my 2nd Life :)
On this date, 5 years ago.
So on this date, 13th July 2011 I took a risk by letting myself to get into a semi regimental system 'prison', yet The Best merchant navy academy in Malaysia !, named
AKADEMI LAUT MALAYSIA (ALAM).
I had no idea if I would stay but I knew this gonna be something that I ll hate. But you know, the world has a lot to offer so just have to explore !
To survive there when I had no talent, no experience, not even physical strength, was killing.Yes. Torturing for me (maybe it was easy for someone else but idc) ..The only thing that I had was Love towards my parents. Each time I felt like giving up I thought of nothing but them. You know ,like pity them la if I quit! Surely I gonna give headache punya. I couldnt count how many times I cried ,(the feeling was more into the malay drama because my cabin had a balcony facing the beach! shit damn good) not because of the punishment from the seniors but to think on ' Can I really do this, Is this really what I want. ' And that was the first time after 18years of living that I am totally doubt on my decision. Was thinking, maybe the age of 18 is a starting of life assessment !
But Allah is great. He knows what I want , what is best, thus he made me stay regardless the countless times of my intention to quit especially when I failed one of the modular course that caused me such a shame to myself cz I never failed in schooltime. So yea, you better learn on how to get used to failure haha.
Today,while typing this. I am grateful and touched that He always shows me the way cz I always asked Him, always,always seek for the answer. Why la like this ,why I have to do this bla3. So after I signed off last vessel recently, I know why. I have seen part of the ' there's a reason beyond everything' :) Because ayah always reminds me, patience is bitter but the fruits are sweet ! And yes we all ve gone tru lots of shit but when the time comes that you ll finally get the fruits, ahh indahnya . tho I know these are all temporary and will get another piles of bitterness in few more weeks when I get back to work, neyhh but it's ok la. That's why Im living my holiday to the fullest . On bed hahah jk. Okay got to continue my running man episodes . What to do, usually at this hours Id be talking to Aghis on the phone and he s not here so I better get my eyes on Gary hahahhaaha bye!

So how was my 7 months on ship?
Eagle Torrance, whom trading in US/Mexico waters , not so new yet a lovely ship as it has elevator haha. So as I was a fresh graduate , I joined the ship as a 4th offficer and got promoted as 3rd officer after 4months of joining, Alhamdulillah tho it was expected to be later than that cz usually it takes 6months and more but faith has it own ways !
Workwise?
The ship was not that busy compared to Bunga Kelana 9, my 2nd ship. For those who wonder, I work on a tanker ship length of 250m+- and breadth of 42m+- that carries Crude Oil as cargo. Some other ships for eg I think people are more familiar on container ships they usually carry more type of cargoes from the clothes to vegetables, toys and etc. Some ships carry vehicles and also the living goods. And the most favourite one is surely the Passenger Cruise :) So what my ship and any other tanker ships do, we carry oil either from the sea to port or vice versa. Usually as mine, we go to sea to 'meet' with a larger vessel ( ship) to load the cargo (oil) from them and we then sail to discharge the cargo at port. Well usually it s the oil from Saudi Arabia. And at least in Torrance, we sometimes had a long anchorage, means to say the ship is not able to berth and therefore we anchor at sea or at an anchorage area just nearby with the port. well sometimes it's due to the port schedule and for a STS (SHIP TO SHIP) operation it's always be the weather condition that doesnt permit the operations to go on.
What I do?
Onboard the ship, we have Deck Department, Engine Department, Catering Department.
I am one of in the Deck Department. It's quite tough to explain what exactly we do onboard, but I ll try. Here's the hierarchy on merchant vessel.
So I started as Cadet in ALAM as well as Cadet onboard the ship before could make it to the graduation, and now it takes me another two to be a Captain.. zzz okay so what we do ,
We have Officers, Engineers, and Crews. The blue columns are crews. As for officers we navigate the ship while sailing, handle the cargo while cargo operation , mooring operation which is the berthing of ship, fire fighting and safety matters of the ship and, okay that s the shortest brief I can say haha I cant tell everything la it may take the whole page then. Basically it's everyone's responsibility but for in charge, usually it takes the officer or engineer.
7 months? You cant say lah, it actually a 6+-1 month/s contract but sometimes you have to stayfor more than that and trust me you ll feel like burning in the head cz nothing except your body is together on the ship. The rest is at home already.
