Vietnam

I just came back from Vietnam. I have spent a week there for Clinical Legal Education - CLE program. It was such a wonderful trip and I really enjoyed myself so much there, especially in Vinh. I met new friends and they are so great. I would like to share few pictures that I have taken throughout the 7-day-trip. I will never forget the sweet memory that I have, nor will I forget the persons that have planted deep inside my heart. I would like to see them all again, in the future.

Day 1:

The first day when we reached Vietnam National University of Hanoi.

Day 2:

We reached Vinh the next day after an overnight train ride. It was a good ride, I slept all the way for about 9 hours because I had not been slept the day before.

Day 3:
I started to meet new friends in Vinh and they are so nice. One of them is Manh. He is just like a best friend to me when I was in Vinh. I had taken picture with Uncle Ho, too.

The traffic there was so shocking. Motorcycles are everywhere. We had our city tour in Vinh by using about 15 motorcycles. It was really cool and Manh was my super driver!


Day 4: I was there partly as an observer for their program and they really did very well! Bravo! Bruce looks nice in that right!

Cute? Yes, I know so. This was during the night when the students in Vinh presented their lesson plans to us. They have a nice lecture hall, quite spacious. Manh done a great job in his presentation. He can speak well in Vietnamese. Manh, work hard in English! ^^

Day 5:

This was the last day and we departed from Vinh after our dinner. Seriously, I was sad during that time because it was time to leave all my dear friends in Vinh. And the time we will meet again is uncertain.

My last dinner in Vinh with some of the Vinh University students. There are Manh, Yen, and Van. Hien is from PLD and Ivy is from VNU, Ho Chi Minh.

I was being a little supportive. That night was the night when Malaysian team versus with Vietnamese team in Football during the Sea Games! I wore the red strip and it was given by Manh! After an overnight train again, we were back in Hanoi. It was very cold in Hanoi - I guess it was about 10 degree celcius.

Day 6:

That morning we went to shopping in the Old Quarter, Hanoi. We did shop a lot.

I really had good food that day! I had my own handmade spring roll - thanks to Huong!

That night we had another workshop with the students in Vietnam National University, Hanoi. They were great! That BIG picture was showing the items that I have bought! Cool!

We went to a special tea house after the workshop with the Hanoi students.

I learnt to use Yahoo Messenger so that I can keep in touch with the people in Vietnam. I don't see them using MSN Messenger. And know what, you can hardly surf the Facebook there!

Day 7:

I am back in Malaysia again. I miss people in Vinh and Hanoi.

Love

"Love is not two people gazing at each other, but two people looking ahead together in the same direction."

-Antoine de Saint-Exupery, the author of The Little Prince-

In Love?

Is that how you feel when you are in love? I am confused. It has been long since my last love. I need time to really recall how it should feel like when you are in love with someone. Am I really ready to face this second strike? Will I success? Will this really be the rest of my life?

*Thinking too much?*

Fly fly fly

Is time to fly fly fly again. Yes, I have one more week to be wisely utilised before flying back to Kuala Lumpur. I have no idea of how am I going to spend. Feel like nothing much to do after camp. Talking about the camp, I have been enjoying it much, really much. Not that I was one of the participants, nor a member of the committee. Seeing kids growing up, from the stage of participating to the stage where they can organize activities, has been a great one. This year, it is my pleasure to get known to another bunch of kids that really impressed me so much. I am so touched by their friendship bond and the commitment that they have tirelessly contributed to the camp.

I will be flying again few days after reaching KL, this year to Vietnam. I am not sure how much I can do, but I will try my very best to contribute to the programme - to help University of Vinh in its Clinical Legal Education Programme. This might be my last chance of going out in the name of Faculty of Law, University of Malaya. Thus, I will use this chance wisely, not to disappoint those who have given me this great opportunity.

There will be a week time before school reopen after my return from Vietnam. Still thinking of what to do. Going to plan something. Hope to enjoy some more before the next heavy semester comes!

Resting? Enjoying? Holidaying?

After months of being away from family and loved ones, I have once again back home. It has been almost a week since I reached my lovely hometown and everything seems to be so-so to me. It supposed to be a great resting time after months of lecture weeks followed by exam week. Nevertheless, something else was stuck in between my great time. Yes, it is the stupid assignment. I think this will be the worst assignment I have submitted so far. Not because that I am stupid or what, but the subject itself is already not an interesting one. Moreover, the topic is not something that I can understand. Even by applying the method of cut and paste, I have no idea if I have extract the correct parts. Is over, so it will be useless to think of it anymore.

I started off my home sweet home celebration with falling sick. I have not been feeling well since weeks ago. I knew that I was going to sit for examination, so I took good care of myself not to fall sick during exam week. Fortunately enough, with my strong determination, I have survived through the weeks. Talking about exam, I have only 2 papers to sit for this semester - International Humanitarian Law and Tourism Tourism Management. It took me about 2 weeks just for this 2 papers. Thus, in between I have time to rest and fool around. What have I done then? I have gone all the way from Kuala Lumpur to Terengganu and have 2 nights stay at my good friend's house. I received very warmth hospitality from the family. I appreciated that very much. I have a very relaxing time there. After this destination, I have only 2 more states to go to complete my All-States-in-Malaysia-Tours. Now, my next target will be either Perlis or Kelantan. Now I can understand what they have been saying about, the richest time in our life is when we are studying. This is the time when we can spend much! Again, thanks to PTPTN!
.

Initially, I have planned for a full month stay in Miri. I received a call the day before I departed back to Miri. It was from my Deputy Dean, Faculty of Law. She offered me to join another workshop in Vietnam this time. My reply was I needed to discuss with my family and I will give her the reply on the next day. Affirmatively, I am going to join this workshop. Another chance of exposure and enjoyment. I do hope that I will be able to help them in the workshop and at the same time be able to learn. Now, instead of 1 full month, I only left 2 weeks plus to spend in Miri. Quantity is not what's matter, it is the quality of time I have spent. To bear this in mind, is to appreciate the moment I have from time to time.
.

To end this, I would like to share a few pictures that I have taken on how I have spent my days before coming back to Miri. Enjoy!

These pictures were taken during the mission to save a bird. A bird has flown into my house to have its maggie mee lunch. Unfortunately it fell into a cockroach trap. So, both the good hearted room mates started off their mission to save the bird. Yes, it is saved!

These were taken during my room mate's birthday celebration. A surprise planned by his girlfriend with me being the conspiracy. How sweet to have a girlfriend!

I went to Terengganu - Kemaman. A very peaceful small town. I have my great time there.

We went to Sungai Chongkak to survey the place, how are we going to plan our upcoming Reunion activity there. It was a nice trip.

Finally, I have Andrew's and my birthday celebration together with my buddies. Let me count, I think it was my 5th celebration.
