Happy People Dancing On Planet Earth

we bought our air travel tickets yesterday,
thank goodness half of it was sponsored by the airline,
cos if everything was original priced,
it would've burn a hole in us.

i believe many of us come across the question,
"why would you want to volunteer?"

there are many ways to answer, and i've always answer,
"I believe 1 person doing 1 thing
has a ripple effect on all, whether
intentionally or unintentionally,"

thus, i want to dedicate this video to all my fellow volunteer friends,
and also to those who wish us success & support us all the way,
with all your help & wishes, we just maybe able to bring more happiness,
to a lot more people than we will ever know!!!

This is the Video Dedication to All Of you. :)
IT IS A YOUTUBE PHENOMENON WITH OVER 10 MILLION HITS!
I LOVE THE MUSIC & I WISH TO DEDICATE TO YOU!

北京 --- 这么近,那么远 ---

Dear MOVsP10,
KK, 看到你这份mail 有一种特别的感觉。。。 尤其是那一段 “10 MOVs quan jia fu only appear 101 time”,好像那种“这么近,那么远的感觉”。
虽然奥运将要开始,但我们的关系好像要告一段落。在这段时期里大家都不分彼此,恪尽所能,那无限的奉献精神让我服到五体投地。在此先行个敬礼给在座的各位。

还有终于看到我们真正的航班 “MH370”,这号码让我感觉到“那么远,这么近”。。。 我会永远记住这个“MH370”。
假如有机会当导演我会开拍这部“MH370” 来打倒王家卫的 “2046”。 呵呵呵。。。

当然最后不忘多谢我们真正的监护人 秋俊哥,假如没有你的话我们这班“奥运志工” 应该不会产生吧!所以说你才是我们这班MOVs 的再生爸爸。
哈哈哈。。。 好了我们已准备好了,你就放心去忙你的事啦!接下来就让我们来吧 !

“北京我来了” YEAH 。。。

Dear All,

... 10 of us take same flight MH370 0635hrs arrive Beijing

10 MOVs quan jia fu only appear 101 time during 1st Aug 9.30pm-10pm check in time at KLIA. So if others press want photo, this is the only time. Because when we touched down Beijing, we might not see each other due to assigned to separate venues and hostels ( We stay 4 hostels & on duty in 5 venues )

我的故事


男主角已经在半途中杀出来了,觉得有点紧张!谁才是真正的女主角,大家拭目以待吧!这次不当女主角最大的原因是不想和那位男主角一起搭档。。hehe。大家都有不同的故事,先让我和大家分享故事的第一集吧。。

16.11.2007
在面试的当天我是以平常心到马华大厦,对自己的期望一般只希望能尽全力做好本份。一踏进笔试厅,一片陌生的脸孔,除了我的一位朋友其余的都不认识。再过大约十五分钟,就由中國駐馬來西亞大使程永華及罗秋俊等负责人致欢迎词。接下来就是第一个环节笔试的开始。我没有预测有笔试题,还以为只有口试。笔试占百分之五十,口试也一样。输在起跑点的我笔试成绩公布时就远远被其他人抛在后头,总是觉得很不甘心。我不想因为笔试的结局让我被隔在门外,若是这样一切实在不值得!当时的我的确真的很不甘心,不轻易放弃的我只告诉自己笔试失分已成事实,过去的再也挽救不回。要使自己脱颖而出被录取就得把另一个环节的口试做到最好。我告诉自己我一定要在口试环节以50/50荣获27位面试者中最优秀的一位,只有这样我才会被录取。我一定要和我的朋友一起被录取然后一起到北京实现我们的梦想,一个都不能少! 我不想只有他被录取,而我被隔外;那当然更不想只有我被录取,而他被隔外!那种心情真的是多么的残忍!我们一定要一起赴京奥!怎样才能让自己在这场战里胜出呢?如果没在这一个环节好好表现自己,那梦想就会毁灭。我想要得到的东西我一定会尽我的本分争取它。不到黄河心不死。。我以最佳的表现完成了口试。我是幸运的最终还是MOVs里的其中一位。现实就是那么的惨酷,我们只打赢一场战,一得一失。输在没有经验的他,奥运梦想就这样远离而去。。。。不能和你一起实现梦想,我深感痛心!我相信有朝一日你一定会再实现你的目标和梦想以弥补无缘出征北京奥运的人生最大遗憾!!!你一定可以的。。。朋友,祝福你!
人生因目标而成长,因梦想而伟大。参加奥运是很多人的梦想!我们一行十人是非常的幸运。“我们很高兴地正式通知您,您作为数千万海外华侨华人和留学生的代表,已经被北京奥组委正式录用为赛会志愿者。”当我收到此信时的那份喜悦是无法形容的。一路走来的付出都是值得的。现在的心情充满着期待。。开心的是奥运倒数计只剩17天,出发倒数计却是10天。。这次有缘赴京奥,真的是我人生中的一大喜事!我选择了赴京奥,牺牲了出席我的硕士毕业典礼(8月5日08年)。这一切都是值得的,因为有机会当奥运志愿者就只有那么的一次。放弃了它就是一生中最大的遗憾!开始的时候觉得不出席毕业典礼好像有点不舍因为付出了那么多的努力却不能自己感染台上的那一刻,最终我还是选择了京奥。
能够顺利至今,要感谢的人就是在背后默默努力协助我们从区区的四位名额增加到十位的阳光青年总执行长罗秋俊先生,他无条件的为我们付出,这种精神是值得赞扬的!在此也非常感谢中国大使馆一直所给予配合。

