TEG World Food Day

Remember my last post regarding TEG World Food Day?
I came across this video and it seems fun and interesting! It gives you a whole idea of how things are done and at the end you can see that the food they packed tasted pretty good. The 375 grams packed food contains 6 meals of soy protein, rice, dried vegtables and nutrint-filled flavoring.

They did one round for food packing in July and managed to packed a whole 10000. I'm gonna give it a go for the next round on the 16th October 2011. They are targeting 1000 volunteers to pack 1 million meal within one day!

What about you?
Can't make it on that day but want to contribute?
They are looking for kind-hearted sponsors and contributors.

An afternoon with Prof. Emeritus Tan Sri Dr. Khoo Kay Kim, I Love Bazaar at Snopz and Personal Development Planning

So we are not all just study and serious talk.

Learn how to build positive synergy through different ethnic diversity with Prof. Emeritus Tan Sri Dr. Khoo Kay Kim.

If we are tired/stress of studying, we pamper ourselves with a little shopping time!

We get ourselves inspired by understanding our personal development planning and check out the previous portfolios. 

Ready for them?!

Sports Nutrition

Taylor's Sports Faculty invited a special speaker from Institut Sukan Negara Malaysia to give a seminar on nutrition for the sports men and ladies of Taylor's University. 

I'm under volleyball club and some other teammates below: 

Miss Azimah is the special guest speaker.

So this is what I learn/gather, I jot down some interesting facts.

1. Guys, your testosterones level is higher in the late evening thus building body will be easier during that time. Girls were advised to build in the morning. 
2. Key factor to lose weight is to do some kind of physical activity. Play it the healthy way.
3. Not eating causes risk on injuries due to weak muscles.
4. Ideally, we should only consume 3 ulas(the inside fruit) of durians. Otherwise, it is considered as excessive consumption. hahaha, too bad for durian lovers
5.  Fats in Avocado are good fats.
6. Males have more lipids around the stomach area while females have more lipids around the butt and thigh area. No wonder I got big thigh!
7. Female has more body fats compare to males as they contains more water than females. Unfair :(
8. Fat cells don't decrease in number, it will only shrink but fat cells can increase in number. so sad
9. Mayo made up of egg yolk + oil = FAT!!!!!
10. Napping should not be more than one hour. Crap.... I sleep too much

 Quite a full house!

Thank you so much for coming! Some token of appreciation.

Fun stuff! Keep it up!

TEG World Food Day, Taylor's Science Discovery Day, SOC New Programmes!

Fuh! So many updates this week and I can't go in detail for each because my classes just started. I will place the link for each announcements below:

World Hunger Crisis: 
Here at Taylor's, we believe strongly in service: not only to our students and our country, but to the world as a whole. Hunger and malnutrition are at the forefront of urgent problems in the world today, especially with the current Somalian crisis. Over a billion people on our earth go hungry every day, and malnutrition plays a role in more than half of all childhood deaths. We believe that this is a severe and urgent problem. More importantly, we believe that all of us are part of the solution. 
Thus, Taylor's Education Group (TEG) has pledged to pack and donate 1,000,000 meals through TEG World Food Day, when we will hold a series of Meal Packaging Events at Taylor's University and Taylor's College campuses as well as Garden International School and Nexus International School on 16 October 2011. Each pack consists of 6 meals. Partnered with NGOs such as Stop Hunger Now and Food for the Hungry International, we aim to pack 166,667 packs (or 1,000,000 meals) to be distributed to crisis-burdened areas or school feeding programmes.

Warning: No Fishing Unless is FISHING DAY!

Our lake is finally utilized! 

Fishing competition was held on the 30 July 2011. It's a Saturday morning and everyone was so ready with their fishing rods in hoping to catch the biggest fish! The twist is that you don't get to keep the fish, it will be released back to the lake. :)

It will be so cool if they allowed students to fish on other days xD
