i must say... last weekend was the most hectic weekend since i got to bintulu. the young executives club (YEC) were assigned to give some motivational talk to the locals. initially, i was assigned with about 6 other committee members to give some motivational stuff for the kids. in the plan, there was suppose to be bout 20-30 kids under 12 only. but it turned out to be 50 kids under 10. and entertaining them really did suck the life out of me. and most of the time... we DIDNT even follow our program tentatives. it was fun for the 1st hour. but then things started to get really shitty when i was tired... and they followed me everywhere i went. im not trying to say im a good entertainer to kids or anything, but dear god... i just did one magic, and helped them cheered a lot... somewhat. but then honestly... i felt like i was some head mafia gangster... coz these lil boys kept following me wherever i went. totally suffocating. i couldnt even get some rest. and it started from 1030am till 430pm. imagine having at least 30 kids connecting to you like glue. it was fun... but it really got tiring towards the end. but hey... anything for the kids..... (do i sound like father of the year or what? hehe).
the kampung was awesome. what they dont have... cellphone network... electricity.... and water. basically, their electricity comes from generator, and their water comes from the rain that they collected throughout the year. but seriously... minus the kids... it'd be one of the most relaxing place ive ever been to. no cellphone ringing... just winds blowing, and nice ppl to talk to. i mingled around with locals easily as i speak some brunei. 'au tah... bulih tah ku berkurapak brunei sikit, tapi batah banar ku indak berkurapak, payah banar'. :D. heheh. but anyway, the makcik2 were cool, i had kari kijang for the first time, didnt get the chance to taste the pelanduk though. but then the pakcik2 has already offered to take me hunting if i wanted to. and dude... another manly thing to add to my list. hunting with a bunch of men holding a rifle in the dark nite and bbq-ing wild deer right after we skewer him under the fire. yummm....
all in all... it was awesome... of course the kids were getting annoying... but then again... they were just... kids. there's a lot more they need to know. for the time being... the best thing to teach them is... how to have FUN. no skema2 thing... just pure kick ass FUN. and the kampung... full of culture, tradition, and education....
