gadget upgrade

Bought a Nokia C7 yesterday with the money i earned from work. This is my first smartphone.


So far i am quite happy with it except for the camera. It will be a lot better if it has auto-focus. Picture quality will also be quite bad if the object is closer than 50cm.

Well, hope this phone will not bring me any problem and will last for the next 4-5 years.

For full spec of this phone, check out

reunion

Just came back from a reunion for Standard 6 (2004) SK Taman Bukit Maluri at Italiannese, 1 Utama. It is great meeting back people who i had not seen since standard 6 and also meeting back friends i had not seen for quite some time. Some people really change a lot!

Thank you Yew Weng for organising it.

  • Pattaya trip is not worth it unless you like beaches but if wanna do parasailing, no choice

end of 1st sem

I'd officially ended my first semester in INTI IU! Really can't believe it... 6 months had passed just like that. I still remember the first day of class on 17 May 2010. Within this 6 months period, i had met so many new people from all over the country with so many different characters. I also learned so many new things. Learning is fun, exam isn't. Will be having 1 and a half month sem break now. Starting my 2nd sem somewhere in January.

Since, i had spent 6 months in Nilai, i know the place quite well now. Gonna tell you the good and bad about Nilai or INTI IU.

Good
  • Great environment. Many trees, lesser air pollution and no skyscraper.
  • Many types of restaurant nearby INTI (from Chinese to Indonesian to African)
  • Very big campus
  • Absolute FREEDOM!!! (no parents to stop you) This is when discipline plays a big part.
Bad
  • NO CINEMA!!! Nearest one in Seremban =(
  • No shopping center (Giant isn't counted)
  • Slow internet
  • Main communication language among student is Chinese

Cybercafe

There is a new Cybercafe in Nilai! Currently, around INTI there are about 3 cybercafes which all of them suck! Recently, a new cc had been open. It is the nicest and also the most expensive cc among all. RM3 for an hour during the night and 2.50 an hour in the morning till evening. WTH!?

Their PC. Using i3 processor, gaming keyboard and razer mouse.

First time i see a cc using such and expensive mouse and mouse pad. I think razer sponsor them.

Non member zone

Member room! With bigger screen and more comfortable seats.


YAY!!! My 100th post... after 2 years... that is slow...

GNS project

For the pass few months we had been busy discussing and planning our General Studies' Project. There were so many changes and plans. Finally, today is the day of our project. We are suppose to visit an indigenous people (orang asli) settlement and learn their culture while mingling with them. It was a great experience as it is very rare for us to actually meet orang asli.

We went to a settlement in Labu, Negeri Sembilan and their settlement is located very deep inside the oil palm plantations. A group of 5 friends and I reached there first as there are some problems with the bus not being able to enter the tunnel and i was in an Unser. Therefore, we it wasn't a problem for us.

It was quite awkward at first as we don not know what to do since we were the first to arrive. At least we got to eat first xP. About 15 minutes later, the others arrived. The orang asli's are also getting starting to come as we group in their church. There were lots of children and everyone is playing with them cause they find them fun and adorable. They were quite shy at first but later they became playful. Some of them was even surrounded by children.

After eating, the Penghulu (i think) gave us a brief overview of the orang asli and their lifestyle. Then we got to see orang asli 3 traditional dances. They all look very similar except for the hand movement. It is very easy and repetitive, therefore, it is easy to learn and later some of us started joining them. Then we went to the "kitchen" to cook together. They
taught us how to cut the banana plant's heart and we tried some very bitter vegetable.

Curry chicken... honestly, the curry is quite tasteless

Banana heart which was used to cook with the bitter vegetable. The heart tasted not bad though.

After lunch, they taught us how to fold tali dendan (i am not sure is it dendan or dandan) from daun palas. At first it was confusing but after you get the hang of it then it is fun and easy.




My tiara

Finally, we had group photo (will be uploaded in fb soon) and some giving ceremony. It was a great experience to know a little bit more about the orang asli. I am having another camp with the orang asli in November but this time they are not children but teens.

FIFA 11


I'd been waiting for this game since i don't know when and i finally got it! I'd been playing FIFA's game since PS 1.

FIFA 11 is a must get for all FIFA's fans. The gameplay and graphic are getting more realistic until we can tackle our own teammate. Few new features had been added to the game. Just go to any game website and they all give FIFA 11 a good review. Thumbs up! Good job EA! I would love to know what new features could they add in FIFA 12. Gotta wait 1 year for that.

internet speed at hostel room

Here is a screenshot of regular inti hostel residents' internet speed...

As you can see 0.14mb/s = 140kb/s is extremely slow... a lot of students are always complaining and i really hope the management will upgrade our internet speed to at least 512kb/s for free. We can't survive with this internet speed in this century.

I still have no plans of what to do yet but there is one thing for sure is i gotta complete at least 3 assignments during that two weeks as the due date is after the holidays.

