In my experience, I
think that the Buddy Program depended mostly on Raphy’s (FTA) taste. Some
people wanted to go to a karaoke while others wanted to go to a café. So, he
had to decide where we should go.
I expected active
activities like games but there was just small talk. There were so many people
but not enough opportunity to talk with each other. Just the people who sat
next to Raphy were able to talk to him. I felt like there was a limitation or
boundary to be close to him. I think there were many people who wanted to be
close to him but they just couldn't.
And also there was
another FTA but I did not know what her name was even if we were in the same
café. Another problem is that there were some people who just played with their
smartphones and did not take part in the conversations. Maybe next time, I hope
that only a considerable number of students would gather together with the FTA.
And before the Buddy
Program, I thought I would feel distant to Raphy. But after talking to him a
lot and exchanging some messages with him, I felt we are close. Raphy is really
kind. He always sent a message for us. It was so impressive. And thanks for
doing that!
Raphy is really good at
talking. He is really funny and also he is an International Studies student
like me so we talked a lot about the major. He introduced some professors and
talked to me a lot. We also talked about our future plans and dream jobs.
Raphy gave me an
opportunity to think about my plans and dreams. When talking about my future, I
run away from the thought all the time but I had a very good opportunity and
experience to consider my future plans through the Buddy Program.
I know the Buddy
Program is so good and nice but I hope this program will be improved in the
future.
