And this is my 'MAMA', ya I'm closed to her after finish my training. Everybody in the camp so scared at her, because she's the one who is very strict to the trainer. I did told her and asked her before. I said, ' Mama, do you know that we scare of you?' She said; she knew it, but actually she'd not. She just pretending, hee macho. When i get close to her, I'd found out that she was a lovely person. She cared about me but I'm still scared that when she get mad. But she so nice, different to others. She so discipline, work time she will serious, duty off she's just like different person. I remember that every morning roll call, she will checked our uniform. Everybody just stand still to be checked by mama, everybody don't dare to move because when she get angry and she..... but for me, she so cool and nice. She care about me and she love me. Thanks for guiding me mama.

Now change topic to my grandpa and grandma 50th Golden Anniversary's on last year. We did prepared a lot of things to done this anniversary perfectly. I do the background and the hall decoration. My aunty was the programmer of the party. 50th anniversary, we were proud of them because not everybody can wait till this day? This picture we took after the blessing ceremony in the chapel. Grandpa and grandma so happy that we had done a greatest anniversary for them. That was a very sweet memory and unforgetable memory for them or us. We can see this couple had been through a lot of barriers. We were so proud to be their children, they touch us a lot and guide us. Even they have 16 grandchildren they love all of us and they always spend time with us. Especially my beloved lately grandpa, he always bring us to jogging. He said, 'we must always sports to stay in healthy'. I will remember what he said, I miss him so much. And the last word he said to me, 'April, study hard and don't waste your time'. I will do my best and show it to him that I can be a chef. He also told us don't ever give up in what we chasing on, try again and again and again till we can. When I saw this picture, I'll remember what he had told me and his smile in this picture is comforting me. Grandpa I miss you. 'God saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be. So He put His arms around you and whispered 'Come To Me', with tearful eyes we watched you and saw you passed away. Although we love you dearly, we could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating hardworking hands at rest. God broke our hearts to prove us...... He only takes the best'.

From the left: Angie,Pieqah, Lala,my 'IBU', me, Hilda, Lynda, Katy and Bai. This was my only one picture that i took with ibu. Ibu love us so much, and this were our last day in camp Shan Shui. We were sad and so happy at the same time because leaving the camp and we are going home. I remember that we do our decoration block till morning but ibu she cared about us and she cooked mee for us. She was a very gently and caring couch. Because she wiiling do the decoration with us till morning even she was sleepy. Till today I still contact with her, and i remember that I'd spin my leg when playing the netball she's the one who took care of me. I am so stubborn because my leg was swollen but I don't want go to the medic. Ibu forced me and asked my friend to carry me. I'm really shy at that time because I burden them. But at the same time ibu she scold me and she so worried about me. I can't forget that ibu took care of me in the camp and she loved me so much. I'm so lucky to have her as my ibu. I think she adopted me as her gril. Hee,, I think... Maybe???

My national service. This picture we took on the night of 'Citra Malam Puisi'. I'd been chosen to be host with my friends. We are came from different places and different races; Chinese, India and Malay. Our group been chosen to handle all along the night. We done it very well even had some technical problem. We did fixed it well. The other three group, they do their drama, singing and poem presentation. We as the host very nervous at that night and it was my first time to host in malay version. But they said we done it well, we were very proud. One of the group did very well and they deserved the first price because their drama very touching and meaningfull. And one of our member also get the first price to do her poem, she done it very seriously and she was very touching and she can cry out. We done our show about 11pm, then all of us back to our block. We were very silly at that time, we dancing around and playing around in the block and at last our couch we name her 'ibu' she get angry. We had a group name THE XP. I also don't know why they name it like that but it was my coolest memory in my life.

This was my last year when joining the national service at Kem Shan Shui, Tawau. It was fun and I did learn a lot and experience a lot. We went to the Jabatan Haiwan for a visit. We went to the clinic, to a place that they burn the animal that had died and we went to the cow farm too. We’ve been given some briefing before start our visitation. They ask a volunteer, then three of us went out. Guess what? They brought all of us to the cow farm. Then they gave the glove to us, and that they ask us to wash our hands. The doctor said, we going to check the cow whether it had baby or not. Then the doctor does his to check the cow first. Then my turn to check, first it was disgusting and all over my hand was cover by blood. But the cow feel nothing, I was scared to hurt it. I just do it gently and the cow don have a baby. But I’ve try it already and I experience it.

