Aftermath
Man i'm completely knackered!...in fact wen i came home last nite, i was tearing from exhaustion...believe it or not, even blinking hurt my eyes....lol..so wat did i do to drain meself?...The UKEC London Regional Games is wat happened...
The games is an annual sporting event held to gather all the Malaysian Societies in London...this year my Uni together with Queen Mary had the "privilege" of hosting this event...being the Events Secretary of UEL MSoc, i was in charge of of food and transport yet again...so i was basically the driver again....and yes, i drove the same model 17 seater minibus...the one with the 2.4 liter turbo diesel engine(awesome torque!)....but this one was really stinking and dirty...wont go into details...and because of the horifying stench, i hadto leave the window open to let in air...which ultimately froze my right ear and nose...i guess it worked cos i couldnt smell anything after that...
So anyways the games went pretty well except fer some minor inconveniences and hiccups which was expected....well at least my Uni won in the 5 a side football arena...there were claims of man handling and foulplay but hey, i didnt see anything of that sort...eheh...2 guys suffered minor injuries and one poor chap fractured his ankle...ambulance medics swooped in and whisked him away in a jiffy...was pretty dramatic cos they put him on a stretcher and rolled him out...i guess he didnt feel the pain anymore wen the all the gals focused on him...in fact he was grinning all the way...lol..other than that it was a succesful event albeit an extremely tiring one...but the best part was working with the organising committee...even some non members helped out, which was awesome....its great working with such comitted and pro active Malaysians!...overall i was up from 6am to 11pm at nite...an this mornin i hadto wake up at 7.30am fer work...sat in front of the monitor till 4.30pm this evening and slept on the train bak...was quite funny cos i called my boss Steve instead of Adam wen i left the office...and i didnt realise it til i was out of the building...no wonder he gave me a funny stare wen i left...lol
Now wen i think about it, i was totalled but i feel good bout it cos i helped to orgainse anoder succesful event plus me boss told me today that he was happy wit my work!....nothing like getting abit of encouragement for ur hard work...ahha!...anoder great weekend and more to come....cheers!
