Senior Farewell thanks

Published by admin under Events

Hey everyone,

Thanks for coming down to the Senior Farewell this evening. I hope that you enjoyed the event, and once again, would like to congratulate those who are graduating and wish them all the best as they leave MIT.

I would like to thank the following people for their help before and during the event:

  • Samantha, Ruijie and Amelia for ordering and picking up the catered food for the event.
  • Wenxian, Guo-Liang, Shirleen and Amelia for the design of the senior gift.
  • Cheryl, Jit Hin, Kong-Jie and others for kindly lending us their rice cookers.
  • The committee: Shirleen, Jeremy, Samantha, Amelia, Cheryl, Jit Hin for planning and organising the event.
  • And everyone else who helped out during the event whose names I have missed out.

The design of the gift is available at:
http://www.customink.com/designs/reallyfin/12749215-2696402/hotlink?cm_ven=hotlink&cm_cat=2&cm_pla=Body_txt&cm_ite=design,
and if there’s enough interest, we can modify the design for a general MITSSS shirt in the Fall.

On behalf of the MITSSS committee,
Jonathan

Senior Farewell

Published by admin under Announcements, Events

Hi everyone,

The new committee would like to invite everyone to a final gathering for
this school year.  It’d be great to meet up with everyone before people take
off for the summer. Most importantly, this will be your last chance to see
off the graduating seniors, many of whom have put a lot of sweat, blood, and
tears into organizing and participating in so many great events, and who
have made the MITSSS a home away from home.

When: Sat May 16th, 6pm
Where: Sidney-Pacific Seminar Room
What: Final gathering, Senior farewell, catered dinner.

So that we can plan for the right amount of food, reply to let me know if
you’re coming (yqsoh@mit.edu), and if you’re graduating or leaving Boston
this fall, please state that too.

I hope to see many of you there!

On behalf of the new MITSSS committee,
Shirleen

Hey everyone,

On behalf of the committee I would like to thank all of you that showed up today. I hope that you enjoyed the event as much as we did organizing it. If you have any comments or feedback about the event please feel free to share them with us.
In particular I would like to thank the following people for their valuable help, without which the event could not have taken place:
  • Peiying & KwangYong for the wonderful decorations and lantern riddles
  • Jit Hin, Cheryl, Winnie, Wei Li, Ruijie, Amelia + a number of others who were responsible for all the excellent food! They spent almost the entire event time in the kitchen preparing all the food so please do thank them if you get the chance.
  • Michael & ChunYang for organizing the Mahjong and Poker games
  • Sarah & Kah Keng for buying all the groceries and picking up all the catered food for the event and helping out during the event as well
  • Shirleen & Guo-Liang for reserving the venue and helping in the kitchen too
  • Jonathan, Wenxian, Willie, Jeremy, Wuisiew, Alice for volunteering and helping out wherever needed
  • My committee Jit Hin, Charmaine and Alice for planning and organizing the event
  • And everyone else who helped out in one way or another! I’m sure I definitely will have missed out a few names but you have my sincerest gratitude. 
For those who are interested the winners of the contests were:
Poker - Christian
Mahjong - Shiyun 
Lantern Riddles - Hongye & Sarah

Lastly, I’ve put up some of the photographs of the event on our picasa website @ http://picasaweb.google.com/mitsss08/ChineseNewYear2009#slideshow If you have taken any more photos, please let me know and I can arrange for you to upload them too.
All the best for the upcoming semester and hope to see more of you at our future events.

cheers,
Kwan Chong
