Time Flies

“What is my problem with time huh? If you see properly, most of my blog posts are about time”

It is just like a few days back to Penang, though the truth I have been back for almost 1 month.

Good time flies, it is really true.

My holidays in Penang started with a lecture delivered to the Unit 25 members. Personally, it is more as a catch up moment for me to be updated with the current news of the society I am be with since the past 5 years.

However, a few great time before this that happened before I came back.

As soon as I finished the Chemistry exam, me and many friends went for steamboat in Yuan.

Besides that, went to Mid Valley after a long time didn’t been there, with Ming Khai to buy presents, besides meeting Tiong and Poh Chai as soon as before we are going back.

Taken before going back in KTM. Can you see anything abnormal?

Before sending Ming Khai back, I remembered Zi Hong, Chang Hwa and me went for Bah Kut Teh and also to Jusco for a movie. Pretty much a simple outing, with Chang Hwa you just don’t expect extraordinary..as in that few lines just being repeated for many times without saturation, only exaggeration =P

Wee was staying with me for the past few days in my room, got to see his “marketing life” more and I enjoy reading a few books of his besides listening to his view points and ideas.

Thanking him for the Think Big Act Small book, I managed to add in as a co-idea during the lecture with members despite I just manage to cover 3 chapters of it only.

After the lecture, I attended the Leadership Training Camp and Inter Unit Competition trainings.

A strong feeling tell me to STOP and let the younger leaders to lead but just can’t resist from returning as a dumped retired old man.

STOP SIN HUI… STOOOOOOP

I am clueless whether I am so passionate (which I will not personally say so) or because rather just want to meet members which I really love seeing their adventure in this society.

In short, Kepoh (busybody), just let it be that simple la.

Help out in the VAD Youth Interaction.

Undeniably, it can be one of the most successful events HQ had ever held ever since I join RC.

They succeeded in terms of attendance, participation, preparation as well as activities we have together.

Can you see the SMILES =) despite them being under the rain and going through all this?

Despite of the heavy rain, when I asked whether we should continue, strong voices of YES can be heard from all members.

After that event, VAD 21 (a voluntary group of RC adult members) turns into a feast-colic.

Barbeque in Renee’s house, dinner at Pauline’s house and Christmas party at John Toh’s house.

Indeed it is an exciting experience, although it can be awkward to sit together with so many adults ( I am still a young man, if you had wonder).

Luckily, Win Sern, Jennifer, Eric, and Fong Xiang who always make my day by being part of the younger community, as they sometimes can turn the conversation into a big laughter.

Besides RC, it is nice to find old-kaki of the SPM and STPM fellows too.

haha for SPM macam 1 only, Esmond! Despite of his
busy schedule for adult development, he spend his time for IUC too.

Besides, got to meet Kenneth who also join me in VYI and Radin who plan to meet in IUC training too.

Zhen Fei went with me for the Chingay Parade, besides many joining the Seoul Garden barbeque to celebrate Eu Tiong’s birthday.

 Sau Fei: Everytime when Sin Hui is back sure steamboat one =)

Having fun bringing Eu Tiong on my bike to Zhen Fei house and spent few more hours seeing them playing PS II.

Clueless and helpless to find a way to join in, because I thought it just take extra-ordinary mind to comprehend that complicated process to play the game.

I am so lazy to think anymore, perhaps no more.

All in all, holidays can be fun but can be harmful too if spent too much on “decomposition and decaying activities”.

For me, so far so good!

Time

Ding dong ding dong…there goes another month..

Btw, I am having my Chemistry Test tomorrow, am I not? So, what on Earth am I doing here?

Well, this is definitely not procrastination. I have stared at that Chemistry book for nearly an hour and now it’s just a resting of eyes, literally =).

Haih…time flies..whether it will be a good thing to happen or not.

My sister and Juniors finish her PMR…freedom is really all there  for them now!

SPM is coming so soon..as well as STPM..All the best to those going through it..Hope you people are still standing and breathing right there..haha hopefully this heal you a bit.

The Juniors in INTEC will almost complete their 1 semester in INTEC. Don’t say if they felt it short, me too! I still can capture every single thing in my MMS and now, I can even start preparing my luggage to fly anytime next year after June. Hooray!!!

