Through out the my journey of being a Strategic Communication student, I had learned many things from my friends, classmates, roommates. Those people I met in my university life had taught me a lot of things. There is a quote saying " we meet people for a reason either they are Blessings or a Lesson" . I always believe this quote as throughout my university life as a Strategic Communication student people had taught me lesson either its a lecturer or even normal students.
At first, I had no idea about this course when I applied at UPU as my second option when I was failed at the first attempt. I just applied since the name was fancy and I wanted to study at Sabah or Sarawak as like to explore new people and the especially the natural beauty of the Sabah and Sarawak. At last, I got offered from UNIMAS, that moment I was so happy and worried that my parents wont allowed me study far away from them, but somehow they agreed, since they know I wanted to go out of my hometown. After almost one year I was well-adopted at UNIMAS. But unfortunately, it never last long due to the pandemic.
As for this course we had two assignment which should be done in pair the movie review and Trio assignment as Video Presentation. I had a wonderful, hardworking, dedicated and patient group mates for both my pair assignment as well as for the Trio work
For pair assignment during our Mid-semester break I and my pair Gayathiri had decided to watch the movie together since we had two movies in the list to be selected after watching both the movies via Google Meet together we decided to pick A Hijacking movie since the movie as a flow of 4 phases of negotiation process. Then we decided to separate our parts and work on it. After finishing, we both meet up again to do the editing parts. Its not always been easy to do pair or group assignment as it as physical class where we can meet in person and do the work. For during this time Google Meet had helped us lot. I am so great full to madam since after madam teaching us the stage 3 of negotiation we realized that we had done minor mistake in our pair assignment, and madam allowed us to change it without penalizing any marks. Thank yo so much madam. 🙏
For my Trio assignment which was a video presentation I had dedicated and hardworking partners like Lee Jia Min and Yuhaniss , I personally loved to work with them. They were always ready to meet up at Google Meet since as a video presentation work we have to meet at least once before attempting to do the real one. Actually, we had a discussion session, trial session and both of them cooperated well for that. So its a blessing having them as my group members who was always ready to do the works. Even due to my tooth ache we had to delay our shooting process, but they still cooperated with that. I am so thankful to having them as my teammates.
