CINCINNATI INNOVATES

Tahukan anda apekah CINCINNATI INNNOVATES?

adakah beliau sejenis binatang?

atau mungkin sejenis tumbuhan laut?

sebuah kenderaan atau ciptaan manusia yang lain????

salah.... salah...

semuanya yang salah

Actually CINCINNATI INNOVATES adalah sebuah pertandingan inovasi

yang dilakukan secara online

yang mana aku telah mendaftarkan penyertaan dan turut menyertai pertandingan tersebut.

maser awal2 pertandingan memang penuh semangat waj la

hari2 aku mengundi produk aku di webpage tersebut...

tapi lama-kelamaan dah fed up n langsung tak peduli...

dah malas nak pk pasal menang.

sow, aperpon Raya lepas,

aku mendapat jemputan ke

National Underground Railroad Freedom Center in downtown Cincinnati, New Kentucky, Amerika Syarikat

pada 22 SEPTEMBER LEPAS, PUKUL 6 p.m

sempena malam dinner dan award majlis u..

sow exsited coz bukan senang nak dapat invitation dinner cam tu

apertah lagi dinner kat OVERSEA...

KOWRANG MAMPU????
~:)~

aperpon, aku tak mampu la untuk nak pergi...

almaklum lah...

10K for ticket nak pergi n the other RM10k untuk tiket balik...

pergi ke sana bermakna menghabiskan more than RM20K

dalam masa yg tak sampai 5 jam...

so adakah itu berbaloi pada diri aku seorang gadis anak kampung ini???

jadi, aku memutuskan untuk tidak pergi.

orang kata kalo ader rezeki,

takkan kemana........

tp bodohnyer aku...

my friend said,

aku sebenarnyer leh mintak sponser from kerajaan MALAYSIA

or badan2 tertentu untuk kesana

coz aku kan terlibat dalam suatu upacara yg mengharumkan

negara...

aperpon,

benda dah lepas n aku dah terlepas dinner tu pon...

anyway,

from pic emaid-ed by my online friend,

mmg gembak la dinner tu..

upacara formal tapi dibuat dalam upacara yg penuh

rock and funcky chicks...

wah....

kat MALAYSIA ader ke???

VIP2 MALAYSIA mau ke layan theme cam ni??

itulah negara orang.....

open minded but dalam masa yg sama still kekalkan culture diorang.

MALAYSIA???

ops,,, sorry..

actually i tak minat nak cakap pasal budaya Malaysia

n banding2kan Malaysia dgn negara orang......

FOCUS utama adalah pasal

CINCINNATI INNOVATES...
