My Experience at
Kolej Poly Tech MARA (KPTM) Ipoh
When I first time
stepped my foot at Kolej Poly Tech MARA (KPTM) Ipoh, I thought that the
situation will be the same as when I was
at Maktab Rendah Sains MARA (MRSM) Kubang Pasu,2 years ago.At MRSM,I lived
under the supervision of our warden, in
the school compound, with all the food (breakfast, morning tea, lunch, dinner, supper) provided by the
school. I can only go to town 1 time in 2 weeks. At here, I can go out after
class but have to come back to hostel before 11 pm. I was kind of shocked to
hear it. Too much freedom given to us as a student. I prefers to stay in my
hostel than to go out to town because I got no reason whatsoever to go to town.
Unlike them, I love to stay in my hostel, relaxing than going to the town.
When I first time
I enrolled here,I thought that now I am in collage, I thought that everybody
had matured. No one will be pushed around,no one will be left out. After I
stayed here for 2 months,I got slapped by reality really hard. I felt that even
now i am in collage, the attitudes of certain people here are not matured
enough. There are certain type of people
that will throw insults to anybody he thinks is weak. To make things worse,
they teamed up with the people that had the same attitude like them and starts
to making ruckus over something small, and definitely will stands up when one
of his members involved in a silly fight. To be honest with myself, I really
hate these kind of people.
Aboutthe food
here, I was not surprised that I have to buy my own food. At MRSM, the food is
provided by the school. At here, I have to go to “mamak” restaurant to buy some
food. I only buy some food when I’m feeling really really hungry. I usually
bought 2 “roti canai” for dinner. Sometimes, I packed a “nasi kandar” for
dinner. When I’m really low on budget or I did not feeling really hungry, I
only eat fast noodles (maggie). I only withdraw RM 50 each week. I withdraw it
when I really need to use money. If not, I won’t withdraw any.
About the
education here,it’s quite good. I can practically understands all the subject
quite well. All the lecturers here are friendly and are easy to be approached.I
really thanked them for teaching me until this moment. For them being
able to understand me really make me happy. Only a few of my classmates
really understands me. I wanted to say sorry to all the lecturers that teaches
me because sometimes I falls asleep in their classes.
About all the
people here, I think that a lot of my friends back in MRSM were better than
here.Frankly speaking, a lot of people here are just chasing their popularity
and whatsoever. Not to mention, the one who seems more muscular will picked on
the one who seems weak. To make things worse, the starts to form a group that
consists the type of people with the same attitude as them. They will tries to
create problems with other people just to get themselves known to other people.
Another type of friends that I hate the most is the type of friends that loves
to give advice even on the small things, they feel they so perfect that they
have the right to give advice. Their attitude also bad, yet they advice like
they are angels that never do any wrongdoings.
To be honest with
myself, I still can’t move on with my current life. I guess that when you get
over attached with someone, when they start to leave you, you really feel empty
inside out.I,m really glad that I met Lokman and a few of other friends that
really understands me.Before my friends yell at me for making the same mistake
or sleeps in class, I hope they ask themselves first if something might be
bothering me. Did I have any problems? Did I have enough money to eat? Was I
tired? Ialso hopes that my friends place their trust on me because it’s also
crucial for my well being.Last but not least, living is the same thing as
fighting. If I understand that, then I just need the courage to step forward.I
hope I can put my past behind me and starts a new chapter of my life. It’s
really hard to do it but I’ll definitely going
to give my best shot.