Oo…Dharma Talk has come to its end  for this year. I will never forget the first time I encounter the Shah Alam Buddhist Temple from the intention to conserve electricity by using stairs all the way to the hospitality shown by the helpers in the café, administrators, and definitely the Sunday school teachers.

I really miss those time helping out in Sunday school. At first, I felt so small and terrified as I am so new to Buddhism, what some more to teach the children which are even better than me. However, I just totally forgotten before remembered again that Buddhism is alive in every man’s soul as how we breathe in and out without realising. That gave me some courage to go. Indeed, diminishing the worries actually let me enjoy and experience more.

This reminded me a storyoften retold in Buddhism.

At one moment when Buddha was meeting his disciples, he lifted a flower above his head and showed it to his students. At that moment, all his disciples felt so tense amusing why Buddha did that. However, out of all, a disciple of Buddha just smiled so sincerely to Buddha. Buddha replied his smile. And Buddha said, “The benefit of this flower has been transmitted to this student of mine”. Many Buddhist followers were still wondering what the metaphor was laid behind this story.

 Thinking excessively will put our mind thinking more about the intention more than to enjoy the flower

In fact, the message said was that usually human minds often think too much thus missing many joy and bliss just right in front of him. The lacking in mindfulness has put them into their self-delusion that leads to suffering and disasters. Not thinking too much and just focus at the subject will keep us learn and discover more.

Sadhu Sadhu Sadhu!!

 What is meant by searching for happiness when happiness is just right there in front of our eyes? Its the matter of appreciation to what is already there for us

What a nice feeling after get to write here since my last writing for my IELTS.

Cheers people out there and always have fun in life.

New room home make my journey in INTEC more conducive =)

(The photos used are taken during Bobby’s birthday. If you (the Birthday Boy) ever come across this, thank you for showing us a little part of meaning about life, I would say. Sincerely hope you and all my friends will soon discover what is already there waiting for them.)

I have a Dream

In my recent usual days, I will try to rise early without whirling around my mind dreaming and staring blankly on the ceiling.

But, I wasn’t today.

Don’t know because I was too tired after the whole day in INTEC, but I got a weird dream that prolong my sleep.

It was the dream going back to the time when I have conflicts with a bunch of Seniors those days in Unit 25.

OMG! Why should I suddenly dreamt of all that?

Urrgh..just as soon as I got awake, my head was so pain and my whole body was shaking shivering cold, to be signs of fever.

Then, I just feel so fatigue and reckless, not knowing what to do and feel like not waking up yet.

Getting back to that past moments was indeed a bitter one.

Everything was so fine even after the taking over of our new positions in AGM, but I know it was fine because I was just impersonating a role of ‘yes-man ‘leader that permit them to do anything that they want

After realising, many members and Juniors were harmed, by being humiliated with unnecessary work and burden, that wasn’t belong to them, I started to stood by the Juniors and members side.

Things start to get rotten.

I was boycott. I was given a hard time to reach agreement with them in selecting leaders, AP commander, INTRA Chairman as well not having co-operation in Unit’s events, camps and activities.

Life was more peaceful and together in Junior-ship

Quarrels, arguments, gossiping were running furiously between both parties and 2 camps were set up- the Senior and Junior.

It’s really hard to be a leader-for-all, especially when you face people that are clueless about their responsibilities and pledge to their service.

This is because when you correct them, you ended up causing them to rebel on you.

Even until today, nearly almost after 2 years, we lose contact and not knowing each other progress.

It’s very sad, every time when I met them. Knowing the fact we have known each other since Form 1 but yet, we act as strangers among us. Isn’t Unit the place to keep everyone together?

Yes, I admit I had lost friends! But those days when I am obliged to choose friends and members, I have chosen the latter.

This is what and why I am selected for, not for my personal interest.

No regrets..no looking back..no sighs..as I have did it my way!!

So, if today if there is anyone who will ask me, “Then, comment on your success and failure that you have brought throughout a term of leadership”.

The reply will be let the history to judge me, let the 284 members of the year to evaluate, as I have did what I supposed to do.

I was said to be the softest leader members have ever encounter, am I not? Yet, many things behind that have seen more of my conviction to decision no matter what

But for my future days, I hope to join back this string together, when both sides are ready, as I always treasure this friendship as strong as before.

