I am back, with 2012 Resolutions.

Can’t imagine, the previous post I wrote, is about 1 and 6 months ago. That period was my working life, a lot of up and down, was fucking busy, and glad I grown up a lot in this 16 months of working life. I mentioned ‘was’, as I am in a jobless position, yet it feels so great.

I don’t have a clear 2011 resolutions, which makes me slightly regretted, so I will have 2012 resolutions. hehe.

 

Been asking myself, what’s the purpose of life (yet, until now, I don’t quite able to answer that, by the fact that, everyone dies at the end, LOL), at least when achieved goals, make me feel life is meaningful. It’s a journey, a game, with strategy to win it. While it can be won, it can be lost too, that’s the fun part of it. It’s important to make sure the goal is clear and specific.

 

Here are the resolutions of 2012, in summary, start from most important.

1. Run my first startup.
2. Travel to Tibet, and hike to Himalaya base camp.
3. Being able to do Toe Fake 20 cones (inline slalom move).
4. Join a major freestyle slalom competition at overseas.
5. Gain weight to 55kg. (I find it the hardest challenge)
6. Skydiving. (See if Groupon provides cheap one or not)
7. Travel to East Coast Malaysia, include .
8. Get a MacBook Pro 15. (ouch!)
9. finish 3 books: In The Plex, Steve Jobs Biography, and one more still pending)
10. Sponsor a child with WorldVision.

 

 

That’s it. Check back 1 year later, and see what I done.

10 件毕业感言

4年的大学生活已经结束了。虽然有好多的不舍，但生活还是要往前走。

离开了大学生涯，虽然带有一点点伤感，但整体来说，还是蛮开心的~ 因为这段期间认识了好多人，大大小小，明明暗暗，好好坏坏，（大多数都是好人啦）。

4年里学了好多事情，这里不谈课业里学到的，想把自己在4年里学到的道理写出来，有10个，就让那些还在上着大学的朋友分享下：

1. 钱不是最重要，开心才是关键。但不要搞到自己没钱吃饭。
2. 对不起不要随便说，说了就要实践它。
3. 这时间很大可能会遇见生命中的伴侣，请认真地考虑和珍惜她/他。
4. 课可以旷，但请确定自己有本事旷。
5. 除了学业外，最好有一项会让自己骄傲的运动。
6. 不要凡事都怪老师不会教，只要是看你自己要不要学，Google已经很发达了。
7. 很多时候都是朋友陪我们度过一切，所以要好好珍惜他们。珍惜，其实就是感激。别忘了自己也是好多人的朋友。
8. 控制好自己的脾气，否则很容易犯下后悔一生的错误。
9. 在这段时间跌倒，只需要站起来笑一下，然后继续走，没有人会笑你的；如果你坐在地上不肯爬起来，才会被笑。
10. 不要装可怜来让别人注意，因为没人会每一次都同情你的，遇到问题就要自己去解决，写一大堆和说一大堆，要给谁知道？

每个人都有不同的体验吧，你们在4年里有体会到什么？

其实，我好幸运。

感谢我认识了你，珮如。

最后一个夏天

在你我他都没意识到的情况下，4年已经来到最后的两个礼拜。

现在已经是五月，考完试后，大学生活就结束了。

我不能说我开心，因为我很害怕失去；

但面对的还要面对，一些事情，是掌控之外的。

你相信距离吗？人和人的距离会因为实际上的距离而疏远吗？

那就要看你肯花多少心思去保持。

毕业后，一大堆的问题会跳出来：PTPTN怎么还？在哪里找工作？什么样的工作？hometown 还是 KL?

不想了，过后才想。

每个人，请加油，就请你去拼命，当最后一回的学生吧。

金莎，《最后一个夏天》，很有毕业难舍气氛的一首歌，请看好歌词，很感动~

Finally

Finally, I completed my FYP.

FYP is Final Year Project, a term that widely used in MMU, but most local university prefer the term, thesis.

And I believe, most people hate it. (right?)

This project had been started since last year November 2009, duration until April 2010, about 7 months of planning and implementation, which I learned A LOT A LOT A LOT A LOT A LOT x 10000.

Project successfully implemented on time, with most expected features. When I submitted it just now, a sudden feeling of emptiness in my mind. Not because I had nothing to do anymore, but this project already took about 85% of my brain capacity, and I need time to get balance.

Computer was my best friend, my primary language become C#, sometimes woke up at 8am with the whole brain full of codes and algorithm, ish.

I can’t remember the last time what movie I watched… I can’t remember when is the last time I walk in a mall… I can’t remember when I got haircut, I can’t remember when I back hometown…

(actually I do remember, just the time is too long~)

This project, makes me realized that everyone has weakness. I have my weakness, you have your weakness, and I shall not assume everyone has the skill that I have.

To my FYP partner leekian, sorry for some quarrel during this project, I learned my lessons, and thanks for your all kind of support, directly or indirectly, you do did a great job. I did promise will score A for this project, and I can see we really tried our best, thank you to make this project complete on time, the rest is up to the moderator and supervisor. Thanks again to be my partner.

So, FYP completion present came early. I bought a new Seba iGoR skates for myself, and train hard to get to Korea for my first big competition~ (hopefully)

Congratulation to everyone who completed the FYP on time (and myself). I need to slowly get back my life!

辛苦

一点都不简单

一点都不容易

我真得好辛苦。。。你看得到吗？

Finally, you are gone…

Remember the first time I saw you, you seem special, and you were my only one. I spent quite some time with you, until she appeared.

She had a foxy tail, and, definitely, better than you, in everything. So, slowly, I gave up on you…

Ok, enough crap. It’s just about Internet Explorer 6 and Firefox.

