update

Haven't been updating for quite a while. Been busy with stuff like work and guitar. Kind of heart wrenching after that Jerry said yesterday. Motivation!!

What have I been up to lately? Actually not much. In fact, nothing. Just the daily routine of going to work, coming back home, online and sleep. Sounds like Jazsica's blog entry ain't it? What to do? That's the bubble we live in.

Well, I'm currently typing this entry in my office. My supervisor is on leave so from today till next Tuesday, so the mood starting from today is always 'Thank God It's Friday' (TGIF) till next Tuesday.

Slacking my ass off using laptop, surfing the internet doing miscellaneous stuff. But what awaits me is a pile of work that I've yet to be briefed. I've just been told a task but I can't start on it cause the engineer at T2 haven't really get to me yet. He's still busy with his stuff. So I'm sort of on a standby mode. Apart from that still lies a load of programming stuff for me to complete after the company get's an approval from their client. I feel that I'm working here as a Software Engineer rather than an intern from NYP.

Well, comparing my life now with the earlier months that I've experienced. I would say things are picking up. But I'm still kind of dissatisfied with my current financial status. I'm so bad at managing my own finance status. If there's a talk or a seminar on that, I would really love to attend them. Provided it's free. (Talk about finance, save money, of course must make it FREE ma, so we can benefit and at the same time save money!) Seriously, I have no clue where to start. Enlighten me someone, anyone..

Guitar repair (pending), Mahjong tomorrow!!!!! HUAT AH!, Shopping trip on Sunday and French lesson are on the way. Really looking forward..

obscurity

I feel really 'pek cek' after what took place yesterday and today. It really made me question myself. I feel insecure and obnoxious all over again.

I question myself with these words again..

What the hell did I do to deserve all of these?

graduation and school matters

I'm still in the kind of bitchy whiny mood about NYP delaying a whole year for my graduation matters. All that are going to be said are my opinions and some of them are the honest thoughts about my course Multimedia and Infocomm Technology(MIT). So just bear with me alright?

Just an information for my fellow schoolmates and classmates that are graduating. Your graduation will be on Friday, 29th May 2009 instead of the rumoured Wednesday, 27th May 2009.



Now. We know all Polytechnics organise their course into different schools like School of Engineering, School of Business and what not. So when we started out on this course MIT, we always thought we would be in School of Information Technology (IT) cause mainly, our cause is an IT course. But when we were in year 1, we never had a chance to step into that school. So we thought, maybe at year 2 or 3, we eventually would.

Guess what?

Apart from those guys who had their Final Year Project (FYP) over at School of IT. We never did.

When we first chose this course, it's listed under School of IT. We got perplexed why we didn't have any lesson over there. Instead, we are always at School of Engineering. And soon, the revolution begins. And now, MIT is listed until School of Engineering. For the past 3 years, I never had a sense of belonging to the course. Not even now. I guess zr was right all along. NYP sucks.

And now comes graduation. Look through the list to see if you find 'Diploma in Multimedia and Infocomm Technology'.

back

well, my computer sort of died and came back alive as and when it likes. i sort of blew the monitor off the other time when my friend came by. didn't give much thought to it. didn't want to rectify the problem too. so the computer was practically left untouched for like a couple of days. it kind of sorted itself up, i didn't know it was alright until that very fateful morning when my brother came in to my room and used the computer.
i'm like thinking, 'this thing's still alive?'
*fingers crossed* let's not overload it this time round. cleared up and backed up alot of stuff just to create more space.

work gets alittle interesting. was tasked to do tons of documentation (boring, boring, boring) and at the same time altering the software which i kind of got the hang of it.


my best score ever! after like thousands of games. 8884!!  you can imagine how bored i am.

it have always been freezing in my office. jacket is a must item for work. so i thought, 'just exactly how cold is my office?' i asked my supervisor.

'16 degrees,' he replied non-chalantly. 

so i thought, fair enough, cold enough to keep the equipments off the possibility of being overheated. next moment, i checked out the equipment like after a month working there.

i've seen my fair share of messy wires. but this is not something even a school's network can compare.


organised chaos?


just imagine you are a networking student and you have to wireup all the equipments and at the same time set ip address, subnet mask for every one of them. i think you will probably faint.

this is very random but oh well *shrugs*

since my laptop is spoit and i've little intention to send it for repairs cause i got a hunch it's going to cost a bomb. i set out hunting for a new laptop. but just hunting, i've no money to get a new one. just look around for the sake of.. looking around lo.

TELL ME THIS LAPTOP IS TOTALLY SEXY! RED IS THE BOMB!

the looks of it is DAMN SEXY. but i can't assure the specs are good. like i always tend to say, 'ho kua bo ho jiak' (look nice but cannot eat).

And oh! Just to tell you guys, i'm officially informed that i can't graduate with my batch of people. suck balls. but oh well, people say, it's just a piece of paper. the gown is totally unneccessary. haveto pay rent for it. i'm not going through all those. so i'll just be back in school on 27th to just share the joy of my friends.

seriously, NYP sucks. i'm just going to finish my attachment and get the hell out of there. except for the friends i made there, everything about the school is fucked up.

till next time.

P.S.: i just lost $27 in mahjong yesterday, NA BEI..