Our first day practical, it is very fun even though our group were in 10 person a group all of us want to do everything. Our cook was fish stock, our recipe was;

Butter, onion, celery, carrot, mushroom, bones from lean fish, lemon, bay leaf, peppercorns, parsley stems, whole clove.

When I help to do the simmering, I've been laughed by the others member because I was too short to look through the stockpot, they ask whether need to use a chair or not? It was funny, and we have waited for about 45 minutes, our stock was done and it was perfect. The other group does the brown stock, after they done we had their beef, even it was not tasted, but we still having it. After done the stock, we do our cleaning. Some of us need to stay back on our duty, we have a lot of fun but of course we learn cooked stock. After the class, we went to centre point and had a walk. We also went to the KBox, we sang out there. College life, I really enjoy it and I must do my best to prove that I can be chef even Im short.

I've learn bout fruits and vegetables. Ya, a lot of info that i never know before. Fruits and vegetables consist a lot of vitamins. We need vitamins in our body to maintain our health. Vitamins are classified according to how they absorbed and stored in the human body. Vitamins A, D, E and K are soluble in water. The body can store fat-soluble vitamins in the liver and fatty tissue. Vitamin A: there are several forms of this vitamin. The performed, or active, ones are retinol, retinoic acid, and retinyl esters. Vitamin A is essential to normal vision and to prevent night blindness. But it is also necessary for normal cell division and growth, the development of bones and teeth, and for the health of skin, mucous membranes and epithelial tissue. Its antioxidant properties help to prevent the cancer-causing cell damage inflicted by free radicals that are released when the body uses oxygen. It is also can help to prevent lung cancer. We can get vitamins A from orange and yellow fruits and vegetables, such as carrots, squash, and cantaloupes; leafy green vegetables. To keep our body maintain healthy we must take fruits and vegetables in our daily meal.

2006, at this year I was 15 years old. On the month of March, my mum did went to KK here for holiday. My brother and I stay at Lahad datu because of school. At this moment, my mum did call us, sha ask us whether we want a little brother or not. That time we was jst thinking about they gonna make a baby. So funny, but they tell us, we goin to adopt a baby. This baby's family cannot afford this coming baby, so they decided to do abortion. But my grandma said better give the baby to the others. Then they agree.
16th of August- The baby was born, and we decid to adopt from the hospital, but the baby's mum didn't know that we adopt the baby. It was a boy, and we name the baby Samuel. We love the child very much, now he just 3 years old. But last year, 2009, when the first week he go to school he get a sicknees call 'Kawasaki', so weird? He so suffer, the sicknees will lead to stroke or even death because it effect the hearts swollen. But he was a lucky boy, he very lucky, we did took him to the greatest doctor. Now he is well, he so active, so cute, he learn so fast. We love him very much, we thank God grant us this child.

Im from Lahad Datu,I just moved to KK here for study. I take Diplome in Culinary Arts + HND. Im not new here, I have family here, when holiday Ill be here with my grandparents for holiday. Why I take this course- Culinary Arts? Is not because I love to eat. Is not because of my family order. It is because of I like the feeling when somebody eat my food. I like to serve and Im ready for the challenge of my life. When I'd watched the tv show- AFC, Jamie Oliver did inspired me. He let me know bout food knowledge. About keep simple in our life but be healthy. Cooking also include our creativiti skill, is just not bout food taste but also the look of our food that can attract our customers. For me, my cooking must be creative, nice to look, but it must be a very healthy food. I have a grandmother that was stroke now, she fall down in front of my eyes, so from now on I want to take care of my family's diet. Since that incident,I decided to be a chef that cook healthy food for all the people. I'll success in oneday, Ill show it to my family that I can do it.

What i've learn this two days? This week was my first week to begin my college life. I have a lot of fun being know a lot of new friends. Since i step into the college, I have decided to be a good girl, pay attention in the class and try not to hurts the others feeling. I try my best to do that. Our lecturer had told us to do an assignment and we had a group. But we were facing a problem yesterday. But we try our best to avoid from quarreling. But I did learn a lesson from this situation. Sometimes we didn't know that we might hurts our friend's feeling. We should think twice before we talk. Just like my friend, he talk something that shouldn't be, that hurts one of our group member, they almost get into a quarrel. After the argument, we went home and I did text to the guy. I said to him, 'next time try to hear the other's opinion then our member will respect you'. In our lifestyle, if we did wrong we must say 'sorry'. If we respect the others then they will respect us too. Try to be rasional when doing something, listen to what they say, listen to the others opinion, then we will been respect.
