Event-packed

A whole series of events happened during this two weeks just made my life so much more jam-packed than it already is! We had SUISSE EMEX and most important in IMI's history, our 20th IMI Anniversary which just happened a few days ago. It was the best school party ever!


Let me begin to dissect each of these events to you, bit by bit!


SUISSE EMEX


All the BAs students were required to attend this exhibition in Zurich. I thought it would be just any other event, but I actually had a very good taste of a true blue Swiss event! There were sooooooooooo many freebies and amazing things at different corners of the exhibition! Most are ideas and concepts to bring forth greater profits for companies.


There were also many interesting learning points from the event, for example, I managed to find out more about the largest exhibition and conference area in Zurich. I found out that even tarot card reading can be part of an event, which never really did cross my mind. Most importantly, the implementation of photo booths for the event to boost the event's novelty! These are all simple but great ideas!


One of our beloved lecturer, Mr Lukas Ritzel, did a presentation during the event itself, though it was mainly in german, however, the graphics and design of the presentation helped a little to understand what he is talking about. Can't wait for the Augmented Reality (AR) class he is going to hold soon! It's one of my favorite topic back in Singapore.

You should visit IMI Luzern on Facebook for more pictures of the day itself!


Sports Day
One of the most tiring days so far in IMI! I was part of the events team to execute this event. It was a great learning point of what to look out for during a sports event, especially trying to referee a game itself. SO STRESSFUL! It span a total of 3 days for this event. We had badminton, volleyball, pool, soccer but one of the coolest sport we had was actually, JENGA! Cool or what ?!


Miss Jenga Queen (Geeta)
Best thing was that most of us took quite an active approach for this event!!! One of the best event to me was volleyball, not only because I was the referee but because Singaporeans got the championship! So proud of them! It was definitely a trial for me to test my impartialness during the game! Another top event in my list would be the tug-of-war! It was the quickest battle ever! The champions played it well!!!

iHome visit
This is one of the class excursion that my pathway organized for us. We visited this modern home designed to cater to the futuristic us! There were many cool innovations that made our lives so much easier!!!

I dressed up as Yoda for this event !!! Used simple materials to make myself a robe and thankfully I got a mini light saber from my friend back in Singapore!

It was such a blast! I want to wish IMI the best of her future !!!

Red Bull Event
Another cool event that occurred in Luzern is the Red Bull Flugtag event where different groups of people built up different structures that they used to push and HOPEFULLY fly a certain distance! There were all sort of designs ranging from dragons to bananas to even...Toilet bowls!
Little orange submarine, to fly or to sink ?! LOL!


Dragon age!!!


Balloons balloons!!!


Banana Flight!

It was a human packed event! Never had a chance to experience such an event back in Singapore! 

In a nutshell, never in my life I've been through so many events within a short span of time! This has been an exhilarating experience for me!!! I definitely made the right choice to come to IMI!
