It is advice that freshie, Please DO NOT bring your LAPTOP or any valueable item such as, PSP, during your MHS.. We know some of you may get bored and tired, most of the time u spend is in the DSI (UTM main hall), or in kolej hall.. So u won't always get back to your room.
The previous student who stay in your room, might duplicate the door key, for their own purpose, such as stealing, or convenient for them (cuz some scare to loss their key)..
During the MHS, u will walk a lot, morning, evening, night.. As for those who stay far away (Kolej 9, Kolej 10), i think you will have buses provide, so u won't need to walk. It is advice that freshie wear those shoe which is comfortable.
Most important: REST/SLEEP while u can.
As for my experience, i stay in KTR, we always gather in KTR hall every night, till around 12.30 midnight, and wake up at 6.00 morning,
Many of us did not give trouble, but somehow, some people have trouble with their document, such as PTPTN stuff, is really problematic, and bcuz of that all of us stay quite long waiting for the agent to dismiss us. My advice is, Don't play at midnite, Go to SLEEP. Tomorrow still have a tired day to go.
U don't really need to bring money during MHS, cuz they will provide food. breakfast, lunch, teatime, dinner, supper. For those who not enough full, can buy from the "mini market". Don't really need to bring a lot of money.
If i'm not mistaken, you will be wearing Formal, quite offen.. So get 2 or 3 pair ready.. Take care of your shirt nicely, don dirty it, wash it after u think is dirty enough.. Always have extra, as sometime your shirt not dry fast enough during raining or cloudy days.
Your matrik card, is like your IC. Always bring it with you, and do not lose it.. Oh ya, as for the medical check up, i did it in UTM Pusat Kesihatan, and did X-ray at there. Is not that expensive, around RM 25 if not mistaken.
If u have any problem, look for your kolej Agent, they will help u all..
Can ask us any question at this thread, before u left for your MHS. We will try to give you answer, and let you have a idea, wat is going on in MHS later.
Thanks for your detailed advice. Erm about the attire to wear during MHS week, since it's formal so I should wear my leather shoes then? Since the shirts wont be dried in 1 days or two i guess I will have one shirt for 2 days...
