This agenda has the purpose to bring close the relationship between the new members and senior of ESo before the real Funcamp agenda. It was hold on January 17th 2015 near the Lampung University’s GSG. Both the new members or seniors were asked to wear sporty clothes because we want to get fun from many active activities there.

At that day, sun shone brightly and the air was fresh enough. After many people gather beside GSG, we got warming up which was lead by two seniors of ESo. All people do their best to get warm that morning. After aroud 10 minutes warming up, all people did jogging around Lampung University’s campus. There was no wall between seniors and new members. They were mingled each other respectifuly. After around 30 minutes, we were back to beside GSG. While we took a rest, the president of ESo, Taufik Qurrohman, gave a speech welcoming the new members and introducing the senior of ESo who had come there.

After the knowing the seniors of ESo, the new members were asked to have a game related to knowing other new members. So, by bringing a piece of paper, each person asked the other names of new members. After having the name of other new members, they were given a challenge related to their memorization of other new member names. If they were wrong, they got a punishment. Luckily, there was no one got the punishment. So, the game were moved to another game. In the next game, the new members were asked to make a group, and based on that group, they were given an instruction to hold an agenda, it could be a competition or seminar related to ESo. They were so exited and from that games, there were many new and inovative idea came from the new members. 

From those good ideas, the seniors chose the best idea become the winner of that games. Even the prize was not really expensive, but the moment was unforgotable one which will be kept by all of us forever.

WELCOME Poli Tekhnik Unila (POLINELA) English Club (PEC) !!!

It was Thrusday, January 15th 2015  when POLINELA’S English Club (PEC) came to ESo’s homebase. It was the first time for them to come to ESo’s homebase, so it was also the first time we met them. The purpose of PEC’s coming was they would like to share about the organization’s matters and ask about some tips and tricks for holding the English competition since they were still a new English club, so they wanted to know more about holding or taking part in English competitions.

ESo was really happy and proud to be visited by them. We prepared some gorengan and mineral waters to them. PEC sent nine of its members to come to Eso. There were the president and other boards of PEC pesenting some programs of PEC. They were just inagurated some couple days ago before they came to ESo.  But even they were still new, we can sommunicate well and warmly related to each our own work plans.

From the conversation made by PEC and ESo, we got some points related to future meeting. One of them we wanted to have sparing meeting which involved the members of ESo and PEC to train some branch English competition, such as crabble, speech, and debate.  They also asked us to come to their homebase.

That was the coming of PEC, ESo hope that we can come to EC POLINELA too one day in order to strengthen the relation between us.
