13th Week of the Last Semester~

I am not going to write about what had I done on last week. Instead, I would like to write about what I felt. Last week, my temper is getting bad when I faced some of the challenges. Furthermore, I get a lot of pressures regarding on studies, projects and job applications/offers from my peers. Actually, I shouldn't treat these matters as my pressures because I am different from the others. But imagine when a whole group of people ask  the same questions to you that you don't like to answer it. Will you get frustrated? I am a person who does not like to tell too much about my things to other people including my best friend. Maybe the readers may think that I am a secretive person. Yes I am. I was betrayed by few friends that revealed my secrets to other people on last time. I do not trust people easily after that incident. From that moment, I seldom tell my real problems or share my secrets to my friends, including my best /good friends. Meanwhile, spreading rumour is not really good. Rumour is like a virus that may kill a person. I was being told by a friend that I got an offer for something. I felt weird about it and I asked him/her where he/she got the information. To my surprise, he/she told me that he/she know it from another friend where that friend know it from another friend who so called that will give me the offer. I didn't get any notice that I will get the offer and I categorized it as a rumour because there is no solid proof to shows that it is a true story. I agree with one of my lecturers who told me that as a future engineer, we need to analyze a problem with facts and figures and not with rumours. I think that is all I want to crap at here. 1 week left before the back to back final exam but I am still slacking. 

Be courteous to all, but intimate with few, and let those few will be tried before you give them your confidence~

12th Week of the Last Semester

As usual, my pressure level is increasing when the due date for the project submission, test, presentation or final exam is coming soon. But most of my coursemates told me that I still look so calm and free from worries. Actually I do really worry about my projects, tests, exams and also my future path. Maybe it because I didn't show it too publicly and I keep it tightly, like I seal my secrets well. Last Monday, I was invited by a society to attend their last event of the year. When I compare their activities with my university, there are some difference and the main is formality. I think its due to the environment, my university is more keen to formality and protocol. Even one of the organizers told me that my university is too formal until need to stand when the national anthem and my university's song are played. I am not sure he/she is joking or insulting but I think when we are in an event, we need to be careful with the way we present ourselves. But I really thank to the organizers for inviting me and I think it will be the last student activity that I joined before I graduate. Meanwhile, my university's career unit organized a career fair for two days on last Tuesday. It was a smaller scale if compare to last year's career fair but some of the big companies come back again and support the fair. This time, I didn't join the fair as a volunteer because I am busy with my projects and I became a job-seeker instead. I saw a lot of students were applying oil and gas companies on that day. I think everyone is searching for a high pay salary job so that they can survive in an expensive society. As for now, I still haven't get any offer yet even though I applied some of the jobs since last month and I still continue to apply it. I am happy for my coursemates who secured their job but at the same time I start to worry about myself because I haven't get an  offer yet. Maybe the readers will think that it is too early for me to apply a job but I think it is not too early. Its really competitive nowadays, not easy to find a good job. I hope I can get it soon and I really dislike when my coursemates ask about my job application. Next week, I will be facing a test and a group project presentation and I am not ready yet. Next two weeks, I will be facing another group presentation and my final year project presentation. Next three weeks, I will be facing my final exam which will be held on the first and second day. Next four weeks, I have to submit my thesis and project reports. When the juniors asked me to describe about my final year, I told them that they will know it soon and asked them to enjoy while they can. I am not sure that my advice will frighten them or not but I think they will make it through.


The secret of success is learning how to use the pain & pleasure instead of having pain & pleasure use you. If you do that, you're in control of your life. If you don't, life controls you~

This song resembles my feeling now~

15th April 2012

How lucky I am just now. I was shocked when I heard a loud 'POP' sound in my room and suddenly there is no electricity. Initially I thought that no electricity for the whole building but I was wrong, my house is the only place does not have the electricity. It is not the first time for me to face this kind of situation in the hostel. I faced it before during my final exam time on last year. The room is so dark and I home alone I do not have a torchlight and I had to used my the light of my handphone to see the area and I still don't know how to use my it. When I wanted to go out to the office's notice board and get the technician's contact number, one of my housemates came back from his hometown. Luckily got a housemate to accompany with me for the dark time. Haha~ After half an hour later, the technician came and repaired the problem. He found out that my room's sockets got problem. Luckily I haven't take my bath and the weather is really hot although this evening the rain showered at my university. Today is the 100th Anniversary of the sinking of Titanic. A total of 1514 deaths and it still famous for it's sinking legacy. I would like to share a short clip on how the ship sank by James Cameron and his team rather than to share the famous song 'My Hearts Will Go On' to commemorate the anniversary, to let the readers understand how it sank.

