It was Valentine's Day yesterday. Everyone had been busy preparing gifts for their loved ones over the past days. It does not matter if the presents are expensive or not. It's the thoughts that matter. Spending valuable time with one another is priceless. Even gifts and presents can't beat it. I bet all the couples were happy yesterday.
It rained so so so heavily yesterday night. My plan to hang out with the ladies was rather up side down... But anyway, it was fun being with them.. I still had a great time though.
I had a small surprise yesterday. It was a pleasant feeling. Though I do not get to have that much fun as expected, I am still very happy yesterday. I haven't had this feeling for quite a while. It's a mixture of happy, angry, +++ which makes it so special. I was having a rather dull day in the morning. It was until evening....after that little surprise...that I started to light up and felt the happiness around me. It might mean nothing to others but it does make my day...

4 March 2010 - 6.11pm
Once upon a time, I was still a student in high school. And now I am a teacher. LoL... I simply love the phrase "once upon a time". ;)
This is the third month in school as a different character. Never did I know I will be a teacher. I had always enjoyed teaching others but I have never considered teaching. As a matter of fact, I do enjoy teaching after all. I am not sure if this is my passion or is it I enjoyed being with the students. I never had this kind of experience before. I mean student-teacher hanging out together, playing badminton and of course serious classes. It was this cute teacher who told me that we can interact with them this way. Be friends with the students will actually pull the student-teacher gap closer and they will benefit from it. I soon understand that the students have more courage to ask questions than before. I believe students have the kind of thought "Teachers are fierce and they will think we are dumb if we ask questions". I used to have this kind of thoughts last time, especially if the teacher is really really fierce.
This is the First Assessment week in SMJK San Min. The Form 5 had their English test yesterday. Though not all of them passed the paper, I am still glad they made improvements in their marks. And the total students who passed the exam also increased 3 folds. This is the greatest satisfaction for me. English has always been a "monstrous" subject in these classes. Perhaps it is because of their Chinese School background. I put in my effort for them and they showed their effort too. Some told me, "Teacher, this is the first time I pass my English test since Form 1", "Teacher, this is the first time I wrote so much in my English paper" and "Teacher, thanks for teaching us". All this really touches me... It really does.

Yesterday was my cousin brother's wedding dinner. It has been a while since I went to any wedding ceremony and wedding dinner. It was rather overwhelming yesterday. To me, it was a great opportunity to gather with some relatives. Some of which I haven't seen for ages and can hardly recognize them anymore. LoL... It reminds me of meeting 1 of my cousin brother few years back when I was having my dinner with my mom. There was this guy who kept looking at my table and kept smiling to me. I was really getting annoyed with his smile as I do not remember knowing this guy at all. When my mom notices that, they both started talking and to my surprise, he is my cousin brother and we both lived in the same small Diamond Bay. Gosh, I was so embarrassed at time. I never met him before. Hmm... Guess I had too many cousins. :P
Today was a great day. We had a mini gathering with a few of my relatives. Also, this was my first time receiving a phone interview. The interviewer was really kind. She made this phone interview because she did not want me to make "unnecessary" travel for my first round of interview. She also told me about my job function and all. She was really nice and kind over the phone. I also made 3 presentations on the spot. 1 question in English, 1 in BM and another in Mandarin. Wow... It was rather amazing to answer that Mandarin question because i was not that good in Mandarin and I was really glad I made it. Relieved. :)
Good Night!

It has been really hot these few days and it finally rained. Though it rained less than half an hour, it is good enough to lower the temperature and tonight is going to be comfortable. I have not been doing much these few days too. All I did is lazy-ing around and of course some cooking to brush up my skills. LoL… Besides, I’ve also watched Namastey London (a Hindi movie), G-Force (amazing guinea pigs group) and today, I watched Aarthma (a Tamil movie). I liked G-Force best. :)
I received shocking news this morning when I logged in to Facebook. Hazmy’s dad passed away yesterday and was buried this morning. Besides sending condolences to him, I really do not know what else I should say to him. It must have impacted him pretty much. I hope he will be strong during this testing time and may his dad rest in peace. Life is so unpredictable; we never know when our beloved ones will leave us. So, appreciate everyone that we love. I always pray that everyone that I love will be happy and healthy all the time. Nothing is more important than to see them happy and healthy. May God bless them always.

22nd November 2009
Once again, I am writing. It has really been a while. I have been busy with my projects and my studies previously. I am glad that all these have finally come to an end.
Semester 1 2009/2010 is my final semester in UKM. I end it with my web programming and graphics projects and of course my final exams. This semester was one of the most beautiful semesters I've ever had throughout my journey in UKM. At least, the worst experience in this semester was only when I got my thesis grades which I do not want to mention anymore. It was a wonderful experience for me to have classes with my juniors. Their batch was totally different from mine. They are the hippie kind of students who regardless of the situation would still crack some jokes and laugh their way through. I believe that this is the best way of life.
"Nothing is impossible if we have the will and courage."
Since I've finished my final exams, I have been hanging out much with my family at home. This is the time when I can do all I can before venturing into the working world which sounded cruel as pictured by the experienced. LoL... Well, I should get myself prepared to enter this "fantastic" world. I believe it is all in our thoughts. If we think positively, all those working pressures can be a force that drive us to excel and move up the career ladder. I know all well that it is easier said than done but if we failed to dream, we failed to success. Anyway, I hope I can climb the career ladder even if I have to start from zero. Obtaining a degree means nothing without experience.
As the most recent update, I am planning a vacation with my family. It is going to be fun but too bad I can't convince my dad to join. What a disappointment. :(
I guess this is all for now. Till then.... :)

I've edited the layout of my blog today. LoL... Just wanted to play around with XML. hmmm.... I had a quiz for web programming today. It was better than the previous quiz. LoL..
We had finally came up with a confirmed template for all the webpages of our web programming project. I am really glad about that. We will proceed with our own parts and then combine it together. I hope we can make it just in time... =)

Today I am tempted to write again. For the past days, I have been busy designing and producing the AutoCAD product. It was finally done and the presentation was yesterday. Designing and implementing it in AutoCAD is 2 different things. Perhaps I did not explore AutoCAD to its max. I find myself having difficulties drawing some parts of my design and I ended up changing the design instead of exploring as I am lacking time. LoL...
I had Web Programming lab test yesterday too. We were given 3 questions, 2 to be passed up at the end of the lab session and another tomorrow. I was happy that I managed to do both the questions in time and it appeared to work on the browser too. ;)
Today was TDRI mid sem exam. This exam had postponed twice and I was glad it is over tonight. It would be disastrous if it was cancelled and held together with finals. :(
I think this paper was okay. Overall, I can answer most questions except a few which I had never came across or I had forgotten?? :P :P
Now, I am left with a few quizzes here and there and 1 more project to go before my study leave this Deepavali. Time passes so quickly that my journey in UKM has almost come to an end. And I can't believe myself that this is the first time that I am so undecided. I can't decide whether I want to continue to Master after I finish my Bachelor... Mom said go home, get a break and think properly... Can anyone convince me to continue or convince me to stop?? Well, my sis crack the biggest joke ever; stop studying. get a rich man, get married and enjoy life... LoL...
