Service for Mankind

Today has been a great even though a bit tiring day. Today my church organized a free medical checkup for peoples. The venue for the event is in a hall somewhere at the back of my church. I volunteer to help out in this event. It was fun. Well, my job is only to assist the medics, such as calling out the patient's name, collecting patient's card, etc. The doctors are chinese, but they know how to speak tamils! The event start at 2 pm (I arrive there around 1.30 pm, as there was some briefing first). At first there was less people, as it was raining quite heavily. When the rain stop around 2.30pm, people begin to come. We finish around 4.30pm, and done packing around 5 pm. 63 people have come for this medical checkup. That is quite a lot. It feels good to help out, even though it's not much. Other than that, i finally bought a L handle with a set of socket to replace the one i lost, along with a ratchet. It cost me RM 50! But, tools are tools, it's important, can't complain. At least i'm pretty sure this one is much more better than the one provided by the academy. Now the only thing left is the tool box. The one they sell at the hardware shop nearby where my aunt stay is too big and too expensive. I think i will buy it when i go back Kuantan next week. I can't go on with that tool bag! It's driving me up the wall. Next week i'll be learning suspension, guess there will be more practical. For the test last Friday, i did quite well, 96 marks. Only done 2 mistakes. One is:

Bilakah Brake Fluid harus ditukar?
A) 65 000 KM
B) 20 000 KM
C) 30 000 KM
D) 40 000 KM

The teacher never teach about this, so i answer B. The actual answer is D. And the other question is:

Yang berikut adalah komponen - kompenen brake KECUALI:
A) Master Cylinder
B) Brake Booster
C) Parking Brake Lever
D) Brake Fluid

This one is quite confusing. But actually it's quite simple. I answer C, but actually the answer is D, as it is FLUID and not COMPONENT. Darn frusfrating. I miss another chance to get 100 marks again.

My church is planning another event on 5th of November, 2009. The event is to spread Christianity to around Sri Johor Flat area. I already given my name, along with Kah Loon. Hope it will be fun and success. With God blessing, everything will be fine.

HUHU. Have a bad day today. I just got my tool box yesterday, so i use my own tools to do some practical works today. (Was very happy, being able to use own tools, i have been waiting a month for it). As i was packing my tools after done my practical work (today practical work is to dissemble the drum brake and then assemble it back. It's not very hard, just tedious with all those springs), i noticed that my L handle and my socket size 21 is missing! That socket is needed to remove the tire's nut, which i will be doing a lot this week, as i am learning about brakes system this week. Looks like i will need to buy it soon, it's a very important tool. But before that, i need to get a tool box for my tools! (The academy supplies tools that come with a tool bag instead). Not that the tool bag is bad, it's just that it's hard to look for tools when all things jumble up together. A tool box will be more organize and easier to look for tools, especially sockets.

Temperature Check

Recently the spread of the pandemic virus has been very scary indeed. Many peoples have taken some serious precaution about it. Despark, the place where i am currently studying, has also take up some precaution. The most noticeable one it compulsory temperature checking for every student who is coming to school EVERYDAY. Yes, everyday. Imagine, have to line up while trainers take student's temperature one by one. Personally, i don't really mind, as i understand that it is necessary. But because of students love to arrive to school at last minutes, well, with that much students, we only get into class at around 9.30 am usually. (Class start at 9 am). Wish they could be more efficient on this.

Experience with Tear Gas

Today have been a bad day yesterday. Well, it's 2 in the morning now, so yes, it's yesterday. I was suppose to go to my aunt's house in Pandan Perdana. As i was travelling back from Klang, i notice a lot of people in the train station in KL Sentral. I thought it was normal as there is a PC fair in KLCC. As i reach Masjid Jamek to switch LRT (Putra to Star) around 2pm, i notice there is some sort of riot going on. I sort of, froze there, as the riot happen right in front of the Star LRT station. Then, i hear something fired, and there is smokes. Then suddenly everyone start running away from it, and i know at once that it is the tear gas.

I ran too, then stop at top of a staircase with some peoples. I thought everything will back to normal after a while. Then suddenly, i smell smokes (like those from fireworks), and suddenly my nose and eyes hurt. Knowing that the gas have spread, i ran further away from the smoke, barely able to see what's in front because of tears. Luckily there are some kind person who offer me water to clear my eyes. The tear gas effect gone after a while. They really mean tear gas, that. I make it safely back to my aunt's house one hour after that, having to walk to Puduraya for that LRT. What a day.....
