Raymond: Titanic

My family

Let start off with my father. Once my father was a engineer. He has retired back in few years back. Now, he can do whatever he wants to 'kill time'...

Well, my mother is a nurse, working in private clinic. I do not know whether is good to have a nurse mother, because she always say 'this food no good, this food no good for health'. Sometime kinda annoying hearing this.

My brother has settled himself in Brunei, sometime during festive seasons or business purpose, he will come back to Malaysia to visit us. He is a very sucessfull businessman, has his own company, and manage it very well. He often tell me that 'nothing comes easily, u need to work hard for it'.

And my Sister is a banker. She establishes well in CIMB. She is a first class honour degree and a master degree holder. She often challenge me to get the first class honour degree.

Sometime, I feel pressured, because my brother and my sister are too good. I afraid I am unable to match them.!! HAIZ

National Service Experience

This is one of the photos taken from my National Service training time. It was back in January 2007, I was sent to Sepang for training.

I still remember the first day I reach there, it was like 'oh my god, I have to stay here for 3 months'. There were no air-con, no water heater, the bed makes me so uncomfordtable.. I cant even sleep well in the first week at there.

Everyday need to wake up at 5am... if you late, you'll get punished... but day after day, I begin to adapt the daily routine at there. And I feel very happy at there despite need to wake so early. This is because I met many friends at there.

Besides that, I learnt quite a lot of thing at there, such as marching, some military knowledge and more.. something I never learn from outside. Until the last day, I feel sad, because all my friends will go back to their respective home and I do not know when we will able to meet again. I saw many of them was crying, and hugging on each other. My tear was nearly drop off from my eye, I hugged my friends and say good bye to them....

It was a great experience... I glad to be chosen to train in the National Service...

My College Friends

There are my College Friends. They helped me a lot in my studies. All of them are very nice, especially when the exam is around the corner, they will always find some useful notes from the library, and share with me. I really appreciate for that. I would happy enough to help them when they are in trouble.

Ironically, those girls always thought I cheat them when I talk about good things. Perhaps I'm not that kind of person who used to talk good things about them.

Among them there are 2 or 3 person that I like to tease. Such as, 'Panda eye', 'Battery Low' and more.. haha.. Sounds bad... We always go hang out together after class, such as go for a movie, Sing K or go for a drink. I feel very happy go out with them, feel less pressure when hang out with them.

So, nothing much to say, just want to thank them for being such a lovely friend of mine. Note: This statement is really, completely and seriously came out from my heart, no cheating or what so ever.

Titanic

Recently, I watch a movie, it is called Titanic. It is a very old movie, I still remember I was still a primary student when I first watch this movie..

This is a very famous movie, it is a real thing. Titanic did sank in 1912.. is 14 of April to be precised.. A ten story high ship, it was the largest ship human have ever made, hit the iceberg and it took about two hours for the freezing water to fill up the ship and eventually sank the ship.

In this movie, I saw people being selfish, irresponsible, fear. I was wondering why the ship crew did not see that coming, was it cause by negligence? In my opinion, YES. Why there wasn't any binoculars for the crew.. without that, it is impossible to see things further in front of the ship. By the time the crew saw the iceberg, it was too late. There was not enough time for Titanic to turn or stop..

At first, all people think that the it is impossible to sink that ship, but Titanic is made of steel, it can be sank. By the time that the architect of Titanic says 'Titanic will sink', it means it will sink. After that, I can see people panic, all of them are desperate to leave the ship. But to make things worse is that, there were not enough boats for people on board. The boats can only save about half of the people on board. It was a big mistake made by the Architect of Titanic, why didn't he makes more boats on the ship. He may have saved more people, and there would not be so many people buried with Titanic into the frozen Atlantic ocean. Of course, Jack was one of them.

Even though you are a great swimmer like Michael Phelps, you never stand a chance to come away alive, because the water is so cold, it just took one or to minutes to take your life away. I can see people screaming for their lives. I saw the priest praying at the last few minutes.

I was touched when I saw Jack lost his life just to save his beloved one Rose. He could have used the floating wood to save his life, perhaps, this is called Love. It was Jack to inspire Rose not to let go and keep living on. Otherwise Rose would have been died. Only 6 of the 1500 people saved in the water including Rose. Only 700 people were saved from the disaster. And it was a great movie!!! Worth to watch...