How was the life,
Hmm I wonder how many more ships to take me into the familiarity of making the ship as a home. It has always been a strange world to me and always be such a place that I think, I never want to but I have to be there. If people ask me why do I think life there is stressful, the people onboard, not really about the work matters. But anyway, work, life , responsibility , have to go on and the only things that may help you are prays. Believe in HIM. This thing that happens to me may not be the happiness moment in my entire life, but a major success that I can hold on. :) The experience that I wish everyone could have it. HE, answers my prayers .
So when is my next contract? Neyhhh later lah after raya! owh and if you want to view my onboard pictures, kindly go to my instagram ( both accounts ) and facebook. I dont private them so you may stalk even without me knowing, no problem :)

12th May 2016 / 2030LT /MALAYSIA
___________________________________________________________________________
It is so long, I have to warn you that you may read a paragraph a day haha
The beginning in ALAM .. I was amazed by the rooms or we
call room as cabin. Two
people sharing in one room , a very comfortable house consisted of four cabins ,
and the lucky me I had a room with a corridor and the sea view ! Amazing. My
roommate’s name was Wani. Nurul Syazwani
from Pahang and I had meet her earlier in Pacific Hotel Kl last time
during the interview and my seat was just beside her. For real I was kinda, ashamed a bit to
her as I could see that she was a very good and polite girl, with tudung besar,
the way she spoke and all while I was , not wearing tudung and worst was I
even put on heel shoes for the interview err. And we got the same sponsor company ! Great
so yes I should take you as my roommate. The first day I came to ALAM for MISC
and AET induction , the dinner was good we had butter rice and blackpepper
chicken chop with french fries and mushroom soup. Wow I loved to be in ALAM
then. But that was only on the first day. The rest of my life in there , I got
sick with the same bored menus but yea
what do you expect from the hostel foods.
Few weeks after my AET induction was the report day for all
new intake cadets so then I have met more people or I can call them as , okayla
batchmates. We had our induction week and based on what the lady seniors told
us, their induction few years ago was kinda bad. They had to jump from Pernas
Propane our practical ship, and swam to the shore! And they had to pass one fish from mouth
to mouth till the last person in the baris and they had to side rolls on tar
road from here to somewhere there . omg lot worst ahahahaha. To hear that, I started to doubt why am I there
in that place hoping that our induction will not be that bad and luckily, it
wasn’t that bad pheww. On our induction programe, we had to jump 5metres above the water level of our
swimming pool and amazingly, I couldn’t swim and I was ( and still) afraid of
height. First, how am I going to jump ? I didn’t think I can step out my foot
from the platform and let myself drown down there ! I couldn’t float either how
can I swim to the pool side ? And I am in here
akademi LAUT Malaysia with the fact of I cant swim ? I saw Shikin struggling
once she jumped to the water and when they brought her to the side, she vomited
so I got scarier .hahaha When it came to my turn , I didn’t know how but I just jumped
and when I was down there in the water, I looked for the senior who was holding
the lifebuoy and I grabbed it and , he brought me to the pool side. With shame. I remember you, Senior Victor ! Thanks senior.
Then we had the ‘obstacles’ was just like the one we can see in army
movies you know, jump the wall, crawl through the mud, walk on a tiny moving
wood and bla3. I had no problem with those cz I used to experience them
during school camping but the monkey bars, I fall down with shame so I had to side rolls together
with my friend Eryn and our white sport shirts were so nothing less than the
teh tarik colour. And the shirts couldn’t be used anymore we had to throw them bye bye! Next we had 2.4 km run around the ALAM campus and I hated it, like so much do
you know how much I hate jog ! And they even took the timing, like what if I
got more than 15 minute? Not qualified and what what what? Haiyer but I made it
tho I felt like crying forcing myself to keep running because I didn’t want to
be the last for sure , its what we call as , marketing hehe.( because the male seniors kept watching , xlari sikit kena tiao jerit macam hape)
The induction ended. We started to go for classes and I was so
surprise, ALAM was like my last secondary school ! Assembly every morning , we
call it as COLOURS or COLORS em not sure tho where we had to sing Negaraku, Melaka Maju Jaya , ALAM
anthem song Live the Glory , and pledge ! The COLORS will be ran by the
juniors, whom raised the flags, whom rang the bell, and whom stood
in front for the pledge. I hated this also. ( Did i just say HATE again? )When it comes to my class’ turn to
run the show, the platoon leader of my class would definitely ask the ladies to
go for the pledge. We have four ladies in my class, so usually three will be at
the flag mast holding the flags, and the loner warrior will give the pledge.
