first day at Vet faculty UPM

A week of orientation in UPM and we finally were at the faculty's main assembly hall - Dewan Veterinar A (DVA) .  The faculty was made of two buildings, one the animal science and nutrition and the other- veterinary medicine wing which had a full vet clinic attached to it. 
We; the freshies were ushered into the hall with seniors already in . It was a get to know session, the dean made his opening welcome speeches where he also introduces the faculty's heads of department. 
Then the DVM student's council president elect made his welcome remarks. 
After all the pleasantries and speeches we were allowed to mingled with the seniors ( rather they came to us ) to get to know us better.
That year; the intake was 21 students and i knew that there was another Sarawak guy and one from Sabah making a total of three from the Borneo island. We made friends rather easily thanks to a few ex-dip in our class who are well aware of the what and how to adjust to the new life in campus. 
we were brought around  the faculty to familiarize ourselves for this will be home for the next 5 years of our undergraduate life. 
We were also given our semester time table , we had to take a total of 26 credits hours minimum per semester. Lectures from Monday to Friday at 8am to 5pm everyday and weekends will be practical/attachments .
