PAP 2008 - The hell for me at the first time

Recently, my school is organizing an event which is for the Chinese New Year 2008, which is called the PAP event, or in the full term - Pesta Angpou 2008.

In that time, I am a AJK or called as a member in the unit. By then, I don't know the reason, but everytime when there is a meeting, I failed to attend (they opened a meeting during I am having my class, or at the time we are going to enjoy our time, which is in Sunday).

By then, when I attended the meeting, my leader which is supposed to be arrived is not arriving. At the end I am the one being blamed by the leader just because that she is not atteneded. Hey, is that my work for that to ask she to arrive? If so, then why don't the leader of my gorup tells me that they have a meeting at that time?!

And then during the Star Search, which is the event they are going to find members, they set the location in a place that students hard to go, since I am hurrying for my assignment and also I have class at the later time, so I failed to go there since it takes a lot of time walking there, and even though there is no any information that they are helding the event as well as the location, even my schedule! When the time I am at other place, then the phone suddenly ringing and one of them tell me that I am on duty #$#$%%$^!#@...

Okay, forget at it, and then during the study week, most of us are going home since that Sabahans and Sarawakians live near to the location. By then after I am at my home for around 5 days, then suddenly, two messages appeared and with the first is the second gathering (I don't know when is the first one), and then is a meeting (again). I gives my justification on that I cannot go, and then just by a few days ago, they called me and told me that the leader have made a decision to expel me out, by giving a lot of chicken excuses.

They saying that my attendance are poor or something, the gathering I did not go (I don't even know that there is the first gathering) for both gatherings, meeting I got no rights to speak since they expect that they are all-mighty, and now they asked me to choose to stay or change. My reply: "Is there any more way for me to choose? It seems that all of these have been set and then just waiting for the time. Then now I am in the performers posistion...

Just like most of my friends say, the event is just making a shame for it, and for me, saying that I am being used by them for it, in the beginning on it I believe that I will try to do but I can't since there are tons of assignment I need to do, and I need to set my priority for my assignment. When I am now free and going to do it, then they are saying this to me. I felt that I am just a stupid person since my friends are right - they loves to misjudge someone just by the appearance, without knowing in the real reason.

Maybe I am wrong, but I don't think that the leaders on that are right. They should know why - I am not going to explain it, but I will surely that I will not helping on the unit further more for the event. I am totally dissapointed on them. Who is worse in their personality, they should know it though. I am not going to say or comment on them.

Darn it, the unit, my leader.

Study week, any sense?

I have stayed in University Malaysia Sabah for a few months, it seems that the life in university is far more different than what I have expected, but there are still some are the same thing as well.

Just at two weeks ago, around 10th of October, the school (get used to it, since I am more familiar to the word 'school' if compared to 'university') has commenced to have a 3 week's study week, which is until 26th of October (In fact it is just only 16 days), for us to prepare on our final exam.

At the same time, Hari Raya and Deepavali is just at the few days later, if I am right, 12th of October. It is normal that the Malays and Indians were going back to his/her hometown (kampong) to celebrate this festive season, but if they are going back, (same for Chinese), will they study?

The study week is just making for a relaxation since almost all of us are going back to our hometown, except for them who are coming abroad, especially Peninsula's student, since the air ticket are quite exorbitant for them to go home just for these 16 days.

After all, even though we are having our finals at 28th of October, but it takes around a month to deal with all of the final exams, why can't they just commence the exams to be set in the same time in most places, while we need to waste our time at our hostel, and just for study, in fact for myself, I can say that even though there is a gap before the next test, especially a week or somehow, I still will not study since for my personality, I am quite passive and I don't want to be forced to study since I will also forget it at the very last moment.

There are some will reject on my opinion that the final test commence at the same time during the festive season, or just after a few days at the festive season, so that we can handle all of our test before November and we can already enjoy our life at our hometown for the rest of the days till the next semester.

For me, it is quite wonderful to deal with the test earlier in order to enjoy life, so... how about you?
