Day One :
Juz a day earlier (actually 5.20am on d same day - friday), i went home late after all d students cleared up their stuffs ...after a cup of nice & chilling Coke ..i headed home for a 2 hour nap....thank God, later on, my High-com called me ..... i woke up at 7.30am ....oh shit ...luckily, no one knew till now....
Well, it a was day to begin with. When i reached DP' conference room, it was alredi abuzzed with students moving like ants, decorating their booths to their hearts content (after all, we were to be marked accordingly) ... we put up d final touches to the backdrop and such .... rearranged chairs, prepared the place, etc .....
Let's detour a while k................................(will get back to sequence later)
Allow me this chance to thank Kim Thor for his tireless effort to arrange the 'makan' & 'minum' session for d day. Without him, d event wouldn't b as smooth as it was... thx again Thor ....

Back to our sequence for IBF conference......................
V commenced d event wit d marching in of both high-com ..... quite a 'happening' entrance wit d kompang sounds serenading d conference hall ....oh my ....long time d no hav such an entrance (last time was in secondary school....ahhh d gud old day ya) ......
D event kicked off wit the emcees introducing d the directors of both events to present their speeches ....quite 'emo' (hahaha....vince vince.... ) .... ahem.................
Mr Halim was next in line to deliver his keynote speech on the title of this event (too long 2 write here ....well ....i guessed u guys noe it anyway) .... anyway, shortly after that, d video and drama presentation went on, but shit ....to our dismay, d sunlight was gleaming like blazes (well, u get my point) ...it was too bright to show any projections ...sigh
Oh well, we moved onto d exhibitions ....it was a crowd favourite ....everyone enjoyed it (i hav proof to display that....haha) .... each group had prepared many activities as well as explanation to deliver to the public.... at a time, it looked like it was a market place (so noisy) ....
After that, v moved onto many other things .....replay of videos, etc....v spent our time chit chatting ... chased each other around (haha...luckily no lecturer ....) ..... lol .... after 8pm onwards ...it was fun time to d closing time at around 10pm .... after packing up all the remaining food ...clear this & that ....all of us went home at around 10.30pm ....was really tired that day .....
Day 2 :
Due to d PA system being dismantled after d first day, many members resorted to getting their very own sound system via speakers + laptops ....walao (like this oso can) .....
D 2nd day was a heck of a rush ....i could c temper flaring here & there .... just like geysers all over the place wit steaming vapour gushing high into d air .....luckily everyone acted professionally ....though i received numerous complains bout' ppl not doin' their part; i guessed dis is part & parcel of every event ..... its INSEPARABLE ....... but let's not harp upon this issue anymore.... to those who hav worked hard for this event, u noe who u r ....thx
At around 8.05pm, v had our closing ceremony at d bazaar ......der were numerous dances and singings by MMU's very own music club of sorts ..... thx guys .... cool performance der .....
Later on, our chubby director (IBF) exchange hugs wit d down-to-earth Inv Director after they both had delivered their 'emo' speeches ....oh man ....later on, there were dances on d stage by our 'very excited crew members' .....well, well, well, ....guessed what ....they decided that i was a bouncy ball; thus, up and down i went ....(5x) ...thx ah wei loons (i will always rmb that) ...after that , v cleared all d stuffs in d conference hall, tore down many items v put up, threw garbages away, etc..
Next, was a memorable 'sayounara' ..i could not have pictured a better scene than that day among all d event i attended.....
"V came as individuals (IBF & Investment students) but v left as friends"........that was our biggest achievement despite all d minor setbacks ..... i supposed der was some goodness 2 dis event after all .... most of us got closer 2 knowing each other better ....v had our share of fun (some had fun non-stop ....haha) .... To me, this event will always remind me of how things can go so badly initially and how it can turn around, bringing so much goodness around .... thx guys .......p/s: I will pass my share of photos around ....could those who hav photos that day share around theirs ....thx ...