但愿我们赴京顺利,全力以赴,做到最好!!!

SPIDER MAN 的金句 “当你能力越大,你的责任就越大”

亲爱的 MovP10..

离奥运的日子越来越近。你们的见报率就越来越密。从当初的奥运志工 interview (面试),没想到之后还有那么多interview。 从杂志 到报章,然后电台,再到电视新闻。当然这些 interview 是好是坏还是见人见自,有人欢喜有人忧,当然会有一些人会认为这班 奥运志工是在博宣传提高自己的知名度,还是真心要去服务的??
小弟在这先对曾访问过我们的媒体说声 RIBUAN TERIMA KASIH / THANK YOU VERY MUCH, 因为对我们这班 K-叻啡 有兴趣。
然后再跟那些眼红的FANs说声抱歉,因为我们的爆红令到你的荷尔蒙失调以致造成你的情绪不稳定。不过小弟可啪烂心口的跟你说我们没你想的那么Cheap,其实我们都很大压力的,大家都不知道要面对这么多媒体的,当初的目的只是想平平安安的去奥运完成自己的梦想吧了。只是后来主办单位告诉我们 “现在你们是代表马来西亚去宣传,就如公关大使, 如果连在自己国家的媒体都呈现不好的话,出到国外不是更丢脸”。 其实依小弟这么多天的观察,原来我们这班所谓的 PERFECT 10 在面对访问时是那么菜鸟的,只不过逼到埋身才无计可施,硬硬上吧了!

前天看到 KK 的赠语 "... waw, ur guy bcome more popular"。 对于以上的赠语小弟想引用 SPIDERMAN 里面的金句来“当你能力越大,你的责任就越大”,而小弟自创一句来赠回大家 “当你的越受欢迎,你的责任更大”。 我想这两句会有异曲同工的解释。
你可从世界任何一个角落发生的事件来引用以上金句。。 就如香港 阿娇的 “天真论” (因为受欢迎吗), 或我国羽球一哥 “李生” (因为能力大, 所以肩负为国争光的责任就越大)。
所以嘛!无论我国奥运选手也好,志工团也好。不要因为责任大就增加自己的压力,就拿出你们平时的表现就可以了,因为 “你们是最棒的,你知道吗?” (对不起,又再炒 劉华的金句 :p )
不过接下来这句是小弟的... “责任创造使命,使命创造命运,命运创造历史”。
正所谓 “人死留名,树枯留皮”。去奥运的兄弟姐妹们,大块儿一起创造我们的历史吧 ! YEAH ... !!


Sorry, 开始时太过兴奋忘记介绍自己。我就是MovP10 的Hancock (通常主角是半中间才杀出的),虽然开始时让各位孤身作战,不过我答应大家以后 “you never walk alone" (Liverpool FC theme) 哈哈哈。 。。

olympic dreams

北京奥运会倒时计23天,即将离我不远了。人生因目标而成长,因梦想而伟大。我把目标放在学业和事业上,把梦想放在北京奥运会, 然后尽量将一切烦恼都抛在后头。。。很盼望能够成功以志愿者的身份参加奥运会,振臂高呼,光宗耀祖,这不愧是我人生的一大喜事!

北京,一直是我想再去的地方- 年悬挂毛泽东巨像的天安门广场,金碧辉煌的皇城紫禁城,世界七大奇迹之一的天下第一关万里长城,慈禧太后的寝宫乐寿颐和园,文化遗产明十三陵等等。。。我准备好了,今年的8月8日我会在‘鸟巢’见证中国国家主席胡锦涛宣布第廿九届奥林比克运动会在文化之都北京正式开幕。 ‘同一个世界,同一个梦想’,让我们以激昂的心情来迎接北京奥运!

