An Idea from Heaven....

Date: 16/11/2006
Time: 11.30

It happened on the very same day, it was lunch time and we were very frustrated and confused. Every member was thinking hard and was disappointed because we had to start all over again from 0%.

All of us went to the food court to have our lunch as our stomach was as sad as ourselves. It was very silent on the table and everybody was eating their food quietly. After eating, we sat down and pull ourselves back together and started brainstorming. Various suggestions and ideas came up such as Malaysian Wedding, Wayang Kulit, Malaysian food, Malaysian Villages and etc.

The group members were not agreeing towards on another and signs of conflict started to rise. The reason was most of the topic mentioned above was already done by other group and some were too hard in terms of finding the resources and information.

We try to find a way to maintain the Putrajaya topic and discussed various ways to relate it with Malaysian culture and lifestyle such as signs of Malaysian architecture present around Putrajaya. But it seems very uninteresting and boring because Putrajaya is a government administration city therefore there weren't any interesting cultural architecture besides tall skyscrapers. It seems there was no hope at all, we were all very disappointed and despair.

Suddenly, one of our friends came to our table and gave us a suggestion about doing a Chinese tea topic. It was like a miracle to us as this guy's family background is very traditional and he knows a lot about Chinese cultures and lifestyle. Here we discovered and understand the benefit of a group work. It was like heaven has shown its light upon us. We were very excited and the atmosphere had changed immediately. We quickly discuss about it and planed our next move.

Thank you Ziv Goh. You gave us hope ;)