The challenge is just- where to start with.

Don't let the good times in Unit be harm and polluted by POWER

This reminded me of the disputes in the recent grassroots.

But, just felt it will be beyond of my purpose if I would comment on it. I hope they will be wise enough and think for the Unit interest- and not otherwise.

Alright, back to my normal mode. Brush teeth and get ready for school tomorrow.

It’s just nice catching back memorable times- either it is bitter or sweet

Lifely Life

Let me make a very typical start by for writers who don’t blog after some time…

Owhh..it has been some time I have not blogged. Well, things just keep popping up making life so hectic and busy, that I can’t find any more time to write. Anyway, a good return and it’s so glad that I am back here.

=)

Since the last post, life has been so different. To be exact, semester 3 in INTEC was really not a laughing matter, as more datelines of assignments, quizzes, test etc stacking abundantly on my working desk while outing and lepak-ing are facing a very serious extinction.

However, I am glad because going through this under compression life reminds me to be ever-conscious and ready for whatever challenges..and I know it wasn’t a cliché, as I realise the difference in me as compared to before.

Let me sketch some sharing on moments on Dharma Talk. Despite after a month since DOC, the momentum in me is still going strong..or even stronger! I don’t know what urging me to pursue more, but I felt I have found something every time I attended a Dharma Talk.

Not forgetting, that will be the time getting along with Juniors. Kind of disappointed, most of my AML10 friends don’t really join me for Dharma Talk, to sleep more, and not interested are some popular reasons given.

However, it is enlightening to mingle around Juniors. Firstly, felt younger, all are still very youthful and energetic. Haha, it sounded as if I am old, soft and weak. Just felt disturbed when some tends to be so serious (maybe because talking with a senior wor)..konon yea! All are really matured, not little that gain my respect for who they are.

Besides, after shifting to Cemara, time with friends are also lesser. What to do?? All are so far away. However, I can see our bonding and ties still remain as before, since we still meet in college and hang out whenever possible.

It really makes me appreciate the moments we have, when realised that many great buddies not going to fly together after our term ended in INTEC.

This mid-sem break I expect it to be the week I will have ample of rest besides getting ready for the new coming academic session. However, due to unforeseen circumstances undergo by Tiong (though, I doubt that), I ended up bringing Tiong, a roommate, around Penang and Kedah.

Despite of all the condemns and insult given by him on every place and food he tried, I take that as a room of…..revenge when I visit Sibu again. Anyway, hopefully he had have enough fun..to an extend that is just enough that will make him not coming again =P

Thanks to Ming Khai for sharing my burden, by allowing us to spend a few days in Kedah. You might think I am joking, but getting to visit Tun Mahathir’s house, Tunku memorial, and the Muzium Padi, are some wishes that has been just gracefully fulfilled in the trip, thanks again.

Too bad, no chance to hike the Gunung Jerai for a breathtaking scenery and Sungai Petani ice-blended dessert which I promised and will definitely keep a fonder memory about Kedah.

Woww..this is the most random post I have written with no organisation and proper subject. Let it be..let it be..Life is just so unexpected… Awaiting for tomorrow and make it better than today!!

Life

The ups and downs of life: instead of being happy …, we live a life in which we let our well-being be determined by too many external factors”

Going through my past 2 weeks was indeed an exhausted and unforgettable one.

Firstly, a few friends and roommates actually tried to make a birthday surprise for my super-belated birthday.

Their plan was rather predictable and super-tiring but I seriously understand that they must have taken a lot of troubles to make this plan work. Thanks Ming Khai and friends.

Seriously, by doing to others and know how difficult it is, will make you appreciate more when others do the same for you.

However, perhaps, the bonding and ties sometimes just push us to forget about the complications, but rather we find ways to simplify them.

Writing about this, seriously throw out my sad feelings more, as this remind me a lot of self-centred and ungrateful people around me. (Sorry for that, but that will be the best word).

Besides that, a turning point in life, or I will call it an era of enlightenment in life, will be to know about Buddhism more.

Went to the Dharma on Campus, enable me to solidify my understanding more about the way of life.

 

I had never know Buddhism was such beautiful and universal.

