Leo Forum 2009 – Moving Forward [Part II]

This was actually supposed to be a picture post but seems there’s so much happening in the cbox now, it’s only sane to cover on the story. =)

Well, like rinz said, We have never been for a forum before but we certainly do know this was not well planned as our leo advisor did commented too. This is what you’ll be hearing during post mortem. We planned so many events and after events, we get lash backs. Our LION taught us, no matter what, take those comments as constructive comment.

Comments from random Leos/Lions

Another human: wah professional sucker
justaguy: yea..the food sucks...but then others were quite ok
wow: stop complaining unless you think you can do it better than them
wow: stop being so harsh. Its not easy to organize an event for over thousand people.
passerby: so many complains uhhh. then you become the chairman and organize the whole forum. lets see how...
passerby: ... good will it be. maybe it will be even worst than this. you this sucker!
anonymous: Yea the food sucks so what? Its hard to control 1200 ppl u know? Stop complaining man.Be considerate
anonymous: they check the room because there was an scandal happened in the past forums la.

Comments backing my comments

rinz: well, i think i can do better than them..
Lynnette: [anony] the spotchecks were alright but they didnt' have to be so noisy while ronda-ing like you said.. be considerate =)
O.o: let the girl speak her bloody mind. she didn't enjoy the forum. which she's spent 280 bucks for. what's the bloody point of having a PERSONAL blog then? sheesh grow up.
rinz: =] well, it's my first time being in a forum, so i dont really know how a REAL ORGANISED one look like. however, i do thank them for organizing one... but, even now, i still think im a better chairman
OMG.: lol man i'm guessing you guys are the planners? then my apologies but forum wasn't good. sorry`
rinz: given me a chance, i would make this forum a better/organized one. and yeah, to those of y'all who worked hard for this, thanks.. if you want to be appreciated, then next time..try to prepare good food.. food is a necessity for human..and i think we all have the rights to have good food no matter what
Lynnette: we had moldy bread for breakfast.. literally there was mould on the bread.. does it not give me the right to say something?
stupid.: agreed forum was BAD. but to top it off you have to call one of the members names for speaking their minds? gosh. i feel for this lynnette girl.
Ha-ha-riz-riz: Dude, this is just a response, critism for future organizers to be aware of up to better. So yeah the forum sucks in our opinion, all the more reason you people shuold read blogs like hers well, if u dislike the comments that was given, then...do a better job next time.. to improve and better your facilities instead of hitting back like ****. and if you don't like what she wrote here, you don't have to read it, shhhh…

Leo Forum 2009? Pfft…

Saying forum was not good is the understatement of the year. I would like to say I had a blast and my RM280 and letting go of TWO camps were worth it but no. I can’t really say that.

1. The food sucked.

Yes, you may say we were in Penang. Ironically, we had the suckiest food in Malaysia and I actually missed canteen food. We had sour smelling vege on the first day for lunch. The dinner? Imagine ONE THOUSAND AND SEVENTY LEOS queuing at 3 buffet tables. For breakfast the next day, char kuey teow.. no, not penang style. With two fried spring rolls. Lunch was OKAY. Dinner was.. didn’t really eat except for the first dish, too happy. *grins* Breakfast on the last day was freaking horribly-disgusting, it had bread mould on it. WTF?!

2. The hotel sucked.

Imagine you were in the shower, electricity going off every 2 minutes. IT WENT OFF 6 FREAKING TIMES IN 10 MINUTES! Imagine, you are hot and sweaty and water supple keeps coming back on and off. Imagine, ONE THOUSAND AND SEVENTY Leos waiting for two miserable lifts? Imagine you being sweaty and just wanting to get to your room climbing up TEN flights of stairs to get to your room to find out there’s no electricity. Imagine you had to pay FREAKING TWO RINGGIT FOR A PILLOW AND THREE RINGGIT FOR A COMFORTER or else they would tell you there’re none available.

