Internship

My one week holiday is coming to an end and I'm gonna start my internship tomorrow!! I will be doing my internship in KPMG which I'm really excited cause it's one of the 'big four' accounting firms. Will be staying at my aunt's place in SS2 since it's nearer to the company. It's been a long while since I last stayed there and I'm really looking forward to visit the night market on Thursday.

I missed those days when I could actually sleep during exams or even leave the examination venue early. Now that I'm in Degree level, I don't even have sufficient time to finish all the questions though it was a 3 hours paper, how sad. On the bright side, I'm glad to say that I've finally completed all of my F papers after almost 4 years of studying. Although I can't guarantee that I'll pass my Audit and FM but at least I know that I've tried my best, last minute studying and lotsa procrastination along the way. My next semester will be my industrial training which will last for around 3 months and then there's another 2 more semesters to go. That's when I'll be taking my P papers and if I could clear everything, hopefully, then I'll be graduating next year around September. Well it's still a long way to go.

So during this short break, me and my classmates decided to have a 2D1N trip to Bentong and Bukit Tinggi. We left Setapak at around 10am after having our breakfast and arrived at Kin Tick Orchard Village after just 30 minutes. The place looks very relaxing as it was located in the midst of the mountain covered by dense forest, the perfect place for a retreat. Upon reaching, we quickly unloaded all of our belongings and decided to go cycling. Unfortunately, there wasn't enough bikes for all of us and so we went jungle trekking instead. It was a rather disappointing walk to be honest as it only took us half an hour to complete the entire trek. The sun was above our heads by the time we returned to the main lobby and it was almost time for lunch. However, we decided that lunch could wait and so we went to Sungai Chiling first.



It wasn't a long drive to Sungai Chiling and we arrived in no time. The place was crowded but we still managed to enjoy ourselves there. At last, hunger took over and we left Sungai Chiling after about an hour. We had our lunch in Bentong and also tried the famous 'ice cream cendol' before heading back to Kin Tick Orchard Village. We were all pretty exhausted when we came back so we just spent the rest of the evening doing individual activities. Most of them went swimming while the rest went cycling. Given that I couldn't swim, I decided to go cycling with some of my friends. Late in the evening, we gathered back at the lobby for dinner. After dinner, we had karaoke session and some of us played jenga. At night, we returned to our dorms and played some card games, along with a little alcohol. Haha.. We didn't sleep until about 3am.


Surprisingly, we still managed to wake up the next morning for breakfast. We didn't do much after breakfast and I slept through the entire morning after having my breakfast. At about 12pm, it was time to check out. We bit farewell to Kin Tick Orchard Village and off we went to Bukit Tinggi. We visited the French Village and took lotsa pictures there. It started to drizzle late in the afternoon signalling us it was time to head back to the car park. We still managed to take a last group photo before the rain came pouring down. We ran back to the car park to retrieve our cars and head back to Setapak. It was already around 4pm when we reached Setapak and we had lunch.. er dinner? before bidding farewell to each other. Good luck and see ya guys in 3 months! :D
