18th Aug (Sat) Mini Gathering
A few of us are planning to meet up this coming Saturday, 18th August 2007 @ 2030hrs onwards (that's 830pm). A few reasons for this mini gathering...
1. Last one we had was sometime early this year
2. Winnie will be leaving for UK soon
(Do you really need a reason to meet up with old friends?!?)
We are planning to meet up at Island Cafe in SS2. We're picking this place because it is 'near' Seaport. Also, we have some friends staying in Shah Alam, others in Kota Damansara and a few in KL. So best would still be some place familiar and not too expensive.
Island Cafe is the corner shop located in the same row as Systematic and McDonald's. In fact, it is at the opposite end of McDonald's. :)
If can, do confirm your participation by leaving a comment. If you do not have a Blogger account, just select Others and don't forget to type in your name. We hope to see you there this Saturday... :)
For further enquiries, please call Adrian @ 012 3315731.

http://seaport.adriantai.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=15
Do leave your comments here or in the forum. Actually, I would prefer we start to use the forum for a few reasons:
- you can remain anonymous and be able to post (I think a lot of ppl want this based on some horror experience) by unchecking 'show email address'
- moderation on my part will be made easier as I can just easily impose a ban based on nick
- forum is hosted 100% on ONE server and does not rely on external services like Blogger, thus increasing reliability

Mini Gathering at Island Cafe, SS2
Hi guys and gals...
We're meeting up TONIGHT (16th March 2007) at Island Cafe in SS2. A few of us will be there from 2030hrs onwards. Island Cafe is just next to Systematic College. It is on the same row as McDonald's, but on the other end.
I've been there once and they have quite an extensive menu for both food and drinks.
So see you there tonight! By the way, we have a certain doctor from the US of A back in Malaysia for a short holiday and he will be joining us as well. Yup, Nicholas is back in town!

Photos: Kayu Mini Gathering
Meeting up with old friends is always fun. There's always a lot to catch up with and yet, so little time. I guess many of us who showed up on Friday night felt that way.

From left to right, we have:
Kim Chuan (*), Dean, Eu Jin, Winnie, Tzeh Kang, Chin Ling (partially hidden), Alfred (*), Irene, Mun San, Jude (*), Sherman, Kok Loong, Ah B, Chih Hsiung and Peck Yen.
(*) means the person is standing in the photo.
Winnie managed to sell the charity coupons to a few of us... Here's how generous Chih Hsiung can be:

Winnie, you may use this photo as evidence that you're fully committed to your company... Just remember me when you get your HUGE pay rise.
Oh ya Winnie... Thank you for the dried mangoes. I guess everyone enjoyed them...

Here's another photo of the gang...

You can also find more photos from Dean's blog at http://deanarif.blogspot.com.
Well, hope that these photos will make you want to join us for the next mini gathering. We're not sure when or where... But we will definitely need your support and suggestions (karaoke, anyone?!). Till next time...

ALUMNI: June Gathering @ Souled Out
Guys and girls...
For June, the monthly Alumni meet will be held at Souled Out. Party will start at 1900hrs. It will be held this coming Tuesday evening - 6th June 2006.
If you are wondering why it is held on Tuesday night, do drop by and ask the committee members. All your questions will then be answered. ;)
Do try to make it there and give the Alumni your support. The Alumni is only as good as its members make it to be. We have to all give our support. So, see you there and hope you sign up as a member!
Also, I have been told by the president that the next activity after this Souled Out gathering will most likely be a friendly bowling game. More details will be announced there and then.

Mega Teh Tarik (Informal) Session
Here's something from Dean...
***************************
Hello there!
I'm Dean M. Z. Arif, a committee member from SP Alumni, the students' alumni for Sri Permata Secondary School or formerly known as Seaport Secondary.
We have recently reactivated the association and we would like to invite you for a "teh tarik" session on 9th May 2006, 8.30 p.m. onwards at Syed SS6 (the corner mamak restaurant on the same row as the old Giant Supermarket).
The objective of this session is to introduce the working committee members and our objectives, besides an opportunity to catch up with some old friends.
We would also be giving the ex-students an opportunity to renew orsign-up as members of our Alumni.
If you know of anyone in your year that you would like us to get in touch with, just email the name and contact details to me at deanarif@gmail.com. Alternatively, you can just forward this email to your friends.
I hope to see you there! Please reply to me soon to confirm your availability.
Thanks and warm regards,
Dean

