DWC Bazaar 2009 .. What is special about??

I have been in Dubai Women's College now for 3 years and this is my 4th year.It is well known that there is an annual and special event for DWC students and people outside the college which is the DWC Annual Bazaar. In my first Bazaar I raised funds to one of local organizations (Noor) that help disabled children. 


The second year Bazaar I worked as an employee in HD2 students' mini business. In the third year of my college life me and my group Shaima, Shirin, Shaikha and Sara we started our own mini business and we supervised HD1 students and I acted as a Marketing Manager.


This year, the 4th year, in the college me as a Finance student worked in the Bazaar main bank in the Treasury. The Treasury team was originally compromised of Shaima, me, Maitha H. and Sara A. But during the pressure time, other people were helping us continuously I can't mention their names because I'm afraid that I miss someone. 


The work in the main bank in the Treasury was sooooooo exciting ^_^
I think we all enjoyed working in the bank and enjoyed supervising the other 5 banks also. We started our work from 8 am until 10 pm during the 3 days of the Bazaar. We were in charge to open and close balances for the students in other banks.


The process of buying and selling the Dirhams and the Dhows, the college currency, was so simple and easy going. Our bank in the last day was only responsible for buying back the Dhows from people. 


All in all, although it was little bit tiring, I was really enjoying my time. Our efforts didn't go worthlessly, our team received an achievement award from Mr. Philp here is the statement: 

"Special Achievement Award have gone to Saleha for working 13 hours each day for THREE days in the TREASURY Dept & The Head Office of the Bazaar Bank from 8th to 10th December 2009. 

This is probably the most important 'Achievement Award' a 'Financial Services Student' can be awarded because it is the first time in 13 years that any student has been given such a prestigious award."

Dr Howard will be asked to make this award to Saleha for her dedication and loyalty and for demonstrating exceptional 'Management' and 'Business' skills with infinite energy and tremendous enthusiasm far beyond the call of normal duty. 

Words cannot describe how proud I am of Saleha and the impact she has made on me as I add her name to the FSRV Bazaar Bank's 13 year old "Roll of Honor".

Thank you my team, Mr. Philip, Dr. Reed and all my classmates :) 

yeeeeeeeeeeeh!!
