ROTI PP in memory.....
10th September 2009 was really a sad and misery day for me. Although already known it will happen but I really cannot expect that it happen so fast without waiting for me to go back. As I have planned to accompany for "his" last days, but things are not going in my will. PP had left us in the noon time, very sad and tragic too.
ROTI PP had accompanied me for many years (11 years). He had been with me since my PMR. SPM, STPM, Bac. Degree and also teaching Diploma. He was there whenever i am happy and sad. Although he couldn't talk but i know that he can understand my feeling and our conversation. He has become our family members for all these years. Whenever we go, we will try to figure out where should he be placed. He is a good and fillial dog for me(sorry I use He instead of It because he is my family member).
I still remember the first day he arrives at our home, he is small and adorable. Even still he was young, he will recognise my school van and always wait for my return from school. As he will also wait for my father to come back to home. Now he has gone, almost everything going to change because without him running here and there, for sure it will be very empty in the home. In my memory, i still remember that i will told him to look after my parents when i am not home, and he will do the same as i told. Whenever my father is sick, he will accompany him besides his bed
As, i thought he can stay longer then i can see him for the last time but my wish is not granted. I am so sorry, my PP. ROTI PP, you will always in my mind and nothing will gonna to replace you for that. As you also didn't wait for my marriage but i am grateful and appreciate for all these times. Thanks PP....................
We always LOVE and MISS you, May You rest in peace and bless for us......

School "workliday"
This year is my first year in teaching. As i am so lucky to get a great school like this and i am also that very lucky to have the chance to teach Year 6 and have to drill them to focus on their public examination(UPSR). It is really not an easy job especially when I am really don't have any experiences in teaching them before and seem like teach them again from Zero to Hero (that is one of my target for this year).
Most of them are good but their attitude in learning and life should be enhance and change. Sometimes i feel that they are not motivated enough to take the exam or they are lack of something important inside them to push them forward. I can say that I already try my very best for this past 9 months in teaching and educating them. Only GOD will know their outcomes in the UPSR later. I do hope all of them can pass (not with flying colours) but pass with the efforts they have shown and what they capable in doing. They are the future pillars of our country.
Here I blessed that they will pass their UPSR in a good manner.... May GOD bless them...... Thanks GOD...:-D

SK Iban Union is my second home now......
After almost 3 months at SK IBAN UNION, Selangau. I really start to like the school very much. I felt like it was my second home(actually it was the truth). I tend to adapt myself to the peaceful environment and getting familiar to it. As i really like the simple life at there in which it had provided me a lot of precious experiences and my eyes really "eyes wide shut".
The pupils, teachers and villagers at there were really very friendly and nice. As I had learnt a lot of things from my colleagues. They had taught me a lot a lot of things from them. As i am staying with my GB, he was just a "caretaker" of BIG child. He will patiently advise me and told me many interesting things around the school. As i was really grateful to him. As other teachers, i was also felt grateful to hem because their patience has taught me a lot a lot of things.
I always remind on this quote when i am teaching, "Do the right things and do it right"

1st day in class
First day to the class (05.01.2009)
In the morning, I waked up early to bath and clean up myself. As I want to get myself ready for the class. I went there by walking, as the school is located on the hill, it is about 81 steps of staircases. Haha!:-)
On the first day, I introduced myself to all the teachers around and talk with them, there is also an aseembly early in the morning. My PK1 has intoduced me to the pupils. My school only consists of 21 pupils exclude the kindie pupils. It is really a small school. As in the afternoon, I joined other teachers for the gotong-royong project. From there, I know the teachers more andunderstand the living here. About 5.30pm, my GB has come back to school; he also came with my new colleague.
Nothing much happen in the first day to class, I was being appointed as the class teacher of Year 5 which consist of 2 pupils only. Hopefully everything will be fine in the upcoming days in SK Iban Union.

