Hi, sorry for so long didn't post any article. Was busy preparing the Pesta Tanlung event. I was in charge of the flow of activities and the riddles. The feeling was like doing Chinese Society's event at high school. The different was more effort and responsible was needed to put in. Almost everyday meeting, discussion and also practice for choir. Haha.. Choir.. Yup.. After coming here I tried a lot of new stuff, such as basketball, squash, tennis and choir. Sound interesting? That is my way of releasing stress. Lol…

The experience of being vegetarian in my hostel was terrible experience… Is not that hard being a vegetarian, is just that the malays are carnivore, they can’t live if din eat meat for a meals… can see from their plate, all was meat and vegetables were just once in a blue moon, so unbalance diet…
The trouble for me is they put meat into the vegetable and cook together… I was so headache what to eat. In cafeteria B, even I asked them dun put meat inside my food, they just ignore it. But in another cafeteria, they did what I asked but they cooked till very oily and spicy… lol… How to be pure vegetarian?
I do feel guilty for can’t be a 100% vegetarian… I have no choice but to take out the meat and egg… and even the bread also added milk and margarine… What can I eat then? My mum told me that is okay, but I really wanna help my grandma and do some last thing for her…
So as conclusion, staying over there is either having gastric or increases my cholesterol level. Lol…
And at last is the 49 days the very last day of my vegetarian life... the hardest of all is not ur favourite food in front of u but u can’t eat but was at other people house u can’t control what they cook for u. And I can felt they treat me differently that why am I a vegetarian. Even at my grandma house they will ask: “oh, u can’t eat meat then what shall I cook for u?” “Do u wanna have a try of this, oops, u can’t eat huh..” what izit so weird being a vegetarian.
But after the 49 days, when I started to eat me I cant really used to it. Can felt the stomach cant digest the food well. Even now I still continue to be a partially vegetarian by eating egg and milk but reduce my intake of meat. Haha... maybe there is someone will laugh at me that dunno how to enjoy life but I, myself know better how to life healthier. Haiz, that is the result of study too much of bio... lol

A heart-attacking and shocking incident had happened to me, first time in my life (seems I had lots of new experience here, but I hoped it would be the last time also). Say also you wouldn’t believe, I had a Girl Admirer! But it was a common thing staying in hostel. Don’t know was lucky or unlucky, only second month over there, she picked me!
Staying in girl’s hostel, we would start calling each other “dear” or “darling” after being close and even sleep together during weekend’s night. Everything seems to be normal until she appear.
She started to approach my friend, saying that she was very lonely and have no friend. After hearing that, of course my friend would ask her to join us, but we never know we had drop into her trap. At first she was interested with my friend, Ivin, who was a really friendly person. But coincidently, she was busy and ignored her.
On the fourth night after knowing her, she came to my room (and she was different block from me) at 12 midnight. I was doing my homework, she sit by me on the same chair (that time I didn’t think too much). We started to chat about her past, she said she had three ex… (First was a short first love. Second, she refused to talk much about it. Third was a SHE! And she asked me whether wanted to be her FOURTH!!! OMG) She also talked condition to be her “boyfriend”, which later on only I found out she was describing me... She even requested to stay overnight with me that night but I felt something wrong and refused. I was thought much until my friend and me talking about it on the next day.
But the nightmare didn’t stop just like this. She followed us to eat, followed me everywhere except for class hours, until I don’t know where to hide. I don’t dare to go back to room and refused to answer her call or reply her sms. Avoiding wasn’t the best solution, my friends suggested telling her indirectly I had boyfriend. Plan went on by calling her out for lunch, we started to talk about my “boyfriend” and she just listened quietly. After that, she went back to her room and we thought thing had ended. Who knows, the next day, she came to my block and search for me. Coincidently, I was away. She asked all my friends she met where was I and of course they were on my side, they text me messages to beware of her. She brought her books planned to study with me but we were different streams. On the next day we were having tests, she was really going to drive me crazy.
She found out that I was kept avoiding her. Surprisingly, that night, I saw her sitting with other girls, chatting happily. Don’t know was she had changed her target. Anyway, it was good news for me and relieved from nightmare!
The whole process just happened for one week only. It happened too fast until I don’t know what was going on, unable to think clearly. After that only I realised I wasn’t the only victim. But still pity her, she would become a lesbian most probably because of her second boyfriend, hurt her until she hated guys.

I had joined my college student’s representative (known as JPP).I was hesitating whether I should join. I was neither a good leader nor a good speaker and I was totally no experience at all, not even a school prefect, and the main point was I had stage fright. Still hesitating, messages from Chin Xia and Jie Qi encouraged me just go for a try and gain some experiences. But I still had a bit regretted after submitting the form. It was a four day campaign, kind of similar to the politician election, pasting the posters at every corner of the campus. Even the motto also thought out by my friend. Haha, you might think what a nominees am I...
On the third night, were a scary and frightening night, a manifestoes and speech giving night! Help! Sitting in front of the stage, every one was staring at me. OMG! Being the last nominee, waiting for other twenty nominees one by one to give their speech, it would only make me feel more and more nervous. Why were they so steady and confident? “Don’t worry you can do it!” Breathing deep and keep drinking water to calm myself down. Oh no, that make me wanted to go to toilet and giving up. “No, I can’t do that! I don’t want to become the only nominees who quit last minutes, Tortoise!”
And the time came, it was my turn. Slowly walk to the front, looking at those friends who supporting me down there, and started my greeting. But I was stuck and was shaking terribly. Nervous and panic filled my brain. I keep forgetting my point and my tongue like had been tied into knot. My vision became blurs and the cloud of black was the only thing I could see (which was the students’ hair). Instead of becoming worse, I could speak better and end my speech before time out.
A relief from me, the first thing I could think of was~ I was very hungry! Haha... Three minutes speech, a valuable experience! Thank to my senior, Suresh, who had helped a lot in the process and friends who helped me and support me throughout the election!
Although didn’t win in the election but I still manage to become the AJK. Since that my life over there changed. Lots of meeting and activities for me, busy and tensions were all I had. Sometime I also missed my dinner to attend the meeting. This type of busy lifestyle makes me live to the maximum and most importantly, no time for homesick!

Staying in hostel was totally different from what I thought. The life here was tough without parents and close friends beside me. The first over here was really terrible. I cried of homesick and don’t dare to answer my parents phone calls. I scared that my tears would felt down uncontrollable after hearing their voice. It was so lonely and helpless. In this strange place, what was in my mind was hope to go home as soon as possible, wondering was it the right choice to come here. T.T
You never know that, Malay girls used to close all the windows, curtains and switched on a table lamp when sleeping. Every night I had to sleep in the hot, poor ventilation, lack of oxygen and bright room. I suffered just because they scared those “thing”. But this is their “lifestyle”, what can I do about it. Besides that, my roommates still were nice person.
The true meaning of racist was what I experience there. This could be seen during the election. Maybe Malay vote for Malay is very normal but how could they say Malay was not allowed to vote for Chinese. Sensitive topic…
Every one came from different background, place and believe, I faced lot of social problems. Sometime, I really can’t stand some one’s attitude, but still had to face them with smiling face, it was damm tiring. I really hoped I could go back high school life, together with my close friends
