A month of hectic life, I am kind of getting crazy and at the same time enjoying my life now. Late in the middle of night, I was being waken up by housemate and what I could here from my bed was that I've not done my housework(sweeping and mopping). It might be my hallucination, maybe.
Yes, a month has passed since I left Miri. I couldn't feel that fast pace. That's life to me now. Life goes on, it won't stop in order for you to take a breath, no, it doesn't. I've to admit that, from time to time, I am really struggling hard with a lot of things, which include studies, friendships, inner factors, surroundings, lifestyle as well as house matters. I've been trying hard then to be strong enough to face all the obstacles, hardships and difficulties that I've encountered. Needless to say, there are time when I really feel like giving up and take a good rest without taking into account the consequences. But, I've failed to do so. At the end, I didn't let go my life but continue to face it with courage.
A new semester will definitely be a hard time to me. It is like resetting the master reset in your mobile phone and then you have to restore back everything. I found out that most of the courses that I've registered for this semester are tougher than what I've expected. Again, I now facing it with a positive manner. Basically, I've signed up Criminal Law, Administrative Law, Constitutional Law, Family Law, Land Law, Clinical Legal Education and Insurance Law. Killing papers.
I've gone back to the prison again last saturday. Is like another sad trip as before. I've met with this Danny(which is not his real name). An juvenile inmate that has been serving a period of imprisonment. He has been found guilty under cupable homicide and under Penal Code he has to be imprisoned for a period of 10 to 20 years. Here the Penal Code says:
"Whosoever causes death by doing an act with the intention or casuing death, or with the intention of causing such bodily injury as is likely to cause death, or with the knowledge that he is likely by such act to cause death, commits the offence of cupable homicide"
He has been sentenced under that section 299. He comes from a break down family, and from what I've heard, he killed his stepfather. Trust me, is you have seen him, you will never think of getting away from him. He's such a nice looking guy, educated and good manner. Educated? Yes, he's currently doing his diploma program while serving in prison. Furthermore, he speaks better English than most of us even tough he's a Chinese. He never gives up his life though he's in the prison. Unlikely to say, now the Deputy Public Prosecutor has appealed to the higher court to charge him under murder. Murder is another act which is more serious than homcide under the law. And the punishment for murder under section 302 will be death and for juvenile more often than not, it will be whole life imprisonment. I just can't think of what will happen if DPP really success in their appeal against him.
I can just make a simple conclusion in my facing life. Take it with courage and ready to face any consuquences that might appear at all time.
