To my two organizers, although it didnt turn out the way you want it to be, I still thank you for faithfully sticking and seeing through this outing. There were a number of bumps but hey it's all part and parcel of organizing. In all honesty, I was having a ball of time looking at the two of you stressing out when things starts to crumble because I got to see from a view of a follower on how I behave when I organize and things srew up. And then that guilty and bad feeling because you so wanted it to be perfect and it didnt. Oh well, take it as a learning journey so the next time, you know what to do in situation like those.
Now with regards to the funds, I will officially announce that we will do a monthly collection of $2. These will go to the belo funds and can only be used with the approval of everybody. I think having this fund will be good because when we need to do something that involves cash, at least we can offset from this fund. I will do the collecting and every month end, I will give a breakdown on what we have spent on and the amount left. With that said, the following is for the month of october breakdown:
For any question or information on belo funds, you can directly ask me.
The next and last issue will be on the list of gathering that will be held.
1) The next upcoming gathering will be the amazing race that Suz, Awal and Zilah have been planning. So watch this space for more updates on that from them.
2) Kite Flying will be postponed till next year because Mr Update Button is busy getting his update button fixed. =p
3) As for these three people; Jeff, Haj and Ana. I keep giving them ideas but so far none has get back to me on their gathering. But because I am very understanding, I will give them more time for them to think through. Btw, look you three, you can combine forces and plan a makan makan gathering for us or picnic or minds cafe or movie marathon or anything!!!
4) Haini's gathering is the sahur bersama sama for next year fasting month so that one is next year story.
5) For Juju, initially she was supposed to do the minds cafe gathering. But there is a change of plans. After much discussion, we are proposing:
ONE DAY BATAM GETAWAY!!
Obviously, we all need to save up cash first and get the consent of the parents. If you all ok, she will go ahead with the planning. Leave me your thoughts, I want to hear them all!!

if we got e budget, we can stay 3d2n. i can plan e itinerary. if need prices for activities, do lemmi knw. btw. e tix for two way trip alr cost $48 exc tax. tax wld b another $7. so save up!!
if thts the case.. 1day wont be enuf. we need 2days.
1st day - all the fun n outdoor activities & seafood dinner.
2nd day - spa/manicure/pedicure & shopping.
wan.. kalau 3 hari dah melampau. mesti ingat kite ade budak2 underage. haha..
i doubt their parents will allow kalau 3d2n.
btw this is juju's event. she'll plan the itinerary n all.
we jus assist her wit the necessary info she needs. ;)
ta wan..ade underage nye budak..
small D? o.O
anyways ju, it's your event so it's up to you but yeah, one day confirm tak puas. this is quite a big thing to plan, so rope it all the help from the rest of us if you want!
bawah cfm kecik ni small d'ick. =P
HAHAHA!Yeah, its a big thing will confirm ask help from all of you, alright?
Hmm, I am okay with staying over but I am not too sure abt how the parents will feel about the younger ones because it is Batam.
Will talk to the parents and see how they feel abt it and I ll update you guys soon whether it will be a stay over or a one day affair.
Boss,me and you try convincing the parents, shall we? And Big D, you also. Amacam?
small D? wahaha..
btw. wht i meant by 3d2n is fri nite ciao from sg but i think it's better to go on a sat mornin cuz check in is ard noonish.
we can convince e parents. tell em it's e clean side of batam. not e 'dirty' side of batam. i can help w e itinerary but need to state everyone's budget 1st else it'd b diff to sort/plan things out.
ok ni keje senang..
each of us give suggestions on wht they wanna do at batam.
thn frm there kite tgk which r the common ones.
we find out the price for those things, ferry tixs, hotel/chalet & seafood.
calculate the total cost n tadahhhh.. we've got the budget.
I WANT TO GO ATV!
lol. Who is small d seh?
Bout the parents part, I know what to do already. That one can leave to me and juju to handle them.
I think Saturday early morning leave better or if you all want Friday late night. What time does the last ferry depart? Anybody knows?
Rid, you got to go to Batam before? Then must book for accomodation all. Maybe let's decide on how many days first before we say the budget.
sat morning better.. tk rush.
yup. i went b4. fri nite last ferry is at 9+pm but check-in hotels is noon. if we check-in at nite, waste 1/2 day.
dependin on hotels and room size prices varies. if many ppl r gg, we take e suite. shld b ard 240/nite.
for twin bed it'd b ard 120++/nite.
for atv, idk if it;s a gd idea cuz i heard e place da run down n e atv is not well maintained. tht goes for e go-kart s well.
for me, water sports, spa/massasges n shoppin is e best as for nw. any other activities u all wanna do, jus shout out here.
btw boss. can try stayin in haris resort or holiday-inn. i'd suggest haris thou.
anything ESSITING! would vote for atv and/or go-kart as well, but if Rid says it's not a good idea, i trust him. paintball? if not a good idea either, water sports then. anything essiting we won't otherwise do here in singapore.
i'd recommend water sports but it'd b quite ex and tht some wont like it cuz u need patience to learn how to wakeboard. and e after effects im sure none will like it unless u start exercisin nw cuz ur whole body will ache for at least a week n u cant even wear ur clothes w/o pain. unless uve been doin some exercises to 'loosen' up ur muscles, i say we do water sports. another water sports we can do is in e resort itself - swimmin pool water polo, but ther wld b many other ppl playin too cuz it's an open pool.
paintball is fine w me. it'd b cheaper compared to sg but im not sure if anyone of u can tahan e pain. i cant bear w e pain myself tbh. and i still have e blue-black marks on my shoulder since last wk.
go-kart, i'll find out again if it's of good condition. same for atv.
what else do u all plan to do over ther?
jolly jolly.
senyap je ju'jek.
