My Dorm (block in NS camps)



The dorm that I'm residing won the Best Dorm Award.
It's Charlie.
We spent a lot of time decorating our dorm, sometimes we did not sleep to decorate it.
It's a sign of our unity of our dorm members.
Besides it shows the leadership of our dorm monitor, Lok Kah Yun that won the Best Male Participant Award.
Cleanliness and creativity will always be in our mind.
As the person in charge of the cleanliness of the dorm, along with my partner, we ensure that the dorm is always in clean and tidy condition.
May the future members of Charlie will uphold and retain our title with the guidance of Mr. Awang and Mr. Roslan (Cikgu Dewa)

M16 Riffle Lesson







On the 17th of May 2009, we had a theory class on how to handle firearm, M16 riffle (5.56mm).
The theory class is handled by the army from the Malay Regiment 516 Tawau.
The diameter of the bullet used is 5.56mm.
We are taught about the structure of the weapon and it's characteristics.
The velocity of the bullet is 990m/s.
With the mass of 2.94kg, the weapon is an option of most military including the US Army during the war with Vietnam.
Besides it is able to be used underwater, thus attacks can be made underneath the water.
We are also taught how to disassemble and assemble some of the parts of the gun.
The next day my company, Mat Kilau along with Rentap 91 went to the shooting range to undergo the shooting exercise.
We are not allowed to keep any of the bullets including blanks because it is against the law.
In the end of the session we are required to take an oath.

Flight from Kuala Lumpur to Tawau

On the 15th of April 2009, I took a flight from LCCT-KLIA to Tawau Airport after attending an interview at Universiti Teknologi Petronas, Tronoh, Perak for Petronas Scholarship.
The flight from Sepang to Tawau took two hours and forty-five minutes.
I was lucky because the plane I aboard is travelling from west to east during evening. Thus I'm able to experience three changes of the horizone of the sky; daylight, sunset and night.
The panorama from the window of the plane is fantastic.
