If you fail to plan, then you plan to fail.

Before I got chance to join ALAM, I worked as a fruit plucker in Australia. I live in Mildura which is 8 hours from Melbourne city buy train include bus. You must change transit after 6 hours in train then change with bus for another 2 hours to arrive Mildura station. My house in Red Cliff district and might take around 15 minutes by car from the station.

Mildura Station

My housemates are about 10 persons and all of them are Malaysian. Trust me, I am the youngest among of them. Every week the owner of the house, Uncle Ben comes and collects the rent money. If Malaysia we might pay our rent by monthly right? But their country pay any rent like house by weekly. We also collects and share our money to buy food and anything that we need every week. Ok done about this, at least you guys have some knowledge how do I live and still alive there. Hahaha.

Bungalow size house

Then I worked at orange farm not too far from my house which is about 15 minutes journey. We also bought a second hand van for our daily transportation. Usually we departs at 7:40 am and arrive the farm before 8:00 am.

My housemates and our van behind there

Every day we already had our breakfast at home on ourselves (masak sendiri2). Some of my friends also bring their own bekal to farm for their lunch. Like me, I just eat much in the morning and straight meet the dinner at 7:00 pm. No lunch for me because it depends on your own budget and I prefer to save more money to bring back Malaysia. Huhu

People from other country also worked there. This guy and his girlfriend are from Germany.

It is depends on what season if you want to work at farm area. During my time, grape season just finish and it is time for orange to earn benifits. At farm, the most important thing that you have to do is fast. Your salary is depends on how much fruit that you got per day.

Your money based on how many bin that you can fill. Let me rest and smoke for a while.

But in one day I can achieve 100 dollars and it is about RM400 if converted to Malaysian Ringgit. That range is not the highest because there are many experienced worker who can achieve more than that. Like I said you must fast doing your job and usually they are already worked there for a long time. I just about in learning to pluck the fruit because there are also many skill to pluck the fruit quickly and properly. The contractor who is your in charge can detect whether you are doing your job properly or not. So don't you think it just easy work and can get more money. Hahaha

Life is not that easy guys.

After work, all of us back home and prepare for dinner. But have a shower first la. Ok here we already planned and put a duty for every person in the house. Like me, I don't know how to cook so my duty is like wash the dishes and etc. But don't worry because I got 3 person in the house who are talented and have more experience in cooking.

Preparing dinner every evening.

But my experience living in Australia is just about one month only after my mom (ibu) ask me to go back Malaysia. The purpose is she ask me to further my study in maritime industry which is to be a cadet in ALAM.

So goodbye Aussie and let me sailing on to my dream

Best sword ever created in history

One Slice , One Kill 1 . Napoleon's Sword On the battlefield Napoleon carried a pistol and a sword. He owned a large collection of arms and artillery. His weapons were one of a kind and included the best materials. In the summer of 2007, a gold-encrusted sword that once belonged to Napoleon was auctioned off in France for more than $6.4 million dollars. The sword was used by Napoleon in battle. In the early 1800s, Napoleon presented the weapon to his brother as a wedding gift. The sword was passed down from generation to generation, never leaving the Bonaparte family. In 1978, the sword was declared a national treasure in France and the winner of the auction was not identified. 2 . Sword of Mercy The Sword of Mercy has a broken blade, which is cut off short and square. In 1236, the weapon was given the name curtana and has since been used for royal ceremonies. In ancient times it was a privilege to bear this sword before the king. It was considered a merciful gesture. The stor...

TASK VS WORKLOAD

1.TASK a  task  is an activity that needs to be accomplished within a defined period of time or by a deadline to work towards work-related goals. A task can be broken down into assignments which should also have a defined start and end date or a deadline for completion. One or more assignments on a task puts the task under execution. Completion of all assignments on a specific task normally renders the task completed. Tasks can be linked together to create dependencies. Tasks completion generally requires the coordination of others. Coordinated human interaction takes on the role of combining the integration of time, energy, effort, ability, and resources of multiple individuals to meet a common goal. Coordination can also be thought of as the critical mechanism that links or ties together the efforts on the singular level to that of the larger task being completed by multiple members. Coordination allows for the successful completion of the othe...

Symbols represent a wide variety of things. When people see a particular symbol, they associate it with something meaningful or standard. With this, each country has their own national symbols to identify themselves from others and to unite its citizens through nationalism. Check out these official national symbols of the Philippines: Credit: Google NATIONAL ANIMAL: CARABAO If common men have dogs as their best friend, then the carabao or Philippine water buffalo is the Filipino farmer’s best friend. They’re beasts of burden, able to do almost everything that needs to be done on the rice fields, including carry the farmer and his goods. But, without any laws to recognized them, they’ll remain an unofficial symbol of the country.

As popular as it is for making desserts, there is no law that proclaims it as a national symbol. Credit: Go...