A recent mini gathering
A few friends recently met up for drinks and to catch up with the latest gossips...

click to view large, hi-res image
It was made special with the fact that Dr. Nicholas CHOONG was back in town. We were able to spend a few hours talking about anything and everything... Full of enthusiasm too, as evident from the next photo!

click to view large, hi-res image
(by the way, the photos were taken with my new digital camera - Kodak V570)
Dean also took the opportunity to recruit more members for the alumni.
I guess we all had some fun. Till the next one... Whenever and wherever it will be...

Alumni AGM write-up
This is what greets you when you walk into the school:

My first thought was "Has the students from this school gotten that bad?". Then I realised that the message could be meant for the teachers...
Anyway, somethings never change... Which is sometimes good... The canteen remains the way I remembered it...

click to view large, hi-res image

click to view large, hi-res image
Food has gotten better, I guess, from the menu that was posted...

click to view large, hi-res image

click to view large, hi-res image
Anyway, back to the AGM... In case you never realised, the Alumni's registered name is actually - THE ALUMNI ASSOCIATION OF SEKOLAH MENENGAH SRI PERMATA PETALING JAYA SELANGOR. *phew*
Good news is we've adopted a shorter name during the AGM - SP Alumni.
The turnout was rather bad, in my opinion considering that the school's been around for more than 20 years and less than 30 people attended the AGM. Oh well, things can only get better.
We have a new committee and they seem very, very serious about getting the Alumni up and running. So I sincerely hope everyone here will give their full support as well. Like any society or organisation, they need our support - be it financially or morally. So do register as a member, ok?
Honestly, there's not much to say about the AGM. The minutes should be up on the Alumni website in a week or two. It will probably be Zaifuddin's first task anyway... Yes, Zaifuddin (or Dean) has been elected Honorary Secretary.
I guess that's all for now...

Seen here are two ex-students saying to each other "Syabas kerana anda hadir ke sekolah"

Chinese New Year plans
Hi all,
This post is to make it easy for everyone to update the rest about your plans, etc for the coming Chinese New Year (CNY). Please feel free to leave CNY RELATED replies in the comments...

Anyway, wishing everyone a Gong Xi Fa Cai and may the new year bring lots of good health, wealth and fortune!
Adrian TAI will be in town (Petaling Jaya). Tentatively NO plans for the CNY yet. A few of us are planning to meet up and collect lots of angpows on the 1st Feb 2006 (Wednesday).

Sing your way to 2006!
The present year will come to and end soon... What have you done in 2005? And what are your plans for 2006?
A few of us plan to meet up on the 2nd Jan 2006 (Monday). It will be at Star KTV (again?!)... In case you're wondering, no... It is not that I really 'hadap' to sing. I just figured that it would be a good way to meet up. We get one room to ourselves... We can go crazy and no one can stop us (well, at least so far no one has tried). Plus, screaming is a good way to release stress.
So, the plan is to meet up at Star KTV at Bangsar Shopping Complex from 1400hrs (that's 2pm). We should be there till about at least 1800hrs... Hopefully to be followed by dinner together.
Damage for karaoke is expected to be about rm45 per person. You will get 2 complimentary drinks.
However, you are adviced to make up your mind and inform Adrian TAI at 012 3315731 by 1800hrs, 31st Jan 2005 because he needs to book a room. The size of the room we will get depends on the number of turnouts. So please give him a call...
Spouse, kids, girlfriend, boyfriend, neighbour's wife... All welcomed. Sorry, no pets.

