Last Thursday (29 Dec), I was invited to Medtech Farewell Dinner at UTP Executive Lounge. This event was held to celebrate the ex-Medtechians who will be graduating soon. I went there with Adib, Nash, and Syazwan.

Media & Technology Club (Medtech) is one of the most influential clubs in Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS. You can read more about Medtech on their official website.

I joined the club as a committee for two sessions; 2008/2009 session as a member of Creative Multimedia Department and in 2009/2010 session as a member of Public Relation Department (now known as Corporate Communication Department).

Today, I managed to join the very first UTP CampusCamp which was held at building 01-02-04 Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS. There were 15 attendees joined the event and some of us did sharing on things like Fedora, Gnome 3, Linux, Android, how to be a good event planner (LOL), car, working experience in UTP, and many more.

My session at UTP CampusCamp was to give a demonstration on how to work with CodeIgniter framework. But somehow my laptop could not connect with the projector. So, I borrowed Amirul’s notebook, just change my topic on the fly and present my final year project (fyp), Malaysia Halal Maps. *Thanks to AmirulAbu*

Pictures of the day!
