Summer Job



In this essay, I going to write about my experiences I have been through during my summer vacation. I have worked as a trainee in Abu Dhabi Court; in addition to that I  spent two weeks in Al Etihad Airways on a training course, since I am one of their scholars, in order to prepare myself for the work environment.  

            Firstly, I will write about the summer job which was in Abu Dhabi Court. The location of the Abu Dhabi court is near to Zayed military hospital. My training was in the Committees Interests Department. In this department, I have learned many things such as registering the cases and distributing and filing papers. In addition, they allowed me and my colleague to attend, read the cases and come up with suitable solutions. Also, I gained some of the skills on how to deal with the customers, since I was communicating with clients directly to finish their work.

            During my summer experience, I received a call from Al Etihad Airways, which is my sponsor, asking me to join them for four days in order to get familiar with my working environment in the future. First, I met my direct supervisor who assigned for me some tasks. The supervisors asked me to join different groups in order to meet the other engineers, to get to know each other. He divided us into groups; each group contained  four students with a senior engineer. We were observing him all the time and asking him. They have assigned to us a check list with the required equipment and we have to check what we have. As well, we were able to change parts of the equipment. In addition, they took us on a tour in different planes to know the difference between them. We were able to check old and new planes but in different ways. For example, in the old plane they gave us a paper to check the plane if there was any Malfunction to fix. In the new plane like Airbus, 777 and Boing we were able check the plane through the computer inside the plane.

            In conclusion, I had great experience in both places because I had some information about my course before I started the class; also, I am more confident when I deal with the people.

Hedley trip

                                                                Hedley's trip



About 30 years ago, Hedley, and his family had a trip to Niah Caves in East Malaysi. They travelled by car, large ferry, and small boat.

They travelled by car from Brunei to Bandar Seri Begawan (BSB), then they drove cross the river by the ferry, and arrive at dusk and they stay in a rest house.

The next morning they walked in to the jungle, and they walked until they reached the Niah Caves, which were very high and they climbed the mountains and saw some snakes and lizards.

The next day they went back to their home in Brunei.
