Situation:
As a member of student council, you are tasked to take part in the high school freshmen
orientation in your school. You are assigned to give the freshmen tips on how to effectively
hurdle their first year in high school.

down. If the organizers decide to call the repair men, it would take half an hour to fix the
problem, which would mean that the orientation could stretch on until past noon. Moreover, rain
has started beating down the roof and windows of the function room and shows no signs of
letting up.
