World Hunger Relief 2008
Nearly 1 billion people around the world are faced with hunger and malnutrition.
Every six seconds a child dies from hunger somewhere in the world.
Hunger kills more people than AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis combined.
For approximately $1 a day, WFP can provide a meal to four children through its global school feeding program.
Your donation can make the difference between hunger and hope.

The Place I Like The Most
Yeah! The Place I Like The Most is still in Kuala Terengganu. This is the only time I enjoyed my life and I took many pictures that i am so into it. Basically, there are so many things are changing right there, construction of new building begin and people are changing also. But pictures would not lie and the pictures clearly show these nice view still remain at the same place and it is still exist. I gave 10 minutes for me to enjoy the view around my home yesterday, chilling breeze and what not present in this world. Yesterday was a lovely day where I found how good it is if I can stand in front of the main door watching birds fling here and there, see squirrels jumping here and there and TREES!!! These three things really make my brain clam down and enhance my knowledge towards nature rather than sitting in a kopitiam talking rubbish. Sometimes people are too busy with their life and work and hence they do missing out something that are so important and plays an important role in their life. What I want to mention at here is nature. Please do enjoy the pictures below which i think these are the lovely pictures.
Till here.

Annoyed Fellow
Finally, my one week holiday has started. This means that this is the time i can go back to my hometown. As usual, I took Firefly to go back home. If I got the chance, I will not choose FireFly again because it delayed my flight from evening until night. It is not so convenience at all. The journey starts here. Yeah, I reached at subang airport on time. I was afraid that the fellow will not allow me to check in because I am late for few minutes than i am suppose to. When everything goes OK, then I settled down and started to take my Reader Digest and read. The airport was filled by screaming of those little children. This is a good sign and this shows this is a place for human.
At 9pm, the flight has arrived at Subang Airport. I felt so unlucky because I have sitted with an annoying fellow as I mentioned above. This fellow has annoyed me throughout the whole journay. First of all, I put my stuff (bag and some foods) under the seat and then i started to read on magazine again. Then, an air stewardess came and she helped me to sit on reading light for me. Then, the stupid fellow took out his shoe and put his legs near to my DONUTS!!!!!! This is followed by, he switched off my reading light without asking me for promision. Please la! I got "hak" to read with the reading light on!!! I wanted to blast him with some words but then he is a lau ah pek then i was just keeping my emotion down. The time for selling food has came, another air stewardess (I was wondering wether she is the same people) came and on my reading light for me again. Guess what, fellow did not do the same thing. But this does not countinue for a longer time. After a while, he off mine and switched on his reading light. Si Lau ah pek! I wonder why he needs to on his but off mine since he is not reading anything. I cannot do anything but just stop my reading. At last, he did not say sorry to me at all! I hope not to see this fellow again.
Terengganu airport finally has its own "sambung thinggy" which means to those who take MAS OR AIRASIA can walk into the airport without using staircase anymore. But to those who using FireFly, we have to use staircase again!!! Second brother came to the airport to fetch me and he was asking wether i am hungry. I feel so stupid because i said i am not hungry. I should say, I am. Then, he will stop by at HOT-HOT to eat mamak food! I did not eat at here for thousand years! I remember, the fellow was schocked by me. Let's read through the conversation we had.
Fellow: Adik, mahu apa kari?
Me: Abang, ada tomato sos ka?
Fellow: Ada, Buat apa?
Me: Saya nak makan roti canai dengan sos tomato.
Fellow: @#%&*?!
Father: Dia selalu pun macam ni. Hari-hari kena makan tomato sos. Kalau tak, tak sedap!
I think this is the first time he heard about eating roti canai with tomato sos. Seriously, it tastes nice. But, some of my friends said i am crazy my tomato sos. Still remember one of friends, Zong Lin has asked me to bring along tomato sos wherever i go. This eating tradition has almost gone awasy from my life because i find it very expensive to buy tomato sos for such a big eater. My mom asked to reduce the amount of tomato sos, but I cannot make it since I have this habit since I was young.
Finally, I met my mak mui on the same day. I felt so happy to meet here at her house. She is like my another mother. I think I spent more to time to here compare to my mother. I know, this is bad sign. Eventhough, she is 50++ but we got no problem in age gap. We can talk non stop for the whole day and still questions are still emerging from my brain. So happy to see her again.
Still here.

