Hey there ! Sorry for not updating this for too long. Been some time since the last update in 2017. I missed out the whole 2018 in updating anything. Not sure if you have this similar feeling as mine, but as you grow older, you tend to keep everything more privately. Looking back at those memories flashback reminder featured by Facebook, I used to kinda update a lot and expressed a lot about my feelings and thoughts, but these days, I tend to keep a lot of things around myself. Maybe that's the reason why I don't post stuff so often anymore. Here I am, sitting in a cafe at the 2nd Floor in a 6-Storeys Bookstore. Books that I can't read or understand, language that I don't speak or understand but that's the most amazing thing about being in a foreign place that you can't understand because we will then use the heart to feel, eyes to observe, ears to listen and Google Image / Google Translate to express what we want to the Japanese haha Looking out the wind

CONGRATULATIONS CLASS OF 2017 !

Hey there, so it has been a year since I started to join this big crowd. By the word of "big crowd", I mean being part of the causes to traffic jam before and after work 🙊 Well, first and foremost, I need to apologise. If you have read the previous post way back then in 2016, I was supposed to follow up with another post regarding my story in engineering. Unfortunately, I didnt do so. It was because I was having my own time to cope with the gap in between. Flashback, that final week in MMU was so congested with Final Year Project final preparation and I was working really really really hard on my Final Year Project Report because I wanted a good grade very very very badly. Besides, I love my FYP title and I wanted to do my best for it. So, my sincere apologies that I didnt manage to write a post dedicated for the path I choose in engineering. Maybe we can share it over a cup of coffee tho 😉 If you are reading this and totally agree with me that FYP literal

16th May 2016 - First Day, Wk 7, Epsilon Year

As I woke up this morning, the moment I opened my eyes, the very first thought came by, "Today is the first day of Week 7. The last week of my Epsilon year, Final Semester." I am not sure what kind of emotions should I register? It's a mixed feelings. Flashback to the very first day I admitted into Multimedia University, Malacca Campus, it was the first day of the Orientation Week and I was wearing all full formal attire, my hair was short back then. Went through the Foundation Year with so much of fun and lesser stress as compared to the following four years later. As my peers and myself, all "upgraded" to the First Year (a.k.a Beta Year in MMU) things got tougher than before. Some were unfortunately, not able to get through it and some were doing so well and listed as the smart one. I was just the average one. Not the best, and also not the worst. And then I was all being average, all the way in Beta, Gamma, Delta and finally Epsilon. Well, that's for
Somewhere around this time in 2015, I think I wrote a post too. It was during the internship progromme. Time flies. Time conserves  memories, it reveals truths, it accumulate experiences and it heals people, both emotionally and physically. Things have never been stop pushing themselves into my To-Do-List since last year June as I have completed my internship programme in an engineering construction firm. I use the word push because I have no idea how eventually all these items in such miracle manner appeared there! Exams, assignments, lecture classes, tutorials, etc. Those basic duties of mine as a student, to be precise, a mechanical engineering student. Sooner than I know, in another 7 weeks, I am so done with my undergraduate degree that I am most probably have no chance to complain anymore about exams, assignments, classes, etc. Reflecting back the past 23 years of my life, student life started when I was 4 and it continuously rolls like a video recorder until this instant moment

The Short-Lived Vision | Live Through It or Drown In It

Raya celebration just passed. Highschool gatherings and reunions news posted all over on insta and fb. Reunions can be pretty heart warming in sharing about each other lives. Updating news on what they have seen or what they wish to see. Realising how much your friends have grow (or maybe not) but most all, people gossip. Haha. Nope. I didn't join any reunion for this time around. Spending time here in KL with family and doing nothing. Nothing is good. I like it. Haha. Received a phone call from my friend just now telling me that my name was mentioned in the gathering....for bad. Telling I have nothing much for good, being all ordinary and why do I leave good impression to others. All I could do was just to laugh out loud and by when I said I laughed out loud, I really did. It's okay. I wouldn't say I am all grown up or I am an ideal human being, being all perfect and always right but as I come to this stage of life, I have accepted one very simple lesson. You will never

“These are your safety boots and safety helmet. Keep them with you for future site visits.” These are the statements I received from the manager when I first reported to the company. First construction site visit was to Saujana Golf and Country Club. I was in joy and full of anticipation, awkwardly putting on the safety boots and the yellow safety helmet for the very first time, I finally realised, these heavy safety boots and yellow safety helmet didn’t make you as an engineer. You, yourself make you as an engineer. A lot of people who just knew me will ask the typical question, why would I want to be an engineer? And when I refer them back to another question, Why not engineer? Most of the time I will receive such reply, “It is rare. For females, I mean”.  Throwback to years ago when I first decided to pick up engineering as my career, my family was somehow accepted it as a shocking news. They were very afraid if I had too little experience and information regarding en
