Being normal is never enough…

Hurray!!! Finally it’s over… well, more precisely, partially over. =)

Yesterday was one of the most hectic day for all the final years. Everyone was rushing to prepare to give their very best to impress the panels in 8 minutes. That was the most precious yet most suffocating 8 minutes…

I was lucky to be judged by a few good ones. No killing questions, no full-powered-blast comments, just took a few small “bullets”… but some of my friends was not that lucky. Anyway, just let bygones be bygones…

After watching a few friends’ presentation, I realized that there are still so many things that I yet to learn. So many advanced technologies have been available in the market that we’re unaware of.

Ya, most of you might say, “Of course Calvin, you’re a nerd!” or “Dun be so kiasu!“.

Well, I do agree with that partially. But after being in the engineering field for years, I somehow feel that the outside world has much more to offer, provided we take the initiative to go for them, taking step by step to approach them, appreciate them.

Somehow I suddenly realized that I have been wasting so much time in the past. Instead of doing the right thing, I just complaint that I have a boring life.

Life is never boring if we know what we want, and take action to achieve it. Human’s needs are endless, but how many are willing to sacrifice, to work hard to achieve them? Work delayed is work undone, so how many of us are actually aware of it whenever we give excuse such as “Can I do it later?”.

Well, I think all these depend on how much we weight our needs. If we don’t apply a certain “weighting” to our targets, we would never achieve them. Instead of advancing, we would just sit back and procrastinate.

My job is still undone, and I’m now looking forward to my FYP2, where the interesting things will begin…

Have been M.I.A again for quite sometimes… partially because of works, partially because of laziness taking sometime to relax.

Anyway, this is one of the most interesting month for me so far in this year.To cut short, pictures speak more than words.

[12-09-2009] Gathering with CKS (my primary school) mates class of 1998 at Pasta Zanmai, MV and dinner at Fong Lye, The Gardens

CKSGathering2009

Dun’s ask why Im the only male there… anyway it’s a nice gathering, hopefully next time more people will attend.

This was the 2nd time I was here, 1st time failed due to long queue… this time also the same, but we insisted to wait for the queue.

FongLye3

Food not too special, but not too bad either… I then realize the reason for the long queue – this is probably the so-called “cheapest” restaurant in The Gardens

End of enjoyment moment, tomorrow will be my “death penalty” – final year project 1 presentation… Just hope those panels won’t kill me with their words.

All of us come from different background, some further studies at oversea, some taking different courses, but we share a similarity (well at least most of us…). We once bear the same codename – DDE, the “almost extinct” group of students of Diploma of Electronic Engineering UTMKL.

After a few weeks of continuous struggle to complete my tasks, I finally have the chance to hang out with these guys.

Rumor has it that the university is going to stop offering diploma courses, thus I said we’re the “almost extinct”. Nonetheless, no matter where we are or what we do, the moment that we shared together shall never be forgotten…
