Re: Selamat Hari Raya Pt.1

Selamat Hari Raya again BEngers!

We are still in the month of Syawal and hari raya is still in the air, well bits and pieces of it. Some hari raya enthusiast might be still celebrating to the max with open house serving wide range of food from eastern to western, malay to indian, indian to chinese, chinese to japanese, japanese to arabic, and it goes on and on till finally stopping at 'nasi katok bro' (whhaaaattt...).

Cakes and biscuits have become more colourful than they were used to, not forgetting the ever-so-famous 'kueh moors' and 'tapak kudas'. The BEng management recently were surprised by the latter which have evolved to 'tapak gajahs'. Yes, wierd huh... But yeah, they do exist. Peanut butter are used in place of the normal nutella, but the design remains the same. Rumours are saying that a new type from the tapak family will be out next year named 'Tapak Kelindahau'. The savoury part is mashed kembayau with zest of belachan tamu kianggeh. You need to order this amazing mouth watering special at least a month before puasa for the blessings of kelindahaus before the ramadhan quarantine.

Anyway, the BEngers were invited to Nyeh's open house on the 2nd week of syawal after the holiday. Most of the group came, along with few seniors that were due to fly to Belfast. Everybody had fun with all sorts of acrobatic photo shoot poses. Thank you Nyeh, the food was nice. If the parents weren't around, the group pretty sure would have gone for second or third rounds.

Here are some of the pictures taken....

Selamat Hari Raya

BEngers!

Selamat Hari Raya! Thousand apologies to everybody for not updating much sooner. Lots of stuffs goin around since the last post but the management were unable to update because of too much work to do with little time to finish, thanks again to the wonderful people in the institute.

How was your raya BEngers? Did you guys still get the green packets? For those who got lots, you need to get rid of those diapers man, its about time. You have an option not to take it if you think you are big enough to get em'. Ang pow kalllleeeee..... And what about fasting during ramadhan, forget the ladies, did the guys fasted the whole month? Or did some of you had pms also so you did not get to fast on some days? If that was the case, you need to get to your thingies checked.

Anyway, to patch things up from the last post;-

# The Structures test was indeed quite a difficult one, many had claimed had a hard time to answer the first question since the second one was a bit similar to the tutorial question but with a slight twist. DM was also unhappy with the few papers he had marked so for the next test, he will include torsion again with buckling. And yes, you need to work your ass again real hard this time or you are bound to LJ.

# The BEngers also had series of sungkai-out planning which some did not turned out well. The underlying causes were under investigation and for some reasons, it had come to a point that there was no point of investigating the causes because in the end, the conclusion will be the same ol lame thing. But within the last few days before the hearing of promiscuous mama moon, some of the BEngers finally had managed to sungkai-out despite the allegations of misunderstanding and misinformation. We had a great time, the food was nice and thanks to Dean for the treat, we all appreciated it.


And thats pretty much the missing part of the BEngers activities because much of the other part is irrelevant and is best forgotten in this festive season. The BEng8 management also would like to take this opportunity to beg forgiveness from all of you for everything that had said and done. Some perhaps offended by the blog and might caused pain to others.

SELAMAT HARI RAYA AIDILFITRI. MAAF ZAHIR DAN BATIN.

Till next time, bye!

(Raya stuff will be out soon on the next post)
