ENDS of war!!!

ENDS!!!

Haha!!! I felt so release and pleasure after all of this. I have promised myself to be active this semester. So, Florence asked me to join helper in MPP(majlis perwakilan pelajar). Previously, I have totally no idea what is this and what am I going to do. During the first meeting, See told us some of the things, but I was still blurred. He said we need to help them to paint the banner, and give support during the campaign. Its sound so interesting to me. So I just join. After that, I heard some friends said, must be alert when joining this kind of activities. I was scared and almost wanted to quit. Thus, I asked them what actually all of this, and they started to explain more details to me. Yea!!! He talked a lot and I was still confusing though. While, I know the purpose of this team is helps Chinese actually, so I decided to have my commitment to this.

After that, several meetings (I absent sometimes, LAZY!!!) were held and we started the banner painting. We also helped to recruit our friends, but actually we failed to convince them. By the ends, there are just few of us and the mantan MPP + some seniors remained.

The actual fighting days were last few days. The few Sat before just 'warming up', haha!!!

Last few days were the most tired days. I don't know there were just how many hours we actually slept. What I know is the whole weeks was really, how to said, TIRED. And luckily this week is management week, all classes were cancel. So we can really have our full commitment to jentera team.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Monday – Penamaan calon. Accounting society have organized a career talk (compulsory to all accounting students, *hates*). I kept complaining to xbai. K!!! you must hate me so much on this. Paise la!! If you still bei song then you scold me back lo. The career talk, yes! So sad to say I learnt nothing actually. I just went there to sleep. BORED and LAME!!! But I think maybe is my own problem la… == Not acc society problem, is my fault to sleep right? Yea!!!

5pm,

DRUM ROLLS….

WAR STARTs!!!! And JENTERA team started FIGHT

Guys went to hang up the banner and girls accompanied Teng (mass com candidates) distribute flyers to every hostel.

12am, we were told we can back! Walao… unexpectedly, the first thing came in minds "so nice hor, can sleep so early. SEE said we will definitely fight whole days and night, but not really so nice'' "hopefully, will not have phone call suddenly la". Manatau, haven't reached my room, *phone vibrate*

EMERGENCY CALL – "layc, prepare! Go centre! KokLeong fetch us". Walao!!!

So, what came next? Prepared the flyers for whole night, till 5/6am…. (luckily just have 1class at 2pm, so I woke up at 1pm)

~~Roommate's friend told she: " y ur roommate always do helper?" sigh =='''~~ I do actually wonders is it worth to do all of this? ………

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

TUESDAY – 2pm -4pm class, 5pm (suppose have basketball training, but cancel, bcz RAIN!!1)

Just join the team and we ronda around our campus… haha!!! Then, we walked out to café and distributed to others students…

1 chinese girl said :" I didn't vote" "why" "this is not compulsory, and this is non of my business"

Walao… By the time, I really wanted to ''ki siao'' if everyone think like this, all our effort is wasted. This is what stick in the minds of most Chinese students. This have caused us lost so many votes… Damn!!!

We can do nothings… just say something like your vote is really important and mean a lot to the candidates. @$%$^@! I don't think she bother what I said. Then we ronda around hostel… distributes to the vehicles parking around.. Yea!!! Under hot sun… (No blame! Cz evry1 hope our effort will make a diff)

Then back centre and rest a while. If got chance I sure went to sleep instead of followed them chit chat at there. HAHA!!! Sure la… siao meh, chat anytime also can ma. Prepared flyers can chat, ronda can chat, lunch can chat so free abit, I ran… SLEEP… hehe!!! Yala sure is on the floor, but oklar, still have air-con….

4pm back campus ronda again. This time was funnier. I and Florence followed zeshen n tl. Then they wanted two people life and kicked us out. Huh!! So I and flo just walked out and we went to take bus. More crazy was, we distributed the flyers in the bus.. quite paise actually!! Haha!!! No bothers la, just do it.

Both of us left our hp in his car. Sigh! So we have to wait them come. They didn't appear at the last, so we borrowed hp from bus driver. ==

While they came, Steven car was there also. So we choose steven car. Zs n tl too bad. Haha!!! Ronda again lo… the Job was just ronda ma… Lastly, by the time we wanted to back center. We open the CNY song and played through the "loud speaker" on the road oo… The driver was so nervous and keep asking us stop this stupid thing. Haha!!! But we just played at behind and stop lo after the song… haha!! This called entertain ourselves…

At night, we went to rapat umum. The candidates were giving their speech and we will support and yell for our candidates, in adverse provoke to the opposite. Haha!! Its funny.

