My Sister's Blog - Check it Out =D

My sister has a blog now. It is not actually her personal blog, it is for some of her products. In fact, I helped her to set up the blog. She is currently a freelancer working on business on various fields. So, this is one of her field - some accessories for the girls. Before this she never knew what blog is, and what blog can do to promote her products online - so I helped her to set the blog up, and consequently maintains the blog after this.

Check her blog out here:

Noor's Worlds of Crystal & Accessories

If you're interested to get the products, you can contact me directly or just follow the instruction there. Promote...promote..hahaha. =D

Selamat Hari Raya, Maaf Zahir & Batin.

Caffeine = Insomnia

I think I haven't sleep for the last 24 hours. I don't really remember how much caffeine did I take last night. I tried to sleep but the caffeine in my blood pretty much told me not to. I woke up and start my routine with studying? Of course not. This week is going to be the last week in UTP before Hari Raya holiday. My mind is not in UTP, not anymore...only my body is.

If you asked me, how is the final year so far? I can quickly answer, "It is very well-packed with projects, but it doesn't mean my life is over." I have to at least open my photoshop program or browse through the internet - or else I'll explode thinking of all those projects.

This is gonna be my last post before Raya, so I would like to wish all of you "Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri, Maaf Zahir & Batin." Kita manusia biasa memang tak boleh lari daripada melakukan kesilapan, oleh itu marilah kita saling bermaaf-maafan sempena bulan yang mulia ini. 0-0

I need to sleep now. It's almost 7.00 AM!

Fabulosity..?

It is a dinner for july 04/05 batch. I'm not gonna promote it here further since many of you already knew about it, but what I wanna share is the blog for the event:

Click here for Fabulosity

Visit the blog, it is really fun to read all those comments, especially from those heartless types who think that they are better than others, in fact they are NOT at all. Anonymous, sindarela...all kind of persons from nowhere...well if you've read this blog for a long time, you'll notice that I've posted about this before.

Just one word, if you really want to help the event, give positive criticism and not judgment of everything that the committee did. You think that you know better because you've handled such event before? Think twice because everything is not the same all the time. Things change.

This is just my few cents, I'm not a committee member of the event, and I'm still thinking whether to go or not but I have nothing to say, to lose or to sorry about if anyone is offended by this post.

Later, then.

Long time no see...LOL :D

Berhabuk dan berdebu lagi blog aku ni. Saban hari semakin jarang aku singgah di sini. Terus terang aku katakan, aku asyik me'lagha' di DeviantART.com. Semakin hari semakin lagha. Hahahaha. :P

Just some update, alhamdulillah, setelah beberapa kali mencuba nasib dalam beberapa digital art contest di website tersebut, aku menang dalam dua contest. Salah satunya menerusi gambar ini:




Dan satu lagi, menerusi hasil kerja aku yang ini:




What type of prizes that I've won? I won mainly subscription to the site (I won 3 years ++ subscription that is worth about RM300.00). I also won some prints (print is just like poster of digital artwork). The other prizes are mainly exclusive stock photos, commision of artwork, journal feature, and etc. You will not understand most of these terms unless you're active on DeviantART just like me. Hahahaha. :P

I know...I know, someone who read this post will say, what is he bragging about? I'll simply answer, "This is my blog, so I'll just brag about almost anything I wanted to."

That's all of my bragging...comment if you like to, keep quiet if you don't..Hahahahaha.

Jane..~ see you later in the next post. I'll try to update as often as possible in the near future..hopefully.

Hobi Saya Ialah Mengumpul Setem

Dah lama tak mengupdate blog. Dah berhabuk, berasap, berdebu dan segala macam lagi ber-- blog aku yang tak seberapa ni. Dua hari lepas one of my bestest friends in MRSM Pengkalan Chepa, Pak Thani give a shout in my chat box. Forget about "Pak" title, he is one day younger than me. Kepala aku agak pusing sikit malam ni. Dia dah ada blog juga rupanya, dan ini membuatkan semangat aku untuk kembali aktif berblog semakin menebal. Yeah.

