Malaysian Food Feast (MFF) 2012

Editor’s note: There is a lack of saliva-inducing in-your-face close-up shots of the Malaysian food here because CUMaS tries to prevent Malaysian students from feeling homesick as much as possible. That, and also because everyone was too busy devouring the food to even bother taking photos of them 😉 The Malaysian Food Feast, our flagship …

CUMaSKini 17/12/12: CUMaS Hoodies Deadline Approaching!, Ichiro Christmas Buffet Lunch

Twas the week before Christmas, when all through Cambridge
Not a student was stirring, safe in their college.
Their hoodies were old, full of dust and dirt,
When CUMaS made hoodies to cover their shirt.

Please order quite soon, the deadline is near,
Oh, Ichiro buffet lunch, is that what I hear?
And us here at CUMaS, say to you with delight,
"Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night!"
