Mini Report

I joined an event hosted by Kelab Bahasa Mandarin UTM which held for the purpose to celebrate the Lunar New Year in 2020. This event is to promote Chinese culture to the all students from all races in UTM. I was involved in the position in gaming section which is Origami. In preparation period, my group member and me are try to our best to search online about way to DIY Origami by using used Red Envelope. We found some website and Youtube. Then, we had tried our best to learn from online to cut the Red Envelope in other to make the participant to make the Origami easier. After we decided the pattern of the Origami wanna let the participant make, we had do some rehearsal about how to make the Origami to show to the participant. Then, after we master in the process to make the Origami, we start to brainstorm about our booth designing. During this brainstorm section, all of us give a lot different opinion on how to design our booth. Yet, we still able to communicate in very peace and nice way. Finally we all decided to design the booth using the Origami made by our participant during the date. Which mean we decided to prepare a white board with our drawing a mouse and let the participant paste their Origami on it to design in the Mouse shape due to 2020 is a "Mouse year" for the Lunar calendar. After all preparation, we get a bad news which is the increase gradually in the cases of the Covid-19 patient in our country. Then, our event had to be cancel due to this Movement Control Order (MCO).

Self-Reflection

Even though the event was cancelled due to this Movement Control Order, I still feel very happy. This is because during this preparation for the event I had learn to communicate with stranger and those stranger become my friend also. In this preparation, I also face a lot challenge but thankfully my group member always give their perfect teamwork to help and give me a lot of the view and suggestion. Then, in this event I also learn that time management is very important.  This is because i need to manage my time make sure enough of revision and time to complete the course work. Then, in this event also i notice that making a Origami is not that easy as we seen in the video. I feel i am very lucky to had this chance to learn more new thing in this event. At the end, I still feel very thankful to perfect group members that showing me their good teamwork and ability in solving different challenge.
