A Happy Surprise

Yesterday, 7th November 2010, I received a very shock news to me, it's was a happy news to me indeed. Until now I feel like I was dreaming to get the news and I was smiling like I never know the meaning of happy before this.

Actually for the past 2 weeks, I have been so down because of something that unhappy had happened. Seriously I was confuse about what should I do with the unhappy problem that I faced, keeping all the sadness and confuseness just to myself, the heart was quite painful. I was not able to sleep well too for the past 2 weeks.

Until yesterday, without I need to think of solution to solve the problem, I received a surprise news that have solved the problem. In a sudden, all the confuseness was gone and I can release all the tension in my heart.

Thanks to surprise, thank you for appearing and save my life. I will cherish this surprise as much as I can.

Meaning of Life

All the time in our life, we are searching for the meaning of life, but is there anyone who really found it? Seriously, I do not think there is anyone who did. Whenever you found a reason, there always will be questions that will rise out from there.

People always like to ask me, what you want in your life, although I can always answer their questions confidently, but in the end I will always ask myself, why do I want that in my life? When I have that thing already, what else will I pursue in the future? Ya, may be it is a good thing for me as I am sure about what I want currently, compare to a lot of people who does not know at all.

There is a lot curiosities in my mind, why this and why that, basically I do not think that I can get the answer that really can satisfy me in my life. But for me, currently I do not wish to go further into the question that I have in my mind.

Turning Point

Life is full of turning points, a point where something can turn good or turn bad, depending on your life and luck. At each turning point, we must know what we want and how to make decision. Every decision we make at the turning point can affect a lot of the happenings in the future. Some more, we cannot turn back after we proceed with the execution of the decision we made.

Another turning point in my life has arrived, at the day where I have received my bachelor degree certificate few days ago. Although I finished my studies and started my work few months ago, but things are different when I really have my Bachelor degree certificate with me. When relatives come to bless you and friends invite you to go out for celebration, things like that are nice. But the true story behind is a cruel fact, where parents start to concern about your future, and you have to carry life burden alone.

Thinking of earn more money and build a happy family with your loved one, where the thinking and mindset grow mature slowly. Last time you might spend qauite amount of money every month on entertainments, example sing karaoke, travelling or clubbing. But now, you will learn to save more money, getting some assets or doing some investment instead. For guys, you might even think of buying house and car, and also take up the responsibility to take care of your family.

At my current turning point, I have chosen the path and future that I want. I do not know what is waiting me ahead, but I will face it toughly and achieve the future that I was looking for all along.

Targeting a new mobile phone..**

Lately fall in love with a hobby, that is to take photo when I'm at outing, taking photos of foods, nice places and scenes with laughter. I don't have a proper camere nor a mobile phone with a good camera, so I always borrow my friend's camera to take photos of the scenes that I want.

For the past 2 days, I have been thinking about getting a camera for myself. However, I don't like to bring a camera along with me to wherever I go because it is very troublesome and so I think I will get a mobile phone with a good camera. Some more, my current mobile phone has been accompany me for more than 5 years, among my friends, I have created a record for the period of time.

I have surveyed for a few nice model mobile phones, that are SE Satio, SE Aino, SE Vivaz, SE Xperia X10, Nokia N8, Samsung Wave 723 and Samsung i9000 Galaxy S. Personally I think SE Vivaz is good enough for me, but I would like to go to the shop to test all the phones for a wiser decision. Besides that, there are a lot of things that I need to take into consideration, such as budget, availability and specfications.

new environment, new challenge, new life...

Started in 1st July of this year, I started to work in an international company that located at local. It is my first real "job" after I so called graduated in May, this year.

I get the job via an advertisement put on my university's notice board. At first I thought that it was just an ordinary job application, but I discovered that I was wrong when I went for the interview, it was an talent scouting. I did not prepared for such "interesting" interview, but in the end I was manage to get the job too. Wow, out from 100 plus people who went for interview, I was one of the lucky candidates selected. Haha..

The talent scouting program has scouted 10 successful candidates, from different background but with one common similarity, that is all of us are from electronic field. I met all of them and become close to each other very fast. However, there are some difficulties and interesting tasks for all of us, some more each of us have to settle it individually. Oh well, I don't mind, I took it as an challenge and now I chopped with my interesting task successfully.

One thing I'm blur at all is the HR team who keep on telling us that they want to form us to be a superman or superwomen. They want the 10 of us to be exremely good in performing tasks. I suddenly think of something funny, the 10 of us are not yet married, how to be superman or superwomen?? we can only become superboy or superwomen..^^

Facing the challenge in this real environment really made me miss my university's life. Anyway, I am gonna try my best to achieve what is in my mind, I'm not going to give up so easily. All the best to my own future, may a bright future waiting me ahead...^^

Trip's day 11 - 1/6/10

We spent the day on Genting Highland, same as the night before, they went to casino while I went back to hotel room to pack my thing, online using my friend's laptop and take bath. Around 11.30am, we start our journey returning to KL Sentral. I think we didn't take lunch that day, then reached KL Sentral, we straight took trains to Maluri, a place where one of our friend staying.

