Date: 1/08/2008 till 3/08/2008
Venue: Faculty of Engineering, UPM

Dis is suppose to be up..very very very long ago.
Forgive me that I don't have much time to blog about this.

First, let me introduce to u wht is NACES...
It's jus something like a conference, tht gathers all the chemical engineering students from public uni and some private colleges.
In these 3 days, there were ice-breaking games, d usual...some talks n forums....some activities of course (eg. station games), technical powerpoint presentation and essay competition.
D essay competition's deadline ended b4 NACES starts. So, it will only hold the prize giving ceremony..

A few of us joined the technical powerpoint presentation, n it's very very stressful..
Appreciate the chance very much from all d seniors.

Jus a brief bout wht v did during the 3 days...
The opening ceremony was fab! then slideshow for the opening is cool~
Of course...all my seniors are fantastic!

This post is actually dedicated to all my seniors for their help during NACES..
Typed this post way before...duno when d. sryyy...

"I have no idea how to thank all of u..
The seniors are really really really really supportive and helpful!
All d last minute work, last minute tips....very much appreciated..
I don't know bout the others, but I really do appreciate it lots n will never ever forget!

Let's see a bit of who my seniors are =P...

Ying Hong:
A walking chemical engineering handbook..any terms u named, he'll know bout it.
Thanks for being there for us anytime v msged or called, even though he himself is so so busy..
A big thanks for being thr during our presentation even though u r having fever that time..it meant a lot to us~
I still remembered hw tired and "blurred" or should i use, exhausted u look in the presentation hall that time..haha
Thanks for giving me the chance to learn from u during NACES!
And also thanks for the money, Mr. treasurer! =P
How can i ever repay u? >.<

Jason:
Another walking chem engineering handbook.. =P
This senior here is famous for his superb brain but then he is also superb on editing powerpoint slides!
Imagine he "madeover" our slides in jus 2 days!!!
Our slides are now presentable n attractive!
He edited all the slides according to all our preferences, planned an interesting intro for willie and the news articles which supported our title very very much..
It's really such a waste tht u couldnt see our presentation since u were on duty in another presentation hall =(

Hwei Lin:
Our very leng lui super senior.. =P
Also our very creative senior..
Came out with our slides' templates in jus one night!
But then it can only take her one night coz she is also very busy n her schedule is fully packed.

Mee Khuan:
Another leng lui super senior =D
She helped us lots on figuring the economic analysis for our presentation..
Estimated cost for the plantation, the harvesting period, the period of time required to gain back all the investment..blah blah blah
V dont know any of all these..she taught us!

Teik Chow:
He was too busy to notice us i guess. haha...but he still make it to our presentation =)
And thanks to all d really last minute advices (really last minute, mayb like 30 minutes or less b4 our presentation, when v were already in the hall?)
and to calm us down? additional points added for ur "super sexy" voice? haha..
FYI, he shouted till he got serious sore throat jus after the first day of NACES..
I have a feeling u were much more nervous than us, or me at least =P

Alvin:
Our dearest director of NACES 2008.
Firstly, a big congratz to him for NACES being so successful~
I dont have to mention i guess. As usual, he wont even have time to rest himself.
But thanks a lot, alvin. He promised us to make it to our presentation n he did... =)
I hope v didnt waste ur time for bringing u in to see our presentation.
Not to forget all the advices on the night before the presentation day.
I sincerely apologize for partially ignored one of the most important advices u gave us.
If not, v might have won the trophy for UPM *sobs*
We will never ever repeat that mistake again.

Hong Tat:
The senior that don't really comment much. He jus listened?
Tht's wht he did after our presentation. His unique way of encouraging us mayb?

Jacklyn:
I gav u a lot of troubles? hehe..
The academic and competition unit director. was under her unit..
Was under her in ChESS also..working with her too much till i m giving her too many troubles
She couldnt help us much on the presentation since she is supposed to be fair being the unit director who is in-charge of it.
Duno hw to thank u o *speechless d*

Dr Chuah n Dr Thomas:
Thanks to dr fr both the info n advices!!
n being so supportive =) "
