Appreciation Dinner @ McD

We had an Appreciation Dinner at SS15 McDonald’s Drive Thru last night. All of the active members were invited to our Appreciation Night and they were served with FREE DINNER!!! *(^_^)* The dinner was supposed to start at 6pm, but majority of our fellow members follow the Malaysian timing... Which is at least half an hour later than the stated time!


Well, I reached there at 6.20pm. Amazingly, I was not too late, because I was the 7th person who arrived!! LOL!! As what I mentioned earlier, the rest of the people followed Malaysian timing!! *Sigh* I hope you guys will be punctual for the exams..

*See! At 6.30pm... there were only a handful of us*

According to Jacqueline, McDonald’s staff had already arranged the burgers, french fries and Coke on the tables at 6pm SHARP!! So by the time I reached, the fries were cold and as hard as rock (u know batu??). Heheh kidding.. I’m such a fries-lover, can’t tahan eating cold fries mah. It’s my fault for coming late... Okay... Lesson learnt.

*Our coke, burger and soggy fries*


In the end, there were 30 plus members turned up for this special and memorable evening. We actually invited more than 60 members, but half of them couldn't make it. Too bad... =( Anyway, for the rest of us, we enjoyed our meals, hung around with friends, and chatted with each other. This is such a great opportunity to catch up with old mates or get to know new friends better. Of course, I was busy snapping pictures. And then others also started to take out their cameras and snap snap snap…

The climax and also the anti-climax of the night was when Andrew started the “yum seng” (toast) session. FIRSTLY, he thanked all the helpful members who made MBC a big success. Then, he thanked our beloved President Laura for leading the club well. *Thanks, Laura..* LASTLY, it ended with a toast session... for only 2-3 seconds.. *Sigh*... All of us were expecting something else. But he just turned and sat down all of a sudden. Really disappointing everybody... =p


Before all of us head home, we had a group picture session... *Everybody smile*!! Then, we bid each other goodbye at around 8pm... And yeah! There were a lot of left over food... Some of them tapau (take away) the burgers and fries home. Probably they will heat up the food before eat? Well, that's up to them...

MBC 2007 Committee Members... =)

And our fellow members... (part of them)

Anyway, thanks for everyone who came! I hope all of you had a great time at McD. Hope to see you guys again. For those who couldn't turn up for this dinner, dont worry... Just continue to be an active member and you can join us again end of next semester...


Let's strive for the BEST CLUB AWARD this year!! If you think you can, you can! *(^_^)*

Perhentian Island Trip!! The hottest event of the semester!!

Longing for a beach or island vacation?


Wanna have a break after your exams?



MBC wants to bring you to Pulau Perhentian! (referred as PP from here onwards)





PP is actually very famous for Scuba diving.. Although the beach is not as gorgeous as it seems from pictures, the water is definitely crystal clear! PP is a GREAT location for a hideaway. It’s not like packed with people and it’s peaceful and serene and tranquil… god knows what else to use to describe PP.

Also, PP have a lot of “ang mohs”. Most of the tourist are foreigners. So whoever that loves to see “ang mohs”, come to PP with us la! =p

Here goes the details of this trip:

3D 3N Pulau Perhentian (27 June, night – 30 June, evening)

Accomodation: Everfresh Chalet located at Teluk Dalam Beach

Price per person:
RM 270 for members
RM 285 for non-members

The package includes 6 meals (including a BBQ dinner), 1 snorkelling trip, 2 nights lodging and return transportations. However, for those who LOVE snorkelling, you can pay an additional RM35 for an EXTRA snorkelling trip.



You can swim, snorkel, find Nemo, sunbath, find your potential soul mate or maybe have a beach wedding too!!! LOL.... Besides, you can stay up the whole night to see how turtles lay eggs!! But, I would rather party all night though... =p

Or, just simply get someone to accompany you to watch the sunset. How romantic…

Well, one thing I found out is that, there is no bank in Kuala Besut and Perhentian Island!! Uhm…. Okay….. Guys... you can keep your ATM cards at home... Bring some cash instead...

Just in case you do not know where is PP, we even provide you with the Map of Pulau Perhentian!! We are so thoughtful!!!



PP is located at the north-eastern coast of Peninsular Malaysia. About 21 km off shores the remote town of Kuala Besut.
Pulau Perhentian Kecil (Small Perhentian) and Perhentian Besar (Big Perhentian) comprise the Perhentian Island, aptly named after "henti"(stop) as fishermen from mainland Kelantan and Terengganu have, for centuries, stopped over at the island for a rest or to shelter during a major storm. These two lovely unspoiled island lie amidst exquisitely clear waters. A rocky virgin jungle provides hour of adventures for trekkers who may chance upon flying fox, long-tailed macaques and monitor lizards, while the underneath marine life shows off a splendid garden of coral.

The Everfresh Chalet is located at Teluk Dalam Beach. It is one of the budget chalet with fan and attached bathroom at Perhentian Besar. Steven Sea Sport (dive center) is located just in front of the chalet.


Here is how our accommodation looks like:

A-Frame Chalet



Standard Chalet



Some coral reefs and fishies





Who knows you might find Nemo & Dory there!!


These are Jeannie's pet Nemos...... *(^_^)*
