Syukur Alhamdulillah, the BBSS Easter BBQ event was a success (as usual coz we're awesome!). I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the organisers for their hard work as well as the past BBSS committee (08/09)!
The event started at about 3pm. We had games to fill in the day which includes creating your own lyrics to a familiar song e.g. don't cha by Pussycat Dolls, tying a balloon on your ankle and you have to step on your opponents', blind pentagon and the list goes on. The most interesting rule in this game was we were allowed to steal easter eggs won by other teams during the game. The Bibers were divided into 3 groups (8-7-7) where Group 1 had collected the most easter eggs and won the game! Congratulations to the ‘Kicap’ team. Group 3 was the 1st runner up- yes, they played by the 'rules'. And, Group 2 was the 2nd runner up. Congratulations to all!

Hello everyone,
Just delivering some information here. This goes out to all UoB students. Recently, I met an International Officer from UoB who is interested to find out more on Bruneian students studying in the University of Birmingham. She wants to know if students will be interested in doing a student profile for the university.
Below are further information on the student profile and her contact details.
In terms of a student profile this is normally when we ask you a set of questions and then we use your replies in a short write up about your experience at the University of Birmingham. We put this on our website or in our postgraduate brochures. So we only do this if you have agreed and signed a permission form for us to use this information.
We also like to put a photo of you next to your profile so we can put this on the website. If you prefer you can send us a photo or we can arrange for you to have it taken.
If you would like to do this or if any of your friends would please let me know and we can arrange this soon.