Then late evening, she fetched us to Tasik Selatan to take KLIA transit to go airport. However, we were taking Airasia flight so we have to change to take bus when we reached Salak Tinggi station. The KLIA transit can consider as the most nice train available in Malaysia, but the fare is a bit expensive.

KLIA transit, nice environment

Since we were taking Airasia flight, so we have to went to LCCT terminal. At LCCT terminal, we first went to Mc'D for dinner, sat at there for around 2 hours. After that we changed the venue to the Coffee Bean where we sat at there for the rest of the night. I didn't sleep at all that night, and all the things accompanied me that time was my writing pad, my phone ( Low batt and critical, was OFF after I'm sure I won't receive any important sms that night) and my two friends that coming back home as well.

A drink called "Americano", tastes super bitter.

It was a nice experience staying a night at the airport. Early in the morning, we checked-in for flight 5.30am and flew back home. It was a nice trip after all..^^

Things that accompanied me that night when my friends were not around in Coffee Bean. They did took a short nap on the table and went to nearest Kopitiam for supper.

Trip's day 10 - 31/5/10

It was a day where I miscalculated the timing for the journey and asked my friends to wake up early, so end up we reached KL sentral 1 hour earlier as planned. We having Mc'D at there as our brunch and took the 11.30am bus to Genting.

To enjoy the ride in cable car (also known as Skyway), we took the bus until the mid-mountain area and changed to cable car. The Genting cable car was known as the longest cable car in South East Asia, travelling through about 3.38km.

Since most of us been to Genting before so the trip at there mostly consider boring, except when my friends are spending their time in two of the available casino at there, De Genting (also known as Starworld) and Monte Carlo casino. Hmm, it was not a lucky day for them because they keep on losing, however they didn't lost much. I didn't gamble this time because I felt that it was not my day and I also have a bad feeling about it. 

They stay in the casino until quite late while I slept in the room early. For me, Genting is nothing special anymore but a place for gambling and gambling is not a good activities. It can help you gain extra pocket money, but it also can cause people to lost their life if addicted.

Oh ya, we met a Korean guy, around the age of 55, travelling alone without any beg. He has been travelling around the world for 2 months and he will keep on travelling for the coming 6 months. All of my friends envy his style of journey but I was not. For me, I prefer travelling with my loved one, just the two of us would be enough...^^

Trip's day 9 - 30/5/10

Day 9, a day in our trip where things get messy, in the end we decided to enjoy the morning as each of ourselves prefer. So as, this is a day where I went shopping again. I was tired already due to the rushing of the trip so I decided to went to the nearest shopping mall, enjoy awhile of shopping and then back home to the hotel to rest.

Morning after breakfast together, four of us separated into 3 directions, one of us went to Klang, another two of us went to One Utama and I went to Time Square. After a short while of shopping and I bought some bread, walking back to the hotel. Two of my friend came back around 4pm when I was taking my nap. Another one came back quite late, around 6.30pm.

That evening we got appointment with one of our university coursemates and we dinner together with her. After dinner, we went back our hotel to pack our laugauges and ready for the night time outing. One of our friend in KL guide us to a place known as "The Lookout Point", it is located on a mountain and it is for people to view KL's night scenes. We have some drinks at the Gasolin Cafe and then went back hotel.

It was indeed a pretty view of KL...^^

Trip's day 8 - 29/5/10

A simple day of our trip, with one word "shopping". Although the word "shopping" was used, but it seems that I was the one shopped the most at there. Our travelling group consists mainly of 4 guys, so like my friend he said "shopping is boring for most guys. some more if they were asked to shop together with other guys, no girls around". As a guy, I do agree what he said in some point. haha..

That day, after simple breakfast, we walked to a lot shopping malls, started with Time Square, Lowyat, Bukit Bintang, Sungai Wang, Pavillion and etc. Among the malls, we spent most of the time in Lowyat, shopping for electronic devices. Then, we also went to KL Sentral to get the next next day ticket to go Genting Highland.

Then late evening we went to Mid Valley for a walk. At there, we having dinner and buy some local cookies, etc. Before we went back to the hotel, we went to the Petalling Street for a walk as well. It was a famous street and crowded. Near there, I have bought a software that I wanted.

Trip's day 7 - 28/5/10

The morning on Cameron, we first went for brunch. Then, we visited a strawberries farm, experienced the picking of strawberries. There are a few strawberries farm and finally we chosen the one at Ringlet. At there, if you picked the strawberries, then you must buy it. At there also it was located a bee farm where we saw how people pet the bees and obtaining the honey.

The second destination on Cameron was to buy souvenir, visiting other kind of farms and the time tunnel. Most of the souvenirs on Cameron have strawberries as their symbolic item.

We also went to the BOH teh farm and tasted a few more nice " food" on Cameron. Besides the strawberries, the another two kind of food that gave me deep impression are the sweet corn that can be eaten uncooked and the "Jambu Jeruk". I like the taste of the Jambu but I don't really like the taste of the sweet corn, may be it is weird for me to eat it uncooked.

