The New Life begins

I was on board around 945am at terminal 2, LCCT on 2nd May 2011. My dad, mom, eldest sis and even my grandmother come send me off to Taiwan.

My seat number, K44 (number 4 again!!) , was believed that it is not situated near the window as according to my sister. Suprisingly, when I'm on the plane, HAHAHA, it is situated beside the window!OMG! Lucky me! The guy sat infront of me and also another guy sat behind me are hot guys, I was hoping the person who are going to sit next to me for this 4 hours and 40 minutes flight to be a hot guy, BUT BUT BUT , errghh, forget about that guy who sat beside me during the flight. Total DISSAPOINTMENT ==




After an excitement view that I viewed from the window, I felt asleep. After around 4 hours plus, I've reached TaoYuan Airport a.k.a TaiPei Airport. The weather out there is a bit gloomy. But the view at TaiPei is very nice. When I get down from the plane, immediately went and check my passport. After that, walked all the way to get my luggage. When I reached the place where you collect your luggage, I thought I was too fast cause there is no one there. After I stood around 5 minutes, only I realise that I'm waiting at the wrong place LOL. My luggage is at another side LOL. So embarrasing >< I waited for around 5 or 6 rounds to finally get to see my old luggage. Thank God because at that time I thought my luggage was gone as I've waited there for more than 20 minutes but my luggage has not show up. At the very last minute I saw the blue luggage. SO HAPPY.

Next,I walk myself to the exit and I was looking for people from Hwa Yen Development Centre and Chia Tung University to come pick me up. I walk towards the left exit and I see no one. :( It freaks me out where I didn't see anyone come pick me up. But, I keep myself calm, and I went to get my SIM card in Taiwan. Listen to En Wan's advice, I bought Yuan Chuan number for NTD 350. erm, consider cheap I think. My number in Taiwan is quite nice. HAHA. :) The salesgirl is very nice too. She even asked me do I need to take a bus or cab or train when she sense that I'm lost. I told her that it's okay cause they will be someone to come pick me up but I didn't see them yet. So nice of her. Thanks ;D

Then, I went to the information counter and grab some brochures about Taiwan and also the map. Nice. It is available in Japanese, Mandarin, Korean and English languages. Now only I realised that there is another exit on my right hand side. I immediately take my luggage and walk very quickly towards there and YES! I saw Liu Lao Shi together with a male worker and also a guy from CTLC. Phew, I felt relieved after I saw them with the WELCOME CARD!:) We took pictures in the airport as a memory and I know the other two male's name which is Ah Jiu from CTLC and also Jian Ping from Hwa Yen. And so, I followed Liu Lao Shi and Jian Wei to the carpark and follow them back to Miaoli, where Hwa Yen Development Centre is located. :)

Jian Wei drove Liu Lao Shi's HyunDai car all the way on highway and I get to see a lot of building beside the highway. Culture shock 1 : All vehicles on the road have the number plate in Mandarin ! Culture shock 2 : more classy cars on the road as compare to Kuala Lumpur highway ;D

It took around 40 minutes to get to HsinChu if I'm not mistaken. Then another 40 minutes to reach MiaoLi. The petrol station here is speacial too. Unlike the one in Malaysia. But I didn't capture a photo on that so maybe next time only can show it :)When we about to reach Hwa Yen, Liu Lao Shi brought me to a supermarket to buy some stuffs like meal utensils and she paid on behalf of Hwa Yen. How nice is that??:) And she even bought me pearl bubble tea. Tasted awesome and totally different from Malaysia and it's a very bigggggggggg cup! Worthy!

Finally, after several uphills, we've reached Hwa Yen around 5.30pm where it is the dinner time for the students! I was brought to meet Chiu Zhu Ren before I sat together with the students and get my meal. The 1st student that I know was Hui Zhang - Xian Zheng. A very cute guy. I get to know around 4 guys that sat on the same table with me, that is Xian Zheng, Min Te, Cai Xing and Guo Liang. All of them are quite shy when they see me, and some of the guys say I look very cute!!!!Cai Xing heard of Malaysia before and he tried very hard to spell it in English, how lovely is that?:D

Dinner time ends and some students can help to clean up the place and also wash up the dishes. After that they will brush their teeth. Apparently they will brush their teeth after they had every meal.

