F.E.S.tival - 04.06.08

It's 6th of June.

Happy Birthday my dear Mung Papa!!!

May all your dreams come true... sorry I'm not in Penang again for your birthday but never mind, I just called to wish you right? Miss you!! And again, HAPPY BIRTHDAY~!!!

p/s: Mung papa is not my dad. Just a good friend whom my besties referred him as our papa because he seems like one =)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Finally with my internet line so lag, I successfully uploaded the pictures that I captured in FEStival. Well, won't say I'm a good photographer but hmm, just to let you know more about the whole event.

Basically, this event can be said to be successful. So congratulations to all committee members~!!

But please, please, please, if you all were to organise another FEStival, please don't state that "All societies MUST involve in the fund-raising program". Because all society committees will surely strangle you to death!!! We SHOULD have the right to choose to or not to participate in this event right? You all SHOULDN'T force us to participate! Anyway, it's over and I guess everyone has had their own fun =)

I didn't really follow the entire program flow because I had to "jaga" my society's booth.

Since I'm here, I would like to take this opportunity to promote my society - Traveler's Den.

If you're someone who likes to travel around to experience new things, learn more about the world outside Setapak and make more friends who has this same passion as yours, then you're most welcome to join Traveler's Den. The advantage of becoming a member is, whenever there is a trip going on, you can join at a member rate. Meaning, you'll get a cheaper price compared to non-member =) Visit our booth now in canteen for recruitment. We'll be there until next Wednesday, 11th June 2008.

In front of our booth- we were just doing exhibition for recruitment


Alright, back to the main point. This FEStival has attracted students from different campuses like FICT, FAS, FAM. Of course there are booths selling all sorts of food which include Pearl Milk Tea, Ice Kacang, Pancake, Corn, Toast bread, Spaghetti, Domino's Pizza etc... all prepared by students except for Domino's Pizza. And to add one more thing, their talent in cooking is not bad =) Some booths prepared games like UNO stack, car simulator etc. The purpose of selling food and games is to raise fund for their respective societies.

The usual programs include singing from various "artistes" whom I would not bad. Thumbs up to most of them. They not only sang, but played guitar, keyboard etc. Some "artistes" were our own students but some were guest performers like Feeling Cafe, rock band J4N, Astro Talent Quest Finalist - Vicky etc.

Leo aka Chao Yen - he can play violin, "er hu", saxophone etc.. my music center founder


Dancing is of course part of the program flow. Haha talking about dancing, I finally realised that the guy who is the same lecture as me is actually a great dancer and he was the lead dancer. Not sure about his name but I know that he changed my point of view towards him. I have always thought that he's the quiet type, those who are "si si man man". But when I saw him dancing, I was like, "Whoa, not bad huh!" We really cannot judge a person by his/her outlook. LOL.

Then the parts which attracted many guys were the various fashion shows by designers like Karl Ng, XEX, Tropicana Life and etc. Hairdo and makeup were made by Miko etc. I would say that the Program Manager for FEStival is very "geng" because he can find sooo many renowned sponsors and designers for this event. Compared to me... I already lost 100% to him. SWT.

For the very first time, UTAR's event is sponsored by sponsors like The Star, Digi, Steven's Corner, Tropicana Life, XEX, Karl Ng etc.... Couldn't remember all of them. Hitz.fm cruisers were even invited to come and students grabbed lots of goodies away.

For the very first time I feel that, UTAR's becoming more famous and successful. If you're a UTAR-ian, you'll understand what I'm saying. Not everyone knows about UTAR, but everyone knows about TARC. That's a sad case you know, because UTAR and TARC is just beside each other. Yet, somehow people tend to ignore us though we're actually a university. Some more not those cheap uni k. I wonder why people still don't really know about us. *wondering*

It's not easy to organise such thing actually. You have to be well dedicated like my housemates and those SRC (Student Representative Committee) members. Need lots of time to prepare, find sponsorhip, do publicity, arrange performances and rehearsal for several times. It's really tiring.. and exhausted. But if you're dedicated, you'll enjoy while you're working and will learn many things. I salute them!

Suddenly feel that, I have so much things to learn from them for our upcoming event for freshmen, Welcome Freshmen Concert.

Suddenly, I feel that... we're so far behind. Their event is so grand. Never mind we must be confident!! WFC will be as good as well hehe so please do come and support us at FES Welcome Freshmen Concert on next Friday - 13th June. Thank YOu!!

Alright, now let me tell you what happened in my house during the night before FEStival. Everyone was busy preparing for their booth stuffs. Except Shen Chie, who lacked of sleep for many days due to the workloads of FEStival committee.. she slept very early.

Basically, Shyuan and I were busy decorating our parts for our board. She's in charge of the Perak trip, and I of course was in charge of the 3 Islands trip. We started our work late because initially we were helping out our housemates with their pancakes, we were their guinea pigs=) Or in nicer words, we were the testers for their food. Well, we didn't really help out much though, but played a lot instead haha.

Li Pei and Fern were busy mixing ingredients for their pancakes, trying hard to get the right taste. Tysus came over and helped out. He was actually the main chef of the night and for the next day. A big applause for him!! Imagine, a guy who can't cook anything except for maggi mee can actually do such nice pancakes... it's a wonder!!
p/s: Li Pei and Fern are from Biological Science society.

Told you she played with it. The base of the pancake looks like a glove huh??

1st try - NONO.. lack of some taste..



messy

My house in a state of mess...really messy


Now, it's time for showtime! Those who wish to do simple pancakes, you can have a look how's the procedure looks like. The things that you'll need:

1. Flour
2. Baking powder
3. Eggs
4. Margerin
5. Milk
6. Sugar and salt
7. Vanilla essence
*8. Peanut butter or chocolate spread
* For your preference

I'm sorry that I can't provide you with the exact measurement of the ingredients. They followed the recipe but somehow the taste was not enough. So basically the whole process was of trial and error. Sorry folks!

Below are the procedures:

1. Beat the egg yolks evenly by mixing it with milk.


2. Then mix the flour, baking powder, vanilla essence, with milk and egg yolks.
add egg


3. It's now time for salt and sugar.
cooking


4. After mixing thoroughly, the egg whites are added. If it's not watery enough or too saturated, you can add a little bit of water.


5. Tadaa! The mixture should look something like this.

6. Scoop some of the mixture and spread it evenly on the pancake machine. Then close cover and wait for about 5 minutes.
paste spread


7. Your pancake base should be like this.

8. Spread your favourite jam / peanut butter / chocolate spread / butter on the pancake base.
add butter


9. Roll the base into this long cylindrical shape.
nice


10. Place the completed roll(s) into an oven and toast it for about 5 minutes. The the final outcome of the pancake should look like this!
after toasting


11. Hehe.. then place it nicely on a plate and now your completed pancake is ready to be served!

=================================================

Hehe.. not difficult right? Yea it seems easy but the process of beating and mixing the mixture is tiring. Try it out! Those who have no talent in cooking, if you are thinking of making some kind of food for your bf/ gf/ loved ones.. this should be suitable for you! No harm trying!

Alright, I will end this FEStival thingy here. The next upcoming event in UTAR FES will be Welcome Freshmen Concert. See you guys there soon!

Oh yea just to let all of you know, I'll be off to Genting tomorrow to see The Click Five live in Arena Stars~!!! YAHOOOOO~!!!!!!!!!!!
