So today, we didn’t do much except cut onions. Everything else was done. My head wasn’t clear this morning, if you know why. I was damn sleepy too. Slept at 4am. lols. So everything was blur blur. Wasn’t really “open” to listening in on others so no emo homeless stories today ya? But got other stories…
So anyways. We cut onions and sat down till feeding time. While sitting down, I was trying to study my Conflict Resolution. TRYING. lols. Of course I got distracted. Mr Carl gave me a book to read. It was about refugees in Malaysia. The book is called “The Revolving Door. Modern Day Slavery” by Tenaganita.
You know how you watched slavery/human trafickking shows on HBO? Like how they give you a shithole place to stay, rice with salted fish to eat. Cold water to bathe at night, probably after 3 days bathe one time. That same similar stories are happening right here in Malaysia. In refugee detention camps. How freaking sad, but reality bites. I really thought that it only happened like in Thailand (you know how your mum always say people will kidnap you, cut your fingers, and send you to Thailand to beg for food?). Migrants here in Malaysia are treated like that. Like shit man. The authorities are ill treating migrants who actually have a UNHCR cards(Identification card as a migrant by UN). they’re sorta illegal here in Malaysia, but they should not be treated like shit right?
I want to buy that book and finish reading the stories. The book contains stories about how they were treated by the authorities. Some of them were even brought to Malaysia-Thai border and were asked to call someone to prepare money to bring them back by paying them lah. If not they will be sold to the fisherman to be worked as a slave. like wtf man. Slavery still exists in this world. Malaysia somemore, wtf!!!!
The world is so unfair!!
So today, Mr Carl played a little game with them. So cute I tell you! They were given a paper with some football teams on it. They were supposed to predict the scores. The closest one will be give prizes
- 1st Prize 20 packets of Maggi Mee
- 2nd Prize 8 packets of Maggi Mee

LOLS. So cute. Everyone took part for a chance to win some food.
Food today: Fried ikan bilis, eggs, beans. No soup/curry today. So very dry.
There weren’t enough food today. So many people. Almost 120 people came today. So we were assigned to give out biscuits to them, since they were still hungry. 5/6 each. Some of them tapau-ed them home..
Really, today no stories. hahaha. feel so useless without a story to tell today. hahaha.. was too engrossed with my book today to eavesdrop to any conversation.
Owh wells. Exam tmr at 9am. need to read one more topic and then i’m done for the day. damn tired man.