Back to the topic, hobi aku dulu-dulu mengumpul setem. (Dulu-dulu = zaman sekolah rendah). Sekarang aku tak lagi aktif untuk menambah collection, cuma kadang-kadang aku akan tengok balik setem-setem yang aku kumpul. Ini adalah sebahagian collection yang aku paling hargai, especially yang harimau kumbang tu. Sebabnya? Salah satu setem harimau kumbang itu aku tukar dengan kawan aku yang sangatlah kedekut (ops! that's the truth) - aku kena bagi dia sampai 15 keping setem aku yang lain hanya untuk satu setem dia. Semuanya kerana aku nak cukupkan full set. At that time, aku dah ada tiga tapi dia cuma ada satu of the same set. Tapi aku rasa berbaloi dan puas hati bila set tu dah cukup di tangan aku. Wahaha :D

Harimau kumbang oh harimau kumbang...~

POS Malaysia...tapir...Sepang

Kucing-kucing yang cumil, digemari oleh adikku..tapi bukan aku. Hahaha

P.Ramlee...KLIA

Malaya - my oldest stamp

Ok lah, itu sajalah update untuk kali ini. See you later in the next post. What should I write next? Choose one - you may take this topic for your post too..I don't mind:

1. Kemerdekaan - 31 Ogos dah dekat..
2. Ramadhan - Bilakah kita akan start puasa..Isnin, Selasa?
3. Aku balik rumah weekend ni? Hahahah...seronok2.
4. FYDP, FYP, Project..project..where is my life? Hahaha.


Oh, sebelum terlupa, aku ingin mengucapkan selamat hari lahir ke-14 buat adikku yang montel. Today is his birthday...may Allah bless him. Amin.

Life as a student in UTP

I have no idea for new post. Not much of experiences to be shared, not much of incidents to be spilled out either. Heard of "kes buang bayi" somewhere around here, but what is the buzz? It is not nothing new except that it happened over and over again among college students who were once expected to be the future leaders. I don’t want to talk about that. Jagalah diri, hiasilah peribadi. Someone said, "Nak buat jahat pun pandai-pandailah. Jangan sampai malu diri sendiri dan menyusahkan orang lain (family, etc)."

Enough of that matter. This is what I wanna talk about. What is the difference between being in the final year and the previous junior-years? Not much except that there are a lot of projects going on. I wonder what the real purpose of these projects is. I don’t want to talk about that any longer either. The main thing is, UTP is still the same in term of internet connection, etc. It is really frustrating when I really want to do my projects and assignments but the connection just sucks. Sometimes, it takes forever to load a simple page like Google. How much do we have to pay for the connection? Does anyone here know about the price? What I know is it doesn’t come with a FREE price tag. Maybe it is included somewhere in the fees.

And secondly, the "good" news is allowance for this month is still pending. Good! It is already August 6. Make megi repih pat la napoknye bulan ni, dok gitu best buddy? Hahaha. I don’t wanna talk about that any further either. Then some strangers who read this post will ask, "Why don’t you complain about these matters to the respective persons/departments?" And I’ll simply answers, "I don’t wanna do that, not anymore because they are the same persons who had received similar complains approximately 1-2 years ago, and the same things happen over and over again!"

It’s not that I am not grateful to be here. I am. It’s just that sometimes I feel lost (in the Lost World of Tronoh) and disappointed with some of these facts.

Created New Blog.

I decided to open a new blog. From this moment onwards, only anything related to my personal life and routine will be posted in this blog. For general info or reviews (movies. artwork, website review etc), they will be posted in my new blog. For the start I have transferred some of the reviews from this blog to my new blog. Soon, these blog will only contain something related to my personal routine as I'll save those posts related to general info as drafts. Thank you.

XxX .Banned shop. XxX

My roomate and I sent our Industrial Internship Final Report for hard cover binding purpose to one of the shops at Bandar Seri Iskandar last week on Sunday (20th July 2008). The report was supposed to be submitted to the UTP Supervisor last week (due date was 25th July). I saw a massive number of ordered books at the shop, and quickly asked the owner whether he wanted to take new orders. He agreed instantly, and promised that the hard cover binding will be completed by Wednesday (23rd July).

So, we went there on Wednesday, and found out that our reports were still not ready. The owner (this time a woman) said that the books will be ready by Thursday afternoon. I had some uneasy feelings at that time, but I still considered that hopefully by Thursday we will get our reports back.

On Thursday (afternoon), we went to the shop again and discovered that the shop was closed. What the heck?? Friday was the due date! We explained to the owner before that we have to submit the report by Friday. Did they ignore this fact? Unfortunately, we didn't have their phone numbers. If not, I might throw some 'beautiful words'. Oh No..I am a student of UTP. I can not tarnish the university's image. :p

So, we went to the shop again (4th time) in the evening on the same day. Luckily that time it was opened, but unluckily the reports were still not ready. I remember exactly how the lady said, " Jangan bimbang, saya dah buat kerja ni dah lama, tak pernah ada problem. Esok you akan dapat balik buku (referring to the reports) you paling lewat pukul 2 petang. Biasanya tengah hari you dah boleh dapat. Nanti I message."