You know, when you do the pledge in front of everyone especially your seniors ,
you feel like the predators are watching you, closely, deeply, aiming for
mistakes you can even miss the line and when you do mistakes in pledge , or
bell or the / song not yet finish flag already up there’, the seniors will be
like.. ‘ woooiii’ ‘ boo’ ‘weee’ or bla3 I swear it was scary . I hated the most
when I was asked to recite the pledge coz when the senior platoon leader who was incharged
shouted ‘ pledge!’ then I had to kawad from my class’ file to in front ,alone ,
wearing the tucked in white shirt and you know how awkward it is you feel like
everyone is looking at you and your walk ! haish. And ofcourse, there s no
microphone you had to shout !
We ! The CADETS of ALAM
PLEDGE THAT
WE WILL STUDY DILIGENTLY
PLEASING OUR HEART AND SOUL
IN OUR CHOSEN CAREER! FOR THE COUNTRY!
AND MARITIME INDUSTRY!
WE WILL MAINTAIN!
HIGH STANDARD OF DISCIPLINE
TO WORK AS A TEAM
AND TO UPHOLD OUR ALMA MATTER AT ALL TIME !
Nah that is the pledge . So most of the students missed the
lines, or out of the blue forgot what was the next verse tho have been
practising all night long before the morning, because of nervous. But so far I
did well. Till, the evening after I finished my class my lady senior came to me
. There were two possibilities. Either she wanted to ask me to buy her food in
café tonight, or she saw me doing something wrong. She told me that she didn’t
like the way I pledge this morning so I asked her why ? She said cz my voice
ain’t man enough and I was like, it’s my voice. She warned me that if later on
I have to recite the pledge again , make sure that I change my voice and I was
like, okay senior. Will do and she asked me to pass the message to my other
ladies but I didn’t cz I was thinking that it isnt necessary.
Days in classes were dull. Everything was new and I couldn’t
believe that I was studying about ship, about the sea, the skies I could have been
in maybe a law class or an economic err no no I hate banking that was why I
chose ALAM. The first thing I learnt about ship was, there’s no left or right,
behind or in front , for the ship. They are called, Port and Starbord, and Aft
and Forward. Interesting. And the lecturer said, that it’s not move forward or
backward or anyhow you call it in your daily life. It’s go ahead and go astern
then I remembered owh that was how my grandmother always said, gohed gostan !
The seniors started to show themselves , one by one, group
by group. In roll call the every night assembly before we went for sleep, we
were introduced to the prefects of the school. The highest, Cadet Captain (CC)
the only one yellow lanyards, some Assistance Cadet Captain (ACC)the red lanyards,
and some Platoon Leaders (PL) the blue lanyards. They were called as the RANK
HOLDERS. For us ladies, we had around ten senior ladies and one ACC. We were
warned or better call as reminded , that in here, it’s One For All ,All For One
! One person makes mistake, everyone will get the pay and they explained to us
the dos and don’ts.
Owh bytheway, before we got to the seniors me and the ladies
were always in caution like, ea don’t forget if we saw anyone, we wish them ‘
good morning senior good evening senior’ okay ? So one time, we saw a lady
which we believed our senior well we couldn’t identify cz She was not in
uniform so to play safe, we wished her ‘ good morning senior ( stinky smile)’
and she replied ‘ siapa kata kau junior aku!’ huh? Okay we started to feel bad,
and afraid. The next time we saw a lady heading to our accommodation so for
sure she was our senior then one of us said ‘ bla3 kak.’ And she replied ‘ bila
masa aku kahwin dengan abang kau?’ aiyooo how lah wish salah tak wish nanti
kena so we played safer. One day we saw a lady walking in front of us so we
discussed among us if we want to wish her and one of my mate said ‘ no lah I
think she is akak cleaner’ and so we kept silent. That night, someone came to
our cabin and guess who, it was the lady who we saw that evening and she asked
us ‘ siapa kata aku akak cleaner tadi? Aku senior korang’ ohmygod okay then we
got lectured very well. I say, very well.