3 weeks left before the final exam starts. I only have 2 papers and I need to face it on the first and second day of the exam week. It is a 'Back to Back' exam~~

Need to plan the time well and

I believe that 'The Pain You Feel Today Will Be The Strength You Feel Tomorrow~'

Early April 2012

I would like to wish a Blessed Good Friday to my Christian friends and have a good Easter weekend!

Early this month, I was quite busy with my Integrated Design Project especially when I need to prepare and compile the materials for the client's meeting. It was quite last minute to received a notice for the meeting. But this is a real life. I need to be prepare what ever I face. About the meeting, the client was quite satisfied with my group works except a member. I tried my best to make sure that he do his works but sometimes he can gives me a pressure. I think the other group leaders will agree with my statement. I just hope that everything are in order. Recently, I have received a call from a company and the executive asked me whether I am interested to work with their company or not. Without hesitation, I agreed and sent my application letter & resume to her. And now, I hope they will ask me for an interview. But its still early, I still need to apply other companies so that I have a few choices to choose for my future. Nowadays, I am getting lazier despite busy with my projects. I didn't do my revision for the subjects that I taken. I just started to revise the notes 3 days before the mid term test. My mood of study is gone now. Maybe it is due to I am going to graduate soon. I am not the only person who feel that, some of my classmates feel that way too. I need to find my study mood back before the final exam. Yesterday, I took a test in the afternoon. I realized that my handwriting is getting worst like 'Chicken's Claw' (direct translation from Malay Language: Cakar Ayam). I hope that my lecturer will not deduct my marks due to my handwriting. During the test, I saw one of my classmates was cheating by copying the answer from her notes. She hided her notes under her answer booklet so that the lecturer couldn't notice it. I was wondering how she can get a high courage to copy. During evening time, I went to a hotel with my classmates for the last dinner before we graduate. It was a last minute planning and it is not easy to plan since everyone is busy with  their project. But in the end, it ended well. I saw them were enjoying. Gossiping here and there. No stress. After the dinner, we had our group photo session on a staircase. There was a tourist, who was walking down on the staircase. So sudden, she stopped and stand on a level of the staircase, called her friend to come down. My classmate asked her politely to excuse herself for us to take our group photo but she didn't leave and she  remains standing at there, interrupt our group photo taking. When her friend came down, she showed a 'Tiny Eyes' or 'Mata Sepet' look to us before she leave. All of us felt like: WHAT THE HELL??? Can she respect us? Even when we visit other countries, we still respect their people, cultures and rules. But they didn't. They came here to visit or study but didn't respect us. I think they should go back to their own motherland if they feel that here is not suitable for them to visit or study and the country will be more peaceful without their presence.  Please respect people so that they will respect you back. 6 weeks left and it will be the crucial weeks for me. I need to stay focus and keep a good health so that I can finish these 6 weeks well. 

