"Another freezing day; another day to get lost in the maze", I thought as I walked - eyes moving up and down from the map. I figured everyday's probably going to be the same for the induction week, but those assumptions about having a dull day vanished when Mr. Vish appeared through the door of the classroom. My interest peaked when he suddenly unzipped his bag and poured a bunch of queer items on the table.
Strangers from foreign places + a comical lecturer + handful of unusual items ?
ANYTHING CAN GO WRONG !
As the lecturer went on with the instruction, my mind wandered off as my eyes focused on what was on the table; specifically the block of wood with springs. And when Mr. Vish instructed us to start removing those item from the table, I grabbed the block of wood and toyed with it until I realized something..
I've no idea what in the world to do with it !
Yet again another brilliant move from yours truly, brain. In that 30 mins, my team and I brainstormed. Ideas ebbed and flowed through the conversations sounded by voices of panic and anxiety from different people of different backgrounds.
An epiphany struck us just in the nick of time, and all of us managed to salvage from bits and pieces each other's ideas and created the ultimate armor for American Football players. I was dumbfounded that we managed to achieve this unusual task as a team and from the comments of our fellow classmates, it sounded like we did a good job creating a product that people would purchase. Clearly enough it made me realize what the lecturer said was true-- creativity does play a huge role in Business.
