Hi everyone!

Thanks to everyone who came last night to the BBQ!  We were very happy to have so many of you join us, including the people from BU, Harvard, and Boston in general.  We hope you met some new faces, and enjoyed the satay, otak, chicken wings, and bee hoon which took a lot of sweat and blood (literally) to prepare.

Special thanks must go to the following people –

** Coordination and organization:

Jeremy, Jonathan, Jit Hin, Samantha

** Food prep, BBQ, cleanup:

Ninghan, Kwang Yong, Kong Jie, Jiawei, Shawn, Cheryl, Guo-Liang, Wenxian, Yoong Keok, Joanne, Winnie, Amelia, Ruijie, Jiachuan, Jinfeng, Richie, Christian, Myron, Beverley

We could not have organized the welcome without the help of all our volunteers.  Please forgive me if I’ve missed your name (and shoot me an email to let me know!).  Let us know also if there was anything that could have been done better.

Our next big event will be Kopitiam, which will be tentatively held on the 31^st of Oct, Sat.  Dishes in the past have included chilli crab, chicken rice, carrot cake, laksa, kaya toast, bandung, and whatever other recipes other people have to share.  KIV the date as we will need many volunteers again to help, and even more people to eat!

Thanks again,

Shirleen and the MITSSS committee

Hi everyone,

The Welcome BBQ will be held next Saturday, so we will be doing the preparation and shopping from Friday afternoon onwards. The prep will be done in S-P, like before National Day, except that there will be twice as much food, so if you’re free this Friday for either shopping or prep, let us know and we’ll keep you updated.

Tentatively, shopping will be done after 3 pm and prep will start sometime around 6-7 pm. We will need more help for the preparation though, so please try to keep the date free.

Thanks!
Jonathan

Hi everyone,

Hope you’ve had a great summer, and welcome (back)! We will be holding our annual barbecue at the Kresge BBQ pits on the 19th of September from about 5.30 pm. Come join us for an evening of food, fun and company.

We will be needing volunteers to help purchase, prepare and grill the food on the day itself, so if you’re interested, please let us know. In addition, if you have a car or Costco membership, let us know if you’re willing to help with purchasing and transporting the food.

If you plan to attend the event, please RSVP at http://mitsss.scripts.mit.edu/~wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page

We will post more details as the date approaches, and look forward to seeing you at the event!

Cheers,
Jonathan