Movie: Narnia (CANCELLED)
(updated on 23rd Nov 2005)
Due to extremely poor response, this event has been cancelled. As you know, the cinema operators require about 1 month notice/ confirmation. Since we do not have the quota to fill up the 100 seats or so, I have to cancel this.
(posted on 10th Oct 2005)
Guys and gals...
How would a movie gathering sound to all of you? I might be able to get the whole hall for the movie Narnia on the 17th Dec 2005 (Sat) at GSC 1U, 1030hrs.
Of course we will have to pay for it. But imagine... A cinema of friends and family. There will not be any discounts but we will have the whole hall.
I have asked around and the smallest hall we can get is for 100pax. Can we get that many? If we take the whole hall, we have to pay for all the seats. Appreciate comments...
FYI, Narnia is expected to be a blockbuster and will be released on the 8th Dec 2005. Harry Potter expected to be released sometime end Nov 2005.

Karaoke @ Star KTV, BSC
Apologies for the last minute announcement again. This is a last minute arrangement.
A few of us are planning to have a mini Frenz Idol at Star KTV located in Bangsar Shopping Complex. Who are the 'few'? There's Kean Lai (yes, he's back till Wednesday), Jude, Wei Loong, Adrian, etc...
We plan to take the happy hour package which gives us free room but with a minimum order of ONE drink per person. Happy hour starts from 1600 hrs till 2100 hrs.
Note that this plan is subject to last minute cancellation (in case Jude and Wei Loong chickens out after finding out Adrian will be there). But seriously, please call Adrian TAI at 012-3315731 for further details. Fans are welcomed too... :)
And Happy Holidays to everyone. Happy Deepavali and Selamat Hari Raya!!!

Gathering... Update 2
A message from fellow x-Seaportian:
Hi All,
Not sure who the all are but for those who still remembers me, HOPE TO SEE MORE PEOPLE CONFIRM MEETING UP FOR THIS GATHERING aka unofficial alumni.
It's been ten years since we've left good ol' SEAPORT, and i'm sure in this ten years a lot has happened in our lives after going our separate ways. Upon hearing this gathering, I'm really excited about it, and anxious to see how everyone (including those who hasn't confirmed/isn't aware of this gathering) is doing!i'm guilty of not keeping in touch with my ex-classmates, i admit it... and am SHOCKED to find that some 'classmates' have married each other!
anyhoooo.... all these juicy goss can be exchanged during this gathering no?so let's spread the word & try to get at least 50 fellas on board eh?
it seems like adrian is the only one pushing it with the Alumni at the mo(correct me if i'm wrong please as i HATE adrian taking all the glory!!!hehe), but in the event that we cannot achieve the number, what do you guys say we still meet up somewhere for tea?
hope to hear from y'all soon!
cheers!

Gathering... Update
Sad to say, the response to date isn't so good. We hope everyone can pass the word around and get back to us ASAP. It is now FEB, and the response is NOT really picking up. This is SAD guys. The reason why we are planning ahead is so that you can block of this particular weekend. Yet, I get answers like "I cannot plan that far ahead", etc...
We would like you to look at this not only as a social gathering, but an opportunity to renew business contacts and networks.
Anyway, deadline is now extended till 29th FB 2004.
FYI, I have been told that the Alumni/ School will not be taking over the management of this event. But I believe there will be representatives from the Alumni board/ school present.

Gathering...
A few of us are planning to organize a gathering for all the old boys and girls of Sek. Men. Seaport. At the moment, this is still NOT an official gathering organized by the Old Boys Alumni. We are in the process of contacting the board members to get them to take over the management of this event.
Do note that this event is NOT limited to those graduating in 1993. Everyone is more than welcomed to join this event. We are planning this event as a means of getting everyone and keeping everyone together. Over time, we will update this website and perhaps even move over to an official one.
The (tentative) details of the events are as follows:
Date : 8th MAY 2004 (Saturday)
Time : 1500 – 1830hrs
Venue : Eastin Hotel, Petaling Jaya, Selangor.
Charges : Approximately rm50 per person.
Kindly email us if you are interested in sponsoring this event with the subject.
Contact : Adrian TAI @ 012 3315731
Soon to come is the list of all confirmed coming to this event. Watch out for it! At the moment, we are only targeting a measly 50 people, but if the response is great, we are more than happy to oblige everyone. Feel free to pass the word around to all former Sek. Men. Seaport or Sek. Men. Sri Permata students about this event. We would like to confirm the venue and raise the funds for this event before 29th FEB 2004.
What you think about this event? Feedbacks welcomed!
