Hi!

It has been a while since I have been an active blogger. Perhaps, I have been hibernated from blogging for some time and it seems that I couldn't really get everything updated. Well, this will be quite a long post of how life has been so far. 

I will be starting my final semester in few days for my degree year. Oh dear, I didn't really realise how time flies so fast. On the first day of receiving the offer itself, I don't have that clear idea of how the 5 and the half years are going to turn into. But this is it. 5 years and it passed just like that. Perhaps, it may not turn into what my heart wishes the most, but it is what God has in store for me. For that is the one sole reason that keep me going up to now. At some points, I am fully amazed of how things work on and never thought that I am going to end to some positions in life. Some are just heartbreaking, yes it was. Some are just unbearable, but God makes it bearable for me. Looking into everything, I am in awe. So here it goes, the 5 and the half journey has almost come to an end. I hope nothing but to cherish ever moment. 

Student life has been great and yes I am going to miss it so much later. But there is always a little wish inside me of wanting to go through a Uni life as life in IPG now is almost like the normal school life, even we got the same holiday terms scheduled. Perhaps, one day I will go for it. Next year if everything goes according to plan, I will be teaching in my own school. How does it feel? Of course I'm fully excited! I don't know why some just have this misconception about teaching profession for the obvious bonus we got; high pay and long holiday. Yes, that is rewarding enough for a young adult who has just started his/her career. But I am sure that each soul called teacher always has that fulfilment seeing the pupils succeed in everything they do, not just being intellectually competence but develop positively in their personality, talents and other soft skills. To make every young ones to realise their potential and soar higher. I always have that feeling every time when I walk and wonder down the street, that how am I going to fit each and everyone of my pupil in this society, how much impacts could I give to them so that they know their roles in the community. As the impacts that I carry to them could save their whole life or put them into stake. But not all days are going good either, at some points I may find myself mourning inside for the failures caused to the little ones. That's is life. Up and down.

Holiday has been so full though there were times when I found myself doing nothing. But being surrounded by the homey environment, it makes the heart feels good. Good is enough. Yet, there are times when I just feel insecure here. I don't know why but I just don't feel safe at time especially on the raising unwanted cases recently. Need to keep myself alert all the times. I have been going out a lot too, hanging around with friends and of course playing around with cousins, and the highlight; I cut my hair short and this time I just don't regret it at all, but not sure later. Well yes, I really have to cut it short for the weather here is just intolerable. At a point I thought I was sick for sweating so much though the fan is fully functioning, but I was wrong for my aunts told the same thing too. Okay, I am just a normal one. 

Perhaps, I won't be able to record every little things going on in life for the time being. Life next semester will be very busy. I have decided to go for things that I never try before and challenge myself to where I am able to soar. If I fail, it is still good because I know the process itself is rewarding. At least I try. And if there are days when I just feel so drain inside I will challenge myself to at least smile knowing that life is good. I will fully embrace the experience and the learning process and give my best in everything. So challenge accepted, lets do this! ;)

Lastly, I hope that I won't be forgetting the on basic things even if life is drowning me away. Dear people, lets remind each other. Smile and enjoy the ride!

Coming home, soon!

So, it has been a while and really a while! Well, I'm officially 'running' towards the end line of my 7th semester, one more to nail and I'm absolutely done with it! Yeah, I'm finishing everything, on time which is totally freaking awesome, but it gets me little emotional day by day. Even moving out of my 5 years room, it gets my heart teary inside. But after all, we are staying in a new hostel block which is 3x times bigger than the old one, furnished with pairs of beds, closets and desks, attached with bathroom and most importantly, we get to sleep like a princess with cold breeze, air conditioner! Okay, that was not the main point I would like to emphasize, it is just that everything is getting me so emotional inside! But yeah, just LET it go!

The 7th semester has been great as always, which sometimes I found my self up there smiling for no reason because life is just so so so great! and other time soaking myself with ocean of tiredness, frustrations and sorrow. But that is one of the best thing in life as a final year student I guess! Having those inconsistent mix feelings, a once in a lifetime experience! Like staying up late and try not to look like a zombie in the next day, though it fails! Sometimes, just let the heart see where the experience will bring it, and if you have the heart for something just go for it! Just be bold with things, get drenched out and after that, reward yourself with something good, like food! The main compliment I always award myself which in turn I gain some kilos!