After the farms visiting on Cameron, we continued our journey to Kuala Lumpur (also known as KL). I took a drive of 2 and a half hours drive from the mountain feet of Cameron to KL. It was the first time I drive in such nice Highway and it was a very nice experience.

In KL, we met our friend at Sunway Pyramid first because we were afraid that we drive to the wrong direction. She brought us to a hotel named "Hotel No.1" in Pudu. That night, after having supper with her, we went back to the hotel and rest early.

Trip's day 6 - 27/5/10

This day is the day where we all woke up very early in the morning, before 7.30am. I think I woke up around 7.30am, the first one woke up and clean up. Around 8.15am we start our drive to Klang.

Actually in our planning, Klang was just a stop point for us. We only planned to try the famous Bak Kuk Teh and help one of my friend to find his thing, a remote control car accessories. It was a very unlucky day for us because we get lost in Klang due to its messy traffic. Besides that, the famous Bak Kuk Teh shop also out of business and we hardly find the shop my friend wanted to go.

After hours of wandering around in Klang city only then we accomplished our missions at there. Leaving Klang, we straight went to Cameron Highland, Pahang. Following the old road, which is shorther in distance but curvy and curly, we reached the top of the mountain after 1 hour of drive. On middle of the mountain, we stopped at a beautiful waterfall.

We reached Tanah Rata of Cameron by late of that evening, and we were staying at Hotel Titiwangsa at there which cost us RM 88/- per night during weekday. Cameron was divided into 3 parts, that are BrinChang, Tanah Rata and Ringlet.

Night time, we walked around the area of Tanah Rata and having steamboat at there. The steamboat was quite nice and not so expensive also. After that, we went for a walk again, feeling the cold breeze surrounding us, framing the beautiful night scenes into our eyes and also buying souvenirs.

Trip's day 5 - 26/5/10

Day 5 of the trip was a simple day, where we went to A Farmaso Resort and played waterworld activities. Besides that, we also dropped by a few its famous attractive venues, such as the cowboy city. Some of the photos I taken at there are:

On our way back to the hotel, we went to the Jusco, the largest shopping mall available in Malacca. At there also we have settled our dinner in Station Kopitiam. The drinks at there are quite nice and the prices are acceptable.

That night, we didn't went to any other places but stay inside the hotel to pack our things. We were suppose to sleep early that night because we need to start our journey early next morning, but some of my friends cannot sleep early due to their habits..^^

Trip's day 4 - 25/5/10

Early in the morning, after breakfast, we straight onto the highway and drive to Malacca. The drive to Malacca took around 3 hours and I used my time wisely, that is slept in the car.

First thing we do after reached Malacca is to go to eat Chicken Rice Ball for lunch. Actually I didn't feel anything special about it because it is like they are just shaping the rice into small balls like table tennis balls. After lunch, we went to A Farmosa palace for a look, then we walked to Red House. On the way, we played with snake and took photo with it.

Then, we went to the famous Jonker Street, at there we manage to buy some souvenirs and local cookies. Slowly then we walked back to the shopping mall where our car was parked. The mall was called Dataran Pahlawan. At night, our friend's friend brought us for dinner and I manage to see my friend cry due to the spiciness of a "Super Spicy" sausage. We also went for satay celup and cuci tiram as our supper.

Our last destination of the day was the Air Panas Gadek at Tampin, Malacca. "Air Panas" means hot spring in Malay. The hot spring was so hot, until we can sweat seriously even we just put our feet into it. However, the hot spring helped us to relax our tired feet and we felt our feet much comfortable after that.

One of the most memorable thing in Malacca was the cake we ate. In Dataran Pahlawan, there is a shop called "Nadeja cafe", which serves as cake house. The cake at there was the most most delicious cake I ever ate before. The cake was made from slices of pancakes and cream, it was so smooth and it was like it will melt inside the mouth. Since I love to cook and etc, if next time got chance, sure I'll try to make it. Haha...

Trip's day 3 - 24/5/10

The third day of my trip was mostly focus on shopping. We first went to Orchard then to Bugis for shopping. After shopping, we went to Marina Bay then walked for 3 stations to go to City Hall. Actually this is  because we went to the wrong station to find the statue of Merlion, the symbolic of Singapore. Anyway, it was quite impressive way.

The photo of Merlion.

That evening, we have dinner together with my uncle before I leave Singapore and back to Johor Bahru, Malaysia. Some of the dishes I ate in Singapore are:

Trip's day 2 - 23/5/10

The second day of our trip, 8am we went to Vivo City located at Harbour Front, Singapore. Dragging our tired feet, we met our friend's cousin at there and she will be joining us that day. Vivo City is also a big shopping mall and it is the entrance to Sentosa Island as well, that is the main destination of the day.