Tunggu punya tunggu, esoknya (Jumaat) sampailah lepas habis solat Jumaat, tak ada satu pun message yang sampai. I decided to call my UTP Supervisor for the Industrial Internship, Dr. Chandra Mohan to delay the report submission. I was very lucky that he said yes, and I may submit my report on Tuesday - 29th July (he was not around on Monday 28th July). Fuh, lega. Alhamdulillah.

Petangnya, tepat jam 5.20 petang, aku dan rumet menerima message yang sama, "Buku dah sampai!" - that was exactly how the owner type the message, dengan satu tanda seru. Bukannya nak cakap elok-elok. Contohnya at least cakap la macam ni, "Salam, buku dah sampai. Maaf sebab lambat." Aiyoo..itu pun nak kena ajar ka? Masa tu we're on our way back home (Kota Bharu). Aku just reply, "Baru sampai ke? Kami dah terpaksa explain kat lecturer sebab tak hantar report on time." - and there was no reply.

Aku malas dah cakap panjang. Cakap panjang-panjang pun tak guna. Dah panjang pun. Kalau nak cakap pasal kualiti laagi laa..tambah-tambah panjang. Hahaha. For your information ni dia kedai tu (marked in red). So tengok betul-betul kalau nak hantar report atau apa-apa kerja lain yang penting:

Look closely (sebelah kedai tauke cina tu..)

I'm not in any sense nak sekat rezeki orang atau seumpanya, I just wanted to express my uneasy feeling towards the service providers out there that never think of their bad service to the customers. Do they think that they can go on easy for another years to come if they continue with the same attitudes? I wonder when our country will achieve that 2020 thing. Huh.~

Back in UTP. ~

Second day in UTP. I was in UTP since yesterday (20/07). So how's UTP after eight months? Sama saja macam dulu. Nothing much has changed except the food price is at the very highest level sejak zaman penubuhan UTP. Kalau nak katakan makanan bertambah sedap, tidak pula. Memanglah bersyukur kerana masih ada makanan dan tidak kebulur namun, alangkah bagusnya kalau berada di rumah. Teringat makanan di rumah. Huh..~

As usual, awal-awal semester kenalah susun jadual, daftar kelas itu dan ini. Nothing much, macam biasalah agak kelam kabut awal-awal ni. Pening juga dengan clash2 nya kelas elektif dengan major semua. Adeh.

UTP macam dulu saja. Orangnya (akulah) pun tak berubah sangat - sama saja mind set nya. Mungkin agak membandingkan suasana kerja dan belajar sajalah. I miss good old days in Germany, and I miss masakan mak.

Good news is, my best buddy (currently my rumet too :D) and I will be going back to our hometown this weekend. Yay..can't wait for that moment. :D ~

Alhamdulillah - Back Home

Alhamdulillah, 14 Julai 2008, tepat jam 6.30 pagi (waktu Malaysia), aku selamat tiba di KLIA. Perjalanan dari Frankfurt mengambil masa kira-kira 11 jam 30 minit. Next to me is a German woman, who currently lives in Australia. She’s very friendly, similar to Germans that I have met before. Perjalanan memang menyeronokkan kerana aku duduk di sebelah tingkap pesawat. The scenery was amazing, and it was really fun to talk to her. She shared a lot of her view related to Germany and Australia. As usual, these are some of the shots that I captured on the way from Frankfurt – KLIA (katalah aku jakun sebab amik gamba banyak sangat - aku memang jakun pun! :p) :

Setibanya di KLIA, aku terus menuntut bagasi dan menuju ke kaunter untuk check-in bagi penerbangan seterusnya dari KLIA ke Kota Bharu. Selesai check-in, I went to KFC for breakfast. I requested for an X-Meal but only nasi lemak was available – RM7.50 + a cup of tea! Dahlah kurang sedap. Kalau kat kampung aku baru RM1.00, sedap pula. Selesai makan, aku ke ruang menunggu.

Tepat jam 10.15 pagi aku meninggalkan KLIA, dan kira-kira jam 11.00 pagi, aku tiba di Lapangan Terbang Sultan Yahya Petra, Pengkalan Chepa. Some shots during the flight from KLIA-KB:

Welcome back to me! It was really fun to be back. It is not fun however, thinking that I’ll be going back to UTP soon – all the hectic life, etc. It makes me wanting to go back to the internship life. Hahahah. See you later in UTP :p