-Brothers and sisters in the camp-

-Dharma Talk-

Not to be exaggerating, but thought of me having such character, Taoism and Buddhism will fit me the best till the end of my life.

Life is going for a change, and this change is not for the sake of changing, but the time has come.

Bon Odori

Yay! I was in Bon Odori..

But, this time it is not in Penang, but in Shah Alam, Kompleks Sukan Negara.

It was on the same date with the one in Penang. Supposedly, I plan not to go, konon want to study.

After realising half a day is spent on nothing, might as well just have a look at the Bon Odori in Shah Alam.

p.s: if you don’t know, only Penang and Shah Alam has Bon Odori celebrarion in Malaysia

As soon as I step into the stadium, an imaginary table directing me to list the difference of Bon Odori celebration in Penang and in Shah Alam.

 

First of all, the people. Gosh! Penang have to really admit defeat. The people here I will say is 3 times more than what we have. I cant imagine if I am in a duty with so many people.

1% of the total people, unbelievable? Believe it =)

 -Kind of picnic while watching the performance-

Followed by, there have more appealing Japanese food, and I mean really Japanese food. You don’t see people selling apom malik or jagung rebus nearby. It was so much tasty and worth lining up to buy them. But, the price will perhaps burn a hole in your wallet.

 Japanese Ice Kacang (RM6)- Look nice but the taste was otherwise, maybe not suitable for me

Japanese food- cuttle fish, eel, sushi. This was all nice              (Don’t ask me their name in Japanese)

Then, seems like people in Penang very paiseh. I don’t see that many people dancing around the stage, pity those fellow dancers dancing alone up there! In Shah Alam, you see them hih-hah here and there and waving the fan high and low. I was part of them and the feeling was like reaching Japan already.

-Everyone was really high that night-

There is many more, like larger space to move around, they got other cultural dance, and super a lot Japanese people around etc.

 -Posing with the cultural performers-

Other than that, it’s the St. John being the crowd control. Seems like Red Crescent is discriminated anywhere so long got St John beside us –sigh-

I feel those who is a Bon Odori fan should see yourself the celebration in Shah Alam and do your evaluation.

Bravo Bon Odori!!

Unit 25 (2)

The worst thing to do is to do nothing.

Recently, I was notified that our Unit has emerged the 1^st Runner up for the District Parade. Congratulation, Unit!

They have started their trainings back few months, sacrificing their academic time, classes, tuitions, personal time, families etc etc just for this recognition.

 After a long period of training, they reach their destination, but their journey for the next shall continues

Yet, I realise behind that success there are also many who are devastated with disappointment and unhappiness overwhelming them.

I only have 3 thoughts to explain why they feel the losing (to get 1^st place) that way:

Firstly, they actually didn’t put their best in trainings and competitions (sometimes, unforeseen circumstances is a reason too)  and think they can do better if given the chance again.

Secondly, because of a few people who have not committed and that little few rotten members had actually ruined the day, so they ‘beh syok’him.

Thirdly, due to unjust and illogical judgement. They felt that they deserved to achieve more but just being discriminated (again).

If it’s the first reason, what else can be said? Unless, there is one leader willing to step forward and rectify this mistake. If leaders are still lying behind the old laurels and neglecting their duties, we will just remain blaming ourselves after competitions.

              Vs      

A boss tell us what to do, a leader shows that it can be done

For the second reason, why should this kind of members are in at the first place? Because of insufficient well-trained members? Then we know who should be held responsible.

 How we expect to make our members committed, when the leaders are not committed in their commitment to make them one.

For the 3^rd reason, I remember how I have expressed our emotions during my time. We actually punished ourselves for not championing the day by running around the competition base. This is to show we are gentlemen and brave enough to admit our defeat BUT our defeat lies right there because we are not bringing IT back with us. At last, proven! Our troop that had lost to X school proclaim our fame and honour while X school was no where near (or perhaps, didn’t even show up

Let others judge as a loser. Since what matters most is how we perceive our own.

However, it is a fact that when Unit don’t achieve well, it is committees that are accountable and answerable to this. This is because they are those with proper control and authority, while members are just under their directive.

I always sound provocative to committees and sided towards members (that usually appreciate that).

But, I realise mostly (my members) today are now committees. I wonder you all still appreciate it or acting like your past committees who thinks that once committee, lupakan member.