Then, I was brought to my room. A very big dorm actually! And I have everything there. So nice, I think it's even nicer than my own room back to Malaysia. More photos are available at my facebook account.https://www.facebook.com/#!/media/set/?set=a.1778907996887.2095250.1365015413

On the very 1st day, of course I am more close to the girls because I live with them. I get to know all 14 girls name though I still mixed up some of their name or maybe take me very long time to recall their name cause is all chinese name. I even join them for their buddha class after each meal. And the one I get to join in during night class. 9pm is their sleeping time and I sleeps well because of tiredness.

So far this is for all, I will upload pictures of them on the next time I blog.

Memories for past 6 months

Sorry peeps, I've abandoned my blog long enough!!!Now I shall continue to update u guys !

After I was back from Singapore with my coursemates for a 4D3N trip, immediately I went to Project Management Department (PM) metting. I met my first Japanese friend over there - Tasuku Terao. Photos will be avaialble on my fb! Do check it out.

Tasuku was previously under my team. My team leader is Ravi - a future nutritionist and my boss is Mama Wei Lin, the Vice President of PM department. Tasuku spent his 6 weeks with us in AIESEC UKM. WE've went bowling and had lunch together. And we even went Malacca together with Wei Lin , Elicia ( the host) and also Jia Xien! Thanks for Jia Xien letting us to tag along the car for this trip :)

After that, I went back to UKM on early December to attend Pre-MyLDS. The full name for MyLDS is Malaysia Leadership Development Seminar. Attend the Pre-MyLDS is to ensure AIESEC member know more about AIESEC before we went for MyLDS which was held at UTM! That's an awesome university with trees and new building around. The air was fresh over there. This event that I attended lasted for about 6 days and I got to know many more people from different universities , and of course different courses. Law students seems to be only a few that is only from UKM itself - I'm the only one I think. LOL

My 2nd semester started at 20th Decemeber 2010. Right before Christmas , sad thing isn't it? but I skipped my 1st class on my 1st day, because on this day, I need to farewell for my ever first international friend - Tasuku. I cried like a baby at LCCT , which it became one of the thing that Tasuku always teased me after he went back to Japan. XD I'll miss you Tasuku and I'm sure we will have chance to meet each other again! :D

2nd semester in Law Faculty is hectic as usual. However, this semester I seems to be a bit lazy. Opps, it shall be more lazy. I didn't really read a full case for each law paper. And I screwed most of my mid term papers. Just hope that my 2nd semester result can maintain at least at 3.00 so that I manage to get my scholarship. God Bless :D

I had 4 PBL for this semester and I think that ILS was the best PBL that I've performed with my group members, Kar Man and the gang. I was in the same group with Kar Man as well in COntract PBL, where she and Afiqq(beloved KP) was the representatives lawyer from Malaysia Airline, whereas me and Farah was the representatives lawyer from The Boeing Company. Excited enough isn't it?

Now, flash back each event that I had gone through for these past6 months :)
1st, AIESEC-er had the christmas gathering at Mid Valley. I had my christmas + keat wah's birthday celebration on the christmas eve. :)

January , AIESEC had Alumni Pool Side party. It was awesome with the attendance of interns from Hong Kong ( Oiley), Pakistan (Raed), Russia ( Natalia), Mauritius ( Nawsheen). The other interns who absent from this are Gaukhar from Khazakstan which have not arrive to Malaysia at that time, Hend from Egypt , Raheel and Abdur from Pakistan :) These interns were really nice and was a helping hand for our launching of EYLN - Entrepreneurship and Youth - A Learning Network. :)

February, of course we celebrated our Chinese New Year!!!Whee~~~Had fun with the kids of course. My cousin sis Xin Yu got married 2 weeks after CNY! Congrats and must stay happy for the marriage until the end !:D

March - The most hectic month ever!! 4 PBL's at one time, assignments and presentations as well and not forgetting be part of the Organising Committee for EYLN 2011 :) However, my 1st uncle passed away on the middle of March. R.I.P Uncle. May u get a better life at the heaven .

April - The craziest and laziest month where I watched 6 movies during the exam gap !!:S geez, really really need God to help me on passing all my papers and get at least 3.00. And this is the month where I got to know I got selected to Taiwan Miaoli for an exchange for 6 weeks!