 

Anyway, I'm coming back home soon, and for something big! *wink* may everything be well, and please do! Aims for the holiday before nailing down my final semester: going for a road trip with the loveliest, 'fooling' around with my little cousins, getting a new haircut and a MUST one, diet! Hope it gives me enough energy to get this through!

The Art of Therapeutic

I had never realised that the therapy session could be a powerful medium of expression. For the last two days, we had been experiencing different types of therapy and even soaked into tears. The first session conducted was the Art Therapy. I did not intend to draw and colour things up to highlight some  of the events in my life. However, it was done unconsciously. There are lots of underlying messages behind the drawing even on the slight details. Though the interpretations could be a subjective one, but they are all closely related to my life. For the next four therapies, they were centred around different themes but related to each other: self, family and friends. They were not just conducted for us to understand the whole process, as the skills are useful in the teaching world, but also give us opportunity to express our inner feelings and emotions. It touches down to our souls.  

The sessions held also triggered us to do something that we seldom do especially in expressing love towards the people close to us. For sure, love could be express in different ways. But sometimes, it needs a kind of affirmation. It is easy to say 'I love you' to the person we love or our friends, but it will be awkward to say so with our parents especially when it is never practised at all in the family itself. I took the opportunity to do so, and it was kind of funny that my mother started to ask lots of questions, to ensure that I am okay or not. Don't worry mum, your daughter is super fine! ;)

19 January

As I don't have any exact topic to focus on, lets just hope '19 January' gets enough vibe to capture the readers' heart ;)

Long list of tasks to be completed for the final, but the enthusiasm level is inconsistent in nature! Okay, I've just realised that I've been a loyal essay writer these days and even submitted some to others. OMO. So for this time, just a brief shout out: I'm having my final teaching practice in one week time! Three months all together. Two supportive and encouraging lecturers plus two mentors from the school will observe me for this phase. One of the lecturers will be supervising my Action Research progress. I hope the consultancy process will be a smooth one and  promise to embrace the learning process! Tons of opportunities for learning are lying on the ground too, I shall take a brave step to at least go for one of them.  

Currently, I'm so into a Korean variety show, Appa Odiga, but still I am a loyal fan to Running Man! Maybe I have this strong chemistry of seeing those kids, innocent, pure and adorable! Will write some reviews on that show soon. By the way, my favourite is Yoon Hoo and his father, Min Soo! If I am to write why, then it will take an essay, thus I shall stop then on that part.

Starting the year with one big mission: trying my best to get a healthier lifestyle. Drink at least 2 litre of water each day. Jog at least 3 times a week. Sleep at least 6 hours per night. Less sugar, no Maggie (new resolution!), fruity and vege diet. Be more productive. Okay, too many on the list, but if one really wants something it is not wrong to put efforts on it, working at his/her own pace. Let see where the efforts will bring me!

I'm thinking of getting my hair cut to shoulder length, as I don't have any version of that hair in my college life. Who knows, it will be an eye candy vibe to everyone, just like Ji Hyo. Plus, it will save more time on getting ready for the class. I need to get my heart decisive to have a go on it!

New term with new terms

Attending lectures for just few sessions in these few days bombed me with lots of new terms. Last time, we use to just do thing with the structure given, looking for information, trying to rephrasing in the most simplest manner, and presenting those idea for everyone to digest. But in this new term, you gotta use the mind productively. Deep thinking, deep research. Loading more input for your world, eyes, experiences. Taking into consideration of so many viewpoints, making justifications to which extend to agree and disagree. Weighing things out, digesting and absorbing all the abstract assumptions. Learning that there is no right or wrong ones, just how logic or creative you are in putting things together. Honestly, it was a kind of 'shock' to the mind. 

Though it feels like burdening the thought with so much new terms, but still I'm falling in deep love for the subjects. Very interesting, eye opening, insightful and of course inspiring for the heart and soul. After all those years, I am here, interpreting and analysing words NOT numbers. Dealing with language was one of the hardest things that my mind had once experienced, but now I am slowly adapting to it. Which make sense of the the notion that was exposed today: we couldn't be focussing on building up the strengths only, but also to look into what is deficient and find ways to improve it. Trying to strike balance in everything. Not intend to be a perfect one, but to learn, grow, develop as much as we could in every aspect. That could be one of the strong justifications of why I am walking down the path. 

With this new term, I hope I could get myself blend with the new terms too! 

2014 updates!

Hi!

