YES2009A tremendous experience in my life,
that was Youth Engagement Summit (YES) 2009
recently hold at Putrajaya International Convention Center, Kuala Lumpur.
 Many of you might heard of YES,
but may be only a few that know what exactly this programme hold for.
In simple words,
An action by youth, for youth!
This programme was proposed by Youth Asia Committee
Presented by AirAisa, thank to their CEO Datuk Seri Tony Fernandes
Sponsored by Sime Darby
Cooporation with Media Prima, CNN, SciCom
together with youth clubs around the world,
particulary in South East Asia.
This programme was meant for youth in South East Asia
Today's youth are more aggressive and they need more attention
They want their voice to be heard of,
either by the world, or at least by their country government
YES 2009 is all abouth youths coming together to express their aspirations and dream for a better future.
And proud to say that this programme was planned due to inspiration from US President Barrack Obama!
Everybody needs a hero, and President Obama's charismatic approach has undeniably influenced a dynamic shiftin long-held perceptions,
particularly when Southeast Asia's multi-ethnic youths are concerned !
Everyone needs hope to succeed! Without hope, there is no push and spiriti for someone to move on, to dream!
500 youths were given free tickets to join this first hold programmes in Malaysia!
These youth leaders were chosen among the SEA countries, they have the power to serve as 'agents of change',
and are able to influence his or her community as well as speak with authority, confidence and passion.
So, YES2009 is designed to be exactly that spark to light the movement!
In this programme, WORLD CLASS speakers were invited to give motivation talk, which turned up to inspire millions of youth across southeast asia.
This programme were brought on Live Show via CNN and also media TV from China and India, as well as some well known universities.
Over a million of youths signed up and there were only 500 fortunate birds wre being chosen.
The global icons joined together in this YES2009 were
1. Sir Bob Geldof - The founder of Live Aid and Live8
2. Nando Parrado - The ultimate Survivor and Inspirational speaker - Miracle in th Andes
3. Biz Stone - The founder of Twitter

Wow, wasn't its amazing?
Yes, it was! And I believe it is going to be better and better for the coming YES 2010, probably held at Indonesia!
So, it's tme to share my part of story during this programme!
Well, from where I got to know about this?
Is all because of my curiosity, I clicked on the advertisement shown on my facebook page!
I couldn't win the ticket to join the delegates from all around the SEA countries!
I invited 35++ friends but I was not selected to be the lucky one!
It was quite dissapointing at first,
but God often keep something good for me!
A friend of mine has been selected to join
thank to my invitation email
so she got to know about it
and lucky enough to be chosen
She received email about recruitment of volunteer for YES2009
when i got to know about it
it was already deadline for the application
I tried my luck
and once again, God kept a place for me
I was being selected to join the volunteer team!
It was really great experience!
I helped out in the preapration, packing up the goody bags and so on
But my friend visited me last night before the programme officially started!
Migraine klilled me and I couldn't make it for the first day of the programme
I missed Sir Bob Geldof, I missed Biz Stone and number of the world class speakers!
OMG!
But i was healthy enough to join the second day of the programme!
Haha! It was a great one!
You will never understand how fortunate we were, as the volunteer team!
We were allowed to sit at the VIP seats once the audience entered the conference hall
Having great speaker right in front of you
with a feet near
that moment was tremendously EXCITING!
I met Gary Kasparov, Mr David, Nando Parrado, TOny Fernandes etc.
Of course, emcee - Lorraince Hahn. U know what! She is damn nice and beautiful. SHe is really cool !
What make the difference between the 500 youth delegates and me?
hahaha.. I got to sit at the VIP seats and I GOT THE CHANCE TO TAKE PHOTO WITH THE GREAT SPEAKERS !
Hahahaha.. So i would like to say that, thank God, I wasn't chosen as one of the 500 winners!
Even though these youth delegates were being paid RM100 for bonus
I did get RM50 ! RM50? U dun get me wrong, this is not salary, just a token of appreciation by the organizer.!
I never know that volunteers are going to have that money when I signed up!
Oh ya, want to say that the VIP seats cost 950 USD !!!!!!!!!
ANd i got to sit there!
What did I learnt by attending such great programme?
I just can't define it!
But I would like to say, hopefully the lessons I got from YES2009 might change my life
I learnt lot from the speakers
great advice and great inspiration from them!
Also, first and ever in my life,
I raised a question to Mr David during Q&A session in front of all youth delegates, the VIPs and VVIPs
I trained myself to be brave to speak in front of so many people
especially in front of the youth leaders and corporate members!
I was nervous actually, but i did voice out my question clearly
glad to say that at least I don't have repeat my question
as MR David was clearly undertstand with what I asked!
proven my english isn't that bad ! hahaha!
So sorry that I can't share everything here
the lessons i learnt can harldy describe by words
most importantly, to experience it!
I really fall in love with the speakers
I have never salute anyone like them before
They have the power to change the world
They are able to influence the youth
as so they leader of the future world!
I wish one day, I can become as great as them or even better than them! This is my dream, and yes is DREAM!
Trust me, dreams can come true! 这样噢原来是这样噢
完全形容不了那样的心情
就那样吧
我呢？
就这样吧....
原来时间会让一切改变
分离后的距离
如果再次重回交叉点
需要多快的速度才能够填补之间的空隙....