I don’t mind being hated, but so long my principle stand, Unit will never rule or succeed with the members as the back spine and they are always everything to Unit.

 Hopefully, we shall rise again and excel in marching though its role and objective in Red Crescent is still questionable.

It will be within your prerogative to order them, mould them, and prepare them for the next battle. Their failure is not anything that will mean your success, but you share the disgrace too.

All in all, what I am saying here is just for those who did their best, be proud and lift your head up high.

You have not turn down anyone of us, as we are very proud with anything you have been doing to make Unit a better place.

Admitting mistake is just adding problem, correcting mistake is the solution to the problem.

Be proud, no regrets, and courage enough to change.

Unit, Strong and Faithful

Another illegal piece depicting about my old history called Unit. Perhaps, saying things from far is the only way I express my unconditional affection to Unit.

Usaha Takwa Mulia

 

Wahai universiti-ku,

Sesungguhnya masa berjalan pantas,

Kerana mu bergerak bersama nadian anak-anakmu.

 

Wahai universiti ku,

Ketiku ku baru mengenali mu,

Diri ku terasa kecil di sisi mu.

 

Kini,

Seiring dengan masa,

mu semakin dekat dengan sanubari ku.

 

Wahai universiti-ku,

mu sudah menjadi sebahagian ku

kerana keikhlasan ku hanya ku yang memahaminya

Walaupun ketika mu melaungkan

‘Destinasi cita-cita negara dan bangsaku’

Tidak diertikan destinasi bangsa ku.

Namun, ketika ku melaungkan

‘Janji ku pada pertiwi untuk menabur bakti’

ku tahu itulah janji ku pada mu di suatu masa ku berjaya

Kerana budi dan kasih mu berikan

ku tidak akan lupa daratan

 

ku doakan anak-anak mu

yang datang dengan harapan

sudahpun pulang dengan kejayaan

kami yang baru datang dengan keazaman

diberi dengan keyakinan dan tidak lupa akan

Usaha Taqwa Mulia.

 

Reaching an End for a new Beginning

Now, when I am counting my days, I realise all my remaining days count…

2 more days to go..Ooo dear!

I cannot believe that the so called longest holiday is going to end soon.

No regrets neither looking back, as I have done what I am supposed to do.

Friends and family, Issue Report, RC and music are all what I catch up for the past 1 month.

I did it.

I will miss the time again meeting friends, though I am tired answering the question “What are you doing now”, or “When you are flying” .

I will miss RC members, though realising more ‘X’ behind me.

I will miss celebrating my birthday together with family, maybe I won’t have that anymore for the next 5 years.. or even more than that.. I have felt that last year. Sorrow but learn to be stronger.

Behind all this, I find myself again, reflecting the past to see if I had deviated elsewhere and getting back to the right path.

Perhaps, creating Facebook at the last minute is also a strategic move, not to waste my time from the very beginning itself.

Now, what will be my goals for the next semester?

Leave it to me, it’s meant to be done more than to be said.

Celebration of Tao

Now, it’s the time to gather again!

People used to think Taoism is a religion (or actually a belief) that is filled mostly with magic, where you can see people flying, jumping, and hitting themselves with swords or needles.

For those who belief it, called that medium or ‘tang ki’ when God transcend into human form. For those not, maybe they assume it’s a kind of devil possession.

Anything you would like to perceive doesn’t matter.

However, what is interesting, Taoism has always been the instrument to hold my family together or even until to my extended family members.

Saying upon that, I am thankful to my grandfather as he is not only passing down a belief to his generation, but even setting a rice bowl for most of his generation today.

His setting up of a Taoim Centre, called 金真坛 has assured us a place to reflect upon his legacy, history, and his own story of Tao.

Last Sunday at 26^th June, the Centre celebrated the Heavenly Deity Zhang Tian Shi.

However, what that make the celebration significant was mostly all my relatives came together and meet up.

You can hear laughter and noises people catching up since we had a mass meeting since the last Chinese New Year.

But, it’s also sad and sorrow in me to realise there are some who had departed and leave forever, to not join us as years before.

However, this is the cycle of life. The newer and younger generations coming up and the current generation will be moving on.

I don’t know how long more I got this chance to celebrate this event again, as I am going to study further sooner.

