27 July 2015, The first day i set my foot on Binus. I feel a little obnoxious, because it’s my first time in Binus and i don’t have anyone that i can relied on. All of my old friends go to another university and some of them are out of java island. Still i must fulfill my dream to revolutionise indonesia gaming industry.So i have no other choice but to make new friends in here. That day i met some new people, they were nice but i still miss my old pal.After few minutes chatting with my new friends, we’re told to go inside the room , inside we met our BC (Buddy Coordinator) they’re nice too.The First thing we do is intruduction, why we chose this major. When it’s my turn i told everybody that i want to work at valve. The truth is i don’t really know if i want to work at valve or make my own company.
The next day, it started at 8 a.m, but i arrived at 6 cause it takes 1 hour from home to reach here if i’m not stuck in traffic jam.Today i’m wearing white shirt and black trousers, it’s a must and every new students wore it so we could be identified by other binus student that we’re a freshmen. Inside class we were taught by our BC about 4 years ahead, starting from orientation , enrichmen, peforming, and achieving achievement.
We were told to bring 2 balloons with us. At first i thought my friend already reserved 2 balloons for me, but i forgot to write my name in his list, so he didn’t know that i want to reserved the balloons. i couldn’t blame him from my own mistakes, so i have to think another way around.The first thing that come to mind is making my own balloons, but it uses hydrogen instead of helium. I thought it would be a great idea, then i recall that hidrogen is flammable, in other words if i bring that balloons, it’s the same as i bring a time bomb. So i tried to ask my parents if they have friends or anyone that know about balloons vendor. Lucky enough my cousins know a balloon guy and that balloon guy sold his balloon in front of Binus every year. I manage to booked four balloons for myself and in case my friend forgot to bring the balloons i can give him/her my balloons. The balloons were use for freshmen ceremony which later released when it’s done. After the ceremony we’re guided by our BC to Anggrek campus.From that day onward our Orientation will be held there.
The next day is by far the shortest orientation we got. It only last for two hours approximately. That day we’re told about how we do our test and how to print and take care of our KMK .
On the fifth day we went straight to the auditorium. In there every UKM in Binus advertise their activity, starting from computer club to outdoor activity. At first i was confuse because there are so many UKM that i can choose.But i then decided to choose bgdc because it’s literally like GAT offspring. After the show we were divided to our respective religion, and guided to separate room so we could fulfill our spiritual needs.
The sixth day or we could say our last day on general orientation. Today we could register our self to the UKM that we wanted. Before we do that we went to HIMTI room, where we could purchase HTTP tickets and if we want to be part of HIMTI community we could sign our self up, but i didn’t want to sign up ,cause… i don’t know,i just don’t feel like it. After that our BC tour us around campus then we could sign up to UKM that we have chosen. I went straight to bgdc, but unfortunately i don’t have enough money to sign up, disappointed i have no choice but to wait for the next expo. Finish signing up we met up in front of HIMTI room so we could go together to Syahdan Hall. Inside we sang our yell yell and having our last moment together as an orientation group. We saw our BC sing their yell yell too,it’s funny seeing them dancing as a group but not synchronize at all.After all of that my group get together and took a picture for a memento, quite sad but life must go on.
