Midwest Games International 2010

Assalamualaikum =)

on the 29th and 30th of May 2010, Midwest Games International was held at Purdue University! Went there on thursday night to visit Wani n her baby first in Ohio, then smbung balik the trip to purdue on Friday afternoon.
*Baby is only 7 months old when he was born, so kena masuk NICU =)*


*proud mother is on the wheelchair =)*

2nd time tgk her baby boy, da kurang la merah2 kulit dia =) but rambut sgt lebat okie!! insya-Allah he will be a bright n guuudd boy =)

sampai2 Purdue, trus go to Knight's Inn n pindah2 beg sume, n berehat =)

mlm tu pegi to some ceramah. Org2 from UMP, Sirim, Mohsti (kot) n Bank Negara ade bagi talk. Dah bwat org plan a bit for the future sob3 :P
Tp really liked Mr Adhari (klu tak silap) speech! 13 years huh? Not that long u know =) Thank you very much for the aspiring speech! =D

Will do remember your advices =)

Then Saturday was the day~ pegi badminton at 8am, tgk2 rupa2nya men's singles starts first. Ours was after lunch at 1pm. So keluar trus pegi field to support women's soccer punya team.

*PSU women's soccer team! =D*
sampai2 tak sempat nak tgk the match, tapi it was a draw =)

Then ade opening ceremony at 10am. Start lmbt a bit sbb org2 penting terlmbt skit sbb salah time zone haha XD
*the stage was huge n beautiful! tapi panasss aaaaaa XD*
It was burning hot, tp Pennstate dgn bersemangatnya dok jugak tgh2 panas tu, semata2 utk sokong our friends that will perform for the role-calling competition. Bersemangat gila Pennstate!! =D

*tgh duduk tgh2 panassssssss XD*

Kita dgn bersemangatnya telah bersama2 heeyyyooohhh, n we won the piala yaayyy!!! XD

*senior with piala. No pic of piala alone, maap budin! XD*

then it wuz judgement time. Went to RSC building b4 1. Ended up waiting for quite some time. N masa da start berlawan, suppose to lawan with someone named Su Ann, tp entah sape yg I lawan hahahaha so serabut XD
Tp kena blasah ckop2 adoii kalah truk :P

I wuz told that me n Shamilah was gonna fight for third place. It was a close call, n i got the third place =)

but somehow, i think everything is very serabut, takde referee :P

thenn da abis, tgk org maen volley.

Mlm tu balik inn, everyone was sosososo tiredd, sume zzzz =)

Then it was sunday. No more sports, tp bersemangat bangon awal2 to support our friends in volleyball n soccer! Jerit sekuat hati okie haha XD

Had lunch with an old friend, tp kecoh plak warga2 pennstate :P

Then pegi sokong tug-of-war pulak. Susah okie to tarik the tali! XD

To all MWGi committee, I wish u guys congratulations for your hard work. Even though there were lots of flaws here n there, but don't be discouraged wat others have to say. Learn from past mistakes, and you will do much better in the future! =)

Other people might be able to very good at judging us, but they are doing so as they don't know how much effort u guys put into this event to even make it happen.

Hey, even I have my own dissatisfaction with some things of the event. But I btol2 terasa kesian with the committee, because I've been in u guys punya shoes ;)

Jadi rakan2, dun give discouraging comments, but encouraging comments ya! =) Bukan senang okie nak handle such a big event! Klu u guys want things to be much better next time, why not u guys volunteer for next year's event? That'll be a done deal, tak yah complain2 da ;p

Till next time! =)

*bekal balik to Pennstate! =)*
