New semester,New Happenings

Actually it has been quite a while since Pre Med Society has organize any events.So for this semester we have many new events lined up just for you guys and gals out there in Taylors.

First up is ECA day.ECA actually stands for Extra Curricular Activities.For this sem,there is going to be another ECA day.However until today we at Pre Med Society do not know whether this ECA day is going to be a small one like in first semester where everyone just register their names in various clubs and societies or it is going to be done in a large scale where there will be some great events organized by our college lined up specially for us.As I write,this matter is still undecided yet by the management of our college.Whatever the outcome we are planning to have a charity booth to raise funds for HOSPIS Malaysia.So we hope you guys and gals can come to our booth and donate some money to support HOSPIS Malaysia's good cause.(If you people aren't sure of what HOSPIS Malaysia does refer to the last post below for more info).Anyway there will be flyers put up by our society before this event to let all of you know.

Next up is an event which will invovle HOSPIS Malaysia.There will either be a talk by HOSPIS Malaysia's representative or we will organize a community service trip to their charity home.Details will be posted ASAP once our president Colin has confirmed it with their General Manager.

There will also be a blood drive campaign happening soon.Again Colin will have to confirm with Miss Shirley about this matter.Also there might be another talk but details of this talk will be confirm ASAP.

Finally there will be another AGM meeting with you guys most likely next week Tuesday from 3.00-3.30pm.Details of this also happen to be not confirmed yet as there is difficulty in booking the lecture hall for this.In this meeting,we will once again brief all of you guys and gals on the events I wrote earlier.

Once everything is settled,I will once again post all the details on this blog.So keep an eye for newer post!I really apologize on behalf of Pre Med Society for all this "not confirmed yet" stuff that I have written.Really since the second semester we,the board members have been very busy with our studies as well as trying to plan events for you guys.Really sorry .... =*[

Anyway that's all for now. =]

Semester 2

Semester 2. second half of year 2007.

So far, we have three interesting events lined up.

1) Hospis Malaysia
2) Blood Donation Drive
3) ECA day.

I'll briefly describe each event.

Hospis Malaysia, this is a voluntary organization helping those who are seriously ill, or near death. I honestly feel, alot of us pre medical students are very stuck up on saving lives only. but there are of course certain aspects of medicine, where doctors cant do anything anymore. the best is to provide the best quality of life to our future patients. this is where palliative care comes in. We'd help this people who really need all the support that they can get. Currently we are unsure of the number of people into this program. but i plan this to be a weekend thing where we go in groups. so they get constant help and of course some of you guys would be busy during the weekends, so it makes it very flexible.

Blood donation drive, is just a blood donation drive. cannot elaborate much yet.

ECA DAY, as rachel is planning this up, there is gonna be a fund raising, for a certain charity group. and as well as getting people registered.

Oh yeah and i forgot 17 July 2007 (date is 99.9% finalized) , there is a womans health talk going on, ladies its your chance to win free goodies, and learn more on improving your health etc. conducted by the gynecologists society of malaysia.
PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD. Just be free on that day guys, and i will post up the venue and time very soon.


Oh and yes, if any one requires hospital attachment, please leave a comment on the tag box, i will do my best to assist you in getting a place.

Colin.
