Congratulations

The 3rd Curtin International 7's Rugby Tournament 2011 was a huge success. Everything went smoothly without any major trouble or blunders. There are the little things that we overlooked and it costs us quite a lot too. So here i would like to express my deepest and most sincere gratitude to all our Sponsors

Miri Housing

Yayasan Sarawak

Kementerian Pembangunan Social dan Urbanisasi, Sarawak

Miri City Council

Yb Datuk Lee Kim Shin

and not to forget, without them, we would never have gotten the opportunity to work alongside Sarawak Rugby Union and referees from the Malaysia Rugby Union. A huge thank you to

Miri Division Rugby Union

For all their help and support throughout the past five months. Planning was, well.. to be honest, hell. We couldn't get any sponsors at the beginning and for the last two months before the tournament, my committee members and I busted our ass off, calling people, meeting people, trying to make sure the tournament does not cancel. But thankfully, everything worked out. We even had Professor Ian Kerr, our Pro-Vice Chancellor to help out in the event. This was honestly the best event i have ever worked in. Thank you to everyone whom has made this tournament something to talk about. I honestly and sincerely am grateful to you.

The opening ceremony was awesome. My idea of an opening ceremony was chosen (well, technically no one else pitched their ideas so they just went along with mine) whereby every team sent two representatives on to the field and formed a receiving line. Firstly the PVC performed a drop kick, followed by the President of MDRU and then the Mayor performed his. It was all and all a great start for the tournament. Then the sad part came, CROCS lost the first match. LOL

The teams that came to participate

CROCS First Game


The next day was the quarter finals, semi's and then finals for all division. Cup, Plate, Bowl and Spoon. Yes, you read right, SPOON. If we had more than 12 team that day, we might have had Fork as well. Even with so many divisions, Curtin still did not manage to win any of it. -_-"

Bintulu Rugby Club won Spoon

Bandar Knights brought back the Bowl

SHAOW Old Boys got Silver for Plate Division

SHAOW Warriors brought back the Plate

Kuala Belait Pythons got the 1st Runner up for CUP Division, Silver medals and RM650 prize money 

LABUAN RUGBY CLUB won the tournament, holding the CUP, bringing back Gold Medals
and RM1200 Prize Money

These are the awesome referees i got to work with. Mr Jim Lee and Mr Mawi is not present in this picture though

At the end of the day, the officials took a picture with the Tournament winner
It is indeed a great year for Curtin Rugby Club! Hopefully it will be like this again for the coming years!

Cheers

Transcendent

I have this thing you know, when a weird word comes in my head and i suddenly am intrigued of its meaning. So today, my word of the day would be Transcendent.

Past few weeks has been so hectic. I mean come on, how hectic can a students' life be right? But for some reason i felt as if i had none of ME time. Every waking minute was devoted for some other important things. Like studies, assignments, a butt load of Rugby and spending time with friends. It's been a while since i had a full ME time.

I am pretty excited about the Curtin International 7's Rugby Tournament that will be held on the 8th and 9th of October 2011. Proud of the CROCS for training hard and thankful to MDRU for helping out and training the ruggers. It so happens that on the day the tournament commences, the quarter finals of the RWC 2011 will be on. Gahhhhhhh.. Priorities! It's been challenging being the first woman President for the Curtin Rugby Club. Hopefully the club will live on and advance to the future! Weeee~~~~~

Moving on, i honestly think that everyone, once in a while, needs a psychiatric evaluation done on them. Don't know why, but it's just a thought. You know how some people are diagnosed with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, what if some people has it and people around them got annoyed because they didn't know about it? Pity them right? Thus that actually concludes my point of view of understanding people around you.

I got to go! RWC 2011 starts at 1430 Malaysia time. Until whenever i have free time again.

Cheerios.

So kiss me and smile for me, tell me that you'll wait for me, hold me like you'll never let me go

I'm leaving on a jetplane
Don't know when i'll be back again
Oh babe, i have to go

I just got back from KL for the Media trip. It was awesome. We visited a few places. Bernama, Media Prima, Malay Mail, RTM, Jabatan Filem Negara, Red Com, Berjaya Hotel. We learned a lot about the industry as a whole as well as had a sneak-peek on what we are going to do when we enter the working phase, in Broadcasting as well as in PR. My pictures are mostly with Izzat and the Fiancee. I didn't bring my camera along as i thought it was a hassle, plus the Fiancee prepared a camera for me to use anyways.

I MET MY BABY LOVE IN KL!

omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg...
It was awesome. I haven't seen him for almost a month, and when i did again, i was in KL! Usually he will be the one flying down to Miri to see me but this time, since i was going for the Media trip, so it's like killing two birds with one stone. Woot woot...