SK IBAN UNION?1?= my 1st school
Selangau, Sibu……..SK Iban Union!?!
About 7.30am (02.01.2009), I have reached “Pekan Selangau”, and then we unloaded all things from the bus and went to the Coffee shop nearby for breakfast. I didn’t take heavy breakfast; I only take some bread and a cup of coffee.
Then I walked to a shop nearby with my mum. After picked up somethings and food then I called up my GB. I told him that I already at Pekan Selangau and he told me to wait for him at there for a while. I am so anxious to meet with him. After about 20minutes, he has shown up and after a short introduction then I asked him about the handphone signal, so unexpectedly that a P3 area has handphone signal, I am so gald with it and so do my parents. My mum planned to go to the school with me but after my GB said that the wharf is quite far from Pekan Selangau then I have told my mum not to worry about me, as my GB also told her not to worry as he will take care of me. The news that availability of handphone signal is really delighted me. But when thinking of need to use boat, my heart + feeling become worried and down to half excitement. But I am really grateful to my GB because he has shown a good guide and GB to me. He seems to be very caring for his staffs (in fact it is truth), know how to take care of others. With this, I have become less worried about my trip to the school. I put 100% confidence to him in taking me to the school.
We went back to my GB’s house to pick up the Motor of the boat. Then after a while, we set off to our school (on the way, we drop by to buy motor oil). After about 15minutes on the way to our wharf, I asked my GB how far is our trip to the wharf from Pekan Selangau? He said it is around 86km. Wow! Really very far o!!! Then we arrived at Angah’s shop around 11.30am, after a short tea then we went to the wharf. I have seen the boat that we are going to use, it didn’t shock me much but it is bigger than I thought. As I am a “super heavyweight” person then it is really worried me if use a small boat. Luckily it is not that small boat. Then we have set off to our school after loading all things on the boat. On the way, I saw the river banks were covered by jungles trees, after about 15min, I saw a longhouse (Rh Lasit), then after that along the way, I also one or two houses on the riverbank. Then after around 30minutes, we have reached another longhouse (Rh Bagul), at that time both of legs are really “senseless” or numb o! Finally, we have reached my school’s wharf after about one hour boat trip. I just cannot get up yet because my legs are numb and I asked my GB to go first without me. After a few minutes my GB came back to wharf to pick me up, then I slowly stand up and get onto the wharf. The drama begin, I nearly fall down (because of legs’ numb and reckless), luckily my GB able to catch me up and furthermore one of my legs kick away the boat (OMG), I really grateful for my GB for catching me and sorry for him too for my reckless. Then after the clumsy opening, what is worse is at the next action, I carried all the things to beneath of my quarter then when I passed one of the teacher’s quarters then I really fall down this time, my legs are in V-shape ahead, I really feel funny for myself. Then after all those “early-bird” shows, luckily all things end well, I moved all my things into the house. And I try to call my parents that I ahev reached at my school and also sms my sister. As my GB told me which is my room then I begin to clean it up. As my GB is cooking lunch for me and himself. Wow! I am really lucky and grateful to have a GB like him.
After taking the lunch, I continued to clean up my rooma dan tidy up everything. It is already 4pm. It is really quite tiring too, after settle up almost 75% of my things then I take time to relax and I have met with 3 other teachers, who lived opposite to my house. Then about 6pm, the generator is switch on then I switch on the lights and fans in the house. That night, I did not take dinner with my GB because I eat the packed rice which bought by my mum in Pekan Selangau. Then I enjoyed the TV with my GB and asked him about when will the generator being switch off, at that time I realised that it will be swtich off by 10pm++. That night I went to sleep early around 9pm++ because I am really tired. Tomorrow is a brand new day in SK Iban Union.

Pre-Posting III
Pre-Posting Part III (Final part)
31st dec for most of us would be a very fun and interesting but not for me this year. I have to prepare many things for my posting. I have gone to the supermarket with my parents to get some utensils and foods for my “new place”.
Some of my friends have called me up for outing in the countdown party, but I just don’t have the mood to join them, I rather join my family in the house.
Soon the 1st day of 2009 has arrived; it is really a new beginning for me in taking multiple challenges, as I have promised myself that some of the promises. I also have dozens of wishes in this year. I am confident that I would achieve it within this year. I will depart to Selangau, Sibu by tonight (01.01.2009) at 10pm by bus. I would be accompanied with my dad and mum. I am quite anxious and worried to be there. All the best, Bong Young Boon in the year 2009.

pOSting????!!!
Today is 26.12.2008, for many of you maybe is a “boxing day” where all of us race to unwrap the Christmas presents. But for me today is the day that I have been waiting for so long that is to know my posting school. I went to JPN Sarawak with 2 of my friends.
I just cannot pretend not to be worried, but seem I am not the only one. We even went for the wrong building. Then we went to the Bangunan Sultan Iskandar. Dup dup dup dup is all what I heard from my heartbeat. So excited and worried. Before I went into hall to get my posting letter, I saw one of the girls is crying maybe it is too far then I began to be even worried. Then when I get the letter, the name is SK IBAN UNION, wow! 1st thing come across my mind is the name so “grammer” and seems to be so modern and most of my friends said like these “you good la, posted so near”, “Selangau is on the way to Bintulu, ai ya why you so lucky punya, see mine is in “Long” area.”, at that time I really believe that it is a roadside school, because so many “experts” said it must be a roadside school. Then we set off to IPTAR for our final exam result, in the car, I even told 1 of my friends to buy life jacket for using boat. The result is quite satisfying me because I get a quite good result.
We decided to have breakfast 1st before going for Christmas visiting. As the topic is still cannot apart from posting. Then we went to our friend’s house, while enjoying the delicious food, we discussed about the posting again. As the new “experts” also said my school sure is by the roadside. I smile and told them erm... I have the same idea. I even make a joke with one of my friends, I told her can start survey new house then buy it next year end. OMG!!!
The real thing when I back at home. To confirm it is a roadside school, and then I called PPDK Selangau. The conversation is briefly like this,
Me : Hello, PPDK Selangau, Saya baru dapat surat posting ni.
Pegawai : Ok...
Me : Saya dapat SK Iban Union, adakah ia terletak di tepi jalan?
Pegawai : Oh! Tidak.., kamu kena masuk ke suatu kampung then pakai boat lebih
kurang 1 jam.
I really shocked with it, so with my mum. I cannot imagine I get a P3 school. Hahahaha!;-)I can see that she is very worried about that. I pretend to console her don’t worry too much. That afternoon, I go to certify my surat angkat sumpah, as my mum and sister went to buy clothes. After that surat sumpah, I have called my GB to confirm the venue, then he has told me the exact thing. OMG! Dream come true?????????? Extra RM1500!!!!! Hahahahaha!:-D. Then I have to pretend steady in order not to let my parent worried about me.
That nite I really cannot sleep so well.
