gathering of bacterias

A group of bacteria from different countries and different places around Indonesia are placed in the same group, bakteri! In this group, we have staphylococcus aureus (Ras), mycobacterium tuberculosis (Sonny), corynebacterium diphtheria (Sinyo), Escherichia coli (Andi), clostridium tetani (Eunice), klebsiella pneumonia (Nutfi), pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pamela), streptococcus pneumoniae (Dannys), haemophillus influenza (Dita) and streptococcus pyogenes (Ririn). Wow! A lot of bacteria! ^.^ I wonder how we survived together during the past three days. We even manage to work together as a great team, keeping everyone in the team feel at home. I still remember when I heard of our names, I wonder why I’m called Clostridium tetani but anyhow, others group members’ names is also so confusing and funny! We had a great time working together on the assignments given to us. When we were asked to draw a poster on skeleton and a poster of saving the world yesterday, all of us work as a team to finish up the group work in time. We divided ourselves and started our job quickly. The skeleton has so many people’s hand drawing on it and I just can’t help thinking of what happened when we’re drawing! From the top to the bottom of the skeleton, everyone drew a part of it. As for the poster, we planned out what to draw on the poster and everyone drew a part of the poster too! The same situation happened to the colouring of the poster too. As for today, we went around the campus to visit all the associations and societies in order to expose us to the TRUE university. We had games in all the booth that the society and associations set up. The funniest thing throughout the three days happened today. Our first visit to the first booth, BEM, ended up so embarrassing to all of us. The game that we played, three people walking on the same sandal ended with our group members, Andi, Sinyo and Sonny falling, not even manage to move a step! Hahahahha! We had a great time today and hopefully my new found friends will not forget us when we start our studies.
