Hari pertama meghadiri kelas 'Visual Technology' ini segalanya samar-samar dan pelbagai teka-teki bermain di fikiran. Dr. baru, persekitaran baru, kenalan baru, perkara-perkara baru dan serba serbi baru membuatkan kami (Zaharah, Fatimah dan saya) agak canggung.

  Project Presentation 

Semuanya amat menarik dan mengujakan! Walaupun kami perlu mencari sendiri maklumat dan dipersembahkan kepada rakan-rakan, tetapi kami anggap itu sebagai satu latihan yang akan menambahkan pengalaman dan pengetahuan kami. Kami sentiasa bersedia!

Selain dari itu,  perancangan untuk 'Outing' sedikit diluar jangkaan. Jadi kami mencadangkan tempat yang hampir tetapi bermakna, iaitu Tanjung Balau, tetapi malangnya tidak mendapat sambutan. Apakan daya 'Hujan emas di negeri orang..'

Di akhir waktu pembelajaran, segala rasa canggung terurai terutamanya kerana Dr. kami yang amat peramah dan merendah diri. Thank you Dr...