At Vivo City, while waiting for another friend's friend who is in Singapore, his cousin helped us to take photos around there. Then, we all straight went to Sentosa Island, island of joyes in Singapore. One of the photo edited by her is:

My friends and I spent almost whole day in Sentosa Island. We went to see the casino, Universal Studio, the Sentosa's Merlion, then we went to play luge, skyride and etc. Besides that, we also went into the underwater world to see sea creatures and watch dolphins doing performance. Of course, we didn't miss the  beautiness of the beach.

The trip of the day didn't end like that, after enjoyment in Sentosa Island, we went to China Town for a walk and then went for night safari. Photo of China Town is as follow:

The China Town walk is quite fun but the night safari was disappointed. The ticket was expensive but the animal show is too old fashioned and the tram ride to see animal is too dark.

Overall of the trip, I think the second day was the most tiring but quite enjoyed. Haha..

Trip's day 1 - 22/5/10

Early in the morning, I departed from my house, went to a nearby coffee shop for breakfast. Then, I reached Kuching International Airport, met my friends and checked-in together. Our first destination was to Singapore, the country of Merlion.

Before we went to Singapore, we have been to my friend's sister house located in Skudai, Johor Bahru. Then, my friend fetch us to a nearby place for lunch first. We didn't stay long in Johor Bahru because it actually was stop point in our planning.

In the evening, we passed the emigration and officially reached our destination, Singapore. It was a horrible experience for me because it took a very long time and troublesome procedures. We have taken rides on buses, MRT (Mass Rapid Transit) and also taxi just to reach my uncle's house in Singapore.

Haha, the first thing I passed to my uncle is Kuching famous dishes called "Kolo Mee". It is a kind of noodles cooked and serve with "Char Siew" sauce as it main spices. "Char Siew" is a kind of BBQ pork in red colour and the BBQ sauce is collected from the drops of the pork oil during BBQ. Honestly, Kolo mee is a very delicious local dishes of Kuching. Even there are people who try to make such noodles when they back to their home town, they can't really make it tastes as delicious as it is in Kuching.

That night, my uncle brought us to Jurong Point and Marina Bay for dinner and a walk. Juring Point and Marina Bay are extremely large shopping mall in Singapore. Some more, Jurong Point is a interchange station for MRT and buses. Marina Bay on the other hand is a place in Singapore where beautiful night scenes are to be found.

And in this night as well, I started to like the environment and the life in Singapore already. The standard of life in Singapore is very high, very modern, very convenient and most importantly, they are efficient in almost everything.

Below is the photo of my friends, my uncle and me taken at Marina Bay.

Then this is the photo of the Sky Garden building we saw at Marina Bay as well.

Very nice right, next time when got chance, I'm going to bring my loved one and my family go there together. But we will just go there for vacation and shopping, not staying there permanently..^^

It's all over, going for a trip soon ~~

Finally, all my works needed to fulfill the requirements for my Bachelor's Degree have done. 4 years of university life was ended with the approval of my final year project supervisor on my thesis writing. Now only waiting for the hard binding to be completed and then submit.

I'll be going for a graduation trip with some of my coursemates in the coming few more days. It will be a trip with 2 purposes, that are release the tension kept within us for 4 years and also celebrating for our graduation. Althought the convocation is still way to go, but it does not mind us because we will start work after come back from the trip...^^

We'll be going to Johor first, then take bus or LRT to Singapore for 3 days 2 nights. After that, we will go back Johor to take my friend's sister car and drive to KL, and we will play around on whole the way to KL. I hope this time we will be able to go to Singapore's Underwater World and also Pahang's Cameron Highland. The trip will use 11 days and I can say is "I wish I can enjoy my trip and I still have enough money after come back from my trip". haha...

Will update blog with photos after I come back from my trip...^^

Boring, yeah...

After done all my things, waiting for my final year project's presentation and start my employment, everyday i have almost nothing to do.

These few days, after woke up and clean up myself, i'll open my laptop and take my handphone besides me. I will first help my mum to do the household, then online for a moment. Usually i'll check my email, check my facebook profile and check for new movies or drama available to download. After checked, i'll let my laptop to download drama or movies. At the meantime, i'll use my laptop to watch drama and sms around with my handphone.

I wanna go out, but i don't like to go out alone and my friends are all busy. I got movie that i wanna go watch at the cinema and i got wish i can go out for a walk. Currently i'm waiting for a friend to finish her works, then she will accompany me go out.

Now, i feel that i wasted too much time on drama. I can finish a series of drama consisted of 20 episodes within 3 days which usually i can't because i don't have time. No matter how, i must try to find something that beneficial to do. I must try to fully utilize usage for my free time. May be use my free time to earn money or learn something new..^^

I need a camera, my own camera

All this time, i thought i do not need a camera, but today i realized that i do need one. Why suddenly i want to get a camera? hehe, there are 2 reasons for it, reasons that changed my mind lately.

The first reason is that i want to take nice photos for my blog. Recently, i addicted to blogging, and i kept on finding title to write for my blog. However, i discovered that my blog was too colourless and feelingless, mostly because of my blog was lacking of photos. Somemore, when i'm trying to write blog regarding my outing and nice food i tried, i was lacking of prove to show it.

