- What is Pechaa Kuchaa? - It's a presentation concept whereby presenters will only get 20 slides, 19 seconds for each slide (which makes it a total of 6 minutes 30 seconds) to present on a given topic. All 20 slides will consist of ONLY pictures, with no words allowed.
- Is it interesting? - Sounds interesting enough? No? Well, we decided to take Pechaa Kuchaa to a whole new level by turning it into a competition! The competition consists of 2 separate categories: 1. Lecturers versus Lecturers 2. Students versus Students.
- Who is participating? - Come watch as your favourite lecturers and students from various departments present on ridiculous topics!.
- That was some interesting info on the programme that was held last Friday. I'm super tired that day. With a pile of work covering my desk, i slowly look-out for some picture to put on the ppt for the event. To be frank, it's not that easy to find a suitable picture for the presentation.
- Convincing my wife to go for that event also is another big task. She was a bit apprehensive when i told her about this event maybe because we never heard anything similar to this. In short, i faced a lot of obstacle to prepare for this event.
- When i entered the HELP Residensi, the tension is building-up and i never thought that i could perform well. Imagine that i did not event practise using the slides and all i hoped was to be as spontaneous as i can.
- When Magdeline (my student from my Intro to MARCOMM class and she was the MC for the event) called-up my name, i am shaking like i have just taken a shower from the top of Gunung Kinabalu but my experience in hiding it was used to the MAX!!!!!...only good knows how scared i am at that particular moment.
- When the presentation started i have just forgotten how i started it and the slides kept changing and i have to cope with it as well....
- In the end when thay announced my as 2nd runner-up, i was shocked and i could not believe it simply because for an obvious reasons i am not THAT GOOD. But the prizes were very-very good. I got: A hamper, A bouquet of flower, MAC make-up set, Goodie bag from Genting (Including a Instrumental songs CD), RM200 Voucher for a Ayuverdic,Slimming Session and A certificate of participation.
- It was a worthwhile sacrifices. With the tension and headache, i manage to go though it. Even if i didn't win it that day, I'm still happy with myself as i can still pull some strings and even surprised many of my students.