Ramadhan came. It was my very first time to sahur and
berbuka without my family . I never stayed in boarding school before , I never
washed my clothes by myself I didn’t even know how to use the manual washing
machine but in there I had to do everything by myself. We washed the clothes by
hand and went to galley ,our canteen for the meals which I wasn’t used to too
as I asked my mother if I wanted to eat anything and I got it and suddenly here
in ALAM , you eat whatever they give, if you don’t eat, you will be starving
and who cares? People give you food so you eat ! The first weekend in Ramadhan
my family paid me a visit so they
brought me to the town ,bought some cakes and my junk foods then I realised I
hate to be apart from them and what? At sea for a year. Funny!
A lady senior asked me to meet her so I did. She told me that
I had to change the way I walk, this is not LimKokWing, you walked like a model.
Someone asked me to change my voice and now, my walk? I didn’t do catwalk in
kawad for sure and if she saw me walking the way I walk, I was definitely walking
around the accommodation, or on my way from class to the toilet or where else ?which
I believed ,my walj my wish lah unless I walked like a model in kawad which I
was sure I didn’t cz we had to kawad all the time in the file and where was the
sense that I catwalk in kawad like show me how cz even I couldn’t do that. Then
she asked me why did her classmates the boys asked for my phone number and I
was like, I had no idea as she said, they asked her not me who asked her
their’s. I started to piss off I started to feel that rules are rules but some
people were just out of their mind creating silly issues. Obviously it was a
personal attack. Apahal I have to hange this and that , it s myself which I DONT BREAK THE RULES, I DONT TROUBLE PEOPLE ....
Days getting harder. We started to get punishment and myself
, I was a very not an outdoor girl. I never joined sports in my school except
for the gymnastic and it was indoor and I was the first to run away when it
comes to kawad selection and suddenly I chose to be here, the place that was
full of physical challenges. Few nights, after we got the punishments together
with the boys on square parade, we ladies got extra more once we got to our
accommodation by our lady seniors. Ended up with the next morning, we couldn’t
walk down the staircase the normal way. It was so pain on the legs that we had
to walk down either crawling or slowly like the 9months pregnant mother. I
didn’t do anything wrong ,but remember one for all, all for one.
Room inspection was one of the worst . Whenever we got the infos that the night wil be inspection by the seniors, we got freaked. The whole evening after the pt till 8 oclock we gave everything ourselves had to clean the cabin. But no matter how great u cleaned, you will never get excused from punishment. They definitely found something2 somewhere! They upside down the bed, ( katil ea bukan tilam) to see the dust under them, by the windows, by the most top of the room anywhere till we were always like, eh gila ar situ pun dia check gila ar dah lap nak mati pun ada jeee jumpa habuk! one fucked up, one punishment. Kena lagi.. haish nasib . The bedding sheets, if the book was not bounce back, means the bed wasnt in an excellent condition. They didnt want good, they wanted excellency .
Not included the CHANGE PARADE. The 'game' of you are given one minute, go back your cabin change to pt order ! then go back again! change to uniform! go back again , change to coverall! bla3, and usually yea ofcourse we would get the punishment u imagine, from parade square to our blocks even if u are hussein bolt, it already took half minute, ran to the third floors, already few seconds, find the clothes , put them all on, tukar tudung lagi! sometimes they were not prepared unironed, confirm mampus la kau kena, so by hook or by crook, confirm will get it punyaaa. They said ' MORE THAN ONE MINUTE ALREADY, FUMBLE ! FAIL !!!! OKAYYYY EVERYONE... FRONT SUPPORT POSITION DOWN !!!!'
8 to 5 class is this even school? I saw my friend in
universities updated in twitter that they didn’t have class, the first class of
the day will be at 3pm and why were we not like , that? Every morning we had to
iron the uniform and the black pants and clean the grass on our black shoes and
kiwi them. Everything became complicated to me included the uniforms that for
the ladies we the buttons were just ergh everytime we had to wash , to change
the uniform we had to take out the buttons and put them on again and again and
again. And they said that those white
uniforms had to be washed by dry cleaning method but who cares, we brushed them
in the toilet for hours and they still looked good so yeah no problem.
I started to have problem with my roommate. She was suddenly
changed she became afraid of everything, she sat alone, she spoke to herself,
she kept crying and I always asked her what happened but she never spoke out.
