Focus on my land

There are so many opportunities out there for me, generally for youth. Events, camps or program which develop youth into the future leader who leads the world and for God sake, bring peace to the world.

These days, got so many events here and there but I really caught up by few because they are interesting enough. I had so much of urge to join this, attend that with purpose of meeting new people or sometimes clueless with no purpose at all.

Having reflecting back, what I really want? In 5 years time for forever, what do I want to focus and achieve? In the midst of filling up all the column in the application form, problems and challenges flow in my mind. which field I should focus and contribute and which one is I am good at? I have no idea.

Honestly, I am very keen on women empowerment and animal rights. Frankly, I know nothing about them. I just knew when I see animals perform, I will cry. Don't ask me why. I will always remember their faces after the performance until now. I want to feel how they feel, do they really like to perform or they perform only for the food which act as a acknowledgement. I have once thought of going to Australia and work in Sea World. That is why having a diving licence or even a marine animals care examination I don't mind taking them. That's all what I can say about how much I love animal.

Things happen in the globe every second, we cannot help them all but I believe if all of us play our part well, it will be enough to turn the world another side, the good one.

Recent years, I see so many things happening in Malaysia's politics, economy or in social aspect. Joining international event might be a solution for youth to widen their horizon of looking things and having international friends with same interest will definitely help you in broaden your network and share experiences.

Personally, I would focus on my country first. I enjoy the moment where all races, the who nation come together to help the beloved country. It simply say how people care about each other and the country.

I shall make up my mind, focus my own country before solve other country's problem because I belong to this land and I really want it to be better as the time goes, at least for my next generation. :)

Happy Malaysia by the way! :)
Enjoy the song and feel the lyrics kay.

3 Months and 1 Day

Hello world, I have ended my internship last Friday, total period is 3 months and 1 day. Many people asked how do I feel on the last day, I have nothing to much to say and I actually held on my emotion back but I can't control in the morning. 

When I reached in the morning at the first place, I saw something on my table. 1 Peel Fresh orange juice and 1 small box of koko crunch with a little note written "Breakfast set from Jenn & Beatrice". They knew I was mumbling that I couldn't get my peel fresh juice from the vending machine but it's stucked in there. I was quite down because I wanted to experience buying orange juice from the vending machine in Groupon which is newly brought into.

I teared in the morning, not much, maybe two drops? No one will ever understand how I felt and how much of appreciation I wanted to express. By the way, Jenn is my direct team leader and Beatrice is another colleague or a close one.

Just in case, you couldn't picture the words. Here you go.

As I said, I really think God loves me because I met so many amazing people in the company whereas I might not find them in elsewhere. I am just thankful, thankful and thankful for whatever happened. This experience might not my turning point in life but indeed, is a significant and a memorable one. 

Tell you something interesting stuffs throughout these 3 months. 

These are all the first time in my life and I did it in Groupon.

1. Played table tennis

2. Play pool

3. Been to a real party where people drink and dance

4. Went to karaoke with colleagues

5. Work from home because I couldn't go to work due to massive jam

6. Took 3 days AL as it is given

Well, life still goes on. We don't stop at a point because we feel comfortable, aite? 

To recap, ending the internship is so rewarding where I got positive feedbacks from the leaders and colleagues who never fail to support me and guide me. All my hard work paid off eventhough I did nothing much in my team. Thank you people if you happened to read this post.

I shall stop writing now and start to watch a hindi movie "Slumdog Millionaire" which recommended by my colleague after watching 3 idiots!

Love,Sarah♥

Charismatic leader

I have been working in Groupon for the past 3 months since 5th June 2013. My director left 2 days ago for the God sake of having his own business after he served Groupon for exactly 1 year. I thought I will never teared on that day because I am just an intern and not working directly under him too but surprisingly, I teared along with the colleagues when the farewell video played. I am always the person who is known as emotional when comes to sentimental matter.

Honestly, i was sad because such a great, down to earth and understanding leader left and is really a waste. During his short speech, he said "Now, I left behind my team and pursue my dream, this time I am not leaving alone but a team, this is the most difficult farewell. They are like my child, so dependent on me." I teared, he choked and we sobbed. Nonetheless, I am always impressed by him since the day I came in, he always go along with the team mate well, concentrate to an individual when he/she telling him their problems.

Not to mention, before we (intern) go for lunch, he even asked for picture which I will never expect from a leader, a superior one since he is a top management in Groupon. I'm touched by the movement.

I would definitely love to follow a leader like him, a mature, caring and fun leader who always support his team all the way and focus on his team's growth.

Never easy to bid goodbye! All the best in your future undertakings! :)

By the way, tomorrow will be my last week of internship already, not sure whether I will cry. However, I will do my best to contribute all I have to leave no regret.

Love,Sarah♥