Just stayed there for a while and the girls jentera were ordered to take out the banner and flyers around. Haiz… we just hanged up last nite and took it out the other night… ==

Then… go back again… sms again… asked Chinese must remember to come out to vote… (I started scare and worry. How if tomorrow we still lose? HOW if this really happen? So what I done was, PRAY!! May god bless!!)

KitMun arranged and told everyone the place to on duty… 4am slept lo..

Went back and for sure, zs n cl laughed at me, so funny I also will laugh la… haiyo… what to do, continue work lo… I was so worried… the turn out rate was still below 20%, konkos there will have more than 60% I think are Chinese. So, mostly absent, what to do? SAD!!!

Almost 5pm still turn out rate was low.. face reality la… 5pm… ENDS!!!

8pm, started count votes…. Haha!!

*process* we just nervous also lo… run from 1 table to another to get the result…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Long long process…

School result came out first, it was really happy when we knew Kelvin win the TI seat. Then, we waited the final result… Through our calculation.. so happy that Abel Benjamin win also….

Then kept waiting ~~~

During waiting… we just joke, took photo, laughed, chit-chatting….

Finally!!!!! Almost 3am… *tterrlengterrr* final result is out…..

Yea!!! Abel and Kelvin win the seats. CONGRAZ

And is sad to said teng n Vincent lose. But they said they appreciated this opportunity to learn. =)

So… went to MCD have our supper… hehe!!! After that back to centre again to clean up… 5.30am slept last night at there ( our centre )…..

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Okay!!! A really different experience I gains. And actually I do learn from them~~ The mantan mpp…. And actually university election also will bring in some political tactics. Actually we do played fool by ''them''. So, if I was not there, I will never know what is the process and how is the "darkness of politic". Don't think that if you treat a person nice and he will treat you in the same way too. He may end up tikam u… u don't know. Yea!!! Is scary and hate….

Through this, I meet up with new friends who are quite keng I can said. And, actually during the process…. I do doubt what am I doing there? Why so crazy? Is it worth to do so? What I gain?

Many of my friends were laughed at me… Some said kepo…. While, is glad, during the war, I really figure out the answer why I stay?

Yet, by the time we knew the result…If you are not part of us You will never know how pleasure and happy we felt? The feeling is really indescribable…. I appreciated what I learn and the tough time I spend with this jentera team…

But if you asked whether I will continue next year? I can't give a confirm answer. I don't know what will happen next year! Most probably I am still in… hehe!!! Because, yea!!! As I said, I do learn…. And I think there will have a more organized team… see how lo…

2.48am…. sei lo…. Biasa jor 5am sleep….

Everything is end now. kung fu night comes next. Aiyo! I am quite disappointed to this event la. Haiz… I will just finish my job, nothing more. And I need to catch up my homework too~~

NITEZ~~ and layc no more lazy please… you have no time dy… WORK HARD!!! Rmb ur promise… =)

晒蘑菇的故事

今天一个师兄分享了一个故事--

一个老和尚在很晒的太阳下晒蘑菇。一个小和尚看到了就问：“老和尚怎么你一个人在那么大的太阳底下晒蘑菇呢？”

老和尚：“如果不是我，谁来做呢？”

小和尚：“那，为什么老和尚不等太阳没那么晒时才晒呢？”

老和尚：“现在不晒，难道我要等到太阳下山时才来晒吗？”

故事说，新的学期了，我们自己应该规划自己该做的东西，不是自己，等谁来做呢？

规划应该得从现在开始，现在不做，难道等这个学期结束了，才来后悔当初吗?

=)

第二学期

新的学期，开始参与不一样的活动。真的是有的忙了，但却觉得很不错。忙得开心，哈哈！然而，很多时候，同一时间有几个活动在同一个时间进行的时候，会开始在想究竟自己要的是什么。

有一个是在无缘无故下跟着朋友参与的。到现在都其实还清楚参与了会有什么后果。那是帮mpp的人做准备功夫。过后还得帮他们“示威”。然而昨天听朋友说，感觉好像不是想象中那么简单。会觉得有点恐怖。所以，看情况，真的有什么不对就应该会不做鸡婆了。==

这算是副业，过了他们的campaign就忙完了。

真正参与的是AIESEC还有佛学会，两个很不一样性质的活动。佛学会，感觉慢了参与，上个学期，选择回家都不错过了佛学活动。所以感觉错过很多东西。理佛，注重的是家外之家，然而慢了参与，感觉有点生疏咯！

