Dato' Dr. A. Samad Said...

Assalamualaikum.... Hi again.. Wow, it's been crazy this last couple of weeks. There were too much programs. They were not boring, very much fun actually. But, our schedule is packed. Plus, my school is closing next Tuesday for this year. My class didn't have the chance to throw our year-end-party or farewell-party yet. We plan to do it o the very last day of school, which is Monday.

Oh, sorry.. I've drifted from my main topic. Well, this week is the week for 'Kem Membaca 1 Malaysia' in my school. So, there are many activities prepared, especially for form 3 students. On Monday, we had some sort of seminar for writing literature. My school invited En. Uthaya Sankar SB to teach us that day. He's actually an Indian, which makes it pretty irony. We learnt a lot from him, he's such a good teacher. I really admire him. On Wednesday, today actually, my school invited 'sasterawan negara', Dato' Dr. A. Samad Said. Yeah, it's so exciting. I just can't believe he's right there on the stage of my school's hall. It's actually a dialog session between 'Pak Samad' and again, En. Uthaya Sankar SB. 'Pak Samad' shares experiences and precious thoughts of his. The most interesting part of the session is when the audiences (teachers and students) had a chance to ask questions to 'Pak Samad'. And, they will receive En. Uthaya's book entitled Rudra Avatara and also have a chance to take pictures with 'Pak Samad'. PLUS, the picture will be published in Sinar Harian. At first, only a couple of students have the guts to do just that. Later on, many students competing with each other to ask questions, as the time is running out. The funniest question is from Ustaz Yahya. Many people ask questions regarding 'Pak Samad's view about the literature nowadays and how to nurture it in teenagers. But, Ustaz Yahya ask for tips from 'Pak Samad' in how to stay young and healthy. The hall just roar with laughter. Though, I really impressed with 'Pak Samad'. In the age of 75, he still got great strength. The session ends with a poem performed by 'Pak Samad' himself. Yeah, it's such an unbelievable and unforgettable experience;)
Well, that's all for now. Hope you enjoy reading my post.
Assalamualaikum..
