The first event I joined is “Good Luck on Your Midterm”. As a volunteer, it was on Feb 8, 2016 and it was before our midterm exam.
This was the first big events I attended during this semester, which also gave me much pressure on this event, as a Chinese saying said that “When doing anything, the beginning is always most difficult.” First of all, our activity leader Ryan divided the volunteer into different groups, based on personal preference. I was in Ninja Ball’s (a ball made by flour, and balloon; the function of it is to help students get rid of high stress before the midterm exam by throwing the Ninja Ball) group. Since I was absent for the previous meeting and I had no idea about how to make this ball in such a short time.

During this event, I met a second-year biology and science student, B, who came from Indian. He told me that is the 10 + time to do volunteering in university and he was interested in it, by the way, he attended the previous one as well. In other word, I received plenty of useful suggestion based on the former experience and he accepted all the questions that I had or the visitors had. After the activity, I find that although I live in my university for roughly 8 months, there still have some places I am not familiar