Everyone started to get worried because we knew there were something wrong
about her but she never told . I told her to be strong, suspected that she was
actually feel really down on all the challenges and I said that it was just for
some times, cz we just started but she kept silent. After days, I lost a
roommate when her parents brought her back home and she quit ALAM. We the
ladies were really upset thinking that haish one down .Hope for no more
afterwards. Until today, I am still wondering what was actually happen to her.
It wasn’t getting easier there. Exactly a month after we
reported to campus, me and another two lady mates did a huge mistake. We flied
out with some seniors and our lady seniors found it out. That night when they
called all of us for the punishments, I saw my friends did the punishment for
my mistake and I felt really bad. We got really hard in the room . The nags,
the squat jumps the all kind of jumps, the front support and all kind of
anything lah. Since then, I became more careful. Not in not doing wrong things,
but not to get caught. The lady seniors, I might hate them but to think back,
everything that they said were true. Every advises were useful , every lessons
were remembered , every punishments made us stronger physically, every nags and
curses made us stronger mentally.
Our daily routine were almost the same. Every juniors had to
go for morning pt (physical training) at 5.30 to 6 then had our breakfast ,
then went for colors in parade square, then we entered the class , short break
at 10 to 10:30 then a lunch break 12 to 2 and end of class at 5. After class,
we had to fall in again for evening pt (physical training) which usually people
would try the very best to skip. I didn’t like these at all. I excused myself
from boarding school for these reasons and look where I finally ended up at the
age of 18 ? A hostel or some boys said, prison.
It was pain, to bear with the punishments, sometimes we had to sleep late after the punishment to study for the tomorrow's LA, and I still remember a night before FINAL EXAM, we got kaw kaw hell on parade square. Apa lannncccc lah kan orang nak exam . And yeass! Another one big hell, a night before we went back for raya holiday, god I tell you we went home with paining legs, SELAMAT HARI RAYA lah sangat. the seniors that kept repeating the same bloody words' WE WANT TO TRAIN YOU TO BE PHYSICALLY, MENTALLY PREPARED BEFORE YOU GO ONBOARD SHIP! EVERYTHING WILL BE TOUGHER THAN THESE ! ' KAU NAIK KAPAL KAU TAU LA MACAM MANA HIDUP KAU !' ' KAU TAU TAK, ATAS KAPAL, MACAMNI MACAMTU ' ' KAU BUAT PERANGAI MACAM NI ATAS KAPAL KAU TAKKAN BOLEH SURVIVE! ' 'KORANG INGAT EA, ATAS KAPAL TAK ADA SAPE NAK TOLONG KAU! ' And so and so, tahla belum naik kapal so belum rasa lagi macam mana rasanya ohmygod I start to worry !!!!
27DECEMBER 2012 . TAKNAK NAIK SEM 2 NEXT WEEK!! TAKNAKKK!!!

PALAPES LAUT AKADEMI LAUT MALAYSIA IN KDSI1 !! 13/09/2012 01:57
ASSALAMMUALAIKUM! :) AND HYEEEE
This is so sad since I already wrote about this last month! But what happened was I dont have any idea where the hell are theposts! Saved in draft ofcourse tpi bila tengok balik, hilang sudah -,-
Here below are all about our training .We as Palapes kena pergi training ni sebagai salah satu keperluan kitorang ,Cadet pasukan latihan pegawai simpanan tentera laut. Kitorang students ALAM Akademi Laut Malaysia bukan nya TENTERA LAUT tau.... sangat bukan cuma yang ni , about 30 students of ALAM join this PALAPES unit macam korang join club2 kat sekolah dlu tu ha ... so I can say , we are cadet ALAM and part of Navy too :)
 |
| haa nampak gambar ni mesti ingat kitorang pergi sana macam best2 holiday2 kann haha read more to know what's hidden |
So we went Kolej Tentera Laut , KD Sultan Idris Lumut,Perak. Went there on 8th July sampai 20th kot.. Been there around 2 weeks under 'alpha training' it was the training for us as 'reserve officer training unit' (PALAPES) . We are semi navy la I can say. So our routine memang a bit pain la since there was totally regiment atau bahasa melayu dia emmm ha ketenteraan. Unlike ALAM ,how they conduct PALAPES kat ALAM boleh dikatakan agak light jika dibandingkan dengan training at NAVY base itself kat Lumut ni.beza jugakla.. So okay it was pain to face but the valuable experiences that we aimed for and I truely speaking that I gained much good values and not to be forgotten knee problem yang dari hari tu xbaik2 sampai sekarang .Well , the best fact about the training . the dining etiquette and.. the fact that whenever we go kitorang kena lari lari dan lari eventgh dekat, lari. All movemnet kena lari .Regardless u pakai baju apa kasut apa bawak apa, LARI TETAP LARI. but nothing can be the worst than, lari sepuluh round with heels and baju kurung,more than one time.. rasanya adalah dalam 3 4 kali jugak selama 2 minggu tu .-,- belum kira lari naik bukit dengan class beg and still with the heels.. pheww..arghhh that was damnly bad and sucks seriusly! pity the guys have to wait for us lari terkedek2 dengan kain and heels tu tapiiiii pity us more la! u guys try pakai kain pelekat and heels and run let's see how hero u guys can be ..kalau suruh korang pakai boot phua cu kang suruh lari pun belum tentu pass well hehe.
