I have also learnt about the importance of teamwork as this project will not be able to be completed by just one person. Discussion and opinions from each other are important. By finishing this PSDA project, I hope I will be able to do data analysis and carry out tests on a data set.