May be the first reason sound a bit not convincing in getting myself a camera, but i think the second reason will definitely strong enough for me to get a camera. Previously i read a article about camera, it asked "why people like to take photos?" In the article, i read something very interesting, it stated that "photos are magics that keep your memories at that instant of time forever". It sounds very right and meaningful, suddenly i discovered that i lost a lot of the memories i like.

Thus, i think i should get a camera, i want to keep the memories that i like into something "solid", something that i can keep forever, the softcopy of photos. I want to take photos to prove the existing of the sweet memories, i want to keep record about my family, my loved one and my friends. Someday when i'm old, when i take the photos out, i can use it to flash back about my past.

Currently was planning to get one only, because i need to calculate my budget first and decide what brand which camera i want to buy. Hmm, but mostly i will get a Canon camera, but whice model to buy i haven't decide, may be Canon IXUS 95IS. Camera oh camera, here i come to do my survey.

Battle with exams for my Bachelor's Degree finally ended.

I have taken my Bachelor of Degree since 4 years ago, and i have been into a long lasting battle with exams for 4 years as well. Finally, today it comes to an end and i feel so release within me.

Time for a short break and release tension. After that, need to proceed with my other works already. Anyway, today can be consider quite happy because no more exam waiting for me. Next thing that i want to think is "entertainment"...^^

Yeah, lost control on my financial planning..^^

In the coming end of MAY, i'm going for a vacation as a celebration of my Bachelor Degree graduation trip. There is around 1 more month to go before everything come to the end, but my friends already planned and bought the flight ticket for graduation trip. However, this graduation trip only joined by few people and it costs a lot (I think RM 1.5K cost me alot).

Where am i going? there will be 2 main destinations we will go, first destination is Singapore, the place where the currency exchange cost me more than RM2 for just SGD1. Wow, that cost a lot to a student like me, but since it is the first time i decided to go, then don't wanna care so much already, just spend as necessary, next time earn back. Plus, i already found my uncle to lend us a room in Singapore, so i save a lot from the accommodation aspect. The first place in my mind to go in Singapore is the Underwater World aquarium. Anyway, i'm not the organizer, i will just follow the team and enjoy myself. Haha...^^

Then the second destination will be Kuala Lumpur (KL). Honestly, i don't know where to go in KL because it seems i already been there before. The only place that come into my mind is that i wanna go Cameron Highland if possible. Last time i don't have enough time so i skipped it and it has became 1 of my regret. This time also, i might go visit my KL friends' houses. Haha...

One problem with this vacation trip is i'm going to be broke after come back from the trip. How am i gonna survive after that??? Haha, no worry, there is always way for me, as i'll work to earn money after the trip..^^

University life will come to the end soon...

After 4 years of study for my Bachelor's Degree, finally it almost come to an end. Last friday was the last schooling day in this semester and it was my officially last day of schooling for my Degree. Should i be happy or should i feel sad, i also don't know because both feeling existed within.

I feel very happy because i have completed my study and my life on "study" finally come to the end. Honestly i say, i don't like to study, but i have to study for my future. I feel very sad because i have to split out with my friendly classmates, and say goodbye to my beautiful campus.

In the coming few months, i will start to work and earn money, achieving my dream one by one. Wishing that tomorrow will always be a better day for me..^^

Thesis done!!!

After struggling for days, sleep very less and work very hard, finally my final year project (FYP) is done and my thesis writing come to the completion. Today 3.30pm, i officially declared that my FYP is completed and i can relax for the moment of time.

Honestly i say, actually i do not really happy for my FYP, because i think i wasn't taking the FYP seriously. I got results for my FYP, but the results were only the basic in the field of my topic. If i was taking the FYP seriously start from the beginning, may be i can come out with a much better performance system for my FYP. Haha, my friends will sure say that i'm asking too much from myself, my personality. 

Anyway, my FYP does fulfilled the project objectives and my thesis writing was approved by my supervisor, i think i should just accept how my FYP end. The next things need to worry are the coming final exam and my FYP presentation. Especially the FYP presentation, i wish i will never get a killer as my external examinar else i'm going to receive some interesting questions. haha... 

For the coming 2 days, i think i will focus on entertainment and rest only, it is an award to myself for working non-stop for the past few days, or may be weeks. What will come next, i do not afraid at all, and i will be prepare for it. Haha..

Hmm, i don't even know what have i been bla bla bla at this post about. In my mind is "University life end soon, need to find "big" money!" soon, haha...

diary edition - saving people

15 March 2010

Within 1 day period, less than 24 hours, i saved 4 persons, but who can save me?

1st person, my classmate who having difficulty in her final year project. I do't really know what happened, but i just explain her things that necessary. I only make a simple explaination and draw something for her to see the thing clear and proceed her final year project. Just a simple action, i helped a friend and i felt grateful.