So here I am again, doodling and rambling on things. I am back to IPG and you gotta believe it that this is my  final year! Finally, after all the sweats and inks poured, I am here standing as a final year student! 

Again, I haven't been writing so much about the holiday, the must tell Christmas story, the New Year celebration and of course the resolutions! As everyone ages up, the way they look, perceive and idealise on things change from time to time. That once, wishing everyone on a festive day through text message is a norm, but in the era of Facebook, tagging will spread the wish much more easier. The same go to other things. The way of how we carry things out will be different from year to year, and it is okay to be that. Won't it be good for everyone to change for the better version of themselves? In short, I just want this year to be a productive one, giving the best in everything that I am venturing into, and discover as much as I can even if the road is paved in such that it brings the heart pounding feeling of riding on the coaster. 

I have change the URL of my blog, which is now officially become - frecyllamay.blogspot.com., the title to 'Blessings in my Life' and the most obvious is my header photo. 10 pictures of my edited-own-self that depict the life I am in, though they are not able to precisely describe every single detail about me, but it gives you some idea on who I am. Again, my smiles, those symbolise the virtual greetings for you from me! Every change is to get the site more into personal look of me. This year, I promise to blog more!

Talking about this semester, we only have two subjects and 3 months of standing in front of 30-40 pairs of eyes moments. One of the subjects will be on Action Research, major paper. Honestly, I am curious and scared at the same time of imagining how would the sail be. I hope I could get the right direction of which way to head. Only two subjects? Yup, I have ample of time to have fun, being lazy and a loyal sleepy head! Still, I will force myself to be a productive soul. 

In 3 weeks time will be my third teaching practice, 3 months! This time, I hope that I could elicit and deliver as much as I could. Even though still standing at the inexperience level, but I will try my best to build great rapport with the kids as well as providing opportunities for them discover their own potentials and at the same time trigger their self-learning and self-discovering sides. I know that sounds so much of ambitious, heavy and what the what? Pointing this out is not just merely constructed sentence or disseminating some kind of educational philosophies. But something that come from inside, to realise that the joy of teaching do not come from the grade you get from the mentors, or the praises of how well you did in front of the class but the small little matters that come from the pupils. The joy that they experience from learning, the happiness portray when they are able to do something, the smiles of getting their efforts praised and so on. For this phase, I will give myself as much chance to learn and discover the 'pearl' of teaching too.

In 2014, I get to read and know that most of us want something new, something better and something great for our life. More happiness, lively life, great health, success, wealth and the lists go on. In my own age group, some have started to settle down with career. I love knowing about their stories of working life and actually couldn't wait from my turn too! I believe that everyone has special part and role in building the nation. No matter which profession you are, you could make a difference, carry impact and get people inspired!

Again, before the speech ends, I am not in favour for the road to be easy or sweet all the times. Let it be a challenging one, for I know that He is always in control of things, through the uncertainty and unpredictable journey. It is not just to feel thankful and blessed for the good times but to have faith that during the tough time, He wants us there for purposes and reasons. 

Lastly, I hope and wish everyone to have another great year!

Hi !

Hi, it has been a while! 

I guess I have been too much travelling these few weeks! Going here and there, just like a tour all around Sarawak, but a free one! And yes, I have been to almost all the main cities in Sarawak! It is not just about dancing, travelling or sitting in the bus for hours but those highlighted moments spent with the wonderful company who hyper-actively cracking jokes all the way, meeting new people and creating memories! Those things are the ones that making this journey worth.

And as usual, I had been pampering my stomach with foods! Trying to soak all the sweet and sour delicacies of Sarawak. So for the coming days/weeks/months, I need to put on a strict & healthy diet!

Practicum 2 is coming soon too! It is kind of nerve-racking but I guess it will be an exciting one! I wonder how would my pupils be this time. Whatever it is, let have fun learning together! But yes, I need to prepare myself mentally, emotionally and physically too for everything that lies ahead. Practicum 1 has been a great exploration for me and this 2nd phase will be the time for tying up and  putting things in actions. Let see how it goes later!

Have a Blessed Fasting Month to all my Muslim friends and Happy Practicum 2 to all PISMP Jan 2011 teacher trainees all around Malaysia!

Can't wait for the trips in few months time, pray for everything to go well! *wink*

'Leaving On a Jet Plane'

I'm leaving in less than 24 hours and this time my heart is too heavy to do so. But, I have no other choice. So dear heart, lets do this together! 

