BruSheff hosted a charity Raya Celebration at Pusat KACA, Kg. Kiulap, on the 10th September 2011, to raise awareness among members, of children with special needs. Alhamdulillah the charity Raya Celebration event with KACA was a great success. Due to a small mistake, we had to do this event in collaboration with Sekolah Perdagangan . Nevertheless, it turns out to be an awesome accidental joint-event! Kudos to the Event Organisers, Dk Za'imah Aqilah Pg Samsulbahri and Siti Nurazimah Haji Hashim . Without their effort and dedication, this wouldn't have happen.

Salam and hello everyone, Hope you're all ready for the upcoming exams! On behalf of Brusheff, I would like to wish everyone the best of luck. For Muslim students, you may find the Doa below useful: ~~~Doa untuk Mengulangkaji Pelajaran~~~ - Doa Memulakan Ulangkaji اَللَّهُمَّ إِنِّيْ أَسْأَلُكَ فَهْمَ النَّبِيِّيْنَ وَحِفْظَ الْمُرْسَلِيْنَ وَالْمَلاَئِكَةِ الْمُقَرَّبِيْنَ. اَللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْ لِسَانِيْ عَامِرًا بِذِكْرِكَ وَقَلْبِيْ مَلِيْئًا بِخَشْيَتِكَ، إِنَّكَ عَلَى مَا تَشَاءُ قَدِيْرٌ. Maksudnya: “Ya Allah! Aku memohon daripadaMu kefahaman para nabi, ingatan para rasul dan malaikat terhampir. Ya Allah! Jadikanlah lidahku basah dengan zikir kepadaMu, hatiku dipenuhi dengan takut kepadaMu. Sesungguhnya Engkau maha berkuasa di atas segala apa yang Engkau kehendaki.” - Doa Selepas Mengulangkaji اَللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْتَوْدِعُكَ مَا قَرَأْتُ وَمَا فَهِمْتُ وَمَا حَفِظْتُ فَرُدَّهُ إِلَيَّ عِنْدَ حَاجَتِيْ إِلَيْهِ، إِنَّكَ عَلىَ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيْرٌ.

BruSheff society members, As most of you are aware, His Majesty the Sultan is coming to London on the 1st of May. Unfortunately for us, this clashes with our proposed date for the Annual General Meeting and BBQ. Since the majority of us will go down the London on that day, it has been suggested that we push the date of the Annual General Meeting to the next suitable date for everyone. Please spend a few minutes (less actually) to answer the poll. It is located on the lefthand sidebar. You have till Monday. Thank you very much. Affy Rahman

Aisah Razali is currently a first year undergraduate doing BEng Biomedical Engineering at the University of Sheffield. This is her account of World Week 2011: Today was such a fantastic day! I had tremendous amount of fun meeting people and introducing Brunei and her beautiful culture. I was pleasantly surprised that a vast majority of the students who visited knew about Brunei and were very enthusiastic in learning more about our country. We jumped at the chance to display our beautiful, elegant traditional costumes and let them have a feel of our rich customs by giving them a makeover - the Bruneian style . The mingling of societies of our neighboring countries resulted in an exuberant atmosphere filled with laughter which will be embedded in my fond memories of World Week 2011.

The South-east Asian day of the world week went very well yesterday. The committee members would like to thank everyone who came yesterday and prepared for the event. We would like to relay our gratitude for: those who was able to spare some time early morning yesterday to set-up the booth. all of the wonderful suggestions, ideas, activities, comments and videos posted on the event page. for those who helped in the preparation and materialization of the ideas last Tuesday night. those who donated the Bruneian Dollars and I-Tunes Cards. to those who brought their friends to our booth. everyone who entertained the other students. Basically to ALL of our members for sparing the time to be at the Union. Towards the end of the day, I remembered talking to Aidil and his friends. "So basically every Bruneian knows every Bruneian in the University?", they asked. As I turned around the booth and saw how lively we are being at the booth, I realized how much each and everyone of us had
