Meeting Dr M

Behold the only man on earth who can make Wei Liang stammer!

Dr M!
The one shaking hands with him, that's Wei Liang.
It's not that I'm a super big fan of him but never in my wildest dream I imagine...

..sitting a couple of seats away from Dr M and wife

..taking a picture with him..be it personally

or in a group

But thanks to The Seminar Pembangunan Insan held last week in University of Melbourne, I gained this golden opportunity. I hesitated to extend my stay in Melbourne just to attend this but Wei Liang insisted, "Hey, Yeam..once in a lifetime you know. How often do you get the chance to meet him?"

To all INTEC readers, guess who we met?
It's Madam Laura, our English teacher! Who would've guessed, right?
She's in Uni Mel doing her postgrad starting this year.

Shahir and Atuk were also there

Kak Sha and her mum!

They were there because Kak Sha's brother(in red tie) was the emcee that day.

He surprisingly didn't speak too long..only for half an hour..when the first two speakers spoke for an hour and a half each.

With Amir, Rhun Kiet, and Dr Ali, the representative of Malaysian Students' Department in Victoria.
Thanks a lot to Amir and Rhun Kiet for securing a place for me in the seminar since the waiting list had at least 100+ ppl in it.
