Last week was a memorable week for me since I was made responsible for the biggest extra-curricular event ever conducted by my department – Business Communication Fair or the famous BC Fair (truthfully, I coined it so after coming back from PC Fair two weeks ago).

When I was appointed as a Director for the so-called BC Fair last month, I had no idea how I was going to direct it. I was not sure whether I could make this event a fair, a sure-heboh type of carnival. The ‘best’ part was that I had no secretariat. So, it was a one-man show with no clear-cut communication and organization. Ironically, it was the event for business communication students where communication and organization are highly crucial. What a good cheater, opps, teacher.

So when it finally started last Monday in the College Great Hall, I was worried, thinking that the students’ booths would be customerless, that the event would be doomed to a total fiasco. However, everything went so crazily well beyond my expectation. So many visitors unexpectedly came that it made wonder where the hell they came from. It was really a sure-letop fair. It was like a 1976-Corona car suddenly turned into 2006-Honda Jazz car. Expect the unexpected, people say, but this unexpected turnout was so good it made me perplexed and intoxicated. The students made it all happen and happening. It was crazy. It was like a wild party.