A song that boost my spirit~ Don't give up~

The 8th Week of the Final Semester~

As usual, everyone is busy but this time all of us were focusing on our Final Year Project draft thesis. We didn't touch on Integrated Design Project and the work of progress is delaying. Some of us were quite lucky because we started to write the draft since last January and finished it on time. We have plenty time to write and check our draft. But some were in rush and do it in last minute. I saw some of them need to work overnight and sleep less to finish their draft and this is bad for health. Time management is really important and I am still trying to master it. About thesis, I have something to comment about it. Different lecturers have their own style. But one main thing, I think they have the same thought which is: 'Its not the pages counted as a good thesis but the content of the book is the main criteria to check the quality of a thesis'. It is not easy to to write a good thesis even myself, I have the difficulty to write it especially the vocabulary part. Its better for you to ask your friend to help you to check your thesis once it done. Different ideas or comments from your friends may help you to make a better thesis. Meanwhile, some of my classmates suggested to me to organize a formal dinner before we face our final exam and graduate. I was wondering why I am always the one who need to organize it? Is it because I have the experience to organize it? I don't mind to help and organize it but I just hope that every one will support it. Yesterday, a lot of youngster went to KLCC to meet their favourite K-Pop group at a concert for F1. I was surprised when I saw pictures showed that the fans waited for the concert since early in the morning, to get a good spot to watch the free concert. Even some of friends posted a lot of the group pictures on the Facebook for the last 3 days ago. The K-Pop group is really powerful. How long they can maintain their popularity? Haha~ Yesterday, I was chatted with one of my friends and we discussed about something that I haven't face it before in my life. Sometimes, when I walk in a shopping mall, I will think a while what is my future will be when I have my own wife and children? I think too far already and now I am still single but not available. Hahaha~ I agree with what my friend told me yesterday. He said that: 'Love is like a flower, need to care from time to time by your heart. Need to keep on watering. Keep on and ensure that the soil is good and comfortable. Sometimes need some sunny day and to make her not to forget the warmness that you gave it to her'. A good theory to keep the relationship. Thanks for my friend's opinion. I hope those who are in a relationship, appreciate it before its too late and you will get hurt. Love your family while they are still alive. Care and support your beloved ones. 58 days left before I end my course. Mixed feelings~

I can feel your heartbeat~

P?S: I need to wake up early tomorrow. =.=

Half Semester Gone, Half Semester Left~

Next Friday need to submit my first draft thesis. No mood to write it. Need to write minimum of 70 pages for my 'First Love Book'. Half semester gone and semester left. 7 weeks left to study and after that will be the final exam week. Everyone is rushing for their projects, especially writing thesis. Meanwhile, some of us were facing few tests on last week. I managed to do my revision for my test. Sometimes I can say that not only practice makes perfect but we need to understand the term so that we can remember the term for a longer time. During the test, there was a question that caused every students frustrated for it. It took more than 30 minutes to solve that question although it should be done in 5-10 minutes. Even for myself, I was sweating at that time and felt pain on my right arm. I was like a robot to write answer fast so that I can finish the question on time. One of the student asked lecturer about it. In the end, I found it that the question got a little bit problem. I just hope that the lecturer will mark the answer appropriately. My classmates and I were thinking about our lives after the graduation. Graduation Trip? Road Trip? What will we become in the future? Work as engineer? Plan to buy a car and house? Marry the girlfriend? One of my classmates said that we look different now if compare when we were in freshman year that time and I agreed with him. The way we think is different than last time. I can see the almost everyone got white hair and I am proud that I have a lot of white hair. Even the hair stylist joked with me that got white hair is better than those who has the bald hair today. Haha~ I have sent few letters for my job application. I just hope that I will get a good job soon. Some of my classmates asked about my application. As usual, I do not like to tell some of my things to others and I prefer to keep it for myself. Maybe the readers will think that I am a secretive person. Yes, I am. I do not like to share my main problems and secrets with my friends, even my best friends now. I was betrayed when my things was revealed to everyone by my friends even though I told them to keep it as a secret. It was a trauma to me and I promise to myself that I will not reveal my main problems or secrets to other anymore. Maybe this will be one of my reasons that I am no in a relationship? My English is getting worst. I do not know how am I suppose to write my 'First Love Book'.

Half Semester Left~

Early March 2012~

Almost 2 weeks I didn't write my blog. Quite busy with the Final Year Project, Integrated Design Project, elective subject project and other work loads. Pressure level is increasing. My temper is getting bad. It is not easy to handle something that does not follow your requirement and caused other members in to trouble, especially those people who think they are really smart but actually they are not. I can say that they are just a bad and lousy 'Actor' because they do not know how to act or perform as a real & mature engineering student. Everyone is facing their hard time on this last semester, which will end on next 2 months. Some of them wish to end their studies as soon as possible but some of them feel like do not want to graduate, they feel like they will miss their studies life soon. Some of my classmates and coursemates asked about my future plan and job application. I haven't think thoroughly and decide my future yet due to my hectic time now. Maybe after I settle with my works now first then I do my job application. Last week was a hectic hectic week for everyone because we need to submit our Final Year Project Progress Report 3. Time management is really important and I hope that my work is on schedule. Yesterday I officially skipped a class. It was a long time I skip a class last time. I'm not sure that I have this kind of opportunity to skip again when I work.

International Women's Day~ Connecting Girls, Inspiring Futures~ Nice theme~

That's all for today post since I just want to write my feeling~