Blood is donated
Yeah! This was the second time I donated my blood. Went to donate right after my Maths CT3. I went to Holiday Villa just for blood donation. I am the first one who reached there. When I reached there, I can spot nurses were eating at there where they are not suppose to do at this time as the blood donation starts at 9 but I reached there at 10am. Why they always cannot work on time and always go back earlier than they are suppose to do so! Well, I was excited troughout the blood donation. Everything goes well except for the blood testing for my blood density. Basically, it tests wether the your blood goes down or will float on the surface of the water. I was shocked because the doctor said I cannot donate my blood because I got not enough hamaeglobin. She tested twice weh!
Doctor: Adik, cannot la.
Me: Don't scare me, I came along just to donate my blood.
Doctor: Test again, Memang tak boleh lah.
Me: Shocked until cannot speak.
Doctor: Boleh la, lambat sikit saja.
I think my blood purposely make me scare only. Should be due to pressure I had throughout the weekend because of all the tests. The process continues, my blood flew super slow. It takes 30 minutes to fill in the whole blood. As I was running out of time, I keep genggam the kayu and makes my blood flows faster. As a result, my hand got a big blue black. This is predicted and the nurse told me do not press the wood too hard. After that, I got the chance to eat hotel's foods for free. But I was late for physics class, so cannot eat nice foods and enjoy at there. I grab anyhting that I could take. They gave me voucher for 50% discount for cakes. They say I have to wait until 11 am but the cake is not out yet. So, not managed to buy also. Sad sad and sad for me.
But still managed to go for physcis class at time also.
I received a news for my friends. My housemate's teacher's husband got denggi until his platelet's count left 6. This makes to stay in ICU. I was busying with her as I helped to find people who willing to donate their platelets to him. They even specified they want it from male. It makes more difficult for us to find it because not more people are willing to donate. I do not think denggi can be so complicated until today. It has changed my mindset towards denggi. Luckily, there were a lot of people that willing to donate his platelets. Now, the fellow has moved to normal ward. Thanks people. Life is crucial. Help as many people as you could in your life.
Quote a phrase from a show:
If poor/sick people cannot come out, we must go into and help them.

Doctor: Adik, cannot la.

