Wooo…that was one great experience. It was great great GREAT! Plus all the hot guys there…you’ll just want to melt right there and then. Well…actually the hot looking ones (guys) are mostly the Rotractors and the foreign exchange students. There were about 9 foreign students. Two guys from Germany, two girls and a guy from Brazil, one guy from Mexico, two girls from Japan and one girl from Switzerland. The hot guys are the guy from Mexico, I think his name is Cristian and one guy from Germany, his name is Karl. The Brazilian girls are hot looking too.
On the first day I’ll admit that I wasn’t actually loving it that much. I was actually wishing time to go faster so it would all end. I guess it was because we’ve been placed in new groups with total strangers and we haven’t warmed to each other yet. Anyway, I was placed into Group 17. On the first day, we gathered around and introduced ourselves and then we decided on the group name. Our group color was orange…so we called ourselves the "Orange Utans". Actually…I suggested it. Lol. But they liked it. Hehe.
I was wrong about the rooms. I mean the roommates. We weren’t placed with total strangers, we got to bunk in with our schoolmates. Yay! I got a room together with Jega and Jie Yi. And I slept on the top bunk of the double decker bed. It wasn’t that bad, I actually liked it a little. Haha. Oh yeah…about our hostels…it was kinda horrid. The bathrooms actually. There were coackroaches crawling around the place…eww. Coackroaches and girls don’t go along very well with each other. So we could hear screams from the bathroom every now and then. I screamed a few times myself. There was once when I was going to brush my teeth, I went to one of the sinks and reach to turn on the tap. I got a fright and screamed when I saw a coakroach in the sink. I kinda panicked a little and dropped my special toothbrush for my braces into the sink. (>.<) I had to throw the head of the toothbrush away.
Hmm yeah…I met a few of my ex-primary schoolmates there. One of them was in my group, she was older than me a year so I think maybe she couldn’t really remember me but we got on alright. My group members were alright except maybe for a few members who were a little quiet and well…I don’t know…not very friendly?
As a group, we had this task of acting out a commercial of an item we picked out from a bag. Our group got pepper spray and we had to use a folding fan as one of our props. Our plot was well…quite simple. This girl and her group of friends were out shopping, gossiping, etc. and suddenly this rapist appears. The group of friends screams and runs away leaving one girl behind. She takes out her old "X" branded pepper spray and try to attack the rapist. But it doesn’t work…so then the scene freezes…someone would appear out of nowhere and introduce the "Orange Utans" brand pepper spray and place it in the girl’s hands. Then the scene would unfreeze and now the girl is able to attack the rapist with her new "Orange Utans" brand pepper spray. Yeah…that’s what our plot’s about. But the main girl is actually a guy dressed like a girl. I don’t know why but a lot of other groups did the same thing. They dress guys as girls. Lol. I don’t understand why they like doing it. But there was this group, Krystine’s group, who got the same exact items as we did. So they too got a guy to act as a girl. I have to say that I was impressed by the guy’s acting. That guy won the best actor prize. The funniest part is during the end when he did this girlish dancing, spinning thing saying "buy our product today, or not i will call you gay". Haha. That was really hilarious.
On the second day, we had to go through several talks. Well…I don’t really like saying this but some of them were rather dull. Especially the one about "How Education Is Important Towards Nation Building". The speaker said too that it was a rather heavy and boring subject. A few Interactors actually went to sleep. Haha. Oh well. But later that day during the night, was the time when all the groups had to perform their 1 minute commercial. They were all rather funny…enjoyed it very much. And yeah…the foreign exchange students did a little performance too. The Brazilian students sang a few songs for us. The Brazilian guy was a pretty good guitar player and singer. Did I mention that he looks very much like the football player Ronaldinho? Except that he has better teeth and looks better. Anyway I’ll post pictures at the end of this post.
After that there was a live band performance. I’m not exactly sure what’s the name of the band but I heard that it was The Japans. Don’t ask me why they chose that name. They played a few songs for us…about 5. The first was Kau Ilhamku, then a chinese song followed by Mungkin Nanti and What’s Up by 4 Non Blondes. Initially they only planned to play four songs but the crowd asked for more…so they came back with one last song, Can’t Take My Eyes Off Of You. It was pretty okay their performance.
The last day. It was sad. During the closing ceremony I felt like crying…my eyes got all teary. I was starting to have fun but it had to end. It’s always unfairly that way. When the fun finally starts, it has to end already. The day started with a couple of talks. It wasn’t that boring. And then we had this business game. My friends and I lost. (>.<) Oh well. Tokens of appreciation were given out to the speakers, Rotarians and Rotracters by the District Governer, Dato’ Jimmy Lim. I like him…in fact all the speakers and Rotracters too. He had us sing this farewell song, When Will I See You Again. It’s an old song, I think almost everyone has heard of it. There was confetti at the end and seeing it all end made me tear up again. Pictures taken by the Rotracters will be sent to us via email. I hope I get mine soon.
So that’s all I guess. There’s so much more that I can’t write it out. We took more pics during the last day, of our rooms, bathrooms, ourselves, the foreign exchange students, and lots more. Okay, I know you’re dying to see the pictures. =P
Here:
Our sleeping place. I slept at the top bunk.
The other bed in the room but no one slept in it. Jega and Jie Yi slept together in one bed.
The bed in CM’s, Seow Teng’s and Krystine’s room.
Study table in our room. Kinda messy and infested with ants actually. =S
The horrible toilets.
One of the shower cubicle. Look how irresponsible some of the girls are. =.=
Aaahh! Look! Coakroachh!
The guy from Brazil performing. I forgot his name. Lol.
All the foreign students performing for us.
The six of us in the auditorium during the closing ceremony.
All members of the Interact Club of my school who went for the conference.
Us with the District Representative from Rotract Club of Bangsar, Mr Chandrasegaran and our teacher advisor, Sir Willeam.
Another pic of us but without CM and Seow Teng with Mr Chandra and the President of Rotract Club of Kelana Jaya, Bernard Hor. I kinda like him…he looks very familiar to me but I don’t know where I’ve seen him. And that’s where we stayed, in College 3.
Outside our rooms with Jega, Jie Yi and Me. Don’t mind my silly pose.
Haha…you know we were like dying to take pictures with the foreign exchange students especially the guy from Mexico and the German guy. And guess what? We did!
Sadly, this picture didn’t turn out right because the light overhead and you can’t really see me there! Haha. The guys were all sweaty…I could smell their sweat…not that it smelled bad. Hehe. The first and third guy in the pic are from Germany, second and fourth from Brazil, the fifth guy from Mexico and the girl beside Krystine is from Japan.
The Brazilian guy who looked amazingly like Ronaldinho but better. He had his arm on my shoulder!
And lastly, my favourite one. Because Karl looks totally gorgeous in this one. Take a look.
I just love the way Karl looks in this picture. He didn’t do it on purpose actually. He kinda have this habit of flicking his hair coz’ it’s always getting into his eyes. So I think the camera caught him in mid-flick of his hair. I wanted to stand beside the Mexican guy…but Krystine got there first =( But I got to smell his perfume…hehe.
I forgot to bring my camera so we had to use Wei Hong’s camera. Too bad…I didn’t get to take much pictures. But at least I got pictures with the foreign students. =P
And yeah! Did I mention that Jie Yi was in the same group with Karl?! That lucky girl! She even got his number!!! I’m so gonna get it from her.
I guess this is all I have at the moment. When I get the pictures taken by Jie Yi’s phone and also those sent by the Rotracters, I’ll post them up. =)
