my house in Thailand:
my siblings @homestay mates in Thailand!
my siblings @homestay mates in Thailand!
The SSEAYP'08 Homestay in Thailand was the 4th homestay during which was held on November 2008. It was the HAPPENING and the most memorable homestay among the rest 5 homestay:) It's because of my sporting and FUN homestay mates...there are 10 PYs all together. because our foster family were a big family. they are siblings and relatives ..so they have connection one and another. so we, the 10 PYs become like siblings!!! The great thing is..all of us can speak Malay Languange- because it consists of Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore and Brunei Participant Youth! :) -They are : ME, Kak Dahlia,Bro Lan, and Kak Wan from Malaysia, Bro Ariffin, Kak Khaty and Kak Rina from Brunei, Kak Jannah and Bro Nat from Indonesia and Bro Rezal from Singapore. And guess what? it make our family become SoooooooooooooooooooNoisy. yet FUN to the max! ;) We had pointed Bro Rezal as our big bro and Kak Dahlia as our big sister :p
Our foster family were a big family, and they're Muslims Thai. Our home is located in the Muslim are called Tungkru Town. It's an amazing experience for me cause I can observe the Muslim Thai daily life:) and it's good for us also coz we had no problems on Halal Foods in Thai ;)
My mom in Thailand is very young women..and have two pretty and handsome kids name Hawa and i forgot my lil bro's name. hehe. my mom don't want us to call her mommy..she prefer us to call her Kak Mai..Our family we're not Thai people who can speak Malay..but they understand Malay words. So our conversation were in English eventhough their English we're not that good, but understandable :) But Kak Mai's @my mom's English is very fluent because she used to study and married with one Italy man. But she divorced and 1 of her daughter. Her 1st daughter is now with his husband . and now just Hawa and her bro live with her.
She said her 1st daughter look alike me. That's why she's very graceful to have me as her adopt daughter. And she said, she's very sad if one day, her husband will think about to take her daughter and son who live with her now when they're 21 yr old :( I hope he wouldn't//.
DAY 1
We had a very great time in Thailand. And of course, we're not missed the shopping opportunity in Thailand! I still can remember the funny moments in Thailand. First is..a WELCOMING DINNER held only for 10 of us! Since my foster aunt, Mommy Fatima own a Nursing College, she organized a dinner for us which was attended by the nursing students and some V.I.P from Tungkru. It's was very suprising ceremony for us and we're overwhelmed like a very special guests. We're very touched..and 'confused' at times...because it's a bit grand!..not so grand, but it's really happening!

Welcoming dinner
with some of the guests at the back.During the welcoming ceremony, we have to introduce ourselves in front of the guests.. and there's some speech from the V.I.P and from our foster parents. Mostly in Thai Language. and there's a lady who is said to be our 'relative', who is a teacher, who translate all the speech in English. to make us understand. They seems like very happy and welcome us sincerely. Evennthough we're sooooooooooooooooooooooo tired, but we still smile professionally to everyone who came. who are very excited to meet us as Participant Youth of SSEAYP2008 @Youth Ambassador from Asean countries.

After the speech, we had a dinner with Thai foods. Nyummx3! Very delicious. Hot and spicy! I like the Tomyamkung! And after dinner, we watched a Thai traditional dances by small kids.. So cute! and also a 'Dikir Barat' from the Nursing students. They speak Malay Language in Kelantanese slanga! So fun! hahah.Then the funny thing is..after the performance, we're invited to dance with them in Thai dance.. At the fisrt time..we just follow...but..the musics repeated so many times! until we felt very tired! and pray hard so that they can stopped the music. But didn't show our tired face..but we try to give our happy smile professionally.

After we having a several round at the night market and bought some things (i bought 2Thai Skirts) :p , we decide to go home. I can't remember the exact time. But i think it's near 3 a.m. Before we went home, we had a 2 dinner, or we may call it as 'late supper' .Hahah. We had some porridge + Salty fish at the roadside food stall.Everybody was sleepy at that time. But still enjoy eating it! ;P

Enough with the dances, we also had to be like popular celebrity who have to smile when they snap the camera for photo-session. It's very funny to recall that moment. Because, there are soooooo many photo-session. And everybody wanna to take photo with us. The same goes to the nursing students, i can't remember who and how many students come to me and asked to take photo with them :p

Mommy Fatimah is the one in scarf.second from left.
After the tiring welcoming ceremony, we don't want to waste our time to go back and sleep, but we asked our foster parents to bring us anywhere which is interesting. Due to the time, midnight, we're brought to one midnight market. I cant remember the name. It's similiar to Downtown in KL. There's so many shops and things sold. At the fist time, Bro Rezal's mommy- Mommy Fatimah doesn't give permission to go, because she said. it's dangerous for us and worried for our safety. But then Bro Rezal persuade her, and finally, yeah, we can go! ;) (no photos)