Summit
Yeah! Today I went to Summit to see actors and actress who came from Hong Kong. I guess they are changing attention to Summit since They Kiss Again Promotion was held at there also. I think this is the first time Summit was crowded by so many people since this is a small place compared to other shopping malls. I was so exited for them. I said I would not scream for them but then when I saw CHAN HOE (read in cantonese) but then I broke my promise when I saw him smiling at the side. Managed to see all the actors and two actress which are Dai Bao, Chan Hoe, Dai Kai and One other fellow.
Can you spot an actor on the picture above this? Yeah! He is Dai Bao.
This is the only photo that I got. This is due to the bad technique of using camera. They should walked slower, then I will be able to get a better resoultion of photosssssss.
After saw them, my cousins and I were running like crazy to the highest floor in order to get a good view eventhough the chance of getting it is like zero. But we tried, and failed to achieve it. They gave up but I was not. Wanted to search some new places but they went to lunch and I followed them. By the time we finished our luncd, the show was end. No harapan and wasted my time just like this. Went for window shopping and went back. ]
By the way, I felt glad because I managed to see them for 2 minutes.
One Year Later
The title of this post clearly indicates that my feeling because i went to a place that i went one year before this. The place i went is Stadium Putra, Bukit Jalil. This time is to watch High School Musical. First of all, I said yes to my "kuku" because I thought it was a show in a cinema, but then it was not. Rather we got to travel for 20 minutes in order to reach there. Second, the seat is not cheap, it cost 100++ bucks per seat after 25% discount. The price of the seat does not really worth the place where i sat. This is because we sat at the highest and this made some of us got fobia in height. After we reached the place where we supposed to be there, none of us do not dare to look in front where our buttocks were facing infront. I was wondering how much they charged for the lowest sit? 500 bucks? OMG! Then the felling relieved bit by bit. Overall, the show was awesome. The thing that has helped the show become nicer was their sound system. It really brings us into the feeling.
What have attracted me throughout the show was how they present their show. From the show, I can see they really work hard for it. Well, I will focus more on how they skate. This has reminded me about 3 years back where i was with a bunch of friends, we went to sunway. We were so gila with ice skating and that time was the first time for me.
Others: I think we will skate for 2 hours.
Me: Not enough la, at 4 hours.
I have not predicted that i am the one who came out first because i fell down for so many times until I don't even can stand up properly. Sampai, ada people papah aku dengan muka yang sedang sweating. Recall back, how was I sweating in a cold place? Funny!
Yeah! this is how they make me admire them so much because they can skate until so good eventhogh one of the skaters was almost fall down. Overall, the show was so nice.
One funny event has happened in the show. It is not about the dancers but was about people around us that tried to scream in different pitchs. First of all, my cousin brother was trying to scream and he uses his hands which acts as wisel. This is followed by an old fellow which scream with a lower pitch. I think he was just try to follow by cousin brother's trend but he failed. Lastly, a child scream with a super high pitch. I was laughing non stop just because of this.
Not to mention their food. I think they waited for this oppurtunity for a long time. They sell a bucket of popcorn at rm35. We got no choice and we were staring at the price for a while because we were wandering what the popcorn made of? Made out of gold??? But still, there are people who still buying such costly popcorn, maybe they want to keep the high school musical paper as their souvenir. What we had at there can be considered as cheap food! Yeah, burger ayam, kacang putih and jagung. and it does not exit 20 bucks for 4 person.
It is sad to say bye bye at 10o'clock and the show only last for 90 minutes. I thought it should be very long night to me as they always make until 12++. I got no choice but to say bye bye to the place and lovely people there.
Thanks for giving a chance to me to watch this show. Thanks.

Dying Week
The title mentioned above clearly describe what i went through. Basically, nothing special happened within this week except i have to go through some sort of dying week: Maths CT 3, Maths Mini Project, and Physics CT3. The "most enjoyable" subjects are all cramped in a week before we are going to have our one week holiday. The weekend before this was a stressful week where I got no idea where should i start from.
Let's start from Maths Mini Project first,
My group consists of 4 members, Adeline, Erik, Kung Lung and ME. This Mini Project is continuos for four days where we have to work togther as a group for 3 days and the remaining day is individual work. The first 3 days were not so OK and the last day was not the worst day in my life. Some events have annoyed throughout this mini project which there was/were people doing nothing and tried to kacau us when the mini project. I hope he/she knows that this project is counted in our internal. He/she look like he/she does not care about it anymore. I think he should not come here and wasting his'/her parents money and time.
Let's change your topic to Physics Common Test 3,
Erm, this day was the worst day ever in my physic test. The questions created by the teachers were like crazy! So many unknowns are given to us, and we are being fooled by the questions for almost 20 minutes. I am running out of time when i have figured out how to start the question. How kesian i am! I've expecetd the marks that i will get in this upcoming week.
Finally, the day has come.... Maths CT3
The thing that drove me crazy was the formula sheet. Basically, we write some formulas onto a paper. But then, mine was different from others. Yeah! I have included something that I think it is super important in answering questions especially in explaining. Overall, the questions were ok but still not that OK. I hope the marks will be in OK range.
Till here.