Since Google remove the support for old browser like IE6, it forced organization to upgrade their browser to the supported version. This is Google’s initiative to push the Internet forward, and I totally support it~

Internet Explorer 6 died on 1st March, 2010.

Aten Design Group organized a funeral for IE6, which quite hilarious, but it’s a respect for a browser which been on the Internet for 8 years… RIP.

R.I.P.

 
IE6 last look.

 
Don’t cry my friend, IE6 will be remembered.

 
Before closing the coffin.

 
We will miss you.

 

Wonder will they make a funeral for Windows 98 or 2000?

Hello~

Been abandoned this site for some time.

Not because I lack of blogging idea, I have quite a lot to share, but workloads are pressing me so hard.

So, here is another blue moon EMO post~

Been trying to accept what I lost, forever. But things can never be so easy. Memories are something that can motivate and push me forward, so powerful; yet if not ‘think’ it correctly, memories can kill.

Currently, still continue developing system for my internship’s boss, and at the same time, FYP aka Final Year Project. Double workload, with same 24 hours, caused me have to sacrifice most of my time with my laptop.

Last few months ago when my internship program came to an end, I was asked by boss if I want to continue developing the project, I accepted so happily, hoping I can learn extra knowledge to work on my FYP team, yes, indeed, I reused a lot of the concept on my FYP, and also some small extra income to support me until graduate.

All the while, I strongly believe that hard work and time can solve ANY problem, even how IMPOSSIBLE it can be, as long as DON’T GIVE UP. It’s true, and it’s always true throughout my life. Things I want, targets to achieve, I set it, I can reach it.

Then I realized, all the targets are seldom come from myself: study hard is for my family, work hard is for people I care, all for the future of a better living for them. If I am alone, I guess I won’t be studying and working this hard. I took this responsible happily, and wish only they appreciate and don’t treat me as outsider. (hey, there is nothing wrong with my family)

At some point, because of my ego, I lost my temper, and I lost the most important one in my life. Words that said out, can’t be taken back; apologise never been accepted. Everything is gone.

For now, I can never wish to return to any previous stage, things that I promised, I can’t fulfil. Just wish that, you can forgive such a silly guy.

 

Erm, what I want to deliver in this post? Is up to people who read it. I just wanted to shout out the thought that buried in me for 4 months… Always, jia you. And, some times, hard work don’t return, but DON’T GIVE UP!

Day 6: Last Day in Sabah

Continue from previous post.

Sorry for a long delay from Day 5 post. Life is getting very very hard and stress. But without writing day 6, things get incomplete :)

Day 6 is quite a resting day to all of us, after getting down from the mountain. Most of us have sore legs, that makes walking so pain!

The flight is at 7pm, so basically we had half day to walk around. We had a breakfast at Gaya Street, is Curry Mee. How to say? It’s different. The noodle is special, which looks like cintan mee, but it’s not.

The street of Gaya in the morning. Motocycle is rare thing at there.

The new mall, Suria Sabah. It’s still not yet fully open, with a lot empty shop lots. By that time has book fair with dirt cheap book, so I got 1 humour book, which until now I also not yet finish reading :(

X-Plorer Backpackers, our stay places. Got to check out by 1pm, haiz… Good bye! i will miss the people~

 
The transparent toilet, cool~

 
Lunch was Dumpling with Century Egg noodle. Not that impressive, and expensive… chop tourist one!

 
This is the central market. It’s full range of souvenirs, like pearls, handcrafts, batik, aiya, all sort of traditional toys and keychains. Do some head count, then bought some gifts to friends.

 
After some “long” and tired walk, is time to sit down and have some drink. Coconut drink is all time favourite. I still don’t know where they got that much of coconuts, and the whole street is selling the same drink, same price… Weird.

1 coconut is RM2.50, for cold one is RM3.00. Each of us ordered 1 coconut, drink till very full, a very satisfy one!

Some fruit I don’t know the name… With very weird taste, yuck.

 
People is playing chess under tree, so “happening”.

 

The guy at X-Plorer helped us hired a taxi to the Airport, RM25 just for a damn 10 minutes drive. If next time I am jobless, I will drive taxi in Penang.

 
At the airport, I saw clown fish, Nemo.

 
With his friend, Dolly. (ignore the uncle behind)

 
And another ugly friend.

 
See what Dolly is doing…? Ha.

 

The flight departed at 7pm, and reached KLIA at 9:30pm, roughly. Everyone was tired, but this trip is very significant to me.

1. This is the first destination that I been in my travel list, still have many more pending.
2. This is my 100% self sponsored trip, thanks to my boss who pay for my work~ Whole trip spent about RM1200 include 2 ways flight. And in the future, all will be self sponsored.
3. Whole trip was planned with Nana using Google, GPS, and read forums, and all bookings are done directly with the service, no agents involved. Cut cost~
4. First time encounter wild boars family, scare the shit out of us.
5. Thanks to mom who called me every night.
6. Thanks to Bobby, Nana, and Kelvin to be so sporting to say “YES! Let’s go!”
7. Thanks to my Sony Ericsson C905 phone camera.
8. Thanks to the weather to be so cooperative during our mountain hiking.
9. Thanks everyone who make my day so bright, in my worst ever mood of my life… Thanks.

Sometimes not because you can sacrifice, you can work so hard, you can fall down and climb up again, will come with success. By the time you persuade for something or someone, must set a ‘give-up’ point, else, the one get hurt will be yourself, and no one will feel pity towards you.

So, Kinabalu Trip is done.

I can sense my next trip could be Singapore and Korea, wohoo!!!!!
