Subjectif…

Ah. The hallowed Overseas IndiEventure; THE “excursion” every IP student looks forward to during their tenture in the VIP programme. Obviously my batch was no exception, especially since our lackluster IP1 Beyond Borders trip to Pahang, Malaysia. (In all fairness, our Pahang trip was fun and our level got to know each other better and bond. However, we did feel a teeny bit of indignation as our seniors had been to places such as Korea for their Beyong Borders trip.) With destinations such as Berlin, Dubai, India and Thailand, it was no wonder the entire level was hyped up with anticipation for our trip. Alas, good fortune seemed to elude us! One week into the prepatory programme for our trip, H1N1 reared its ugly head. The Berlin, Dubai and Thailand trips due to take place on the first week of term3 were put on hold till the situation could be assessed, while the India trip which was in November was to take place according to plan. However, as the situation worsened, the India trip too was cancelled. This news was greeted with much dismay from disappointed batch mates. Resigned to our fates, we could only sigh and hope for another opportunity to gather as a cohort and go overseas. (OCIP maybe?)
