Awana Trip with Buddies

We ahead to Awana Genting at 8am in the morning, even though only slept for an hour. The purpose is not for leisure, we went due to club commitment. We were invited to join our buddy - Wai Keen birthday celebration in Awana Genting. The accomodation was free, sponsored by his parents. We got free meal as well sponsored by parents too.

Excitingly, we departed from 1 utama, with a total of 10 buddies. Finally, we realised that task to handle buddies is not so easy, but is challenging. We need to have a good memory to remember all of their name, if not is hard for us to supervise them. They have strong curiosity, but one thing I admitted that actually they are quite well-disciplined unless there is something seemed attractive to them.

Looking at my steps on the field in front of the condo, I was in a calm mood. Mingles around with a bunch of cute buddies, sometimes I felt glad, sometimes I felt a bit irritated. This time, I went with my own emotional bandage. I can't fully pay attention to them, thus I am sorry for them. Luckily, Dream is with me. She brought a positive energy to me, be my listener for a time moment, helped me to handle buddies, and touched me with her message.

Each of the buddies have their own unique characteristic. Their special act toward you, is unexpected but you are grateful to them. For instance, my buddy hugged me and said I like you the most; one male buddy shared with me his cake; one female buddy asked me to go have dinner; and so and so.

A lot of reflection has done after this trip. I really have fun with them, and I wish I could do more. I wondered "how much I could really do for them?" I know my limit, sadly. But, I will do the best with my ability. I am glad that those buddies have their lovely parents who never give up on them. I hope that people with disabilities don't look down on themselves, and have to welcome life positively.

Yes, they did. They had inspired me. Not forgot to mention, the speech that Wai Keen made during his birthday is so heart-warming. Thanks to buddies' laughter and acoompanion. After this trip, my heart has lighten a bit. I felt I had recharged a bit.

Again, looking at my steps..how far I can go....

Full stop is not a Stop

My study has come to the full stop. After the submission of my final year project, I thought I will be delighted, yet I wasn't. I was apathetic. No more motivation to complete it, I already forgotten my achievement goals, I have given up. During the phase of life, I felt Life is just ain't about perfection. Imperfection in life is the essence of our growth. In order to grow, old proverb saying "no pain, no gain", it indeed applies to everyone of us. Being through thick and thin, sweat and tears, I started to realise that adaptation to sudden change is incredibly important. For instance, we have a goal to get a First Class Honour in our degree program, but our result speaks no to us. Is it show that we are stupid? Nope, it only tells us that it is a piece of paper which might granted us to obtain better job, yet which class you get is not the guarantee to get a better job. The end of college life, is the start of _______ life. People will fill in the blank themselves....

Spell or Hallucination

If you know a person, She claimed that "the maid put the spell on my family, at night a small boy will bite my foot, when I kick him away and I heard the sound of crying. Apart from that, she is mumbling at night. My daughter started to speak rudely to me, and did not call me as mother anymore. She moved back to her own house. My husband, he started to scold me in Malay, and also instructed the maid to beat grandsons. Everyone is sided the maid" No one is believing what she said. Her children claimed that she is just hallucination. She is just thinking too much because of her experience in stroke. After she got a stroke, things started to change. Her family did not treat her well. What is your advice? Is the maid put the spell on her family? Is she just thinking too much?

How to train your dragon (Movie)

If you said it is a waste to watch animation or cartoon in cinema, I will reject your idea. Firstly, most of the animation strongly project good moral ethics or values for the reference of audiences especially children. During the childhood, children ought to differentiate the right and the wrong distinctively, neither grey area nor in between. Value always serves as a guideline for us to oblige, not a compulsory because decision is still lied in the hand of human. This movie secretly intruded my deepen heart. It talked about relationship, a bond between dragon and human. The main character, Hiccup chose to save the night fury (dragon) because he saw the fear from its eye. Even a human, we got attracted or closer with people who are similar to us because we feel we able to understand each other better compared to differences. The flow of movie discussed the process of rejection, acceptance, understand and devotion in a relationship. When we are just a stranger for each other, we are re...