2nd person, my junior who is rushing to find a place for industrial training. She already applied 2 months ago but she still has not received any news, not even from 1 of the companies that she applied. Her friends all get it already and she urgent need a respond for her industrial training. I made a phone call to my ex-supervisor where i did my industrial training and sent few smses, settled for her. What a surprise, i managed to help her get interviewed within 2 hours. Am i a famous and well known industrial trainee in that company? I'm wondering..=.=

3rd person, my another junior, which is younger, seeking help for her project. This one needs technically and conceptually support. I multitasking teached her while i'm doing my final year project, start from the late evening until midnight i explained the concept and programming coding to her. I also helped her to find resources to get the corresponding needed coding, part by part explained to her while i'm doing my things. Seriously, i never thought i still can focus multitasking in 2 technical things, her project programming and my own final year project programming. Yeah, my multitasking skill level up already.

4th person, one of my best friend who is currently working in other country called around midnight. He called because his mood very not good and hoped that i can be his listener. From his voice, i can sense that he was very down, very sad. No need further words from his mouth, i know what actually happened and i feel sad for him. He is my best friend, he got a future to create and a company's contract bonded, impossible i will let him fell down, so i became his listener and gave him advices. Tonight, althought i don't feel like i have being a good listener, but luckily he is alright after talked to me and i do hope that his life will be better after wake up from sleep tomorrow morning.

In this short period of time, i also finished my programming, tested the system and i get a very unexpected result. I need help, but i was lacking of resources, technically support and hardware support. I need help, tomorrow it wil be my turn seeking help from my friend. Haha..

I can save people, but who can come save me? don't want to think about it, better i go sleep and make sweet dreams first..haha..

Tomorrow will be better...^.^

Decision made, A path is chosen!!

Today i signed the contract with the company that offered me a job, a stressful but with great payback engineering job. I delivered it to the company this morning and there will be no more turning back for me but work or them. The contract bonded me for the coming 3 years, and they expecting me to perform better and work harder than the ordinary engineers that they hired.

Now think back what happened this morning is like a dream, so fast, before i graduate i already have a job waiting for me. A job that might be more stressful than i can expect, but offered a higher salary and greater benefits compare to the others job that i can find. Will it be alright for me to take this path? Honestly i do not know also, but 1 think i know is that, since i already decided to take the job, take the challenges, there will be no more turning back already. I signed the contract, i have no choices but to report to work as agreed, unless i pay the big amount of compensate, which is i'm not affordable.  

No worries i told myself, 3 years only, it will end very fast. In the mean time of the 3 years, i'm going to do some investment or make some small business if possible. I want to earn more in short period of time and i have dreams that i want to fulfill, a responsibility that i need to carry.

I walked my path, at the point that split into paths, i made my decision and continue my path. No matter what waiting me ahead, i shall face it. I'm not a boy anymore, i'm a guy. Decision made, no regret!!! Gambathe to myself..^^

Outing with my Best Friend..^^

3 days before 2010 Chinese New Year, I have accompanied my best friend went shopping and as well as to buy some CNY things. At first I never thought that I will no need to drive, so I drove to her house, then she suddenly told me that she will drive, because she wants to familiar the driving condition in Kuching since she has been long time studying else where and so didn't drive at here. Haha, in my friends list, she is the second "female" friend that fetched me.

Hmm, first time been fetched by my this best friend, at first quite worry about my friend driving skill, wandering will she drifts or drives recklessly. However, she impressed me how steady is her driving skill, I didn't feel afraid at all. Her skill is even better than some guy friends that I know, because althought she also like to drive fast, she managed to control the speeding, slowing, braking and cornering perfectly, keeping the damage on the car to the most minimum amount. Most importantly is that she drives safely.

I was been asked by my friend, am I ok that I was fetch by a girl? Hmm, I do not consider been fetched by girl something that humiliating guy's pride, so I do not mind. Quite enjoying been fetched by my friend actually, hope that next time still can have such chances. Haha...but with a pretty girl (super model level pretty girl le) like my best friend fetched me, I was been targeted by alot people eyes, feeling like been assumed that I bulliying a pretty girl...zzZ..

Preparing for Chinese New Year even I'm Busy..

Chinese New Year (CNY) is coming in few more days, but a lot of things not yet buy due to insufficient of time. Project that carry on my shoulder seems heavier and tougher than i imagined, causing me to spend longer time than i have planned to do it. The important part is that i will have to carry the project pressure during the coming CNY. But no matter how, few days ago, i decided to let it down for few days and help out my family to welcome CNY. CNY is an important day to chinese, and i shall celebrate it happily.

Cleaning this and that, wishing to finish everything as soon as possible, my work's efficiency increased by at least double. Few days of hard work cleaning my "traditional" house, causing me to feel exhausted. However, seeing the cleanliness of the house made me feel that it is worth to be tired. But there are still works waiting for me, bake cake..zzZ...luckily i like to cook...^^

Hmm, talking about bake cake, this year baked cakes showed that my skill starts rusting already. Although the cakes were not "beautiful", but they still taste good as last time, so they still can be used to serve guests that come visit during CNY. Appearance might not nice, but i guarantee the taste still maintain delicious. Haha...