 |
| Lari2 kita lari... ~~~ this one after how many kilometers I cant recap tapi memang dah nak patah tulang kaki |
Then next is dining etiquette. See ea. when we have our meals, we even have to be sooooo sooo sooo proper tahap makan depan Queen Elizabeth. okay hold ur spoon, take it up parallel to ur mouth.. and perpendicularly, ha masuk mulut.. macam 'L' shape la. u gotto do that untuk setiap suap yang nak masuk mulut :) ..then ,please not even one sound of fork and spoon with the plate. Sat g, ha dudk bawah meja. Got some officers tu siap suruh stop makan, punishment first, then sambung makan balik. Good thing in their etiquette masa makan ni, the guys have to be damnly gentleman .. awhh haha untunglaaa.. kat ALAM korang nak gentleman?mmg xla.. boleh kira berapa kerat je among u guys ,my batchmates yg gentleman hahaha sorry to say la bro. tahap kena gentleman kat sana tu siap kalah tomcruise lagi hahaha. okay la they gotta learn too, mana la tau later bawak girlfriend g proper date ke tak tau mcm mne nk gntleman kan, ha there got chance to learn. sana, the guys have to seat beside the girls, tarikkan kerusi, cedokkan makanan la sepatutnya, do anything and everything, since the concept was ' kat sini, ladies diutamakan ' hahaha awhh3 owh tapi klau bab2 lain under training semua, ladies x ladies.. sama .Positive values gained. Atleast we know how to be so proper in dining especially later if we need to go any formal events.Second, how to appreciate the meal.Third.Respects other people ,ni certain people, kalau makan berbunyi2 capp2 n bising sangat -,-.
But yet! I still got funny things happened tiap kali time makan.My boyfriend always2 seat beside me dia xbg chance langsung lelaki lain especially from upnm tu nak tarik2 kerusi untuk kita hahahah xpe2 xbg chance xpe i dont mind also.. ha this what happened. Me and him xmakan sayur, xmakan ikan . So dalam satu meja ada 6 orang and the meals were served for six ada nasi dengan lauk2 semua la. kalau ikan ayam tu mmg dia bagi ngam2 6ketul . The problem was, makanan tu semua kena licin kalau x kena punish kena bising semua la .. when we both didnt take ikan n sayur, mmglah xboleh licin ! orang lain pun dah ambik their own part kan. So pandai2la nak licinkan apa cara sekalipun. Sekali dua kali I had to force myself telan jugak ikan2 tu brrr macam sayur, kesian those yg duduk dgn kitorang kena habiskan tapi kalau ikan tu mmg semua reject taknak tolong makan kan!But I think about 2times already guys from upnm helped me to eat those fish n sayur hehe...so one more..I used to do this . Sorok ikan bawah kulit telur masin and it worked! haha got one time tu ,this one I did for my byfrnd la..I lenyek2 ikan tu macam mashed potato sorok bawah tulang2 ayam yang dia dah makan. berhasil jugak tahniah to me as a smart girlfriend haha tapi yang paling xboleh bla nya.. Bau ikan yang telah dilenyek atas pinggan tu sungguh bluwekkkk hanyir gilaaaaaa sampai we both nk termuntah pulak! hahaha. Tapi kadang2 dia terlepas jugak sebb ckap dia alergic tpi kdg2 nak xnak, orang lain dengan berat hatinya kena makan kan ikan kitorang tu.. But poor Azmeer ada sekali tu, tried to hide the fish same like me bawah kulit telur masin then suddenly ada la rasanya tuan ke senior tu datang ' kau ingat aku xnampak bawah telur masin tu? kau habiskan sekarang' LOL sometimes in stress mood makan tu, we couldnt stop ourselves ketawa tutup mulut (maklumla kena senyap)

You talk, listen, and attack? 03/03/2012 01:16