Holiday has always been great for me, especially when surrounded by families! What I love the most is to just sit and listen to stories told by them. Even on the last week of holiday, I still got my 'sweet escape' to Pitas and Kota Marudu. Last year, during this holiday time, I went for a stay in my cousin's house at KM and got a scarred tattoo after riding on the bike. But for this holiday, I went there and learn to ride the bike which I did! O my! 

As usual, a routine before leaving for IPG, we went for shopping and shopped a lot today! We had our family dinner together too which cost only RM 9.90 per person, Japanese & Korean Vege Buffet at Karamunsing and everyone is to eat as much as he/she wants! 

I met Ellye yesterday and as usual we talked a lot! It makes me to miss the story times we used to have together. Yes, I can't wait for everyone to finish their study! We still have long lists of things to do together!

In one month time, I will be having my second practicum which is around Kuching too. As usual, will be having lectures, BIG and some events! I am not wishing it to be an easy semester but I hope that all of us will have the strength to endure together on whatever that may come along the way and wisdom to handle all the things that we are to do. Stay the course!

For now, dear Mr. Pilot, who ever you are, get the jet ready! :)

A Thought

I went for my second jog today after one month did not have one, finally! Such a refreshing feeling! I have always love to jog! It is not just for health or to maintain my slimness! But more than that. At times, I love spending time alone, looking at the wide sky, seeing the sun setting, watching the people playing sports, listening to the song of flying birds or simply feeling the warm breeze. What a peaceful feeling! In that calmness, i get myself some time to reflect about life as whole. Thinking about the past events, the things that are happening now and the awaited future moments. For everything, all i could say is 'what a great journey travelled, and yes i can't wait for the next adventures!'

I did spend some time for outings, watching lots of movies, talking randomly and sleeping with no alarm set.  I am savouring and enjoying every moment of it! Yes, i need some breaks after the one month practicum. Listening to some stories on practicum from other friends makes me feel that 'yes, everyone is fighting their own battle, dealing with various challenges'. It was not just the teaching part that makes the tiredness grow but the process of planning and everything. We only have like 10 periods of teaching and given small tasks for this practicum. But when we are in the real world of teaching, we have to take like 28 periods per week and given some big responsibilities along the way. The challenges in physically, mentally and emotionally will be bigger than before. Life must be quite busy then. Sometimes, i wonder if i am able to cope with it. But i believe i could and everyone could too. Now, is the process of learning and training to prepare us for the real challenges. Most importantly, never give up trying and don't loss passion in what you are doing. This is not just happening to us, future educators, but to everyone in whatever profession they are into or going to be in. 

Through days, i learn that the assignments given, the lectures held and the events organised are not just merely there for us as college students. But that is part of the training for everything that lies in the future. Because in later days we are not only to deal with our career but also the people and things around us: family that need to be taken care of, friendship circle that need to be kept, relationship that need to be built or simply making time for ourselves and the lists go down. Having my practicum for one month too makes me feel like 'Oh, this is my working life in the future'. And yes, i was really rarely in contact with everyone. After everything ended, I just had that overflowed feeling of missing everyone. But this is just the earlier stage. There are still lots of things i need to learn and through the process i believe that i will be able to balance everything and everyone will too. 

I don't hope for something bombastic to happen in my life. I just want to live it, savour every moments, even through the difficult and hectic times, with the people around and feel the blessings that God has for me. 

Hey Rooster!

Hey Rooster!

Finally, the show was over. It was great indeed! I know everyone had given their best and most importantly, we enjoyed it so much being in The Rooster family!

I would like to express a heartfelt gratitude to our beloved mummy, Madam Angelia. Such an inspiring woman, she has always been so excited, motivated and determined in everything she does. She teaches us not only for the sake of passing the exam but the knowledge on life as whole. She is not only a producer and director for the drama but a blessing for us. She helps us to explore the different sides of ourselves as well as to discover the beauty in life and to experience so many new brand things like having ourselves on air, being published in the newspaper and even being cheered on stage just like all the actors and actresses. Even people inside and outside of the college are talking about the drama and us! What a strong vibe reflected and  i am sure that not everyone has the chance to be in that position but because of her, we were there. Yes, it saddened me too knowing the fact that she is going to retire soon. I hope she will have a great time enjoying the rest of her lives with loved ones. Once again, thank you Madam Angie! 

