Self Reflection:
The whole experience was great for me. First, I got to know many clubs that I didn’t even know there existed. During this event I was in my second year, since my first year was fully online I had no idea about the activities in UTM. This event helped me a lot learning about the clubs and what they do, I even joined a club which is toastmasters that helps you talk in public and get better at giving talks. Also I learned about some fun activities that I can do in UTM such as kayaking. During the three days of this event the place was so crowded and I met most of my friends and classmates there that I didn’t have the chance to meet during the online period. Overall, it was a fun and beneficial experience.

This was a sports event that was organized by one of the collages in UTM which is KDTI. It consisted of many e-sports and sports including volleyball and basketball. Each team will have to play a game or more during the period of one week until they get eliminated from the tournament. All players and organizers are UTM students. Prices were set for the winners of the tournament.
Self Reflection:
I knew about this event from one of my friends in UTM when he asked me to join his team and compete together. The category that we participated in was the volleyball tournament. We played two games everyday for the first 3 days and got eliminated at the fourth day after reaching top 8. It was a great experience where I got to have the competitiveness feeling and play sports before the mid-term tests start. This event gave me a chance to meet new people and make new friends since the venue KTDI is the closest to school of computing which I study in, hence most of my classmates stay there. Everybody was kind and has sportsmanship.

Venue of program: Dewan Sri Perdana
Organized by: Arabic ISS - UTM
Position: member
Mini Report:
This is an event that aims for gathering people from different nationalities is one place to have Iftar together under one roof. First the event started with simple water and dates to breakfast. Then we went for Magrib prayer. After finishing the prayer we had the main meal sitting on the floor more than a 100 student boys and girls in rows. Once we finished eating activities started such as lucky draws and speeches.
Self Reflection:
This Iftar gathering was a great event to communicate with fellow Arab student in UTM and get to know more people that are not is the same field of study and I probably will never meet in any other places. It felt like a family gathering where everyone there speaks my mother tongue. We don’t get these many chances to have good food and sit with friends to have iftar and praise our religion together since we are usually busy with assignments and tests. It was a great relief from the stress of the university and really peaceful to pray and break our fast together.
