Brukeele celebrate Brunei's 27th National day

On the 26th February 2011 (Saturday), BruKeele celebrated Brunei's 27th National Day at 7pm at Barnes Social space. About 50 Bruneian were present at that time and thanks to those who came. And credit goes to Haadi Ahmad, Wazien Norhalim, Afiq Mahmud and Nadz Harris for organising the event.

The event started with the singing of Brunei's National anthem, followed by Doa Selamat and dinner. Not to mention, there was also singing a song of "Tekad Kemerdekaan", thanks to Adibah Mateen for printing the lyrics and suggestion.

Surprisingly another event was already planned after that, two games were organised that night.

First game (Charades):- Each person from a group act out a movie or song so that their team-mate can guess it and wins a point; although the rules had to change every round because most of the participants were supportive and can guess it swiftly. At the end of the game, Group 3 was declared the winner in which the group consists of Izza Kader, Atik, Farhan, Arif Hussin and Adib. Congratulation to them.

However after the game,some people went home but the second game still continued on. Thanks to those who stayed and willingly to play another game.

Second game, 'Like Chinese Whisper' game was held however it was a bit different. Instead of whispering, each person must act out anything that was written on a piece of paper to their teammate in front of them. And the person at the very front must guess what it is.

IT WAS A LOT OF FUN!! and quite a noisy night.It was awesome.


I forgot to mention, at that night, new election for Brukeele executive 2011 was held and the new appointed officers are:

President : Adibah Mateen
Vice President: Muhammad Zuhri Zulkifli
General Secretary: Muai
Public Relation: Farhan Hassan
Event coordinator: Afiq Mahamud and Arif Hussin
Finance secretary: Nadzirah Harris
Religious Officer: Haadi Ahmad and Munirah
IT officer : Ahmad Hadzirun

Congratulations to them!!and I hope that this kind of event is organise often in the future. Brukeele is awesome!!

Thanks to Izza Kader for the picture.

P.S: I'll put in the video of that night soon to this blog so look forward to it.Cheers!!

Happy 27th National day!!

Brukeele wish Happy 27th National Day to our Beloved country,Brunei Darussalam.

It's quite depressing and a bit disappointed that we're not in Brunei and aren't together with our family on such special day.However,we can just watch online or perhaps watch on a video sharing website like Youtube if anyone from Brunei upload a celebration video on the special day.



National day Slogan for this year : "Negaraku Brunei Darussalam"

Setelah sekian lama tidak menyanyi kan lagu kebangsaan, Here's the video of the song and it's lyric.

"Ya Allah Lanjutkan lah usia,

Kebawah Duli Yang Maha Mulia,
Adil berdaulat menaungi nusa,
memimpin rakyat kekal bahagia,
hidup sentosa negara dan Sultan,
Ilahi Selamatkan Brunei Darussalam."

Exam results!!

It's already a week since the released of the exam result.
Congratulations to those who passed their modules and don't be depressed to those who didn't do well. Do your best again. We still got a second semester to go.

Cheer up!! Brukeele wishes everyone the best!! You can do it!!

Awesome Paintball game on last saturday!!

On last saturday(12th feb 2011),1st paintball game for Brukeele was held.Despite the bruise and pain we got from it,It was fun and exciting game.It was muddy and adrenaline-pumping sport.

In case you people forgot,Here's what we did on that day:

People was divided into two team(red and blue) and fought each other in three game maps:

1.Rubber rampage(2 rounds):Each team needs to get to the opposite side of the map and capture opponent's flag while defending your own flag.Time limit 6 mins and 1st 4 mins for unlimited respawning.Won by blue team

2.Castle(2 round):Each team gets to be defending castle and attacking castle.No time limit.The fastest team to attack in a very fast time wins the game.Blue team won the game again in 8 min

3.Village(2 round):Each team gets to be defending and attacking an area.To win the game,attacking team must raise flag in the defending area.There's time limit but sorry i forgot.
However this time,Red team won the game giving them 10 points.

OVERALL:it's a draw 10-10.

BruKeele Paintball

Hello BruKeele, There will be a paintball event next Saturday, 12th February 2011, especially for all BruKeele members (you may bring some friends if you want - just inform us early, thanks). Time open and close: 9.15 am - 4 pm. Time if we're playing half-day: 9.15 am - 1 pm. Further information (email sent by their Director):- We would be happy to host your paintballing event from Keele. We already work with your paintballing society and I would be happy to offer the same favourable terms that we give the society - details as follows. £10 game fee (You would need to collect this in advance of the day of play) and either pay buy card, drop the money at the site or we could arrange for collection at the KPA. This would then secure your booking and would include all game fees, equipment hire, lunch and complementary tea and coffee thought-out the day. We always sell Keele players additional paintballs at £5 for 100 balls after they have purchased the bag of paintballs (500 balls at £25). Players use between 500 and 800 paintballs per day at most sites in the country. We have packages for half a day as follows: 300 balls £20 400 balls £25 This package structure is as follows - £10 day fee with 100 balls given as a replacement for lunch, 200 or 300 further balls at £5 per 100 making a total of 300 or 400 paintballs. These packages are paid for at the time of booking. As you can see it is far better to get 300 paintballs for £20 than 200 for £17. Your £35 deal for 500 paintballs is broken down as follows: A whole days game play £10 including lunch, equipment hire, up to 12 games and free tea and coffee all day, plus 500 paintballs. Thereafter paintballs are discretely sold to your group only at £5 per 100 instead of £7. All I ask is that your party come discreetly to the office to buy their paint when other clients are also buying paint. Please give me a call if you need to discuss any further. Warmest regards, John Green Director Summary:- Price (two sets): Set A - £35 for full day, with lunch break (extra 100 pallets £5.00) - £10 deposit, and £25 on the day itself. Set B - £20 for half day w/o lunch break (300 pallets, 6 games) - need to pay £20 in advance. What does it include - coveralls, protection, semi-auto gun, battle pack. How many games we're going to play - 12 (full-day), 6 (half-day). What to wear - clothes that you don't want to ruin; simple clothes, sport shoes. Are we going to play against other people???? - As long as there are more than 16 of us, paying for Set A, then the answer is NO. If some are paying for Set A, then we may have to play with other people (like less than 10 other people).
