Hiking + Cooking




yes...I went on hiking again.

Last week I went on hiking at FRIM, Kepong with my AIESEC friends...Anne, Gan, Simon, Seanz, Poh Doo and Bee Lin and my sis.

According to the online review and description, this place has got excellent view of KL city center from the tree top canopy.

This is how it looks like



But we were very very dissapointed to learn that I was closed for maintainance.... :-(

Anyway we still enjoyed the hike and the so called water fall.



After the tiring hike, all of us returned to my sis house and cooked for our get together. I made spagetti and sushi with Anne's help and our Mr Gan made us a half steamed and half baked cake. As my sis house is lack of utensil we ended up having to remove the cake from steming half way through to give way to my spagetti and baked it using microwave. Thank Gan for his effort .... :-)

The dinner was great and my sis house was sparkling clean...and all the food ate up, no left over.

thanks to Gan, Anne, Simon and Seanz...oh yes besides the food, it was great to have such a get together....managed to catch up with Ren Chang, Raja and Whitsney....though a little busy then preparing for my presentation on the following day.

2nd SAC = 2nd AIESEC internship

I am really tired now. I am exhausted after the packed up schedule week.

First I have 2 report of main project to submit and 2 other presentations on this very final week of the semester. And today I am in the SAC.

Oh yes I went for SAC for my 2nd internship under AIESEC. I know this may sound so crazy. I have just confirmed about this SAC on friday evening and I actually sat for it on saturday morning. I was rushing to complete the forms, wrote an essay for that and prepared my resume. So I only managed to get on bed at about 3am and woke up at at 7am.

It was scheduled to start at 9am but however we only managed to start at about 9.30am coz few of our panelists could not make it on time...Malaysian time right? well may be not....haha

Things has changed pretty much. Many protocols and red tape. We have all in 3 round. 1st is individual presentation on a current issue where I was given the topic on illegal and unethical abortion.

Then in the 2nd round, we have a group discussion on giving away free condom to prevent HIV/AIDS. Well personally, I didn't agreed to it in a whole. I believe free condom is not the best solution here considering that the majority cases of HIV/AIDS transmission in Malaysia is through the sharing of needle. So I believed that instead of preventing AIDS, we will ended up having more pre-maritial sex and illegal abbortion issue. There are many other steps that can be taken to prevent HIV/AIDS, such as sex education, creating awareness on HIV/AIDS, religious and etc.

Finally in the 3rd and also the last round, we had interview session. Many questions were thrown to us. As for me, most of them were about my past internship experience and my capability to adapt to a new culture and my role as an AIESEC and Malaysia ambassador.

Phey....finally I passed...such a relieve after a whole hectic week. Am looking forward to my internship but let's not day dream now...my final examination is up next week...

Here I wanna thank all my supportive family and friends...

World Food Day 2007


WORLD FOOD DAY 2007

Another day to celebrate about...16 October yearly

WAGGGS is celebrating World Food Day 2007 with Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). The theme this year is "The Right To Food".

Really hope that everyone can play a role here. Nothing much need to be done, just appreciate your food....every time you want to throw your food, just think about them


Besides that on World Food Day 2006, a cartoon-style story book entitled The Right to Food: A Window on the World and a companion Resource and Activity Guide were launched to educate young people and motivate them to join in the fight against hunger and malnutrition.

Do look into it! The book is available in six languages. If you would like to have a copy, please write to RTF-youth@fao.org.

Blog Action Day



On October 15th, bloggers around the web will unite to put a single important issue on everyone’s mind - the environment. Every blogger will post about the environment in their own way and relating to their own topic. The aim is to get everyone talking towards a better future.

Well what I have to say about this topic???

hmm...here it is!

During my school years, I have never like to sing our National Anthem and my school song....perhaps because we were actually made to sing them everyday during morning assembly. However there is one song which I loved so much and one which I still sing often.

It is the song by Zainal Abidin and title 'Hijau' (green in Engish). I believe all those who understand Bahasa Malaysia will understand its meaning....hope that all Malaysians would really appreciate this song and think twice on how your every action can change this world.

Let's practise 5R....Recycle, Reuse, Reduce, Rethink and Repair....this is the theme of the AIESEC UPM's Miracle Conference which I have organized and facilitated 2 years ago.

Let's enjoy HIJAU....GREEN
