愉快之处

其实，国民服务计划也是愉快的。在那儿，我认识了很多朋友。生死之交呢？就或许称不上了啦。但是至少我们曾经互相扶持，相依为命。but this is only applicable to some of us. 这是因为华人当中，自私自利的很多个，愿意伸出援手的屈指可数。我较好的朋友有骆庭裕、叶家维、张泳伦、许志坚、谢棕菘、孙伟亮、骆俊宏、ming shen、ming cai、jia yong、 kai xian、 wei hao、 wan ling、 xin jie、 zen ling、 pei shan、 rui fang、zul(睡我床边的那个马来朋友。讲实话，他真的很照顾我。虽然他抽烟，但是他很友善，很愿意帮助别人。)apih(跟我同房的那个吉兰丹马来人。他很好。他跟zul一样都是好的马来人。他有很强的宗教观念，是我们营地company alfa 的ustaz)、Nathan(跟我较友好的印度人。也是好人一 个。他在元宵节那晚，跳的印度舞很geng！) below are some of my memories in ns camp.

天下无不散的宴席。此时此刻，大家分离了，又何时能够再次相见呢？就算见面了，大家是否能 够像从前一 样，如此滔滔不绝，接一连二的话题？古人有言：有缘千里能相见，无缘对面不相 逢。

国民服务计划

从国民服务计划营回来那么旧，都没有把它记载在我的部落落。我想不管那个经验是愉快的还是悲哀的，它仍然拥有它值得一提的一点。二零零七年三月十一日那天，国民服务计划正式结束。然而，我一滴泪也没流，同时我也不觉得有什么值得流泪的地方。对我来说，被选中参加国民服务计划只是人生一个小小的阶段。更何况，在营地中，我也遭受了一个人持续不断的侮辱、糟蹋，而我选择了容忍，整整容忍了两个多月。我和几个朋友闲聊的时候，发现到原来我不是唯一的受害者。后来，通过他的朋友，我们才知道原来他身世复查，双亲已离婚，家庭问题很多。他在我人生中可说是扮演了相当重要的绝色。我不会讨厌他，反倒，我还想要感激他，感激他磨练了我的耐性。所以，在我忘记你的名字之前，让我在此对你说声：谢谢你，郭政业。

self-pity...

finally i got my JPA, and it's the course i wanted, MEDICINE...but it's in ....indonesia??? i don't know whether to feel happy or not. my grandma and auntie have been so excited imagining me finally given an oppertunity to further my tertiary education in the prestigious Ireland or Australia, or maybe worse come to worst, India, at least it's still better than Indonesia by at least, i don't know...a hundred times? to look on the positive side of it, i am one of the 180 non-malays in malaysia being selected for this JPA scholarship and obtaining this notoriously popular course desired by students from all over the country who always counted on JPA scholarship to realise their dreams of becoming a doctor. people surrounding me are saying that i am so fortunate to be selected, that i am so lucky to get my dream course. honestly, i think i should be feeling that way, but ironically i don't, not at all. should i be grateful to the government for reserving a place for me? i guess not especially when the situation now is some "people" with lousier results than mine actually manage to secure a place in ireland, australia, india.... this is so unfair. but, you know what, the world is never fair. remember how our parents always urge us to be fair to others? it's so unrealistic. you want to kesian others? kesian yourselve first la!
