Is this for real?

Hurm....for some reason, I feel like, I'm dreaming...about going to United State Of America..
I'm very happy and thank God for this oppurtunity but, its just, to g0od to be true...
I only got 9 A's in SPM...compared to other applicants that I think mostly got 10A's...
I'm not really active in co-curricular activity...During the interview, I was very sick..
Fever,cough,flu,sore throat...I even lost my voice...Very difficult for me to talk...
Each time I talked,I coughed....My english speaking was bad...really bad,I think...
Maybe my character made the interviewer liked me...I did made them laugh ^_^..
Afteer the interview, the moment I stepped out of the room, my first thought was 'Its over...There's NO WAY I'll get the scholarship..'

On 29th of May, when I was in the camp, I was having my lunch when a trainer called out loud my ID number..'A32!!!'
Mr.Azmi told me my parents came..I was like 'Huh?'
My Dad just smiled when I walked towards him, shook my hand and say 'Congratulations!'
I was like, 'huh?for what?'
My mom smiled and say 'you got the JPA scholarship'
I was like 'oh, okay..where?' c0z I remembered during the interview, when the interviewer asked me 'where do you want to go?' I simply answered 'I don't really care....anywhere...'
My dad said 'United State of America'...
I was speechless...I mean, after I walked out of the room, I never think about it again...Not even a bit of h0pe that I'll get it...

I really thank God for this...

At first, my mom wasn't agree about me going to continue my study abroad..even before I filled out the form..
But then she told me that my brother said to her 'Let her(me) go...this is an oppurtunity of a lifetime..there isn't any of our family, relatives that get any chance like this..'
Then,she decided to let me go....but only for a while..4 years to be exact..
I have less than 3 weeks here in my home country....My mom started to show that she don't want to be apart from..huhu..which makes me kinda sad..

I promise I'll try my best there.....I'll try to get rid of my 'lazyness' even though I know that will be tough..hehe..

I still haven't shop for new clothes...just bought a big bag...lots of stuff to think about...sigh..

United State Of America, here I come!

I'm loving it!^_^

After I got used to the life here in the camp, I'm starting to love it!I enjoyed almost every moment I spent in the camp...

First, I got LOTS of new friends..40-50 people, I think....especially trainee that are in the same company as me, Alpha...I love living in dormitory..In my dorm, there are 13 wirawati (girl trainee)...3 chinese, 10 malays...we're like, one big happy family..like sisters ^_^

The best about all of them is we like to have fun and make jokes!So, can you imagine how my dorm can be 'out of control' sometimes?And that's my dorm alone..For Alpha company, we have 3 dorms...sometimes, wirawati from other dorm come to my dorm....We share a lot of things together...especially food...If you opened a packet of potato chips, you'll only get a few....kinda sucks but I don't know why I love it...Sometimes, if we get hungry in the middle of the night, we'll ask our company's coach, Mr.Carlos to buy us food....Can you imagine we ate fried rice, tomyam noodles at 12-1 a.m, in darkness 'cause we have to switched off all lights on 12a.m?Haha...



I don't remember the date but we have watersports race...kayak to be exact..I represent my company for single-kayak..and guess what?I won!haha...I've played kayak only once before... It was quite far and since we kayak in the sea, I have to 'fight' against wave...On the way back, I was actually kinda stopped for a while 'cause I'm very tired..then I heard my friends cheer for me..'Come on Ainie!!Just a lil' bit more!!You can do it!!' I pushed myself to the limit...and I won!

Wuhuuu!!I was actually still not fully recovered from fever when I was doing this...Since that I won, I was selected to represent the camp for single-kayak...I was in the 'watersport team'..We have to do PT everyday...4 times a day to exact...On the first session, felt like I'm going to die..seriously..but after a few session, I started to like it and my body felt much healthier...

But then, bad news..the watersport was cancelled because of the lake that's going to be the venue of the race, has some sort of problem...damn it!huhu...alll that training for nothing...wait, not really..my body has become fitter for sure..


I also participated in sports..netball and futsal to be exact...the results were not very good...But what I can say is, we've done our best..I injured my right feet on the first netball match..It still hurts today, and it has been 2 weeks..weird..I'll ask my mom to massage it later..

On 30th of April, there was another competition...Obstacle Courses Competition....Each company has to choose 25 trainees,and I'm among the chosen one...we have to climb over wall, walk on swing board, monkey bar, tarzan swing, crawl under the spike-wire and crawl in a small tunnell...I passed all obstacle except for the tarzan swing..huhu..My hands already tired 'cause of the monkey bar...but Alpha wirawati got first place!Wuhuu!!I mean, all the pain I had on the next morning, its worth it..



I really love my life in the camp..there were lots of other activities that I've done but I'm too lazy to write all of them..haha...only the big events...



But, too bad..I have to signed out early out of the program...what?!huhu..

I got an offer of scholarship from the government to continue my studies abroad...Of course I'm very happy with it but I wished I could finished the National Service program..huhu...I won't have the chance to use the M 16 weapon, do survival in jungle, learn navigation by using map and compass...huhu...why do they planned all the great-adventerous activities on very last weeks?huhu...

just accept it....maybe I'll do all that in the future...



On my last day, it was so sad!All of my friends actually stopped me at the dormitory gate and said 'please don't leave,, Ainie'...they huged me, hold my hands...sang songs...All of us cried together..OMG..my tears started to appear right now..huhu..



I had so much fun there..I love all my friends there..Miss you guys so much!!huhu...

Not to mention all coaches that are close to me..Mr.Carlos, Mr.Amin, Ms.N....

Love you all to death!
