Don't judge the book by its cover...

They said it's a brain-washed camp, but I found it just stated the government's position, even the Constitution. It judged the position of non-Malays in its own way. You might not agree with it, but still, you must respect it...

I enjoyed it another way. i enjoyed 5 meals (even 6) per day. I enjoyed ice-breaking activities and even the closing ceremony. I even enjoyed how they managed the module of our courses, made it not obvious to strike the core purpose - to trust and support your own country without second thought. It's killing me in terms of not letting me sleep enough, other than that, it's the best camp I ever had for this year after BIG and BSMM camp that made me starved till near-death....

We are proud to be Malaysians! I hope everyone will, and our children will too!

Exam... exam...

Exam's just around the corner, and I'm back to old dilemma again, I don't want to study!! But still, I will study, only I have to conquer my devil in my heart first... haha...

My D-day, 3-5 November.

Holiday! Yay! ( 7 weeks of summary)

Holiday... this has been on my mind since the first week of my Praktikum (training in teaching). I started off on 30 June. Everyday since was a nightmare. Not enough sleep everyday. Writing 'creative' and 'innovative' daily lesson plan everyday... (I could not make it most of the time for that 'creative' part...) Doing and making ABM (for teaching aids actually, from traditional flash card to modern powerpoint and voice recording...) These activities had became my life since that day. I could not wait for holiday since then too... haha... Luckily, I'd made it through for 7 weeks, now the remaining 5 weeks are not a bright future though, every week then there will be lecturer or my mentor in school coming to my class observing me teaching... T_T I want to graduate the sooner the greater!!

After four months plus...

After four months in college, I started to appreaciate that time flies. If not, I can't figure out how I survived through these days. Haha. Kind of weak for me to endure those kind of phisical activity, so I always hope for rain during the PE session and Co-curricular activities... Not a good student, huh?? Hope I won't meet such in future...

Anyway, I'm glad that I never give up, and lucky to have supportive classmates that watched each other backs. Hope we stay on this spirit!

Next semester, we will keep it up!

B.I.G. Camp

OK, B.I.G. was my nightmare, but once I’d been, surprisingly, I enjoy it!

B.I.G. stands for Bina Insan Guru, some sort of outbound camp, used to be very dangerous and ‘Survivor’ type for those my seniors, but they modified it, ‘cause ‘something’ happened. Now, no more flying fox, no more sitting in the middle of the jungle in the midnight with only some ‘sulfur’ surrounding you.

First day, we were sent to the camp site by BUS (I thought we need to walk) to Tg. Sedili, somewhere near Kota Tinggi, Johor. Then, we set up our camp. The funniest part was one lecturer asked us to nail our camp, another said don’t. Later, we didn’t nail our camp, the lecturer who said ‘must’ came around, then scolded us. So, life in college, being scolded and ‘Smile’. Plus, every meal since we arrived at the campsite was cooked by everyone of us, in turns. But three groups of Majoring Mandarin plus one group of Majoring English had good cooks among us! The 4 days 3 nights there, I ate the best meal ever since I entered this college (that mamak stall outside our campus sometimes got ‘weird’ cooking).
2nd day, water activities. Quite fun, though. Without those ‘breath-taking’ part that was told by our seniors, haha. The tutor who taught us was a good lady tutor. She never shouted. Thus, half of us who scare of water could learn to float and swim the ‘dog’ style at the end. At the end of the day, we almost floated away by tides… luckily we had the strength to hold tight on the string and the help of others to keep on moral supporting us. The last activity was to cross the river mouth which was quite deep guiding by string and life jacket. Lastly, they even pulled back the string to help our last three teammates.
3rd day, jungle trekking. I thought it would be tough, considering Pahang has thick forests and I’d been to one of them! But the route was easy, compare to my previous experience. Less walking upwards, but walking on flat ground. The trickiest part was to carry one of our teammates as patient, walking through tunnels, (quite small) and carried a distance. Luckily we chose the lightest. Later, cooking by the seaside, tutors said no to matches and lighter, but we ‘curi-curi’ bring those, and also old newspaper too… so that we didn’t have to go and find firewood. The cooking was nice and creative, (thanks to our team leader, Kak Ashah) but all added with sand…
4th day which also the last day, my lips swollen because of allergy, I guess. The camp commander brought 11 of us to the nearby clinic, no doctor there, so the nurse gave me some Bonjela… after 3 days… my lips back to normal. But that day, I’ve Angelina Jolie’s lips, and the worst past was I used that swollen lips to sing on rehearsal and the real convocation day the following two days… (ya, my life sucks…)
After the camp, we still need to sing for choir the following two days, then even need to attend classes on Friday. Saturday and Sunday were another two days for other activities. So, I’m totally wear off till the end of March… Quite a memory though.

LIfe....

No tv...
No online for four days more... (now only can access... super slow though)
No food... (very limited by time, or I should say control by the sun?)
No casual wear (especially jeans... in all kinds! also no jeans when you are out of campus)

Everyday class 7.30 to 4.30pm, two days till 7pm.
Everyday homework, assignments, tests...
Bina Insan Guru camp is just around the corner...

Oh... Holiday! I'm looking forward to enjoy you!

PS: no radio for me also... like living in ancient caves... no news to read even major press...

After 14 days of training college...

First week, orientation week for the new batch of trainee teachers. Full schedule, woke up early morning to do exercise... rush from hostel to every venue... Lectures... Talks... non-stop. Then, nightmares began after orientation week.

As for orientation week, each meal provided, including refreshment after the morning and afternoon talks. But after orientation week, the kafe closes at 7pm every weekday, weekend, at 4pm. So, where is my dinner then??

First day, we didn't know. So, rushed to the kafe to find out that the door was closed. Ok, we walked 10 minutes to the main gate, handed out our temporary passes, only we walked outside the school to eat at mamak stall for dinner.

From that day on, dinner = walk 10 minutes to front gate, and then walk a distance more to eat at mamak stall, then walk back again to the hostel. Later only we found out that the kafe in other blocks are up doing business, only the kafe in our block close early. So, what to do, walk to get dinner or eat maggie in your own room are the only two options left. Haha!

PS: This is sure going to make me slim... USM is better in the sense of providing me food... T_T

New year resolution

This year's resolution would be: to be alive in the end of the year!

I'm going to attend KPLI (Kursus Perguruan Lepasan Ijazah)on 14 Jan. From what I heard from senior, there would be a 'bina semangat' camp, sure got kayak in the middle of the ocean, and once there's someone who washed away by the big waves. So, my resolution: to be alive!

Another fear factors of mine: sports. I mean I like sports, but not me playing sports! So, sure die on this category too. So, my resolution again: to be alive!

If you want to see me, please attend any CNY gathering or for as long as you can on MSN or WIndows Messenger. I surely need the bless from all of you! Please pray that I will survive!
