The one with iGreenify

So basically, we went for this Inti college university event which was held last week and got ourselves chosen as the finalist out of 108 teams all over Malaysia. Believe me, it's not as glamorous as you might think.

To win this competition, we're required to carry out a campaign related to the conservation and preservation of nature which we decided to call iGreenify. We came up with an idea after a long series of contemplation.

I am just going to skip all the interminable details, what we are going to do is plant a flower for you around the school for a price of RM5. You will be given a complimentary badge that looks like this. Your name will also be imprinted on a stone beside the plant, to acknowledge your donation.

Well, as for my prosaic week, I was forced to skip many of my classes due to the campaign and our upcoming Footloose musical by the choir.

I also got myself a new phone =D. Shut up, I really needed it this time. You will understand if you have seen my Samsung u-600. It's call the Samsung Jet, here's a picture of it.



Besides that, nothing much is going on as I am currently tied down with these events. Barely even have time to socialize and study. In addition to that, our choir will also be having a performance and competition soon. Thus, forgive me if I tend to ignore your calls for this few days/weeks ;)

The one with the bridge

Basically, this to a bridge from my previous post to my latter post, explaining what had happened in these few months (only things which I can remember).

ASEAN Scholarship
Lets see, I will begin with myself. Applied for ASEAN, got into the selection, went for selection, waiting for reply. The math was pretty hard, most of the candidates left at least half of the paper empty including me. The sad part was I was sure that I can answer all of it but I was stupid to held in my pee. My hypothalamus was signalling my body so bad that I think my bladder was about to burst. Now, I know it's stupid but they said we can't pee! I was desperate enough to ask after a while which granted me with a answer that saved my bladder from the brink of explosion. Anyway, when I came back from the toilet and had the proper mental capability to sit for the exam, the examiner announced "Time's up you suckers!".

English was not too bad, the only challange was to write a 350 words essay in about 30 minutes which I did with 600 words. The title which I had chosen was "Should the excellence be based solely on academic only".

General Knowledge (IQ) was a surprise for me. It was so freaking easy! Maybe it's because I had completed similar questions beforehand. I really want the scholarship but we all know the result.. Still, no harm hoping.

Icare/Ichallenge
We ( Carmen, Hsien Wei, Aiman and I) recently qualify ourselves as one of the 9 finalist chosen out of 108 teams througout Malaysia. Currently working on the campaign (iGreenify) which we are suppose to be carring out. I will elaborate more about it in our next post.

Choir
As for our choir, we won the district level competition. Lost the state level, 4th place, period.
I would say it was most probably our lack of capability as a leader that led to the downfall.
Though now we need to look ahead for the Subang Parade Competition and our musical.
Can't wait to step down.

Choral Festival
Due to the economical downfall, the location of the festival had been changed from KLPAC to our school. Had quite a lot of fun though I only attended 3 out of the 5 days it was hosted. Took lots of pictures with students from all over Malaysia and a choir from the Philippines. Too bad we were forced to clean up after the event because it was held in our school but we're willing to do it! =)

Summary
As to sum up this chapter, I am back =D