Charity Carnival
Yesterday was Charity Carnival organized by South Australia Matriculation programme. It was held once a year. Every class has to participate in the charity but our class just simply refused to do it. This is because i do not wanted at all and none of them were giving suggestions, seems like they do not care or cooperate at all. My mentor said he is more concern about our academic, hence we just follow his advice.
No pictures were taken for the charity carnival.
Let me describe a little what had happened during the charity carnival.
Morning, spent some time on my ESL presentation. Then, went to college to buy foodsss and support them. YEAH, bought homemade karipap from my cousin sister. Nice but improvements can be done. Then, meet my friend and enjoy the charity carnival together. I saw many of my classmates were at there also. There were many stalls and basically they sell foods, play games. i did not enjoy because I was under stress and one of the presentors of the day. So unlucky but still lucky than others who need to present and exam at the same day. There is haunted house. I beg some of my friends still remember haunted house rite? Enjoy that one lots, from production of tickets to acts as ghosts, it is a long way but enjoy and earned a lot of money. Ohya, they have stalls for J CO, Haegen Dass and whatnot. Others were not too bad, they were selling nasi lemak, curry mee, donuts, ice-cream, fried rice, keropok and lots more.
Finally, I went back to my place apartment with lots of foods and enjoy myself there.

Above are the results.
Yeah finally my school has won the first place for the 14th Malaysian Secondary School Marching Band. Finally, they made it. By this, they are entitled to enter Kuala Lumpur World Marching Band Competition. Swadaya-ians, keep your hard work countinue and it will be found out if you really have the ability.
For the past few years, some participants from other states have been talking bad things to us.
They even mention, "Terengganu, balik makan keropok". Now, we are as how we are. But few years later, we won them. We got more in terms of discipline and would not call people such sentence as i mentioned above and other super rude sentences that i do not even want to mention here.
Yeah, i can see more and more improvements from swadaya-ians. I think the next target would be Kuala Lumpur World Marching Band Competition. Guys, pratice smarter and harder, listen more and absorb more that are important. "This is for your own good".
By the way, I do not even made my way there due to some unpreventable reasons. But all the excitements are still here and i was feeling like i am the participants too or i've been excited to the excitaton level and i believe that i've return to the ground state. I remember i was one of the supporters for my school. I shouted like crazy and i think i was crazy. For the upcoming years, i think i would be sitting down quitely and watch the show till the end.
Photo time (I got no photos for this year yet) I will uploading it soon.
Old photos perhaps?
Till here.
Will be smiling while sleeping.

Super Size Me
1 year before this, i think i might watching "Super Size Me" video prepared by teacher. But 1 year later, i am seeing other people doing the same thing as i did. "Super Size Me" really reminds me about my ex-classmates where we were watching, laughing and eating tit-bits at the same time where the tit-bits were prepared by the teacher too. (Imaging the teacher). I will be super-sized after seeing people got super-sized themselves.
Today, we got the chance to watch another video untitle "Two weeks notice" but we do not have the time to watch until the end. Hopefully, teacher will arrange us some time to finish the entire movie. I am quite into the movie where the actors always keep my eye on them. A rough summary that i could give is a girl who ia also a lawyer protest the development of the particular place. She uses all sorts of method just to stop the development. Then, she works with the developer which "smart" because he cannot even make up his mind about what he wants to wear in an occassion. I wonder how the fellow made up his mind before the girl came.
Hopefully, the girl has the chance to change his mind set.
Developers always think about money, money and money?
Don't they think about the nature. I hope they can develop the particular place until the certain extent where the beauty of the place still keep conserve.
Feel like going to Ba Kelalan end of this year. Can help them plant apples teach them.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tomorrow is the day for all the participants who represent their state and they are competing in national band competition. National competition will be held at stadium merdeka at 7.30pm. Of course, my ex-secondary school is one them. Them practice for 8 months, standing under the sun, blow the instrument until the got uncountable ulcers, their hands keluar buih, sore throat and all sorts of problems until kebajikan needs to prepare all sorts of remedies to avoid unwanted stuff. the day has come, please do your best and show them all your abilities and them takut. Swadaya-ians, all the best to you. I am still hoping that i can fly there just to see your show. It really reminds me about the day where i went to comp. Masa yang gementar + happy dan banyak perasaan sudah bercampur aduk. I heard that, you guys are staying in hotel. It sounds nice and i just had it once. Other people have high expectations from all of you especially out teacher, ms. teo always belebel us without fail. but, i know this is for our own good. Lat but not least, ex-members. i think tomorrow there should be a lot of ex-members that will be there to support you guys.