Debating. : ) I remembered how I started to debate for competition. Well yea we debate everyday but how far we bring it to a more professional way eg competition . It was happened when I was in form 4. I ddnt know how it started but my teacher or my senior offer me to participate in the competition between schools level. I was firstly watch my seniors whch that is the way of you to start debate. Watch any match first. Then the day came after few week practise and believe it or not that was my first and last participated in debate in secondary school. And that first n last was actually brought a nice memory to me when I got the best speaker eventgh my team lost the match. Everything was still really clear until now evntgh it was already 3 years back. The motion was 'Attitude rather than aptitude is the key to success' and I was the first speaker .That time idk why but the malay speaker will always be the frst speaker. In everyone's mind that time, first speaker plays the most minor role in the team and Malay speakers, are usually not as good as other races. Believe me that was what happened. Then form 5, I supposed to join the annual competition represented my school but I chose to join drama because being on stage acting is one of the thing that I damn eager to do when I was at school. So I decided, I rejected the debate and try something new that was te english drama. Again, it was also still fresh in my thought.Me as the main role in the story really made me proud to be myself today. Sounds poser and loser but u wont know if u don't face it urself. The story was ' Beauty and the beast' about two siblings of princess. Ohmy I miss the team I miss the drama!!! : ( Wo trust me it was a great experience ! The practice, the crews, : )
Okay back to debate. So here in ALAM, I just joined debate society known as ETHOS DEBATE SOCIETY. It's not that I want to leave Toastmaster club but yea I prefer not to comment more about this . So that day I went to MIMET UNIKL perak and to have the friendly match there. It was such a good foundation for the new beginner like us. To move on ,we then went to International Novice Debating Competition at UITM Shah Alam. Totally a very good steps taken by us where there we could learn and improve so much things.4 days we were there and here the pictures : )

ONE DAY LEFT 10/07/2011/ 23:51
Today is 11th July 2011. I can't describe how do i feel right now. But one thing for sure, the tears are about to fall. One day left. Then I'll leave to ALAM. Hmm I still remember how can I get involved in this academy. It started when I had my study group with Daus at my house. It was before SPM. Then they said they want to apply ALAM. And I asked them apa tu?? tak pernah dengar.Then they explained some and they asked me to join. Ok la so I filled the online form walaupun tak tau sgt apebenda tu and isi form tu saje2 je.After t5he SPM, I was informed that I am selected to go for the interview and I was like ha??? owh okay haha. I told my parents then they said just go and test the market cheh.. dapat xdapat belakang cerita. yg penting pergi je dlu. So tibalah saat nya.
 | ||||||||||||||||
| the one xpki tudung depan skali is me |
Then based on the spm results few months later, barulah officially layak. I got offer of UITM in banking but I choose ALAM .
And now, one day left! I bought things already but I think there's lot left to bring. How will be my life there. I'm sure it gonna be hard and damn though! But this what I chose . A girl yg sangat lembik ni yg asyik sakit2 badan and so whatver hahaha masuk ALAM? even everybody never expected it! what to do? inilah yang dikatakan takdir dan kita sebagai manusia kena la faham konsep 'setiap perkara ada hikmahnya'. em apa hikmahnya. Mungkin disebbkan aku ni lembik and spoil brat yg xreti buat kerja2 rumah yg xreti nk lasak2 dicampak masuk sana so that i'll be stronger, more matured and know the truth of life. Mungkinlah mungkin. Dan mungkin la juga lagi sebulan baru dapat posting blog semula ok?

ALAM gave me a call 07/07/2011 09:37
I received a call yesterday. '' Hello bla3.. kami dari bla3.. awak kena daftar pada 13 July iaitu rabu minggu hadapan'' Ok supposedly it will be 24th but those who are sponsored by the mega sponsor that areA make their students to be more advance than others and be well prepared than others and so so. That's not the thing. The problem is I don't buy anything yet! but one week left. Ok , still able to do much things. Ok Yana.. ready enough or not? Ready! I even cut my hair : ) bye my long lovely hair : (
