English Club’s End of Year Party.

It seems that this is the final week of school for 2009. I started my Monday, joining the English Club party at about 2.00pm.

What else can I say, more food!! I think by the time I get home to Taiwan, I’ll be gaining extra kilos in weight. There were delicious food (spaghetti, barbequed chicken known as ‘satay’with spicy peanut gravy, chicken curry with bread, two big chocolate cakes, cheese tarts and the list went on).

I had a great time. And the crowd (the teachers and students) were really friendly and hungry too :). We had a great lunch.

Spring Cleaning at the Girls’ Hostel.

I got to spend my weekend (14th and 15th Nov 2009) at Girls’ Hostel in school. Here in Malaysia, spring cleaning is known as ‘gotong-royong’. It is a physical activity (quite fun but tiring) and a ritual practice among the students who stay in the hostel in order to practice good hygiene.

According to Sarah, the students practice ‘gotong-royong’ in order to make sure that the hostel will always be clean and to maintain the status of a ‘5 star’ hostel.

Sarah and her dorm mates started working early in the morning cleaning their dorms and the surrounding areas. I helped them out too (posing for the camera, most of the time)

Although it was tiring but it was satisfying when we could see that the areas we cleaned was finally neat and tidy.

Cooperative Club’s Party

On November 12th 2009, I attended a party held at the Mara Technology University.

Before I continue, let me explain what the school cooperative means. It means a business (something like a little shop opened in school) owned and controlled equally by the people (in school) who use its services or who work at it.






Shafiq and Shaik brought me along that afternoon. There were variety of food such as spaghetti, steamed rice, coleslaw, bread and butter pudding, cakes, fruits and mushroom soup to name a few.

I really love the bread and butter pudding because it was really creamy and delicious. Shafiq and Shaik let me try all the food until I thought my tummy was going to burst.

There was also a lucky draw and attendees got many prizes. A friend called Firdius tried to play prank on me with a knife!! Luckily, Shaik and Shafiq came to the rescue (Phew!).

After that, another guy named Hafiz Mubarak performed a magic show. That show amazed me. I enjoyed the event very much.

My turn at Nad's place

Today, I have to go to Nad’s house and I’m really happy because everyone in her family likes me especially her young little brother. His name is Umran.


That’s me and Nad.







Nad, Umran and me.
Umran sharing his candy.




Nad has shown me everything that she likes the most, like Tsubasa Cronicles, her fish and also love story comics (Oops…she is a very sensitive girl). Sometimes I can see her tears when she read the love story comic but I am shocked when she said that she loves horror movies and she can watch the horror movie until 2.00 am. I thought sensitive girl does not like scary movie but…she does.

Umran is very kind when he shares his candies with me. Even though he is naughty but he has a kind heart like Nad.

Oops…I almost forgot, Umran’s birthday is on 16 November 2009 and Nad has a big exam on 18 November until 8 December. She told me to pray for all SPM students so that they will do well in the exam.

When Nad told me about her SPM exam, I don’t have a clue about what it is. So I googled it and let me quote from Wikipedia.

“The Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM), or the Malaysian Certificate of Education, is a national examination taken by all fifth form students in Malaysia. The SPM is equivalent to the British GCSE, and provides the opportunity for Malaysians to continue their studies to pre-university level. The examination for SPM usually takes place around early November and lasts for more than 3 weeks.”

Whoa. That is a very important exam for all 5 Ibnu Sina students. Good luck to all of you...

I will miss you Nad…
