Another day in paradise!

well! that sounds appealing, isn't it? well, an entry about the language camp? erm.....here goes. i would like to talk about the last class on what are the qualities that facie should possess? before that, thank you very much for putting my suggestion to be among the unpopular trait! Actually, what i mean by being assertive is not the one like stern, strict, hot-tempered, fuming mad or something. In bahasa we call it "berpendirian teguh". you are holding on firmly on what you think is true. You being assertive until nobody can shake you. i say assertive because that was what happened to me in the Sekakap camp A. because of a lot of uncertainties i was trapped in an insecure condition that i hardly make an appropriate decision that ended up showing my ineffciency and what i call it as poor,pity and sooo...unprofessional! I was not better but a weak and vulnerable than a weak and vulnerable jelly fish stranded that you can find on the sea-shore. I was in-charge of the Sembahyang and imam for the camp which i assertively say i was succesfully proved that i failed to fulfill my obligation. :P. You see i was not the leader of the prayer and it would be your wonderful dream to see the participants pray together in the mosque. Don't you think there's something wrong there. well you dont have to look very far. it's me i was in the limelight!!!!!

i was trying to get an attention like a small kid to get a chance to voice my position during the camp, during the post-mortem and during the last class. but you see, the constant failure hit me like the raging waves on the sekakap beach. The positive side of me had been striked by the thunder to death! To tell you the truth, going to the camp had plunged me to the sea of my weaknesses, i was nearly drown. but thank god, my supportive friend were there, i could always reach them for a lifesaver! (since i was deeply trenched in this sad moment, i have created a story for this, i'll post it later! :P). well. i have to thank god for it, at least, now i can confidently tell what i am good at, when i will become weak and vulnerable than a weak and a vulnerbale jellyfish you can find on the sea-shore (sorry, mr. jellyfish-this is just an analogy). Assertive is the word here, being assertive means having a confidence and faith to stand on what you believe is good and true for you. My story about going to the language camp is not lcompletely ike a fairy tale but it is still sort of ending in quite happy condition. but that's a whole different story. i'll post it later. mmmmuuuaaaahhhhhh!
