Schmidt Limbunan

Helloo, I’m Schmidt! As a first-year Biomedical Engineering student, running for Events Organiser, I’m all about fun and yap! Whether taking random strolls through Soho or climbing Bali’s waterfalls (because I’m a forever Bali kid), I’m always down for a good time. With my outgoing spirit, I ensure to make our society not only welcoming, but exciting!

My ‘Why’:
My goal is to create events that not only bring us together, but also offer a hint of home, away from home. Whether through competitive spirit, gotong-royong or simple laughs and giggles, I believe that anyone can become friends given the chance. And it’s this ‘chance’ that I wish to bring to life.

My Strengths:
During high school, my roles in the student council, head prefect and yearbook committee president helped me learn that…

• There are a lot of smart people out there. Be open-minded, and listen to others. Working alone won’t get you anywhere.
• There’s nothing wrong with trying. Approach other societies, collaborate, try something new. Don’t ever get scared; you’ll never know what’s possible until you try.
• Have fun and be creative. You produce your best work when you’re enjoying yourself. And if you’re having fun, it's likely others will too.

My Ideas:

• Outdoor Indonesian Games Day: Traditional games like gobak sodor, makan kerupuk and tug-of-war.
• Indonesian food night: Stalls showing diverse Indonesian cuisines.
• Seasonal Events: Gingerbread house-making for Christmas, egg designing and hunting for Easter, fortune cookie scavenger hunt for CNY and Batik designing for Batik day.