Do not talk much about this topic, because i already lost interest in celebrating it "glamorously". Haha, forget to talk about Valentine's day. This year 2010, very coincide that CNY and Valentine's day fall on the same day. Hence, i wish to have a memorable Valentine's day more than CNY. Hmm, i wander will my friends celebrating CNY or Valentine's day???

Anyway i shall keep my curiousity for this moment of time. Hereby, i wish everyone who celebrate CNY a prosperous Chinese New Year and Happy Valentine's as well. For who got "partner", do not let go of Valentine's day celebration just because wants to celebrate CNY..^^

Talent Scounting

8 February 2010, the first time i attended a very professional job's interview in my life. Hmm, may be i should said it was an extraordinary talent scouting instead of 'interview'. That was the first time in my life where i was been forced to think non stop in the short period of few hours. For the past 24 years, i never came to the situation where i need to think using my brain that much in such short period of time.

It was a scholarship program organized by a big company and it was offered to local fresh graduates. In my class, less than 10 percent of the coursemates has applied and been selected for the final interview. And very lucky in a way, i was the first person to be interviewed. Reached there, with no feeling at all and without preparation, i stepped into the company door. I met the HR officer-in-charge, she told me that it is not an ordinary interview, it was actually a talent scouting and i will be interviewed by 2 high level executives, the company's HR director and CEO. "Ohh, ok", a simple respond i gave the officer. Still no feeling at all, just hope that i can end the interview faster because i was starving since i went there directly after lecture classes.

Firstly, i met the HR director, first impression i already knew that i will have a "happy" time dealing with his "interesting" questions. At first i managed to answered his question clearly and calmly, but slowly his question became harder to answer. Just as expected, his question cannot be answered correctly no matter how i try to turn the point. I was been given pressure and pressure, at the end, i start cannot answer his question. His question seems very tricky, because no matter i answer 'yes' or i answer 'no', and gave him the reason, the answer would not be truely correct. But i was not that lazy to think at that time, i twisted my mind and gave him an answer that is not the answer to his question, but the answer will fulfill the requirement of the question in indirect way. I think my answer impressed him in some points, so he decided to end the interview session. I came out from the room and rest for awhile, and i'm hungry. Haha..

I calm down my mind and met the CFO. This part of interview althought didn't work as well as i hoped, but at least much better than the interview with the HR director. I did managed to answer the CFO question with his expected point. This part of interview, at least i can score more than 80% out of 100%, i think. Hmm, one thing i realized from the interview was that they hope to seek for future managerial level employee, not the ordinary type of engineer. More indirect thing observed from the interview is that they hope to look for people that they can see things a CFO can see, a person who can see through the eyes of an 50 year-old successful guy eyes, standing tall in the world. Wow, what a challenging task for fresh graduates.

After the interview session, the officer asked me to stay until all the candidates done the interview as they will give us a simple presentation after that. They asked me to online at their computer lab while waiting. More important thing is, i'm on diet...again...haha, good to help me keep fit (actually they got cafeteria, but i forgotten about it)...

她只是想你宠她，想你抱她，哪怕，没有道歉。

其实很多男孩子都不知道，女孩子在冲他们发火后自己转过身却在不断啜泣。
其实很多男孩子都不知道，女孩子从来不会真正去生他们的气，因为她是真的喜欢他在乎他。
其实很多男孩子都不知道，女孩子只会对自己喜欢的男生唠唠叨叨，也只会对自己喜欢的人耍性子。

你要知道，假若她不喜欢你，她根本不会来在乎你关心你，怕你做错事情。
你要知道，假若她不喜欢你，她根本不会对你发火不会冲你撒娇让你哄她，在别人面前她都是淑女。
而这一切都只是因为她喜欢你，而这一切都因为你还不够在意她不够懂她。

于是，你们时常争吵，你认为她脾气不好，她认为你不够迁就她。
于是，你们总是冷战，你以为她不喜欢你，她以为你不在乎她。
于是，你们总是莫名其妙的彼此错过，也许擦身而过，本身就是一种悲伤着的无奈与幸福。

要知道，凄美依然是美的一种，并且美的绚丽悲凉而沧桑，那是更加的美。
因为她喜欢你，所以她偶尔冲你发火，时常对你撒娇。 因为她喜欢你，所以她才会生你的气；而又因为喜欢你，她才不会去生气很久。

你可知道，每个女孩子的心都是水晶做的，晶莹剔透，但是很容易就碰伤摔碎。
你可知道，每个女孩子都是不设防的，你那么轻易就闯进她的心，走的时候却只留下伤害。
她从来都不知道，这个世界上根本没有可以让她哭的人，因为真正值得她哭的那个根本舍不得让她哭。
她会很矜持，她会很骄傲，她会很冷淡，她总是嘴里说着你走开，心里却一直叫你留下来。
请你张开你的耳朵，也请你打开你的心，去听她心里真正的呼唤，而不是她嘴里的口是心非。 她会看着你转身，然后她跟着你转身，当侧身而过的时候，你看不见她的泪，滂沱在脸上和心里。