To my Tesl siblings, it had been a great room for us to bond and understand each other being in the production. It is not just merely on completing the assignment but a valuable learning process for us to build our profession as future educator. I know it was quite difficult for us to work things out sometimes, we even get into conflicts, reflecting some negative vibes. But i know, at the end of the day, those things are the ones that help us to understand each other more. After all the hard works and hectic times, we deserve a long pleasurable rest and that retreat was the best gateway. I know, it was quite a last minute for me to join but yes i did have a great time though it was just a short one. But i am sure that everyone was having a lot of fun there. I hope we could have another class trip in the future when everyone is able to join and create some great memories together before we graduate. And, I am sure that it will be an awesome one! :)

I would to say thank you so much too to our choristers and the helpers for willingly joining us. We really appreciate your efforts. You guys really help a lot in helping us to complete this assignment. Thank you too our beloved Director for the supports. Not to forget all the lecturers, the teacher trainees and IPBL-ians as whole. We are blessed too to have all the sponsors coming unexpectedly; Secret Recipe, Milo, Scholastic, Uni Bookstore and etc. And to Jennifer Lau, we really have a great time being on air with you the other day, thank you so much! Last but not least, thank you to our parents, friends and everyone for the undying supports. Above all, thank you God for making all these things possible :)

Kejohanan Olahraga 2013 IPBL

I know I got so many things to be completed and submitted in these few hours to go, but i couldn't resist myself to just write short and quick updates on the KOT. 

I am so thankful that everything went well. Everyone was working cooperatively and dedicatedly. I was amazed that things were working so fine and smooth. The lecturers were so happy and feel proud of us. PISMP January 2011, i couldn't pass the thank you word to each of you, but i know that everyone had given their best in the tasks assigned. Not to forget all IPBL-ians, thank you for the supports. 

As usual, i am taking events too! Last minutes decision, but indeed i was satisfy and completely overwhelmed. 'Winning over medals and against other people is good, but winning against yourself is much more better.' True! Amazingly, this time i was actually savouring all the moments while running, seeing how each and everyone whom i passed by never stop supporting along the way and even the crowds were cheering actively! My heart was fascinated! Indeed, that is how life goes! 

Picture with the 'Olahragawan' 2013, the Woody Stick a.k.a TESL sibling, Mr. Wan. He deserves it after months of preparing and practising! Congratulation Wan!

I have seen too some souls whom run with full of determination. Giving their best! That is one of the reasons why i have always love Sports Day. The athletes were awesome! Indeed, the best scene in Sport Day was not on the one who reached the finishing line first but on the one who run at the last place towards the finishing line with full determination. 

Yes, at first I quite worry that things won't run as planned, with all the last minutes preparations. But i have faith in it. Seeing everyone working and things run smoothly on the days were like a miracle. I truly believe that God puts me in certain position to learn from a new angle, to leave some impacts to some souls and for 'real' purposes. Above all, I thank God for everything. :)

The Rooster Who When to His Uncle's Birthday Party

“The Rooster Who Went to His Uncle’s Birthday Party” is a play specifically written for children and the young at heart. The play has its plot taken from an old Cuban tale (retold by Alma Flor Ada) and written into a children’s play by Mdm Angie. We, the TESLians of the Institut Pendidikan Guru Kampus Batu Lintang are proud to bring this play to life. Follow us on our journey with the Rooster to his Uncle’s birthday party. Join us for the play AND the party on 23 March 2013 at 9.00 a.m.; at the Tun Ahmad Zaidi Adruce Auditorium, IPG Kampus Batu Lintang, Kuching.

Becoming a teacher: A blessing!

Every profession is 'special' in its own way. Yet, it depends greatly on one of how he wants to set the degree of specialness.

Why being a future educator is so special for me? Because a teacher is a life saver of someone's entire life. The impact, no matter small or big, that teacher brings to the class could jeopardize one's future or could turn him into a great person one day!

Studying in teacher institute is not just merely of passing the examination, or scoring the highest pointer, or joining activities around campus, or having fun with course mates, or performing in an event, or staying up the whole night just to finish assignment. It is more than that. It is a process to prepare me for the real challenges in the career that i have chosen.

I don't want to graduate with just an excellent achievement in degree course, but i want to graduate with a smile on my lip and satisfied heart seeing back all the journey that i have travelled for years which has turned me to be my 'real' self. I don't want to graduate just as a knowledgeable teacher in my major field, but with the heart to share the knowledge I have with others. I don't want to graduate with just a title as 'Teacher' in my hand, but I want to stand with the title as a passionate teacher. Because the road that i am going to travel later is a long one, and just merely graduating might fade away the 'spirit' in myself. Studying for five and the half years is a room for me to build that endless passion as a teacher who don't only teach and educate but also inspire the heart of young generations. 

