Sarawak Heritage

I attended a series of lectures few months back, organized by Sarawak Heritage Society and Pustaka Negeri Sarawak.

Being one of a member in Sarawak Heritage Society, I helped in researching and compiling all informations, as well as creating presentation slides.


Research done by Florence

A number of students from LimKokWing showed up for the talk on the first lecture but the number gradually decreases. A few lecturers from my college attended the talk as well.

It was a good opportunity to understand our heritage and how we can help to play our part in conserving it. The series ended with a heritage trail around Kuching and also site visits to the Square Tower and Old Court House.


After a visit to Square Tower


The few of us who managed to attend the lectures till the very end

It was one of the most interesting lectures and definitely not to be missed out the next time.

Ah Ben

Sacrificing my sleep today, I woke up at 9a.m. to help Ben with his assignments and studies. After countless attempts to wake him up, he finally picked me for lunch at almost 1p.m.

He wanted to eat pork leg rice so badly that, I suggested to lunch at one of the best pork leg rice around which is humbly located at Padungan. However, it ran out by the time we reached there (thanks to Ben for oversleeping) so ended up eating at Pizza Hut.

It has been a long time since I went out with him. I must say that I neglected him as a good friend and catching up was fun. Instead of helping him with his work after lunch, he went back home and fall asleep on the sofa, leaving me alone at his empty house. The whole afternoon was wasted because I couldn't wake him up.


He slept like a baby while I studied for Building Structure on my own

He ended up copying my assignment instead. (I hope Mr. Alan does not read this)


Finger for you, for wasting your own time

Ballroom Dance

I've always admire dancers, because I can't dance. And I'm too shy to dance.


He can dance...


Even she can dance...


T_T I can't do that...


But I can do this!

Okay, so I do suck at dancing.

Ever since I took up dance class at Imperial Dance Studio, an influence from my youngest sister, I have greatly enjoyed the lessons. At a reasonable fees of RM 50 per month, one hour per week, I was taught how to do Cha Cha. So now, I'm a dancer.

Everything was fine until the moment I have to dance with a partner. Now, wouldn't any girl would want to dance with some macho guy or at least someone charming? But unfortunately, not many young people are actually interested in ballroom dance and thus, my class is mostly ladies and... extincted men.

Usually I will opt to dance alone. But sometimes... a man older than my father will approach me and asked for a dance.

I swear, I need to get a dance partner soon. My age. Anyone?

Pros: You get to dance with me, the leng loi...
Cons: What cons do you have when you get to hold a girl every week for an hour?!

Yesterday

It was yesterday that I enjoyed myself designing. And now I'm freaked out. I don't want to attend my design presentation! YADA!

What if people laugh at my design? What if my lecturers think that it's ridiculous? I do not want to bring my model to college... It's ridiculously huge... I'm not someone who wants to stand out in college, so bringing something THIS huge is making me really uncomfortable.

I wish I build something smaller... :(
