MY FIRST EVER DARTS TOURNAMENT.

Guess what i had my first ever Dart tournament and i would say i did well surprisingly. Well our University Sports Championship is still going on and will be ending by the 30th of April.

I was in 3 categories.. which is our Marching,Tug or War ( which we looses) and for two days we had out Darts championship. To my surprise i wasn't suck at it at all coz i was one of the underdog that could aim straight to the numbers ( Alah yang aku tau lempar je, sebab tak tau rules) when my staff tells me to shoot no 5 then i pun shootlah no 5 but hey surprisingly i can do it. hehe funny tell coz we loose one and win over with vet. hehehe. New things i discover about myself today.

Congratulation to us...

Last Friday was another bz day, well my life have been bz last few weeks with the sports, the star gazing and our upcoming iso audit.

We've been practicing very hard for our marching coz for our sports opening one of the contest was marching. Wow last i did marching was in 1982 when i was in secondary 2 and i remember wearing shorts with singlet in the hot day but everything paid off when we won.

Well after nearly 27 years i got to do it again and its crazy... hehe its like coming back life full circle again. The trill the determination and most of all the commoraderie, it was intense. Its nice coming back to our main campus coz i got to do things i never got to do before.

Anyway guess what we won coz we are the 5th best group among 35 groups. According to my collegue , we never won anything since the sports day started but this year at least we got no 5, so they were really-really proud.

Anyway it was fun, just imagine there was nearly 1500 staff that night. Oh the story behind the colour.. actually the staf wanted black pants and yellow shirt and black caps but i changed it to chilly red ( but we cannot have the colour so we revert back to yellow) and white pants ( which they dont like it coz its kinda like transparent but i think thats the trick, we need white colour to be visible) anyway my instinct was right and we won the 5th place.

Response after my Star gazing.

Didn't i mention i did my star gazing last week , at first i was poorly dissapointed with the turn out coz only around 27 guys list their names but then after the end of the week the numbers increased and last monday i send this :-


Selamat pagi Prof, Dr, Tuan-tuan dan Puan-puan. Seawal pagi begini saya ingin mengambil kesempatan untuk mengucapkan ribuan terima kasih kepada siapa yang telah menyertai " MALAM SERIBU BINTANG STAR GAZING 2009" pada jumaat lepas 10, April 2009 di Kelab Golf UP.......

Kemeriahan dan penglibatan Tuan-puan amatlah saya hargai dan saya amat berbangga sebab ada sebahagian kita yang terlalu asyik melihat bulan dan planet sehingga sampai pukul 12 malam. Untuk pengetahuan sesiapa yang tidak sempat menyertai Star Gazing pada malam itu, kami sempat melihat dengan jelasnya Planet Saturn seperti yang telah di janjikan kerana bulan April 2009, Planet Saturn paling dekat pada bumi dan fenomena ini hanya berlaku setiap 4 tahun sekali, so rugilah sesiapa yang tidak dapat melihat keindahan Planet Saturn pada malam itu.

Walaupun hujan agak lebat pada awal malam itu tetapi pada pukul 10.00 malam hujan reda dan langit terbuka luas. Keindahan bulan susah untuk saya gambarkan di sini tetapi saya masih teringat ungkapan Dr. Maria Chong " The moon is so beautiful Allan".

Kepada Dr Habibah Abdul Jalil, terima kasih kerana mencetuskan idea untuk mengadakan Star Gazing , kepada AJK saya yang telah berhempas pulas menjayakan malam ini , ribuan terima kasih saya ucapkan kepada anda dan syabas dan akhir sekali kepada siapa yang hadir pada malam itu, ribuan terima kasih daripada saya dan AJK saya, sokongan tuan-puan amatlah kami hargai, segala penat lelah kami terbayar selepas mendengar komen yang positif daripada tuan-puan.

Kepada tuan-puan yang tidak sempat menyertai aktiviti anjuran Kelab Kebajikan dan Rekreasi , saya berharap kehadiran anda di masa-masa akan datang kerana bukan saja anda terlepas peluang yang hanya julung-julung kali di adakan tetapi saya rasa penglibatan tuan-puan akan lagi menyemarakkan lagi aktiviti kita, sekali gus mengeratkan tali persaudaraan kita. Hadiah terbesar bagi kami AJK adalah bilangan penyertaan, sokongan dan feed back daripada tuan-puan,jadi sekali lagi saya meminta luangkan sedikit masa anda untuk aktiviti-aktiviti yang akan datang.

SEKIAN DAN TERIMA KASIH.





Allan Lajot
Pengerusi Kelab Kebajikan dan Rekreasi.


I normally express my thankfullness to my patrons for coming to any event and to my surprise i got this response:-


1. From Dr Maria Chong Abdullah.

Thanks to you Allan and the committee members of the star gazing program for creating such a meaningful and informative program for all of us. I am proud to be part of this historical event (to observe planet Saturn) and I was excited to see the surface of the moon which I could only see in the text books and magazine. I hope to see more of this in the future, so I hope there will another star gazing event after this.

Thank you again,

Maria

2.

Tahniah Allan dan ahli Jawatankuasa.
We had a good time.
Learn so..... much.
Allah is truly great.

PUSHING MY LIMITS.

I guess with the sports day,the internal audit, the star gazing,the finals and my course of being an insurance agent i hardly have time to rest nowadays.

This morning i have a class with the students at 8 am and at 9 am i have a marching practice for 2 hours and soon after that at 11.00 am conducted a meeting in preparation for my star gazing tomorow and at 11.30 i had another meeting with the sports commitee on our marching.

So, running from one place to another and one meeting to another meeting, matilah. Tonight my student doing a BBQ for their finals and not only i am invited im sort of like one of the commitee as well.

Life is hectic but thats how i like my life. Hectic and being over the edge. So my next big thing is to make it as an insurance agent. I know i can do it , its just a matter of doing it and wanting it badly.