AIESEC，一个真的可以学到很多东西的组织。一开始，整群人一起加入，却渐渐的，慢慢有人退出。一开始，我也是觉得很不适合自己，却幸运的在一个conference后，找到加入的目的。但是，有人说，最终，只能选最适合自己的学会。因为当两个学会都忙得时候，应该会傻掉吧！

今天去了佛学活动， 所以会开始想，真正需要的东西是什么。一个朋友说过，难道人生活着就是这样，出生，学习，工作，玩乐，退休，到最后结束了生命，又再轮回，过一样的生活？可能更糟，更糟，掉到地狱，畜牲道，谁知道呢？

谈起假期做了什么。他们去了佛学营，问到我，去AIESEC营。我的分享是，你们得到的应该是心灵上的成长；我的就比较现实的，比如，leadership等咯！

所以自己要的东西，可能需要点时间给我找到答案吧！

但是，目前的忙，感觉充实！=）可能，因为还没真正开课吧！tutorial要开始了，再“享受”那种折磨吧！

美國最好的老師，如何跟學生說--灰姑娘故事

這不可能是一個普通美國老師！
美國最好的老師，如何跟學生說--灰姑娘故事

上課鈴響了，孩子們跑進教室，這節課老師要講的是《灰姑娘》的故事。

老師先請一個孩子上臺給同學講一講這個故事。

孩子很快講完了，老師對他表示了感謝，然後開始向全班提問。

老師：你們喜歡故事裏面的哪一個？不喜歡哪一個？為什麼？

学生：喜歡辛黛瑞拉（灰姑娘），還有王子，不喜歡她的後媽和後

媽帶來的姐姐。

辛黛瑞拉善良、可愛、漂亮。後媽和姐姐對辛黛瑞拉不好。

老師：如果在午夜12點的時候，辛黛瑞拉沒有來得及跳上她的

南瓜馬車，你們想一想，可能會出現什麼情況？

學生：辛黛瑞拉會變成原來髒髒的樣子，穿著破舊的衣服。哎呀，那就慘啦。

老師：所以，你們一定要做一個守時的人，不然就可能給自己帶來麻煩。

另外，你們看，你們每個人平時都打扮得漂漂亮亮的，千萬不要突然

邋裏邋遢地出現在別人面前，不然你們的朋友要嚇著了。女孩子們，你們

更要注意，將來你們長 大和男孩子約會，要是你不注意，被你的男朋友看到

你很難看的樣子，他們可能就嚇昏了（老師做昏倒狀，全班大笑）。

好，下一個問題：如果你是辛黛瑞拉的後媽，你會不會阻止辛黛瑞拉去參加

王子的舞會？你們一定要誠實喲！

學生：（過了一會兒，有孩子舉手回答）是的，如果我是辛黛瑞拉的

後媽，我也會阻止她去參加王子的舞會。

老師：為什麼？

學生：因為，因為我愛自己的女兒，我希望自己的女兒 成為王后?

老師：是的，所以，我們看到的後媽好像都是不好的人，她們只是對別人

不夠好，可是她們對自己的孩子卻很好，你們明白了嗎？她們不是壞人，

只是她們還不能夠像愛自己的孩子一樣去愛其他的孩子。

孩子們，下一個問題：辛黛瑞拉的後媽不讓她去參加王子的舞會，甚至

把門鎖起來，她為什麼能夠去，而且成為舞會上最美麗的姑娘呢？

學生：因為有仙女幫助她，給她漂亮的衣服，還有把南瓜變成馬車，

把狗和老鼠變成僕人。

老师：對，你們說得很好！想一想，如果辛黛瑞拉沒有得到仙女的幫助，

她是不可能去參加舞會的，是不是？

學生：是的！

老師：如果狗、老鼠都不願意幫助她，她可能在最後的時刻成功地跑回家嗎？


學生：不會，那樣她就可以成功地嚇到王子了。（全班再次大笑）

老師：雖然辛黛瑞拉有仙女幫助她，但是，光有仙女的幫助還不夠。

所以，孩子們，無論走到哪裏，我們都是需要朋友的。我們的朋友不一定是仙女，

但是，我們需要他們，我也希望你們有很多很多的朋友。

下面，請你們想一想，如果辛黛瑞拉因為後媽不願意她參加舞會就放棄了機會，

她可能成為王子的新娘嗎？

學生：不會！那樣的話，她就不會到舞會上，不會被王子遇到，認識和愛上她了。

老師：對極了！如果辛黛瑞拉不想參加舞會，就是她的後媽沒有阻止，甚至支持她去，

也是沒有用的，是誰決定她要去參加王子的舞會？

學生：她自己。