我爱花，
所以我把它留下.. 爱情爱情
什么东西？
今天思绪总是在环绕着爱情这个主题
关于自己的
也有关于偶像剧的情节
到底
现实中的爱情
也可以好像偶像剧那样般梦幻？
爱情真的那么纯洁吗？
没有年龄的差距？
没有物质的衬托？
没有自私的念头？
这是现实中的爱情吗？
我渴望拥有那样的爱情
疼我爱的人
被我爱的人疼
多么的甜蜜
起码当我坚强到累了
还有位知心的
今天朋友问我
你不想吗？
我说想！
就存粹想而已
这一刻真的不行
没有勇气
没有能力
没有一切都没有
什么都没有
更没有力量做出任何的承诺
因为我这几年来
不断的在改变
不管变好变坏
然而改变的速度
就连我自己都需要时间
站在镜子面前适应自己的模样
在看看肩膀上的重量
以及眼帘的一切梦想
实在没有勇气容下爱情这门话题
因为我知道自己给不了太多
害怕伤害了对方
单身，没有什么不好
不是吗？
虽然寂寞时没有人陪伴
可是我需要面对的责任
也相对少了
没办法
凡是在我身边的人事物
只要属于了我
我就务必自己做到最好
最后可能累垮了
爱情？
不能强求
还是顺其自然的好！ 风信子哇!
终于考完了!
10张考卷, 不是开玩笑的.
努力了,付出了
希望成绩是预期想要的...
接下来
继续冲刺
因为还有很多事情要做哦
昨天看了不偶像剧
原来风信子的花语那么有意义
是生命
倘若风信子枯萎
要它重新开花
就一定要将它之前生长出来的部分除掉
留下根就好
它会重新开花
反之如果继续将枯萎的花朵留着
它将永远保持原状
枯萎
Be dead, and rise from dead.
死亡就是生命的开始
抛开过去种种不愉快
迈向未来
这就是死亡的意义
一切结束
重新开始
加油! 如果没有你太多的情绪 没适当的表情 最想说的话我应该从何说起 最想说的话我该从何说起 你是否也像我一样在想你 如果没有你 没有过去 我不会有伤心 但是有如果还是要爱你 如果没有你 我在哪里 又有什么可惜 反正一切来不及 反正没有了自已 不想让你知道忽然不想让你知道
在我心中 你多重要 既然你要自由 你就得到 让你永远都记得我好 忽然不想让你知道 你的爱我已经戒不掉 就让思念淹没 我不想逃 反正你将永远不知道 今夜星光多美好 适合用寂寞去凭吊 我们曾用爱互相依靠 付出多少不用计较 想一个人多美好 就算只剩记忆可参考 被爱放逐到天涯海角 我的思念你不用都知道 直到有天你我年老 回忆随著白发风中闪耀 至少我清清楚楚知道 你若想起我会微笑 Fantastic Record Breaking!I just break a new record in my student life !
A 2-hour exam paper,
I spent half an hour
then left the hall
There were 6 essays question,
every pages been filled up with my writings
Wow.. wasn't its great?
Lecturer doesntt believe it at first, he came up and check the paper..
He thought it be all blank? May be...
He saw every pages full with my handwriting
BUT
He will never know
what I wrote were probably rubbish
until the moment he starts to assess
I jz cant sit long there
I squeezed nothing out frm my brain
So, i jz wrote everything intuitively
Doubt, can I get an A, still ?
Uh, God BLESS me.. an A- is not bad though. God, can u hear me? 怎么了心情从高峰跌到谷底
学期终考过了五张
还剩另外五张
考到很差？不觉得
那么为什么从高峰跌到谷底？
就是因为“不觉得”
所以才担心害怕
或许你会说那不好吗？
当我觉得不害怕的同时
身边的朋友却觉得试题很难
到底是我太自信的自以为是
还是真的会作答？
我真的不懂
因为好久好久
我对自己的学业没那么自信过
就算从前会作答，都觉得不够好
如今反而挺多不会作答
竟然没有担心
反而还自以为是的觉得很好
天啊!
我怎么了？
原本的自信满满
却因为朋友们都说不会作答
而怀疑自己的能力
我怎么了？
希望这一次的期望不会好像从前
换来一箩箩的失望
希望这一次带来的是好的预兆！
A poem from a dadTO MY CHILD
Just for this morning, I am going to smile when I see your face and laugh when I feel like crying. Just for this morning, I will let you choose what you want to wear, and smile and say how perfect it is. Just for this morning, I am going to step over the laundry and pick you up and take you to the park to play. Just for this morning, I will leave the dishes in the sink, and let you teach me how to put that puzzle of yours together. Just for this afternoon, I will unplug the telephone and keep the computer off, and sit with you in the backyard and blow bubbles. Just for this afternoon, I will not yell once, not even a tiny grumble when you scream and whine for the ice cream truck, and I will buy you one if he comes by. Just for this afternoon, I won't worry about what you are going to be when you grow up, or second guess every decision I have made where you are concern at. Just for this afternoon, I will let you help me bake cookies, and I won't stand over you trying to fix them. Just for this afternoon, I will take us to McDonald's and buy us both a Happy Meal so you can have both toys. Just for this evening, I will hold you in my arms and tell you a story about how you were born and how much I love you. Just for this evening, I will let you splash in the tub and not get angry. Just for this evening, I will let you stay up late while we sit on the porch and count all the stars. Just for this evening, I will snuggle beside you for hours, and miss my favourite TV shows. Just for this evening when I run my finger through your hair as you pray, I will simply be grateful that God has given me the greatest gift ever given. I will think about the mothers and fathers who are searching for their missing children, the mothers and fathers who are visiting their children's graves instead of their bedrooms. The mothers and fathers who are in hospital rooms watching their children suffer senselessly and screaming inside that little body And when I kiss you goodnight I will hold you a little tighter, a little longer. It is then, that I will thank God for you, and ask him for nothing, except one more day.............. - A poem from a father, writing to express how he feel towards the tragedy happen to his child. All he wants, just to have his child by his side ONE MORE DAY - U hate it, but u got no choiceUh, 7 more to go!
So so boring, undesired challenging
That;s final exam
u hate it, but you got no choice
