a meaningful lesson with Chemistry lecturer

Today, we have our chemistry lesson. Madam Yusnita distributed the marked test papers to us. We were very stress when she commented on our test. Our test held on 7 August which was Sunday. I was less confident after I took the test. Madam had set the target that she hope all of us can get A in this test before the test.

I was so upset when Madam said that there was three students failed in this test. After that, she asked that whom think that he or she will fail in this test and raise up his or her hands. I wanted to but my mind say no.  She gave us many feedback about the university life. She shared many things about her process to be a PhD now. She aimed that we know that it is the time for INDEPENDENT and BRAVE. She also wanted us always to be prepared for everything.  We should control our life now. We should be independent to do our revisions and brave enough to ask. We should not wait for answers and let the time passed like that without do anything.

Madam archieved her PhD in this year and she is 38 years old. She asked us that how long we need to archieve a PhD like her?  The answer is TWENTY YEARS! For her, twenty years are long way to lead on. Although she did not get a good result in her SPM, but she worked very hard to get her PhD. She has to take good care of her family, teaching and so on. That is why she wonder the reason of we cannot get good result in the test as we do not carry many burdens like her. Beside that, she also wonder our level of  understanding to her teaching. Although we can do every exercise that she given, but we did the mistakes on simple questions. This made her very angry.

In conclusion, she wants us to turn a new leaf. She wants us to perform better in next test. Some of her quotes made me unforgettable which are:
(a) "Jangan sombong bodoh, kamu sendiri yang rugi nanti."
(b) " Chemist is try. That's why it called Chemistry."

This lesson made me learn a lot. I learnt to be a INDEPENDENT and BRAVE person either in class or in reality.

Lend your eyes and heart

Today is my first day to "puasa". Although I still got eating and drinking, but I believe I can do it slowly.  In this morning, I think many about myself.

First is about the National Service Programme. I was so curious on the will of God at that time. Why I cannot get the offer from government???? At this moment, I know it already. I found that I cannot take good care of myself after I joined the camp. I am the one that will always got injured in the programme. Haha, God's will cannot be denied.

Secondly is about my assignments. I believe that I got very low marks for my assignments especially Information Technology. I did not know the reasons. I always feel tension with the assignments. I submitted the assignment and I cannot reached the target. It made me so disappointed and upset for few days. I tried my best to search for the answers. But, it is always different with others. I am still thinking that I will fail in my Information Technology exam. But, I hope no. I hope I can score at least a pass in my IT exam later.

Thirdly is about my homesick. I always feel like to go home with my friends as they can back to their hometown during Raya holidays. I am so envy with them. I cannot go back to Sibu as the flight ticket is too expensive than I expected. When my family telephone me, I miss my home so much. Sometimes, I also regret that I am coming too far. But, I also know that there is no way to back the original place anymore.

Lastly, I become more stressful when I heard that the assignments and the tests MUST BE finished before or  in 12th week. It made me not be joy anymore and not enjoying my university life. I hope that I will not get mad in this continuous situation. I want somebody or anybody lend his or her ears to me. I am totally lost my confidence in myself.

Experience in PLKN Selangor

Last Saturday, I joined a two days one night camp that was organised by JMK KHAR. It took place at Kem Bina Semangat Yayasan Selangor, Kuala Kubu Baru, Selangor. I aimed that I want to gain more experiences and knowledge on camping since one of my course in this semester is about camping. We had briefing in Friday night which was the night before we went to camp.

There were 40++ participants that were including exco joined this camp. We departed from KHAR to our destination at 930 am. We arrived there at 1000 am. After that, we had a talk from the camp manager, Mr. Sam. Then, we started our activity.

The first activity is "rempuh rintangan".  There were 16 obstacles for us. After Mr. Zaiful which was our trainer, explained every obstacle, we started the amazing explorance.  I was in 1st group. During the activity, I fell down from 1st obstacle which is not high. Actually, I did not know why my mind became blank when I did it. When I realized, I was on the ground and my head felt a little bit painful. I continued another obstacles till the end. My group members which were so worried about my condition wanted to wash my wounds. But, I was refused due to my fear to Dettol!!!! My friends told me that everyone was shocked on what happened on me. I did not know that as I was a little bit dizzy at that time. I was very enjoyed with the activity although I was the one injured the worst in my group.

After we had our lunch, we had explorace that needed us to use compass. In this, we learned  the ways to read compass. We were the 2nd group that finished the task. I was so glad with this. Haha....  I was glad that our group got a good leader and there were full cooperation between us. The thing that I unforgettable is the worms. It was my first time to hold the worms. Mr. Zac wanted every girls hold the worms for a while. Oh my gosh, this is the first sentence in my mind when I heard it. Luckily, I was too calm as I was panic till do not know what to do.

Next, we had our private time. I found that my wounds became very painful after I took my bath.Then, my friends "pulled"  me to meet with AJK 3K. At first, I refused and ran away from them when I saw them took the Dettol. I surrendered as I was alone and cannot "defend" myself against them. At last, I wanted to kick people.......

After this, we played a game called spider web. It was a little bit hard for me as I was not clever enough to solve this although it was a team work game. At the end, we had solve this successfully!!!

At the second day, I woke up with painfulness. I did not know the reasons. We had jungle trekking after we had our breakfast. In this, we knew many things that we never know although it is near with us. At the same time, I thanked to God for willing me to join the camp as He made me know the amazing of this nature.

We had our lunch at there. After the closing ceremony, we packed our things and back to KHAR. I learned that the friendship, teamwork and many things. At here, I want to say THANK YOU to all my friends!!!  I will keep this memory forever!!!
HAPPY, FRIENDSHIP FOREVER
