All students gathered in the auditorium and were given a welcoming speech by our senior FMB Program candidates, they shared their practical experiences from the program, and gave us a frank advice i.e. to remain focused, retain learning’s, attend all the lectures, on time submission of assignments, avoid partial group behavior, etc. which was like an eye opener for us.

We were then divided into two groups i.e. GROUP I & GROUP II, I was part of the latter group and therefore we had to remain in the same room, we were then accompanied by Prof Jyotsna Shah and was to improve our verbal ability and confidence, in which we had to address a speech to our group of 35 members on any desired topic , for a minute and half , I learned in this about my group members ideologies and likes , it also influenced me to know about myself in knowing time taken in decision making which was a reality check , simultaneously video recordings were done and replayed in order to correct the correct postures , loudness , expressions etc.

The class of 75 was then amalgamated again, and Sir Mac Fernandes accompanied us with his valuable learning’s on World Competitive Report, which was a reality check for us Indians, as I realized the countries’ economy is in a very bad shape, also something that inspired me was Sir Mac’s fundamentals in life, he believed in

    I am so glad and very thankful to my lecturer that providing clear information about how to do presentation? She provided us with lot of information about presentation which can help us in develop personal skills for presentation. During our last class, we all student are surprised to know that she choose three student for presentation. Through their presentation she said us about positive and negative about presentation. And from that presentation, I found that as Presenter it is very important to engage with audience, asking question, keeping eye contact, using hands, making sure the audience to understand and need to enjoy sharing knowledge on clear topic make presentation attractive and better. From my classmate’s presentation in class, I learned that preparation and practice of verbal and non-verbal communication are very importance for performance as speaker in presentation. Presentation is simply a means of communication which can be adapted to various speaking situation, such as talking to group, addressing a meeting or briefing a team. I remembered that when there was a group presentation in class it was always a pressure in my head. But, now knowing all this I would do my best for upcoming group presentation for this…

    Have you ever experience a moment where you have no idea where you are, and what you would have done in that particular moment? Well I have, and here is my story. It all started in late August of 2009, when millions of children across the country were looking forward to their first day of school. For me, I was not looking forward to start my first year of High School. I still had the middle school mentality. I was concerned that I was not ready for high school. I felt lost, confused, and anxious to this change.…

    30 Years and Success. In society we ironically associate time with success. “By my late forties I should be established and able to settle down and begin enjoying the brighter side of life”. Many people have sequential life goals for themselves; career, marriage, children, early retirement. These landmarks reflect their idea of a suitable life. The only problem is if somehow those factors pop up out of order, they no longer feel like they are on a promising course to a happy life. Personally, I view things much simpler than that.…

    Thinking back to my freshman year at Crandall High School, the first thing that comes to my mind is my first day. I walked in the door, only to be breath taken of how big the school was. I remember thinking to myself I might as well make myself comfortable here. This is where I will be spending my next four years. I tried out for the Gold Dusters and I made the teams. I worked really hard on all of my school work and I hoped to make my parents proud.…

    “Wake up, today is your first day at college, do not be late,” yelled my mom. I did not really want to go, because my heart has lingering memories of high school. Every single moment when I think about college, learning in a new environment, I am scared and nervous. However, the school is not hard like I thought, but kind of interesting. From my first week of college, I have learned lots of great knowledge such as how I read and understand an article, how to write an essay, and what mistakes to avoid in writing.…

    First Day at University

    The much anticipated day had arrived, the beginning of the first week of an experience that had been in the back of my mind for many years never really believing it would happen for one reason or another. I begin university life as a mature student having left school at the tender age of 16 to pursue a career in the Army and go on to complete eight years of service. During this time I was involved in nearly every modern day conflict that many are made aware of through the media. These times were unsurprisingly very difficult yet very rewarding in some respects; some of my experiences are those that most people are only ever likely to be seen in films. It is because of my experiences that I made a decision to change my path in life, and this involved my returning to education firstly at my local college where I successfully completed a national diploma in sports science. It was a huge decision to return to education and found it difficult to adapt initially but with help, and my continuous desire to succeed got me to where I wanted to be, university. From the day I completed my course at college the countdown was on, day by day, week by week, the overwhelming feelings of anticipation and trepidation would continue to build and the early stages brought about feelings of it not being real somehow, the question being asked, ‘Am I really going to university?’, and the answer really only becomes clear as I made my way up the motorway and begun to unload my possessions. The first hours of the first week are filled with many questions, most of which are nearly impossible to be answered immediately, questions like ‘Will I meet new friends?’, and ‘How are people going to react to me?’ Given my life experience you…

    I got up at 6 in the morning to the sound of my alarm clock. Almost immediately I began the routine that I had trained myself for during the week before college began. I sat up, turned off the alarm, drank some of the water I keep by my nightstand for my parched mouth, and proceeded to the necessarium. What I did in there is my own business, suffice to say when I came out 10 or so minutes later, I was a bit lighter, and had a clean shave.…

    It is on August 27th, 2012 that I first went to my university. The impression of the first day completely made my heart miss a beat. I surprised because my university is not as large as I had expected. My university is a small block which is combined with two wings. One is called block A and the other is block B. Not only is the campus small but the parking space for students is also overcrowded sometimes. Despite lacking of land for more constructions, my university has its own distinguished features that are dissimilar to any other universities .So it is highly commendable that my university can seat as many as more than 4000 thousands students each years.…