发挥志愿者精神!

7月10日八位京奥志愿者面对了媒体,大家侃侃而谈,热情澎湃,心中更是充满期待热心服务奥运,体现真正的志愿服务精神。

从6月12日收到正式录取信以来,我们这十位大部分都有工作在身,一切筹备工作都不容易,但大家都分工,发挥自己熟悉的范围,主动与积极参与,尽量让两位在外地的队友无后顾之忧。在这个小圈里就已经发挥了团队与志愿精神、成了赴京前的暖身运动。我这老大哥也感到安慰!



真正的挑战会在执行任务的时候,希望各位弟妹拥有正确的心态来服务奥运,我们是来奉献力量,不是来玩玩,凑热闹而已。我对弟妹们有几个期待:



1) 这是个世界最大的体育盛会,主办当局对海外志愿者的安排未必尽善尽美,我们不要埋怨,而是同理心来看待。

2)不要计较工作性质和工作量,志愿精神是神圣的。

3) 可能岗位关系,连进体育馆感受气氛都没有份儿 (这是最坏打算)

4) 注意纪律、言行举止,因为你是代表着马来西亚!

5) 注意身体健康、饮食、睡眠。长时间执行任务,很考耐力与韧力。



最后,引用慧雯的那句口号:我们要做“超级志愿者”!加油!

Wanted: fringing Olympics commentators


Original News Site - Click Here


Ever wanted the whole world to hear your sports play-by-play?

Ever thought to be a commentator but your tongue gets twisted when you try to talk that fast?

Now’s your chance to jump straight to the Olympics no less, even without a Sports Channel CV!

If you’re already booked to go to China to either participate (good luck!) or watch The Games (good for you!), then we may have an offer you can’t refuse. We’re looking for fringsters at the Olympics to share their experiences with the rest of us less-lucky folks who won’t see it live and who can’t be glued to our TVs while at work or running around all day!


We will happily provide the fring Olympics commentators with a 3.5G mobile phone with GPS, camera, local SIM card and (almost) unlimited data plan. In return, the fringCommentator will regularly micro-blog with quick updates & pictures (the winner, the loser, the cutest flag-bearer, the poor girl who lost her swimsuit, the poor guy who dropped the baton in the 4×100 meter final… you get the idea). If you’re a real sports enthusiast you may focus more on the records; if you’re more of a night owl, we may all live vicariously through your night-time escapades in the Olympic village - pics & videos most welcome!

Interested fringentators should apply here with a quick intro why you’d like to play and why you can share regular captivating microblogs from China with other fringsters worldwide.
Remember to include your fring ID so we can discuss details.

Here's one of the youth camp,
that they invited us along to help,
personally i'm way over that 'holiday camp' since high school
but because of the other volunteer members,
i guess it would be fun to mingle around!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
it was Christmas month in 2007....
Joyce, Tania, Loke & I was assigned to take care of
30 kids and to plan for a visit to an Old Folks Home.
The Meet n Greet old folks in a nice chirpy way!
Group 1 - to decorate the mini Christmas Tree
(which cost only RM40 for everything!)
Group 2 - practice Chinese Christmas Carols
Group 3 - hang out/ chat / breakfast /
massage the elders.
They are amazing these kids, multilingual!
Apart from Malay/English/Mandarin/
Cantonese/hokkien/hakka/
teochew/foochow they can do ANY dialects
and communicate with them!
the rock and roll Atuk, we call him, :)
and he speaks only english and cantonese!
They must be really old, cos they told us stories
from the Japanese Occupation days, and
they were then about 7 yrs old.....
Group 4 - clean up the garden (exterior)
and also the rooms (interior)
--- TA-DA !!! END RESULT--Dong Zhi - a chinese festival, (Winter Solace)
celebrating the arrival of winter in December,
a time where family gathers and eat this pink little
flour balls...cooked in ginger soup,
dip with peanut sauce.
some like it, but some doesnt,
me? im not crazy about it,
but i always like to eat it if there's some!
That's Tania behind me, and directly opposite us
in orange is Joyce, and Eric in the front row.
group singing thingy
barbeque....corn corn corn... didnt eat it though,
so we are grateful for the support they
have been giving us, we also wish them
all the best in organizing more activities
in future, and hopefully, the legacy continues!