Once again, wish luck to you guys.

Cat's in the cradle
My child arrived just the other day
he came to the world in the usual way-
But there were plannes to catch and bills to pay

and the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
Little biy blue and the man in the moon

but we'll get together then-
you know we'll have a good time then
My son turned 10 just the other day
he said, Thanks for the ball, Dd, com'0n let's play
Can you teach me to throw?
I said not today, I got a lot to go
He said, That's okay
and he wlked away but his smile never dimmed
it said I'm gonna be like him, yeah
you know I'm gonna be like him
and the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoom
Little boy blue and the man in the moon
when you comin' home, Dad
I don't know when
But we'll get together then-
you know we'll have a good time then
Well he came home from college just the other day
so much like a man I just had to say
Son, I'm proud of you, can you sit for awhile
He shook his head and said with a smile-
what 'd really like, Dad, is to borrow the car keys
see you later, can I have them please
When you comin hime, Son?
I don't know when
but we'll get together then
you know we'll have a good time then
I've long since retired, my son;s moved away
I called him up just the other day

He said, I'd love to, Dad- if I can find the time

Little boy blue and the man in the moon

--Sandy & Harry Chapin--
It reveals me that most of the young people do not have spend enough their good time together with the family members. I totally can feel the feelings because i did not spend enough time with my family members. But, i hope i would not turn into his son's characteristic where he became into his father characteristic.
Text Prodution is coming soon. and i am preparing to die.

what has happened?
What has happened to band's state competition in kedah? Results obtained from voteband were very suprise me. They sapu all the prizes offered. Everything that has happened in year 2005 will be repeated in this year again. How could this be? I feel so sad for Keat Hwa's band members. Anyway, the judges had selected this team might because of they have the "ability to perform better" than other competitors. Hence, we have to accept the fact that, they have won and they are representing their state for the national level of band competition. I feel so excited to see what they want to perform and what they can perform to us in stadium merdeka on 30th july. Really cannot wait to see the brand new of them! This situation really recalls me 3 years back, the nationl competition was held in penang and that was the first time college representing their state in national level. This time round is their second time. I really want to see what they have changed in three years time.
Finally, they have delayed the time for competition. (I might have the time to have a visit there) To CHWS's band members, grab your good time together with sirs and practice as much as you'll can. Do the best and you'll would not regret. 20 days to go, add oil man!!! To shua a.k.a. my monyet, i really hope that you can come to kl and watch the national competition together gather. We shall meet togther and i think the only time we can meet each other is in this time.
Last year, i became supporter of my school and not to forget a bunch of people who are born as swadaya-ians and chws student. We were so crazy, screamed here and there until i got to drink few cups of honey. But i think, the screaming was worth it, because they really obtained a good achievement not only for themselves but for our school reputation also. I hereby, wish you'll the best and do expect something from yourself and with this you can make it even better.