Being in college for five and the half years is a great opportunity for me to explore the different sides of myself through the activities, even the simple one, that are held. The assignment given every semester is not for me to just complete it, but it is a medium for me to improve and do better than the previous one. The events held are not just for me to join and enjoy but also a great paradise for me to discover the talents in myself. Maybe, some prefer to travel the journey in just a simple manner. As long as they pass, as long as they graduate, it would be okay. Yes, I do agree that simplicity is the best. But won't it be great to travel on the up and down path, on the challenging road, just like riding a roller coaster which bring a heart pounding excitement! 

Being a TESL student at first was something that my heart don't favour at all. Too hard to cope, especially when doing things that is not for your heart or something that you are not good at. But looking back the journey that i have travelled so far, it is more than worth. I am walking down this path for various 'real' reasons. Not just to be good at what i am not good at, not just to love at one I don't, but to be the 'blessings' for others that I met and going to meet along the way. There are many paths that i have travelled, some bring me to the down side, some to the up side, but i have no regret travelling on it. Because if i haven't taken some paths that are so different from others, i won't reach at this stage of life, and i won't meet the people in this position of life. But i have and i never regret it. 

In this stage of life, with the good and bad things, with the positives and negatives auras, with the up and down feelings, i still and always feel blessed. Indeed, God's plan is greater than i know. 

Becoming a teacher is not just a special call for me, but a blessing! :)
It is a long way to go, but i am sure i am able to go through it with God's grace.

Blood Donation

31.01.13

It was my first time ever donating blood ! At first, i was so freaking nervous, as if i am going to deliver a baby any soon, which i could imagine how painful it was after listening to my aunt's story on giving birth. O my! But still, with all my heart, i went through it and surprisingly it turned out to be just fine.

So that is me with my donated blood and the lovely ladies! Big thanks to them and some friends whom have encouragingly supporting and calming me down. Kamsahamida!

My whole point to donate blood was actually to overcome the 'fear' in me, as it was a first time experience. Having a needle stuck on my skin was one of the biggest fears i ever had. Before the blood donation, one of my lectures came to us and told that the 'fear' feeling was just a perception that the mind made. All you have to do is to calm yourself down, and i was really trying my best. It was not just the fears that almost chase away my intention to donate blood but also the 'rumour' that was spread by some friends that blood donating could make a person gain weight. O my! But after surfing the internet i found that donating blood is one way to burn the calories in our body. Maybe because the insufficient energy that one experienced after the donation process cause him/her to tremendously increase the food intake. Could be that way.

After everything, well, it doesn't hurt that much actually and there is no obvious change in my weight either. So after this, I could go for another round of blood donation peacefully.

Interestingly, i also found that blood types could determine one's personality:

'TYPE A'
 Sensitive to the needs of others, good listeners, detail oriented, analytical, creative and inventive. Type As may seem calm on the outside, but inside, you’re filled with anxiety and worry. Tend to be cooperative, sensitive, clever, passionate and smart. Often bottling up anxiety in order to get along with others, they may hold in their emotions until they explode. 

'TYPE B'
Subjective, easygoing, creative, original and flexible. Type B's can be very goal-oriented and often complete the ambitious tasks set before them. Outgoing and very charming, you’re good at reading people and providing support. Impulsive individualists who often create their own path in life. You are very strong and optimistic. Blood type B individuals tend to be balanced: thoughtful like A's and yet ambitious like O's. They are empathetic, easily understanding others' points of view, yet often hesitating to challenge or confront. Chameleon-like and flexible, they make good friends.

'TYPE O'
Responsible, decisive, organized, objective, rule-conscious, and practical. Type O's are the social butterflies. Often popular and self-confident, you are very creative and always seem to be the center of attention. You make a good impression on people and you’re often quite attractive. Organized and determined, your stubbornness will help you reach your goals. You make good leaders.

'TYPE AB'
Type AB are intuitive and spiritual, with an ability to look beyond the rigid confines of society. ABs can be quite dualistic, possessing both A and B traits. You often stand out from others, don’t like labels, and are nice and easy going. You are logical and determined to do things correctly. Usually trustworthy, you like to help others. You often speak in a serious manner. Your patience, concentration, and intelligence are admirable. Tend to be very charming and popular.

