HIIIIIIIIIII

Salam alikum and hello all friends.

How are all? Sorry my friends, I couldn’t write in the blog last few days for dome reasons.

Any way, today I will share with you my experiences of the last days that I could not manage to write about.

Thursday was my forth day being here at KL joining Petrosains communication program.
After getting ready and after having breakfast we went to start our day. It was full of science communication learning this time. We had “spinning a top” activity which held by Mr. jemy. Thank you Mr. jemy for sharing your experiences with us. We learn many science communication concepts from you.
Let me tell you the process of this activity. We went through 3 stations doing an experiment. Each of them had its own approach as it was discussed at the end after doing the experiment. These approaches purposely have physics facts to discover. And now I will tell u what did we do?

Station (1), we have been divided into groups. Each of which is consist of 2 people. We had some materials as spindle tip, surfaces of different materials, rubber and other things. With all these things we should make a spinning top. No instructions to follow in this station. There was no discussion about what we discovered.

Station (2), at this station we had instructions to follow in order to do the experiment.
At this station we almost discovered how to make the top spins faster. As I see, It is a preparation step for stations (3).

Station (3), we provided with many stationeries and with different materials so that we could do the experiment many times in different ways. I my self tried many times with different surfaces trying to see the difference, with which surface the top is faster and why?
This station was different because it had the longest time and we did the experiment individually.

Last but not least, we ended up this activity with discussing what we found out through the stations and here we got the key concept in the science of Tops.

Next activity was “the sky bridge tour”. Waw, was great. When I saw the world from up I found that life from up its so beautiful, so great and so sweet. However, to see that u MUST do a lot. Put a lot of effort. I always believe that as we say in Arabic “الحياه حلوه بس نفهمها” which means, life is so beautiful if and only if we could understand it and as my friend told me, to live the life we should live it and love it, isn’t it true?

Life is life never change. Life is the same; it is just us who change. So from up, I found that no thing is impossible. It may be hard but never impossible. We need to work, work and work to give and show the next generation the best we have done and let them go and continue the line of our working and see the great world around us as well as to keep our earth in the best and for the best.

I took a brochure with me about KLCC to read for more information. Actually I just started reading it but not finished yet.

Did I tell u before that KLCC does not consider as the tallest building in the world now. Just for your information, It was the tallest but now it is the second tallest after ….in china. And soon will be the third and ….in china the second after the “borg” comes up in Dubai.


Any way, we didn’t forget the pictures time. We took so nice pictures there, either individually or group picture. It was fun too.
By finishing this session we went back to the ZONE…It is the hotel at where we are staying. We had our reflection there at the hotel in which we had a surprise. Well, one of the guys whose name is Yosry and I knew about it, but not my friends. We got half of our allowance.

Do you wonders about why just two of us knew about it but not my friends? Because we should knew about it. WHY??!

Well, I think I didn’t mention to u that before, Yosry and I are the leaders. He is the leader of the guys while I am the leader of the girls. It is a very big responsibility. I did not think it is going to be as it is now. However, it is a great experience and big challenge.

It is my first step to gain the characters and the abilities of the leadership. I always consider others, thinking about them and their needs as well as how to manage situations in case having a problem. I am trying to be as their sister and as their friend before being their leader. As I see, being as your members’ sister/brother and friend before being their leader is one of the best characters you should have as a leader. They feel free talking to you at any time or need, respect you, and also inform you about the things they are going to do.

Now, I am trying to make them respect the time and that is by being on time. What I meant is that, so far we used to go to Petrosains; where the program is; a bit later than the time in the program schedule we have. The challenge now is to be on time by training them step by step. I just hope to get the challenge successfully by next week.


Although it is a lot to tell and share with you my experiences I will keep doing that day after day.

Here I stop with you a bout Thursday and ill tell you about Friday day next time. Ok??!!

Have a nice day and enjoy your day.

Salam.

Your sister,
sameha