Leaving
Neither everyone is leaving to overseas nor they are leaving to somewhere to countinue studies but they are leaving us to origin where they have to start everything again. It sounds familiar right?
SAM just started for 3 months but my fellow classmates are decreasing from 34 to 28. What a great programme rite, so many people quit. Today one of my classmates left us and go for ICPU because of her dad. This is because her dad thinks ICPU might be easier for her and there is no express class and hence it might be easier for her to cope with. Others left and go to sunway or take rest. My physics teacher says that, there might be a quite a number of people that will be sent home after mid year.
Yesterday, i got back my chemistry paper and my chemistry suddenly asked us a question: Why we need to talk exams?
According to his's professor: We want to filter out the stupid one.
This sentence is first mentioned by his professor's professor. He is a quite straight forward people because he talks a super straight forward such as the sentence i mentioned above. But, a straight people is always better than people that may be good to be in a second but they might turn into other devils in another second. There are many such people in my class. Everyone is kiasu and kiasi. They would not teach you and would not help do things such as photostating. I even go to photostat and pick it up at the centre everyday. Fine to these such people!!! I feel like i do not stand even a small thing for staying there. The only one fellow that is reliable becomes unrealible. Eveything is changing.
Darma, you are wrong, they still do bad things at me.
By the way, my friend who left us get to hug her love ones while the fellow opposite sex from her do not know that she likes her. I feel so great for her at least she has done something that she wanted so much.
Band National competition is coming soon and i think i am not going there as i am having exams on that time. A week after that, there is nother competition (asq 2008). Please support Danny which comes from the same state and secondary school as me. I hereby hope he can make it until final. All the best.

2008 national competition.
since the time has come for 2008 National Band Competition, i hereby wish everyone luck and obviously, more proportion will be given to SWADAYA-IANS since i was one of the member also. It is neither a short nor a long time since i have left them almost 1 and a half years. But the worst thing is i did not go back there almost a year. (miss them so much but so sad, no time to go back). Hence i got no idea at all, what is happening in my band and this makes me could not catch up with them. I wish and hope i can go to their competition as their supporter again but the sad thing arises again because my mid term is coincidence with the band competition.
There is a mixture of unpredictable feelings came down when i see thepicture below. We stood under the sun together for three days in a week until got sunburn, we stood in the mid when monsoon, we sweat no matter how, we got punished together, we go for trip together, we smile and laugh together and the most important thing is we put our heart together in our band for at least 5 years. AND this is how we are.
Many parents do not support us at all because they think we are doing the incorrect things and it may interrupt in other way such as in academic. Sometimes, I do support this statement (i means when i was junior) but my mind set has changed when i became a senoir. I learnt how to work as a team member. Band is like a small community, everyone has to cooperate together and this is the only it works. Vice versa, band will not be formed if there is only one member in that.

Please practice smartly. As your ex-kebajikan, i would like to mention please take care of your health because this period of time is the most important period for you guys. You guys have been practising for at least 7 months just for this competition, and i think you guys do not want to waste your seven months just like that. This competition only gives only 11 minutes to show off, if you wasted the time that means this is another gone case.
Hereby, i want to say i am glad that i was one part of swadaya because not everyone has the chance to be a band member. Eventhough, this is the most difficult time to be passed through but you think you can means you can do it no matter how many obstacles you have to go through.
ONE BAND, ONE SOUND, ONE FAMILY. AND GOOD LUCK TO SWADAYA-IANS.

