Last Call!

Dear all,

We wish to inform you that the LAST day to submit your suggested themes is 9.00 p.m. 2/6/08 (Monday).

Voting will commence on 3/6/08 (Tuesday) once the voting list is out; you will be duly notified via emails , blog or msn shout-out.

Voting closes on 4/6/08 (Thursday) and the theme will thus be finalised.

We have tried our best to get everyone's attention regarding this by many means, be it shout-out on msn, emails and more emails, or words of mouth. We believe that sufficient time has been given and we seek your kind cooperation in spreading the words around to your friends =) Only with a theme, can the graphics & design team progress in the production of our convo mag. We do not wish to rush through our convo mag amidst reading piles of journals, finalising our thesis, clerking cases and doing case presentations in future sems.

We wish to thank all those who have contributed your views/comments and have been actively involved in keeping this blog alive lols. Please keep this spirit up!!

The bolded themes above are those that ppl have expressed likings for. For your info, our mpharm friend's have 'Fragments of Memories' as their theme. Thus, I am not in favour of any theme with 'memories' (like 'painting memories' though it is good) as it will reflect the lack of creativity among pharmacy group, what more when there ain't much gap in betwen our 2 batches.


Elaine found out that wai k had posted for themes suggestion in lowyat forum.

'Currently,we are still trying to come out with a name for our convocation/graduation magazine.Everyone gave out names which are quite "generic" and we wish to have something unique and memorable.'

I shall post some replies here so u all can have a wider option:
31. Overdose
32. Critically Acclaimed
33. Drug Store Journal
34. Final Dosage
35. Final Bolus (what wai k suggested previously)


For laughter's sake, here are some (not serious) replies:
Since after this u going 2 get a job, why not "From the melting pot into the frying pan".
' The Drug Addict Collection'


Do bear in mind that the theme should reflect what we have been through and what memories we would like to leave behind. Being catchy is not really a must, but a bonus. Thanks everyone for the comments, voting will commence once we have received enough comments. *hint to committee members*

Blog Revived!

Since it is holz now, I hope that we could discuss about our funding for convo mag as well as starting to plan the convo mag itself ^_^

I have received ZERO reply to my mass email to the class; so I hope by initiating discussion in this blog, there will be progress.

First of all, we need to decide on the THEME. This is of great urgency as hh would like yeu l to design a logo, and he is flying off soon. Moreover, with the theme settled, we can then start planning for the contents itself.


The page that elaine posted with many themes to trigger your minds =)

Here were Wai Kit's comments in the post some time ago:
THE BOOK. (BOLD letters under which with fine print: 'that you'll keep forever... HOPEFULLY')

Where'd My 4 Years Gone?

Final bolus.

Something to add at the back cover of the mag:
-Ok,what's next? (really tiny print at the bottom)


Let's start putting on our thinking caps!!

p/s: please check your email for the password and user name to publish a post in this blog =D Committee members, may I request you to spare some time in replying to my previous mail (regarding funding, Profiles, Polls & Dedications). Thanks a bunch !! (^.^)


cheers,