如果你喜欢她，请你多陪她；
如果你喜欢她，请你多宠她；
如果你喜欢她，请你多让她。
如果你喜欢她，请你去听听她内心的声音，那是呐喊——请拥抱她。

在爱情里，总是彼此伤害，彷佛这样才能证明自己爱得激烈爱到轰轰烈烈。
可是，爱情里没有孰对孰错；爱情里更加没有你比我多我比你少。
你爱她，她爱你，如此就已经足够。不要试图让彼此的伤害，让彼此更加脆弱悲伤。

你们彼此相爱，你们需要的是温暖是幸福是甜蜜是快乐，不是伤害。
不要用沉默宣战，不要互不相让，更不要什么话都不讲就冷漠离去。
要知道，你离去的时候，她的眼睛起了雾，她的眼角泛着泪光。
越是安静战火就越传，这是冷战也是彼此的伤害——无论是怎么的复合，那些伤口曾经存在，抹不去。
请给她一个拥抱，用你的拥抱去化解她心里的悲伤与眼角的泪水。
她喜欢你，她绝对不会拒绝你的拥抱，她只会害怕你的冷漠转身无声安静。
也请记住，只要你喜欢她，没有什么是你接受不了的，只要你喜欢她，就喜欢她的一切一切。
那么她所有的小性子所有的坏脾气所有的臭毛病，在你眼里都是撒娇。
也请记住，她喜欢你，她需要的不是你真的转身，她嘴里说着的也不是她的真心话。

她只是想你宠她，想你抱她，哪怕，没有道歉

thank you for not allow me to lose..

Since long time ago, i was known as a guy who really know what i want, what am i doing. But, do i really know what i want? do i really know what am i doing? Honestly i say, i don't know how come some people give me such evaluation. Until one day, you told me the reason, it is because of my mindset...hmm, i don't know how should i accept the reason you gave me, because it sounds like i am special, instead i just wanted to be ordinary. Anyway, i do believe someday i will face some conditions where i can't exactly know what i want, what am i doing, what path should i take.

After ended our middle school, you took your path, i took my another path, we get separated but we stay connected via msn and sms. You worked in different companies and you experienced something different as i did, as i took the path to further study to be a profession. You told me your experience so that i can learn more and grow mature faster. I told you my university life so you can feel the university environment as you gave up the path to further study. However, your life seems polluted by a lot of  dark colour incidents, difficulties in workplace and financial burden. I be your listener, sharing your feeling and i gave your advices. Sometimes even i do not know whether my advice useful or not.  But at the end, you will always said to me "thank you, you are really a good friend". In my heart, i having doubts for the words i gave you, i afraid i gave you the wrong advices but i'm happy that you feel better. I sensed that you knew, but you never ask me, mostly because you already knew the reasons i kept the "question marks" just for myself. You and me can talk about anything, we can teach each other something new, we grow mature together and we become best friend for each other.

That "someday" arrived again around half a year ago, this time i totally lost control of my feeling and i can't think properly. I felt so upset and i almost fall down. I talked to nobody because i don't how, how to trust people with such matter, what opinion will people give me and affect me in making decision. But you sensed that i was in trouble just simply via our msn chatting, then you said to me " Last time you always be my listener, my advisor. This time, let me be your listener, be your advisor. Your bright future still far ahead, i won't allow you to lose at here". Thanks to you, i manage to stand still until now.

The first time I was betrayed by one of my best friend 4 years ago, i lost trust in people, but you showed to me that you are worth for me to trust. You showed to me that this world is not as terrible as i knew, you teached me to learn to trust people again. Because of you, i learn to be stronger, i learned to be more mature, i learned to live smart and i found the reason where i can't let myself fall down no matter what, it is all because of you. Thank you my friend, thank you for not allow me to lose..

Thank you.

new year, 2010 countdown

31dec 2009, the last day of the year before humanity step into year 2010, i was supposed to go out for count down celebration with my coursemates. However, the outing was cancelled due to the numbers of people that unable to join us for the count down. From a group of 6 persons reduced to 3 persons and hence my friend decided to cancel the outing. However, i received a sms from one of my friend asking me to go out for count down celebration after that. I thought since I might boring at home too, so I decided to go out with her.

Ordered side dishes

We went out for japanese food during dinner and then we went to a shopping mall for a walk. It has been quite long time I didn't go out for such relaxing outing, it helped me to release stress and clear all the messy matter inside my mind. That night, I was able to put down everything in my mind, all the burden on my shoulder and have a wonderful night. Some more, my friend always know how to cheer me up and be my listener, gives me suitable advices.

Around 11.30pm, we drove to a place near a shopping mall that got fireworks performance on 12am midnight. 3, 2, 1..., year 2010 arrived and the fireworks started. The fireworks performance was very beautiful, it covers the dark cloudy night with colourful and varieties of "flower". Standing below the sky, watching the fireworks performance, we felt like we were the characters of a romantic story.

After that, I fetched my friend went home and dropped in my friend's house for a drink and chat awhile. I reached home at 2am and straight went into bed because too sleepy. It was an enjoyable countdown outing afterall...^^
