Memorable moment from your childhoo

 I remember when I was 10, my mom suddenly came up with a new nickname for me. At first, I kind of didn’t like it, and all of my cousins fathers made fun of it. But one of my cousins really annoyed me by keep calling it to mock me, and one day on a peaceful evening, I was really triggered by her. She mocked me in front of a lot of people that time, and I just kicked her on the stomach. Everyone was shocked by my action, and my aunt got angry and kicked me out of the house. I’m a leaver. I will leave. anything I don’t like. then they came find me at some random old lady house serving coffee for me. My mom told me that violence is not the only way to solve a problem, but she was the one who triggered me first, so it’s not my fault. The day after when I was playing alone, my aunt came to provoke me. I almost stabbed her, but my brother said it’s not worth it, so we just go and keep quiet.

A place you have always wanted to visit.

 Switzerland has always been a place I want to visit since my teenage years. I do think that I want to move there someday with one of my friends. When we were in high school, we promised each other that one day we would visit Switzerland. Switzerland is such a comfortable place to take a rest from a tiring world and people. For a person who finds comfort in silence, I would definitely want to visit or even continue my study there one day if I got the chance to. Actually, I just want to run away from people around me. They're just loud and annoying, but at the same time I don’t want to leave my mother, so I can only visit if I have enough money, because for now I only have a lot of time but not money. So I need to finish my studies, get a stable job, save up, and go to Switzerland. Maybe I just go alone because that friend and I no longer talk since he continues his studies a little bit away from me.

Reflect on your recent accomplishment.

 My most recent accomplishments maybe that I got into college. probably.  Well, at least I make my mom stop worrying about my future because I’ve been wasting a lot of time all these years. kinda nervous at the first day, but then everything went smoothly. I got a lot of good people around me, a positive vibe even though it's kind of negative sometimes. After living away from my parents for the first time, I'm kind of proud of myself because I can handle my life pretty well, but sometimes I feel regret about my choice. after all this for my own good. It’s fun being at college, and I think my confidence starts to build up little by little, or maybe it's just me who thought about it. I make my own schedule so that my life is always on a trail and I don’t get lost anywhere. After living at the hostel for 3 months, I think that my mom raised me better than people at my hostel, because they're kind of weird and keep acting like spoilt kids. I don’t get any culture shock, not...

Current event or social issue that matters to you.

Scial issues that kind of matter for me right now, probably racist people. There’s a lot of actually racist people around me, but not me tho. According to the Malaysian population, there are three ethnic groups, such as Malay, Chinese, and Indian, but people here call it type M, type C, and type I. very thoughtful.   Back to the topic, the Malaysian government has policies that give special rights to Malaysians and Bumiputera. For example, in my college, they only accept Malay and Bumiputera students but not Chinese and Indian. kind of racist, but that's fine; I love it; that's why I study here. On the other hand, racist incidents can also be seen in daily life and on social media, where people act unfairly based on someone’s race. While Malaysia is a peaceful country, this issue still exists. The challenge for the country is to find ways to balance these policies while promoting equality and harmony among all ethnic groups.

A day in your life as a college student

 The daily life of a college student is usually filled with a busy schedule. Usually I wake up at 5 am and then get ready for the day. I arrived at college at 7 am, and yes, it’s kind of a little bit early to start the day for someone like me. So I just filled the time by gossiping with my friends. I really got a lot of information from them. After that, we just attended class. I try so hard to stay focused in class even though my mind told me to just sleep. After class is finished, we just go find something to eat. If not, I just continued to sleep anywhere I felt like to. After that, we just continue other classes until evening. Before going back to the hostel, I treat myself to ice cream because the bus driver is always late. It’s not an interesting day, but I enjoy having fun with my friends. Even though, despite being the oldest, they never respect me, but that's fine; I still love them.
