Updates on Bon Odori

Taken from somewhere else. I didn't type this.

Bon Odori Festival 2009( Selangor )

Free Shuttle Bus from Shah Alam KTM Station to Matsushita Stadium is provided.
Synopsis : The Bon Festival is a Japanese Buddhist custom** which is held annually to honour the deceased spirits of one's ancestors. It is meant to be a joyful celebration, bringing families together, and celebrating rather than mourning the lives of the dearly departed.

So, are you all up to it? Either I go with you guys or I go with my college's anime club.

Bon Odori

I am sure you are feeling the heat of summer...meaning to say, Malaysia just got hotter.
Anyway, main thing is, I am booking you all for Bon Odori. I shall personally arrive to your house regardless of where and literally drag you out. Those with yukata, put it on! Both the genders are compulsory to put it on. If you lost it or 'forgot' where you put 'em..... wear normal clothes then.
I have to say, I don't know the specify date and time yet. But the venue would most probably at Matsushita Sports Stadium or something like that..

So, air out your yukata and get it ready within June. I predict that Bon Odori is going to be around the first 2 weeks of July.

Dakara, minna-san. ONEGAISHIMAS!!! Get your yukata ready.

I am expecting more or less 15 people for this trip. Which is less than the amount of people who actually when to Japan in Form 4. Want me to list them out for clarification purposes?

Those at overseas, meaning Haow Bin, Yau Mun and Freida(if she comes to this blog), feel free to join us if you are back in KL/Malaysia by then. Those that I left out but also went overseas, pardon me for leaving you out.

With that, I end my booking on you guys.

ADV: Selwyn College, University of Cambridge

Coming here to study in the UK is truly no regret.

For one I finally have my freedom to go out anytime, anywhere.

My tutors in college are wonderful, compared to Sri Garden, mine totally winz.

Bio tutor: doctorate in biology
Chem tutor: from oxford
Phy tutor: from cambridge
Maths tutor: from oxford and he went in at 16.

That is epic win.

Other than that, being here means another thing. I get to visit places around, and related to my future studies, I get to visit a few of the best universities in the world.

On the 6th of April, I will be going to University College London's open day.




Also, waiting for a reply from Imperial College London to let me in their medical open day.

12th Sept I'll be going to Selwyn College, University of Cambridge open day, the number one place I really aim to go.




A few reasons why I wanna go there and study:

1. Who doesn't wanna go?
2. My physics tutor is from this college.
3. Hugh Laurie graduated from this college.
4. The total time being in the university for a year is only 22 weeks. Out of 52 weeks in a year. The rest is holidaysssss. Sounds impressive.

Hopefully their open day impresses me even more. I soooo wanna go <3
