UES 6
For this year, UES has started a new project which concentrates on recycling. We collect plastics, metals, papers, second hand items and used electronics. All the items that we collected will donated to the Eden Handicap Center. This project will be one of our major project this year including the beach cleaning and environmental week. This project will help reducing wasting materials and also help the Eden Handicap Center. Reusing materials that aren't needed anymore is one of the most efficient way of recycling. Hope that this project will succeed and will be carried on for the rest of the year with the UES.

U18 Boys' Basketball Coaching
Today was the second training of the U18 Boys' Basketball.
Because there is usually a teachers' meeting on Monday, we don't have any teachers coaching us so I am in charge of the training.
The training time is from 3:30pm to 5:00pm. Within this 1 hour 30 minutes, we start from warming such as a simple lay-up drill and then to a little more intense drill such as 3-man weaves and then we move on to the game.
I am planning to have more game based training since we only have training once a week. We don't have time to work on our fitness so we will have to do it by our own at home.
Hopefully this team will be a good team this year since it is my last year, we will be having some friendly matches against other schools and also hopefully will be participating in a competition.

Heritage Walk
We participate on the Heritage Walk in George Town on 11th October 2009. The main purpose of this event is to view the beautiful historical buildings of Malaysia while walking through the course. The course was set on the road that have many heritage buildings. And as we walk, we raise funds for the MRC Penang Branch's many humanitarian projects.
We walked for about an hour and a bit viewing the heritage sights and then back to the original place where we were in the beginning for the lucky draw event.
I felt that we need to work hard on keeping those heritage buildings. Nowadays, industrialization and modernization have been taking place and I assume that many of these valuable historical buildings have been lost due to the land issues. We have to respect and learn about those heritage building and keep them in our town.

U18 Football Friendly Match
There was a friendly football game against the Dalat International School.
I am in the B team of the U18 Boys' football. I am the captain in the B team and I had to lead everyone.
The game ended with a score 4 - 1 to Dalat, but the worse thing is that I couldn't do much as a captain. I was supposed to be coaching and advising my teammates during the game but I couldn't really do much of that. The score doesn't really matter since it's just a friendly match, but since it is a friendly match there must be something to learn from it. And what I've learned today is that I am not good enough as a captain yet. I need to improve more, both in football techniques and leading the team.
