a voting experience



i casted my first vote ever yesterday....it was a good experience...went to the polling centre with my parents early in the morning, and there were already a good crowd at the polling centre...at my polling stream, many of the voters are young and they were about the same age as me...i'm sure this was their first experience too...

the excitement plateud during the afternoon (as we were enjoying ourselves BBQ-ing at home) and it started back when the results started pouring in through the medias....

we were glued to the TV, watching almost all channels interchangebly to get the fast and immediate results...as early as 8pm, shockng news regarding the elections were announced and subsequently more shocking and unpredictable results were aired live from the TV....

the excitements were escalating and the adrenaline kept on pumping even though it was already late...i couldn't believe it that me, hubby and my dad stayed up until 3 am+ eagerly waited for the results...!!!

the comments given by the political analysts were also very good and that also kept our eyes open until most of the results were announced...
and mind you, it was very difficult for me to get up this morning (not until i got sms from my friend in Bangi asking who won at my area..)...and my sister from Australia called to get further news on the election....and the whole day today i got 'pening-pening lalat' due to lack of sleep the night before....

i have no comment about the results but Malaysia has said it all...we voted for our rights and we already chose the persons who will represent our voices....and now, we hope that those representatives will prove it to us that they will contribute for the development of our nation and our country, Malaysia....

for those who did not make it in this elections (especially for those who got a big blow this time). maybe it's time for us to ponder ourselves and make necessary changes and improvement in our lives to become a better person in the future....