3. What Dance Floor?

They promised Dance Floor. The MC said, DJ pump up the music. The music by Celine Dion came on the speakers. WE were all like.. =.= /|\ So imagine the music throughout FORUM. Not that I don’t like Celine Dion, in fact I LOVE her music but.. pumping up the music isn’t exactly Celine Dion.

4. Stickers? Save the planet puhlezze.

They gave us some bus stickers, but due to dunno what shyt problem. Not all of them were available. So we didn’t even get to go for the Special Project okay. Forum was talks speeches and awards.

5. Heels were a killer.

My feet are still hurting from them. Two days in a row of heels. Not me man. Don’t know how girls actually go through it.

6. The ballroom was so far away from the Hotel.

We had to keep travelling everyday to get to the halls. It was freaking shit.

7. Security Check in the middle of the night.

what shit man… damn tired di. The knocking was so loud. Fine, that aside. Please larr, respect others who WANT to sleep and don’t laugh like some idiotic jakun while walking down the freaking corridor. You do your checkup and let the rest of us Leos sleep larr.. goodness gracious.

8. A certain Committee member was really rude to the Leos.

It’s no one’s fault that they can’t speak English. So since YOU can freaking converse in CHINESE why not just explain to them what you mean? OR MAYBE you can’t even speak in chinese? Seriously, what was YOUR problem? YOU had no right to scold them right in front of so many people making them apologize for nothing. YOU should have helped us LEOS. Don’t you remember the motto - WE SERVE?

But.. I would still say I had fun at Forum.

1. The company was great AWESOME.

Yes, even though kena zha by Mark and Neeraj kao kao in the bus.. at least it was entertaining right Zen? We shall all go get twee Christmas twee and hang can cuffs on them and make sure we have Party Sized people around.

Thanks to the girls in my room for putting up with me, always hear me going around laughing doing crazy stuffs before you girls sleep. =) Also, pressing the down button when we wanted to go up because at one point I thought if I wanted the lift to come down, I should press the down button. =P

To the girls from BU, you girls rock socks man! Hahaha, hypering with me the whole night. Singing LOW, GLAMOROUS, BOOM BOOM POW and other songs with me in the middle of nowhere and actually dancing.

2. I got my award!

I got my Information and Technology Award! and also not to forget the International Relationship Day Award. The one where me and Zen worked our asses off to get the events and on that day itself cried dunno how many billion times over it.

3. I got a lot more badges.

My vest is filled now. I got a special badge from Muar which a girl traded for my LOVE badge. Quite worth it though cause I really really liked it.

Pictures will be up soon when I get them from everyone else.

T.T

Lynnette should have packed earlier.
Lynnette should have packed two days ago.
Lynnette should have checked everything earlier.

I woke up this morning, enter my bathroom. Realized my shampoo was squeezed to the very last drop. Found out a lot other things were on the verge of finishing too. =.=

Last minute trip to OU with Briana. Sorry for dragging you around ou like an idiot. We went to watch Monsters VS Aliens in TGV so there was no 3D effect. The movie started out great. Then, came a SMS that totally ruined my mood for the movie.

“What’s you monster name?”
”Susan?”
”As in a name people scream when they see you..”
”Susan…”
”=.= SUUUUUSAAANNN.. Omg, I just scared myself.”

Love that scene. Okay, I should go back to my packing now. Last minute packing = frantic. Should not have procrastinated. Serves me right. Gah..

I need a last minute shopping trip! Anyone?

Will be back on the 7th. =)

Tomayto Tomahto

either way.. it’s still a FRUIT.

Today was tiring.
Baked in the morning.
Out after that.
Back at night.

Yesterday morning at 3AM, my dad received a shocking news from Serom. A tragedy I would say. My cousin brother hanged himself. Reason still unknown. Even though I am not very closed to him but it’s sad to hear someone had just taken their own life away like that. So to my dearest cousin brother, may you rest in peace.