We had a slight technical difficulties the first night we arrived. The hotel was a total no-no believe me! We moved to Boulevard hotel for the night and then ended up at Sky Hotel after that. I wasn't planning on going shopping as i had all my essentials with me. Plus, i was planning to eat a lot rather than shop. Turns out, i went on a shopping frenzy right after the media trip ended. Good Lord, my money just flew away in an instant.

Went to Carls Jr., Chillis, Wondermilk, Wendy's, McD drivethru and a bunch of other places to eat. Watch Knight and Day also in GSC Times Square. Shopped at Petaling Street, Bukit Bintang Plaza - Sungei Wang, went to Mid Valley, Suria KLCC, and God know where else. It was hectic yet enjoyable. Seriously, i'll have a trip like that again next time. Trust me i will! =)

I also manage to see Dinesh and Sedut. Didn't hang out much but it's okay. Just as long as i get to see them. Met Ezu's friends as well. Arm was a delight to hang out with. Farid was a bit quiet and seem to have a smile on his face all the time. Munir disappeared after a while. Hizir was totally cute. He was the one always getting bullied (well, not those violent thingy, just being teased all the time) and yet he just laughs about it. It was so cute, really. I don't have to worry about Ezu being with the wrong people there 'cause as far as i'm concern, he's in good hands, and so am i. I have great friends around me who supports me in life, as well as in studies. It's just awesome.

Now i'm back in Miri. It made me regret going back early. Seriously. Should've stayed a few days longer. Hmph... I miss my fiancee a lot already... but it's okay. We'll be together again in no time!

Sometimes i feel like my heart will overflow.

Hello, I just got to let you know.
Cuz i'll wonder where you are and i'll wonder what you'll do.
Are you somewhere feeling lonely or is someone loving you.
Tell me how to win your heart for i haven't got a clue.
But let me start by saying i love you.

Is it me you're looking for?


I just finish watching Glee. SO LATE? I know right. I've been so caught up in my studies that series i bothered to download and keep myself up-to-date was only How I Met Your Mother, The Vampire Diaries and True Blood. HIMYM was because, let's face it, it's just Awesome! I mean seriously, come on, tell me you haven't heard of the whole Barney Stinson and his theories. As for the other two, i just like fantasies, i like fictions. I like Vampires! Twilight Saga is not exactly what i have in mind. Then again, the books are awesome though.

Jessy St. James sings well. He's got one awesome voice. Not to forget Neil Patrick Harris too.

What did you ask? Studies? Yea, you read right. I typed studies there. Hehe... Yes! Damn it. I studied okay. I know i know, Mea + Studying = Lying / Shocker. But yea, swallow the truth! I actually studied this time. Hardly ever miss class without a reasonable excuse.

...

And yes, i changed my course to Bachelor of Arts, Majoring in Mass Communication, PR Stream. If only i took this from the very beginning, I would actually graduate next semester. It's okay. Everything happens for a reason right?

So yea i answered issue no TWO already.

Until next time when i actually have more to say.

xoxo,
MK

Goodbye my friend, I know you're gone, you said you're gone but i can still feel you're here.


Dearest Matt,

I'm angry at you for leaving days before our exam. You promised that we would study together. And you bailed on me. For a nice guy like you, that's not a nice thing to do. I'm so mad at you for not taking good care of yourself. And for doing our assignments at the very last minute...

But i know you didn't want to leave just yet, but then He wants you to be with him, and it's already your time to go. I wished we would've studied earlier so that i could have the opportunity to hang out with you before you leave. I wished i wasn't back home in KCH that night. I wish i was here. I didnt even get to see you off. I miss you so dearly already. I miss the times i make fun of you when you came into my apartment. I miss the times i pretend i was angry at you just so you would argue with me. I miss the times when you suddenly pop up out of nowhere just to say hi to me. I miss the times we played monopoly and make Fyza angry. I miss the times we go partying together. I miss the times when you would just sit down and talk to me about anything. I miss the times when you give me advice which sometimes makes no sense.

I wish you were still here in front of me so that i can tell you how much we're all gonna miss you and how truly we love and appreciate you. I know for sure you're looking down on us and taking care of us from above. We really miss you Matt.

There will come a day
When you will be able, able to say
Never mind the pain, all the aggravation
You know there's a better way
For you and me to be

Look for the rainbow in every storm
Fly like an angel heaven sent to me

Goodbye my friend
I know you're gone, you said you're gone but I can still feel you here
It's not the end
You gotta keep it strong before the pain turns into fear
So glad we made it, time will never change it...

The times when we would play about
The way we used to scream and shout
We never dreamed you'd go your own sweet way..


You will surely be missed by all. May you rest in peace and whatever journey he has in-stored for you after this life, may it always be pleasant and our prayers are always with you.

In loving memory of Mathew Jose Katikkaran