royal belum temenggur trip.
finally i made i way there. It was super trip accompied by other excellent 13 students. Royal belum is located somewhere around between the border of kelantan and perak. we took 4 hours to reach there. the journey was boring as we don't even recognise who is in our van. As a result, our van was super "diam". But, i get to know one of them who likes to read national geographic magazine as me. His ambition is to be a photographer but i wonder why he is taking SAM (bioscience class).
Let me explain what i did in three days time:
Day 1:
we reached there about 11o'clock on the morning. i thought we are going stay in good chalet because they charged us 550 bucks for the trip but my physics teacher said we are going to stay in a campsite. Omg, it was second time staying in a campsite, cannot imagine it. the weather was super hot. the funniest i ever done. guess what happened? i fell down three times in a day due to the slippery down. First, fell down at jeti because the sand there too lembut. 2nd at waterfall because i wanted to soak my leg in ice water, but i fell again in the water, whole thing got wet nothing left. 3rd time, fell when i want to get in the boat. OMg, i think i have faith in falling down in royal belum. i am required to hike the mountain in order to reach to the waterfall, baru sampai kena buat kerja macam ni. haiz. the waterfall there was wonderful and i was accomponied by nice lunch there. i didn't aspect good meal but i got the one better than what i imagined. then, we went hiking again to see obeservation tower where all the researchers stay there and salt lick. In order to get there, i have to cross a swing beridge. Belief me, it was really swinging. guess what, my physics teacher lick sulfur into his mouth but i told him to smell. Then, i told me to bring some back to our campsite for snake prevention. then, we were waiting for the wether to turn better because it was too hot. when the time came, we went back to our campsite but it rains in the way back. eventhough, my boat has roof but the rain come for front and it equals to nothing. By the way, it means that my belongings become wet and my magazines got wet. it took us more than one hour to reach the campsite, can you ever imagine how big is the lake is? do nothing at night because our programme was cancelled because it was raining and our group is too big so it is suitable for animal tracking.
jetty.
our member.
view from banding island's jetty.
nice waterfall but tired of hiking.
fishes.
observation tower.
Obviously, it is not my leg but i got 9 bites from lichers.
Fear-factoring.Day 2: Went for jungle trekking for 6 and half hours.
could you imagine trekking for 6 and half hours? i really had fun as environment there was super good and trek with a bunch of people whose have the same mission as i am. first, when we reached there, we actually saw a fresh elephant dung. Mr neal a.k.a. activist has actually called us to hold it and no ones actually does that. But since we have paid for that trip, so just do whatever crazy there and i actually hold it. It smells like nothing because elephants are vegetarian. A few steps after that, we saw tiger footprint. There were a lot of "obstacles" for me when i was trekking... uphills ,downhills and so on. actually i found out that there are many natural resources that can be used in daily life in "jungle". to cut the story short, we reached there after few hours later but we do not "yuan" with rafflesia because the rafflesia was partially dead. I almost fall down from the mountain twice. Kalau aku jatuh, matilah aku. Luckily there are gentleman who have helped me from dropping off. Camera can be a disturbance when you go for hiking especially you are wearing pants without pockets. The way went back to the jectty was much easier then because we were using other way. My energy have been used up when the way going up. So, we took a rest in the middle the way of waterfall and jungle. Water keep flowing around my leg and this actually enhanced my energy i had. Had a good lunch: ikan, ikan masin, ayam, sayur and fruit and the most important one is rice. Nothing much happened at evening, we wanted to go to orang asli settlement because our programme was ruined by heavy rain and we started distributing food and baju into packets. By that time, i get to know new friends from other class and we played games together. Finally, we end that day by watching some video clips about how to conserve this world and trip is Ba Kelalan which is located in Sarawak and almost border to Kalimantan. I plan to go there late on this year.
elephant dung, can you see there is a small plant grow on the dung?

Dont care ed, just step on it.
before it turns into rafflesia, it is a cabbage.
gooddy bags for orang asli.
my physics teacher with his sarong.Day 3:
It is time to go back to reality. By the way, we stopped at orang asli settlement as we planned earlier. There were many rules and regulation to be followed when you are talking to them:
1: do not ask questions that require them to think because they will get angry easily.
2: cannot laugh.
3: cannot simply take picture. (they want $$ from you)
then, we visited them and passed some nesscery stuffs to them. then, we played (sumpit). this is one of their so called machine for them when they want to hunt animals. Say sayonara.
i played this, but there is no evidence for that.
the dog is being tied up because of its hyperactiveness.
last shot.
I feel so depressed when we were on the way back to jetty because i feel like i cannot stay here any longer. I wish i can stay there for longer time eventhough there has no much facilities. we have not generate electricity by using generator, lack of water or even they have that one might be like ice water. I like the place there so much except for trekking. I wish i could go there again and i hope my next destination is in Ba Kelalan with a bunch of people who have the same mission as i am.
I took two weeks to write this post. Finally it is done.
photos were taken by steven a.k.a our photographer.
