My Life In PLKN

Here i'm going to tell all of you out there how's life in plkn..briefly...Well,when i first got the news that i was chosen for PLKN,i was shocked and scared to go...i thought it was a waste of time,that i better spend my holidays with my friends at home..but anyways i came to my senses i have to go and i did!It was early in the morning of 4th january...i could'nt sleep well the nite b4..so i got up early to make my final check on my stuff-to-bring...All trainees must 1st gather at STADIUM DARUL AMAN b4 we leave alor star..i got there early and saw none of my chinese's friend that are in the same camp as me! i was terrified..i couldnt sit still so i walked around till my best friend-Yuu came..he's going to another camp...i told him how scared i was to not have any friends there and he tried to make me feel better saying "its ok,you'll find friends there"..I doubted that..after an hour or so gathering there...we were on our own bus getting ready to leave alor star..i met a chinese friend on the bus..call him chee!! he is chubbyly cute! so i sat with him..after another hour sitting on the damn cold bus without wearing sweater..we finally reached DAMAI PARK RESORT my so called "paradise"..weather was hot..but it was my 1st day so i told myself its ok,u've got another 74 more days here! OMFG!we walked up the hill(as our camp is up up and away)..we were gathered(again) in the hall to make our registration..there,i got my own tray(but we have to put it back so its not really our owns)..and i was told im staying in dorm F1..so i started looking for whoever chinese that is in the same dorm as mine..i dint find any and so i went alone to my dorm..I first saw my dorm...it was a long dorm..real long(31 ppl living in it)!! lolx after a while 3 other chineses came and we made friends..like usual,majority was malays..especially kelantanese..i was not comfortable with malays previously as i lived most of my life with chinese! (of course it got better after getting to know them)so i unpacked my things..and try to set my "nest" there..then at the other end of the dorm there were groups of kelantan boys shouting,talking out loud...they seemed happy to be here..then they called us(3 and a half chinese-me,chee and whey)..and we went to have a little chat with them..hahax! we introduced ourselves...they did the same..they had no idea i was half malay so they were talking with this chinese-malay tone..then i told them im half malay..they were shocked..should have captured their faces on camera..hehe,so we continued tallking..too much named to remember at a time..at the end i cant even remember one..i said to myself "its ok..slowly" hahax..after a while...there was this announcement saying all that just arrived please go to logistic to get all of our issued clothes..including the PLKN uniform..we took our turns and we finally got a notepad,pen,2 inner loreng,2 sets of class uniform,2 sets of FULL LORENG,3 kind of socks,kiwi for shoes,brush,rubberband(for FULL LORENG),3 kind of shoes,a cap and a beret,belts,sport shirts and so on..hahax..just to take all those things,it was tiring and i was sweating! then we got our new haircut.."a baldy look is nice" said the teachers! haha..its ok for me as im used to being short-haired guy..lolx we went back to our dorm..and finished my day one just like that...2nd day,all muslims including me were up for morning prayer..we had our breakfast at 7.30 am..then we were brought to have a look around the camp..again it was tiring..we had to line-up all the time..every hour,minute and second! to be honest,1st week was hard for me..For your information,we eat for 6 times a day..breakfast at 7.30am,tea break at 10.30,lunch at 12.30,tea break at 4.30,dinner at 6.30 and finally supper at 10.oo..hehe...but i only ate 2 times or 3 a day..dont wanna get chubby now do you? haha3rd day-we were divided into companies..Alpha,Bravo,Charlie and Delta..i was placed in Charlie,same goes to all my dorm mates in F1..i could'nt see the joy at 1st..then we had our leader chosen(Fikri and E-where)..i had no idea at all about kawad thingy so i just kept quiet..our company's teacher was strict so i was literally scared by him when asked to introduce ourselves one by one..but i did that anyway..after choosing leaders..those leaders(including other companies's as well) had to go for a meeting..to choose a BIG LEADER(we call penghulu) out of them...E-where was chosen! so Fikri as our leader and Nik as our co-leader..hehe..ok,so here's our normal activities day and day..morning prayer at 5.45Moring PT(exercise jasmani) at 6.30breakfast at 7.30class at 8.30teabreak at 10.30class at 11.00lunch at 12.30physical activities at 2.30teabreak at 4.30relax time at 5.30 (i did jogging,bola tampar,bola sepak and stuff like that)dinner at 6.30rollcall at 9.00supper at 10.oo11.00 turn off all the lights(or we will be punished)11.45-no more activities outside dorms!haha we got three kind of classes..(boring to be honest)1st was character building or CB,2nd was integration,3rd was SASTERA( poem thingy)i successfully endured all of those boring classes...but at the same time it was fun though..felt like went through time portal and got back to kindergarten..hehe during those classes we learnt a lot bout cultures and morals and of course the teachers hope to see us apply those things in our lives..haha,we learn how to talk in front of so many people..i got into dikir barat stuff which is something i never did before in my life! it was totally fun! i was blown away! hahax!you got the chance to know a lot of friends there...from different part of states...penang,perak,kedah and of course kelantan..WE LEARNT HOW TO KECEK KELATE with them! fun!! haha,i have two bestest friends ever there..AIMAN AZRI and SULAIMAN AL YAKUUBI...there were awesome..but of course all of my dorm mates were gooooooooooooooddddddddd!!! they loved me!!! and i love them too..During physical activities...we did kawad,flying fox,kembara halangan,water confidence,water sports like kayak and rakit..things we never really do in REAL life..hehe..The sad part is...we dint have the chance to do WIRAJAYA..sad..because we have to go back early than we all thought to get our results..but still i enjoyed there so so much!my company won pertandingan kembara halangan and menembak..speaking of shooting..wow! you'll never get experience like this if your not pelatih PLKN..was so fun! wow is what i can use to describe..but out of 100 points i only got 37..sad but yeah what the hell right?
