Malaysia Week

Hi guys. Malaysia week was so much fun! I went to Palau Sibu which is a coastal survivor site. The bus ride to there was so bumpy and I almost got sick but luckily didn't. When we arrived at the dock to take the boat, we had to wait for the boat to come. The people in my site had to split into 2 groups. One of the groups had to wait but I was in the 1st group to go. Stopping at a dock across on the other side of the resort we were staying at. My friend clutched my arm because of the dogs that looked scary. Rizal thankfully found the path to our resort and we got there in less than 30 minutes. On the hike there we saw many leaves, a dirty well, lots of sand and a few dogs. When we got there we were greeted by Stuart, Sam and Darrin. While there we learned a few survival skills such as building a shelter, making a fire and cooking our food. We had some scavenger hunts as well as a lot of hiking around the island. We worked with compasses so much during the scavenger hunt. Our prize was 100 plus. We went swimming everyday at least 30 minutes. We could use boggy boards and snorkeling gear such as the mask and the tube to breath. We had to practice survival on a different island and it was so much fun but the sun's rays were beating down on me and I got a pretty mean sunburn on my face. On the last day we had a bonfire and told scary stories. There were 3 tribes and we each had to preform a dance/song. All in all it was terrific except for the part that I got sunburn.

My Life

Hi I'm Steph and I live in KL/Malaysia. There is so much to tell about my life. Well when I go to school I feel like I have freedom though our school makes us wear uniforms. While at school my teachers are very nice to their students and we get to experience many fun things such as Malaysia Week, projects, and even normal work. At school you get lockers to put your things in to prevent having someone take your things. Everything at school is so colorful and pretty. Also we get so many holidays off. We work hard and we get rewarded.
But on the other hand when I go home I have to face my 15 year old brother. Usually my brother is kind but not to my friends. He usually hates my friends, I don't know why. When I go home I do my homework and by the way we usually don't get so much homework. Usually doing homework is fun. After you sleep you wake up at a reasonable time to get on the bus (unless you go by car). Then onwards back to school!
Anyway as you know my name is Steph and I live in Malaysia. My home country is California. I was born in San Jose but we used our Fremont address and lived there for maybe 3 years. While I was there I would usually go to San Fransisco to visit relatives. In California you might want to go to the Golden Gate Bridge and also go sightseeing like I have. If you visit the Golden Gate Bridge I am sure you will be amazed. While in Malaysia I have been to the Twin Tower!