Isn't this interesting? But it may not all true because of the diverse lifestyle, cultures and background in a society. Partially, it could be.  

Anyway, the Chinese New Year holidays is here! One week away from lectures, superb isn't it? Happy Chinese New Year for those who are celebrating. Can't wait for the CNY's open house trip! Yeee! 

'Rooster, oh Rooster'

Okay, my mind is full of the Rooster things right now and i need some air, some spaces, some entertainments! Two days off from college and Rooster, hopefully it will make enough time for me to entertain myself and have some lovely time with people around! 

I must have been mentioning the word 'Rooster' like thousand times recently. Actually, it is a drama for our LGA paper, a BIG production and part of the assignment requirement for the subject in this semester which will be performed around March and until then we will be busy with preparations. A challenge for us and i believe we are going to make it excellently well. 

P. S. This is so funny that the boys in the class started to play around with the peace sign as i have, unconsciously, posted three consecutive pictures of me making the peace sign on FB. Anyway, it does brighten our day with smiles and laughters. Something to do with happiness, don't depend on others to be happy but be the source of happiness to others. Smiles and peace always! 

Happy weekends!

2013 IPBL

Finally, my third year as Degree student has come and i can smell the air pressure around. I haven't even entered the class, the lecturers had started looking for me. Don't worry, i am in progress of looking for moves and will be burning some oils tonight to look through the script. Indeed, this is a gold opportunity for me being in that position to learn more in other perspectives of life. But still, i do need some helping hands to work on it. Dear TESL siblings, let us work together for this production and for overall activities along this semester and onwards. 

Two more years to go. May God bless this journey as future teacher and inspiring educator :)

PS. It will be a miracle if we meet, but we did not. I guess, it is save for the future.

Camps in a row

SYD & BIG camps done ! Tomorrow will be another camping, which might be the last one for this semester. It is a UB camp, KRS and i am super duper excited for it ! can't wait for all the adventurous activities ! Out of everything, i really enjoy camping. I have always love camping since ages !

P.S. Have you ever dreamt of going for a date with someone ? I did and it was really really a great feeling!

3 years Anniversary

13 July 2012

Hmm.. I can't understand why people are talking about today's date, as if something is wrong somewhere. Anyway, it is a special date for all the PPISMP July 2009 intake ! Happy 3rd year anniversary fellow teacher trainers ! 2.5 more years to go ~ jiayouuu ! We made half through of the journey ! Yeayy !

To my fellow TESL siblings in IPBL, thank you for the great and wonderful journey ! I know, it is going to be quiet a tough journey for us as we are one of the spotted batches for MQA ! But, I truly believe that we are going to make it through together !

IPBL's hockey teams

I am playing hockey for IPBL's team. We named ourselves as BL Ruby. There are one girl's team and three boy's teams sent for the tournament which will be held this weekends at Kuching Hockey Turf, 14th and 15th of July. It will be my second time joining a hockey tournament ! The first one was during my secondary school day when i was in form 5. But i can't even recalled how the game was played. The only  memories that were playing in my mind was there were a lot of shouting. Seriously, a lot ! Because we were just at the beginner level and had to compete with more experienced teams. Anyway, it was a fun game !

Now, I am playing hockey again. IPBL... jiayouuu ! :)

Updates

The second week of the new semester is almost over. But, i am still not able to tune myself with the study environment ! I have been pampering myself for most of the time, like being so RELAX as if there is no task to be completed. I have lost my interest in Facebook-ing and updating my blog. I guess, i don't have that much things to pour out anymore. But still, the heart-pounding excitement of going for a convoy is still there. Yes, I really want to have another round of it!

I just feel so blessed with everything. I have had a great day attending every lecture, not because of the study part, but because i enjoy being around my classmates. Somehow, I feel the bond between us has grown so much closer. We crack jokes everyday and even laugh at the same jokes over times ! How wonderful it is ! In less than two weeks, it will be our 3rd year anniversary! 3 years? That is so fast. Too much memories created along the way, and i am just so thankful for having them throughout my journey of life. Years to come, we might find ourselves walking in different parts, channelling all the knowledge we have gotten to the new generation. Yet, this circle of friendship should not be broken, will keep you all in my heart always :) 

Thank you for everything ~ PISMP TESL Jan 2011 IPBL
