Homestay @ felda pasoh 4, jerebu
This is my first new home stay experience at a malay family. A place similar to my childhood kampung site. i really appreciate what they have done, and what they have gave me. They accepted me, a non-muslim to be their daughter. I'll remember everyone of them in my heart forever. Sweet mak jamilah, pak samsudin, kak ila, abg aziz, their children faizah, kak ngah...and many others. By spending time wiv my other frens too, we do dikir barat, visiting pasoh 4, friendly matches and games, gotong-royong... after all,it is enjoyable. I'll say i had a great fourdays memories here. Miss the moments...
Penyu Menangis
This is a team building programme when i joined the kem PEKASA 2008.
It start at mid-night, with participants given "clues" to collect other clues in other checkpoint until the task finish. It is some kind of mental and physical challenge where the participants have to stay awake for the whole night and storming their brains to solve the clues. They said this is the time where we can test the personality and characteristic of a participant, whether he or she is easily give-up type or going-on type.
Some parts occur where the participants was being scolded and slapped when they show minimum commitment and weak leadership, disappointment rose when no one dare to defend until they are ready to continue the challenge. i had the same feeling of touched when they finally solve the clues as a team. The moment they sang the song and hold high the flag,we can feel the tears of joy and proud.

A Grateful Day
I never tried to write any post in English before this.
Today is a very special day where i really feel like writing down some comments to myself. The easier way is to leave a post in a blog. But the computer do not enable the display of Chinese character, hence i cannot post on my regular space. And thus i immediately try this out.
It is mentioned that today is a special day. why? Because it is the birthday of a special person that walk in to my life not long ago. If you ask me my feeling towards this special person, i can hardly tell because he is old enough to be my father, like a father but as well as a mentor and friend. Normally, only the people close to my heart can get my homemade cards, and i did it for him. Maybe not as good quality as the cards being sold in the market, it is my sincere appreciation. A little disappointed when he did not keep the card after reading and did not bring it home with him. However, he and his sister has invited me to join their life. It is surprising because i never thought of that. Really thank them for giving me this opportunity. I appreciate it deep from my heart. I may not be a person who can express myself very well, depending with who, but i am trying.
Being the whole semester spend with him, i do gain something. I cant explain it in words form, it is kind of mindset- expanding and i gain fulfillment while listening to their talks and ideas. i seldom comment, i enjoy listening, i do thinking and hopefully i become more knowledgeable. if given a choice, i will choose to stay.
Wish everyone enjoy the day and be happy.
