Chu 2 - The Busiest Day

From the early morning, my eldest sister and I were going to search for an wine opener in the town. I have bought some food to bring back to Sabah. We have spent fewe hours to find that opener as well as looking for food.

At 2 p.m., we finally reached home. I have some rest and start helping out my parents in the kitchen. I have learnt some recipes from my dad. Such a precious experience!

In the evening, all the relatives came to my home and have dinner together. We were having buffet style for dinner. My cousins and I also played some games. All of us are having fun time in this day!

Hanging out with him... We went to cinema for movie, but the movie is not so good, not up to my expectation. I also bought a tin of biscuits to bring back to Sabah because that tin of biscuits is so delicious and cheap!

One of my challenges - Blood Donation

By Yvonne Phan 22:58:00 No comments

Today, I have made a very great decision which is donating blood. Before this, I have tried to join blood donation campaign but due to certain circumstances, I can't. Now, I have finally donated blood. I am proud of myself. Although I am afraid of blood and injections, I confront all these.

I am a Girl Guide! Yeah! First time donating blood!!!

After few hours, my hand became this.

Have a little bad feelings when my hand became this.

Luckily I have seniors who are BSMM and they helped me! Thanks!

Hope I can recover soon!

Our blood flows in our body and it is produced every day. Why don't we challenge ourselves? Not to afraid of injections and blood, do some charity work! A pack of blood helps people who need. There are a lot of people waiting for our blood in order to survive. Do something meaningful! I felt very happy when I knew that I am a successful donor! I am extremely HAPPY today!!!

P/S: I lose weight!!! I have three meals a day... Having rice... Eating full breakfast everyday. Jogging and doing stretching almost every day and I lose weight! Wow! A great great day!

Kundasang trip

Kundasang.. It is one of the places which I wish to visit most. Finally, in last year, I have a chance to go there with my buddy. It takes almost three hours to drive there before we could reach Kundasang town from Pekan Tuaran