However, let this continue to be a tradition and may the Tao remain eternal.

 

T.E.A.C.H.E.R.S.

After finished duty in St. Xavier’s Institution, I drop by Popular near KOMTAR, to get a new stamp album.

The duty was so boring. Luckily got some other VAD members there, so we chatted from 8.30am until 4.30pm =.=”.

While paying for the stamp album, my eyes were caught by a particular greyish-white hair gentleman hanging on his usual shoulder-sling bag.

He caught my attention as he seems to be familiar, somewhere seen him before.

I remembered.

He is Mr Cheng Hin, a very dedicated ex-teacher.

I wanted to greet him, but that ‘effective’ cashier just take so long to take my money.

When I went back, he disappeared already. So, I walked around to see if he is still somewhere around but he wasn’t, so I leave.

He was a teacher in Sungai Petani, Kedah last time teaching students English in the ‘pondok’ (means an isolated Malay school in the village) and he is once a Frees too.

So, after his retirement, nearly 50 years after he had leave school, he actually didn’t forget to return his part to the school.

Mr Ghafoor and wife, Madam Vivian, Mr Phang and Mr Cheng Hin (all Old Frees) organised a workshop on techniques to improve interview skills.

Most of us thought we are going to learn anything like body language, attire to wear, documenting and whatsoever related to interviews like other typical interviews workshop.

Mr Ghafoor, the man, is delivering his lecture while Mr Cheng Hin looking at.

However, what we expected and what was given are totally different.

Mr Ghafoor, a Human Resource and experienced interviewer to many organisations taught us on the right values and right mindset in preparing for any kinds of interview rather than solely scholarship interviews.

I still remembered his few lessons regarding to organisational development, job description, know-hows, preparing resume and do’s and don’ts in interviews.

Honestly, the 5 days course turns my life to see things in different perspective, exampling the outspoken Mr Ghafoor with his inspiring and motivating speeches.

There are lots to say about the course, but I shall remember mostly about what Mr Cheng Hin and Mr Phang had done.

Imagine, Mr Cheng Hin and Mr Phang are both in their 70s and 60s respectively, why are they bothered to held this course burdening themselves carrying the food, preparing the breakfast, lunch and tea throughout the course (if I had forgotten to say that it’s free also).

However, let’s put aside about the $$$, they don’t care it anyway.

They dress very simply and neatly, they spoke humbly treating us as their children and they seem to be working very happily.

On the last day, they thank us for attending and making their days meaningful for the last 5 days.

The right most in white t-shirt is Mr Cheng Hin while the left most in blue is Mr Phang with Mdm. Vivian (in pink tudung) and Mr Ghafoor (in yellow) beside

Mr Phang is the toughest man among them, but he dropped tears when he was giving his last words before the course reached its end.

I can’t control myself too, as I really felt how much their love and sacrifices they make for us.

They are just not teachers, but a loving and compassionate knowledge giver.

I know the knowledge we gain that day was not only on interview skills, but sharing and caring each other.

Some of the new great friends I know from the course

They have influenced my mind to pledge to be a better doctor and remember doctors are just not about curing, healing and treating patients physically but surely mean more than that.

I remembered a very motivating friend from INTEC, Xavier once said:

“Teaching is not a career, it’s a calling”.

He is inspired to teach Chemistry subject in future and surely a respectable Dr in Chemistry one day too.

Yes, I think that is true as how Mr Cheng Hin and Mr Phang had put the real definition of teaching profession into action.

This meeting with Mr Cheng Hin actually remind and retell me the story of these dedicated and loving teachers that will forever be devoted in shaping better students for better tomorrow.

I will always remember you all, teachers.

Annual T******** Camp 2010

Back few weeks ago, I drop by

After correction…

Back few weeks ago, I was like a participant in ATC, staying overnight in school and see how ATC this year was.

As usual, making that sudden visit which I hope didn’t cause much unhappiness to the seniors, we apologised.

Welcoming indirectly by the people running here and there, whistling blowing twice (symbolically meaning ‘switch station’ if it still hasn’t change), Treasure Hunt is going on.

I started to know names of new members, and forgetting them at the same time as all names sounded the same!!

