The enrichment workshop was a mixed bag for me. Just hearing the words enrichment and workshop put a sour taste in my mouth. Anything that is supposed to be enriching, or that contains enrichment in its name tends to do the exact opposite, so I did have some bias against it. All in all I did not mind the workshop for the most part. The story about the Brooklyn Bridge was actually quite interesting but, the whole workshop itself felt generic. Probably felt generic because we have been told very similar things on multiple occasions.

It was a great thing that they tried to get us to participate. Thing is that when we did go into groups, since we’re all in blocks, most people already knew each other and tend to stay within their comfort zone. I kept waving madly every time they mentioned their names and am rather proud that they noticed me too. Although the waving scenario was out of sheer boredom, the workshop itself was informative and I was able to enjoy it ever so slightly.
