The inter-faculty basketball tournament has been spurring up lots of excitement the past couple days, as the team representing IM has been regarded as one of the favorites even before entering the tourney.
The IM Basketball team currently features players from the upper cohorts; Chia Wei and Najib from Cohort 2, and Albert, Mike, Sky, Mohamed, Noh, and Jun representing Cohort 3.
Things got off to a slow start, with a loss to FBEPS I (48-43). The team used the loss to further discipline their game strategy and build a proper game plan.
Effort was no question, as there’s no doubt everyone put in 110% –especially with an amalgamation of anxiety and the desire to prove something substantial; that medical students DO in fact have a life and can school other people in sports, as well as a medical environment.
The second game helped to prove the latter, with a 63-28 victory over FBEPS II. The game was a showcase of great teamwork all around.
The stats of the game were so good they can't be listed on the internet. Either that or I don't have them readily available.
The IM basketball team is however suffering from a lack of support; as many players on the bench are trying their best to compensate for a lack of attendance from what should be, fellow classmates yelling and screaming in support for their beloved colleague-turned-athletes.
Come and join in on the fun and excitement! The IM Basketball team next plays against FASS on Friday, October 17 at 5PM.
We better see you there!

Judgment is the key to true leadership. A leader's most important role is making good judgment calls in three domains: key people, strategy and crisis. Great leaders have a high percentage of good judgment calls; they are only good if the execution is successful.
The second most important role is to develop other leaders who can make good judgment calls. Leaders are said to have a good judgment when they repeatedly make judgment calls that turn out well. And these calls often turn out well because they have mastered a complex process that unfolds in several in several dimensions.
Why do some organisations consistently win in the marketplace, while others struggle from crisis to crisis? The answer is LEADERSHIP. Winning organisations have good leaders who know how to make smart decisions and implement them quickly and they develop others to be leaders as well.

Hey! I know that searching for jobs online can be really painful, but I found a site that actually make the process not suck.
Ok, I admit it. I was going to keep HireBrunei Job Board to myself. I’m a selfish person, and I didn’t want you to apply for the same jobs that I’m applying for, but they bribed me with $5 Easi Credit Transfer if I post about them in my blog. It is the easiest way for me to get $5 easi credit ever. Hey, you can join up too, but make sure you enter before October 18th.
Don’t worry, they’re really cool and won’t spam you. You’ll just get a daily e-mail telling you about a really cool company and what kind of jobs the company offers. If you ever get sick of it or hopefully find the job of your dreams, unsubscribing is really easy.
If you’re looking for a job for after you graduate college, or need to find a new job, I highly recommend you HireBrunei.On behalf of the Institute of Medicine, I would like to wish all blog readers, colleagues, students and the muslimin and muslimah all around the world 'Selamat Hari Raya' and may our ibadah during the Holy month of Ramadhan will be accepted by Allah.
“Selamat Hari Raya Aidil Fitri, Maaf Zahir dan Batin”
