IT'S TERM 2!

Goodbye Term 1, Hello Term 2!

Now for term 2, we have some major objectives for IPW lessons of term 2:

- Complete the brochure for the semester's presentation.
- Complete Day 1 and Day 2's itinerary with details on each event.
- Complete the meal plans and plans how the events should be carried out.
- Prepare the itinerary and decide, analyse it, and make any minor and major last corrections before the presentation.

For semester 2 mostly would be EDITING and some is doing the rest of the whole tour. That's all for term 2, if i miss out any, please tell me (especially team mates).

- Jovi

Week 10 Reflection - Jovi

Since we've done our 1/4 of the whole itinerary. I've asked Zachariah about the brochure and he said he's designing it. But however, we need to speed up our process. In which, we need to look more at those websites, those webs with good details and ideas for our project. Anyway, for Yong Yi's case, I need to get some events to let him manage. But currently he's doing the amazing race planning and we've planned for the amazing race to be on the second day.

For you hao's case, he didn't know much and I think it would be better now if he got his macbook (he has it now though). With the macbook, we can do research together and need not worry about his case. :) That's a relieve! :D