The Head Section Leader, Jonathan (I am sure I spelled correctly after spelled wrongly so many times =P), followed me (or I followed him, FINE!) walking here and there.

I started to be talking…oo NO its blabbering..bla bla..10 years ago, 5 years ago, 3 years ago, 1 year ago, a few days ago…..and then I ask ‘Where you want to go now? ‘after realising I have been sitting down speaking for a couple of hours.

Truthfully, I don’t talk that much with Kenneth (the HSL before Jonathan), perhaps he knows almost all what I am going to say.

 

-That’s the Secretary (a member back then) sleeping in ATC 2006..

What is the black figure doing under his leg, I don’t know)-

So, I started annoyed some of them, Esmond (the Secretary particularly).

Inside my heart, I was thinking, perhaps it’s time me treating them as my friends. Many people in Unit 25 have not many friends, either because of politic backstabbing, showing off power, or so called tradition.

I have not many friends in Unit 25 too, and I really mean friends. For not many reasons, for duty sake, to be fair lorh… if not people tends to called you favourism la, nepotism la…and I just hate people zmming me…so I acting not like friends..konon..still kena ‘isssmmm’ by people…haha and for that I lose many friends in Unit 25, merely still my members…

The best thing I had was knowing the new members. And again I see light through the dark tunnel. Many are potential, in front of  me(behind, I don’t know!) I pray for the best  for them and succeed so Unit 25 will shine again..Hoorayy!!! but wait. What AGAIN??..what you mean? So now not shine?...I don’t know, you decide.

             -My Group in ATC 2006, from memories to history-

Well, my time is over. So, I tried to write as casual as possible. If too serious, kena banned later. Or what I said ended up in the committee meeting agenda to stop me coming and then bising bising in the cyber world. In fact, I only wrote 2 post about Unit 25 in my blog. In real, I can write a script longer than Sejarah Melayu and surely more interesting I will potray it than Tun Sri Lanang..ops Sejarah! But but, what for??? Let them rule, we see.. Let them fall, we flee

The current HSL 09-10 with the then DHSL and Treasurer year 07-08 with the then Treasurer and Section Leader 08-09..

Who ever know its them to lead when they are just member back then?

Same goes to this picture… There are Great Leaders waiting to be nurtured and lead Unit 25 to success…

 

Strong and Faithful.

Sibu, land of Hornbill

At last, I manage to make that little time to recap the good times in Sibu, the land off 1Malaysia, for the peace and varied ethnic group living with peace and understanding.

4 days 3 nights trip, participated by 3 friends from Peninsular, with another 1 originated from that blissful land, welcomed by the parents, relatives and all friends there, how thankful we are, that just can’t be said by putting them into words.

               

 

We had went to many places especially the astoundingly erected temples, busy “largest” pasar malam,and..and..and.. Central market la, Song market la and Kuching market la (many markets there).

               

The best spot you can find in the Pasar Malam

We have walked along that hills and lakes, setting our way through by walking under the killing unmerciful hot Sun, visiting museums, galleries and exhibition centre until I can speak Sibu history more than the Historian now.

              

Heritage walk + Sunburn

We have tried out all the great food that is endemic and only found in Sibu, causing us to totally forget the word hungry in our mind but just over-full.

              

The Kong Piah, one of the many many good food

We have the great time touring here and there, cheers, laughter, fun although some people was really annoyed by my sarcastic remark, no hard feelings, all was said to trigger for the activation hormone to bring us to more places.

             

Tiong ‘tried’ to smile despite he was tired guiding us througout the tour

Lastly, even the last person in the world still doesn’t believe me, yet I will still say it, I am seriously falling in love with the Sibu sky. My deep affection to its blue (that is so different in Peninsular) decorated by the white snowy clouds that deserve all eyes to just stop blinking and stare at them for a while.

            

I will not mention about Kuching,  Sibu has make up an impressive view for the great Land of Hornbill…

Before this ended, I shall make this crystal clear, Tiong wanted so much to put either Sibu or Penang is better.

I just thought otherwise, these 2 places are just unique at their own way. How can I compare an apple with an orange?

If that comparison was ever make by me, with no intention, I just hope that Tiong will have that competition spirit to make Sibu a great time, as he had make it, or more than that.

No winners, but MEMORABLE TIME…

Bye Sibu…
