YEah! Another FREE FOod event from MSA!

HI guys,

Yes, you are right. It's me again from the same day after I publisher the MFest Performers Audition.

This time, I'm promoting something all of you will like. Yes! Free Food from MSA.

The main reason for bring up this "Event Makan" is to celebrate our success in the previous Sport Carnival 2009 as we didn't ended last this year but a 3rd tie with SUAMS. OF course, MSA will reward each and every sportman/sportswoman who had sacrificed their time, energy and money. Thank you all.

By the way, Sportmans/Sportwomans make sure you came for this food event as we will be giving out certificates and MSA shirts.(Hopefully, everything goes as planned. If not, now MSA shirt or certs to give out on that day.Then SORRY lar.Maybe next time.

(i think these words "Sportmans/Sportwomans" is grammatically wrong as there's no such words as mans or womans but bared with me please.)

Now the important bits:

"Riang Ria Makan
Date: Sunday, 10th of May 2009
Time: 1pm-3pm
Venue: MUV's West Side Green (in front of the laundry)
Menu: ehem, RAHSIA(secret). but we can tell you there's gonna be bihoon soup. and that is what I can spill for now.", (copied form Mardiah's email)

I think some of you will be thinking what does "Riang Ria Makan" means. They are all Malay words. Here's the direct Malay to English translation.

Riang= Happy
Ria=Joy
Makan=Eat

For those who don't know where's MUV, here a map to help you out.
(I'm sure most of you know where's the gym is right!)

For those who don't know where's MUV West Side Green is, here another map for you guys.

For those who don't know where's MUV and MUV West Side Green,
please refer to both maps.

2009 Sports Carnival Review

Hi everyone!!!!

As you guys knew, we had our Sports Carnival 2009 recently.

I think most of you are aware about the Sports Carnival at UniSyd but not many knew about the Soccer Matches at Moore Park which was held a week earlier. My point is our soccer team made us proud by beating MSO (2-0) and they were so close in beating MASA (1-0) and SUAMS (3-2). Special thanks to all soccer players and supporters who went that day.

Now, let's see how well we did during the sports played at UniSyd which was schedule to start as early as 9am. Crazy right! Some of us have to wake up as early as 6am just to make sure we were not late for the match. These people are basically the volleyball and netball teams not so sure about tennis.( I salute you ar!)

The highlights of the Sport Carnivals ie the wins. Our badminton team was Second...just one game away from being the 1st. (MASA beat us lar). For basketball and tennis, MSA come 3rd by wining SUAMS. Basketball improve form the usual 4th place to 3rs but not so lucky for tennis since K, the Tennis Prince of MSA graduated last year. (by the way, K is a Malay guy who is really really really good in tennis, very hard to find replacement.Hei!!)

Photo time!!




They are trying very hard to look relax before the matches.















The basketball team with the score board with












Intense netball game.












Time-out for discussion on tactics.












Volleyball team looking at the volleyball.











More volleyball actions.














Our cheerleading team but why are they looking at the camera in stead of cheering.Hmm!!!!












Badminton team, your the best!
(They help MSA to won 2nd place in badminton)














They look like models promoting the tennis equipments even when they are MSA tennis team.








Here's some funny looking photo especially when you add you creative imaginations.







Somehow, I think the girls dump the black shirt guy.





















Why is the red shirt guy asking an autograph from our ex-MSA President? (Note: the grey jacket guy is Galvin our ex-MSA President.)










Again, great thanks for tall participants who put in all their effort and time to make this event a success.

Without our dedicate MSA sport player, MSA won't be able to become joint-3rd place with SUAMS which great improvement from being 4th place for the pass 2 years. All of you desire it.

Make sure to check facebook and blog for more update as MSA will be celebrating our success during Sports Carnival once Uni reopens.



See you guys later!
