Their way~ what about ours???

This chapter of my life actually set back in 2007 when Labuan was selected to host the "Sukan Paralimpik Zon Sabah Sarawak".. Mom was the head committee for the catering and I was unofficially designated as her loyal assistant hehe~


It was just the begining of the long semester break and since the briefing for all committees were done during my final, so I've missed the part where the committees were trained on how to deal with disabled athletes.. My part was to distribute food so I actually interact directly with all the athletes when it was time for meal. The tough part of this job was mom and I had to rush to all different venues.


It was a very memorable event.. So much different than all the events that I've participated in life. This was where I met Pakcik Budi, a one-legged musician who won against two-legged athletes in badminton. This was where I met Mahathir, a sweet boy who's much much better than me in ten pin bowling.. I wrote about these wonderful people in my old blog~



The first day of the event was quite a shock for me.. I didn't have a slight idea that it would be so0o0o0 challenging.. Being committee in lots of p
rogram wasn't enough to prepare myself for this one.. As catering, I was only expecting to just pass the polystyrine to the athletes.. But it was more than just that..




For the blind, you have to tell them it's food and help them grip the spoon and then if there's sambal in the meal, then you'll have to ask whether they eat spicy food or not and if not, you must help them remove the sambal.. And then there were the deaf, the down syndrome, the crippled , the limbless and many more.. They have different needs and have to be treated differently..



So0o0o0 it was on the first day that I encountered these adorable things.. I was giving out some refreshments when the athletes from different parts of Borneo arrived that evening~ I was handing over a plastic filled with food to a deaf teenage boy (since he's deaf so he can't talk as well) and after taking the plastic he said "Aaaaaa" while patting my shoulder..

I thought he needed water "Mau air ka?? Sekejap ah~"

But then I heard a voice from behind saying "Dia cakap terima kasih bha tu~" It was his coach. And I was like "Owh~ ok~ heee sama-sama" and patted the boy's shoulder..


And then while giving food to a group of 'special' children, they hop around happily while
clapping their hands. At first, I thought it was a beginning of tantrums but then I found that was their way of saying thanks. Well, what surprised me most was that I continue to encounter all these gestures throughout the 5 days.. They never stop doing them everytime I pass the food...



You know what, when my mom first signed me up for the catering job for that event, I thought the job was so minor that I wouldn't have the chance to get involve with the athletes. But my perception was wallowed when these athletes were actually so grateful and did all those things just to show how happy they were with the small duty that I was obliged to do..
You see, these athletes were so sweet.. They appreciated even the smallest things done to them..

Trying to say thanks even when they can't talk..

Trying to say thanks
with thumbs up...

Trying to say thanks with a simple hug..

Yeah~ that's their way~ But what about us...? Our gratiude can be expressed with simple words that could be expelled in a split second but we often forget to do so especially for simple things done for us~ 1 thing these special people taught us was "there's nothing too small to be least appreciated"


I said this once in my old blog and am going to say this again


"Isn't it amazing how the people who have less could taught us a lot more about life..?? Isn't it amazing, though they're not meant to understand, but never forget what they were taught~ ? Their senses and figures may not be made perfect.. But their souls are so pure.. And that's why they deserve the word "special""


This post is my response to my dear friend Intan who tagged me to participate in "1 bulan 1 adab" campaign.. I don't have great stories but I think this is an experience worth to share (^^)v

Labuan is so0o0o0 hot right now~ I just cancelled my jogging plan because I don't think I can stand the heat~ I don't want to end up thin but have those red spots all over my face plus the prickles from sun burn~ haiyak~ So I guess I'll just update this blog with some details about this semester break...


HANGING OUT WITH MY BESTIES!!!!!!!!! \(^^)/



22 Nov 2009~


My flight was delayed on the 21st and I reached home at midnight~ I was tired~ But that didn't stop me from waking up early the next day to see these beautiful girls!!!!!!



We had lunch at Pizza Hut and were too carried away chit chatting that we forgot to take pics.. hehe gossips were told... secrets were shared... All stories since our last meeting were fed to each other within the precious hours.. The afternoon was just SPLENDID.. Then we went to watch "the Christmas Carol"...




Pah, aku nda tau kenapa this pic is so0o0o0 small~




I just found out that my besties are also game arcade fanatics like me~ hehe they no longer use tokens in 1 Borneo but use card instead.. See the card I'm holding?? I bought that for rm13 and there are 10 points inside.. You just have to insert the card into an inlet and press a button to start the game.. NEAT!!! We assigned Pah as the General Card Holder so Pah, jangan lupa bawak tu kad everytime we meet up!!! hehe I've another card for a game arcade chain in Indonesia~ hehe




Aimi and I are both "anak polis" and we paired in Time Crisis to rescue the president hehe
We proceed until stage 2!!!! But we were in a hurry that evening so we couldn't continue~ wuwuwu T_T


Pah.. Aimi.. Sebenarnya~ aku suda habis maen ni Time Crisis dari I sampai III in my PS huahuahua Tapi yang kita maen ni Time Crisis 4 kan??? so0o0o0 kira aku nda maen buyuk la~ hehe Kalo I sampai III, I remember all the scenes~ haha
*buyuk: cheat

I really had a good time that day!! We should do this more often!!