I just got the news second semester will have two intakes one in january and one in november. I am planning to go for the one in november but must pass all subjects.

icsj 2nd sem

My Inti Subang friends will be starting their 2nd sem tomorrow after 3 weeks of sem break. Well, the A1 class timetable is horrible especially for the IT students. Every Monday and Tuesday they will have around 5 hours of free time between classes. Pity them... if i am still in icsj i don know how am i going to survive this for about 5 months. Inti failed...

Wishing all my Subang friends ALL THE BEST & GOOD LUCK in their sem 2!

I'm waiting for this week to end then i will have 4 days holidays, 3 days class and then 2 weeks holidays again!!!

Learning everything for the pass 5 years all over again isn't fun. I hope i won't be seeing this subject anymore. Need to score at least 29/100 to pass the subject. I think i can make it. Wish me luck!

FIFA 2010

The world cup is almost coming to an end. Its been a really epic and awesome world cup. Both teams that were in the final in 2006 France and Italy exited in the group stages. Almost all the big teams did not really performed well at first.

Now it is down to the final between Netherlands and Spain! It is a dream final for me as both of them are my top two favourite team. So, i don't really mind which team will win. However, i think Spain is going to win as they are a better team. Both of them are have never won the world cup before. At least this year we will have a new team winning the world cup.

vs




So who is it gonna be? Gotta wait till
12 July 2010, 2.30am

May the best team win! - English
Moge de beste winnen! - Dutch
Que el mejor equipo a ganar! - Spanish

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

And the winner for FIFA World Cup 2010 is... SPAIN!!!

They won 1-0 at extra time. Andres Iniesta scored the winning goal.

6 weeks

Today is exactly the same amount of days i spent as an icsj student. How time flies. If i was still in icsj i will be having my test 2 and assignment 2 already. Currently i am having my test 1 and assignment 1.

Spending 6 weeks in inti iu, i had adapted to campus life and made new friends. Actually, i love the uni and enjoy campus life. The only thing i don like about this uni is the location. Why nilai??? The nearest entertainment spot is in seremban. They don't even have a cinema here! However, the uni is a very happening place. They have events in campus every week or else students will be bored to death.

The only thing i miss about subang are my friends. Especially the one i am close with. For some reason i feel closer with my subang companions then my friends here (sorry nilai friends). Maybe it is due to the main language we speak. Well, i hope they will do their degree here.

Quiz: What Does Your Birth Date Mean For Your Love Life?




You'll Have 4 True Loves



For you, love is a natural progression from friendship. You are almost always friends first.

In love, you are loyal, steady, and honest. You are not a cheater or even much of a flirt.

You are likely to stay friends with your ex... and open to rekindling something in the future.



Number of Times You'll Have Your Heart Broken: 1



You are most compatible with people born on the 6th, 15th, and 24th of the month.

Stress Test


My Stress
 
Functional Management
38
Emotional Management
34
Disengagement
15
Internalization
48
 
To deal with a stressful situation or event you will mostly not put aside other activities and do not tend to focus all your energy on the stressor, however when the situation calls for it you are often able to show restraint and patience in waiting for the correct time to act. You mostly do not act prematurely. You will often not focus strongly on what is distressing or upseting you, and you do not tend to vent your emotionals and feelings at all. You will almost never seperate yourself from a stressful situation and will not reduce your efforts to deal with the stressor at all, even in very stressful situations. You will often turn to your religion or philosophy when life becomes stressful. This provides you with a feeling of wellbeing and support that can help you to overcome stress.

can i call myself lucky?

INTI IU (previously known as INTI UC) campus is more than 10 years old. So it can be consider kindda "old"....

I'd spent 3 weeks there and a lot of things had been upgraded in that 3 weeks time.

Here are the lists:
  • INTI University College status had been upgraded to INTI International University. Therefore, it is now officially a university. In Malaysia there are less than 30 private universities and now INTI is one of them. This is something to be proud of.
  • The cafeteria had undergo a full renovation and just opened recently. Everything in it is new and few days ago, two new LCD tvs had been installed into the cafeteria (i think they bought it for fifa).
  • The lecture theater had been renovated to make it look nicer and high class.
  • A few more things are being upgraded...
It is cool that the May intake students are the first batch of new students that can enjoy the new facilities and status.

I hope the internet service will be upgraded as the current internet speed suck. Icsj internet is faster. Thats about it... More updates soon

inti uc VS icsj

lets compare and contrast these two campuses in different aspect...

Campus (building)
It is very obvious that inti uc is a lot bigger and greener.


Library
Since the campus is bigger, the library here is also bigger. Icsj is only one floor, the library in inti uc is two floors. I think they have more books here.

Internet connection
Inti uc internet seems slower than icsj but inti uc does not block any websites like icsj.

International students
Inti uc seems to have more international students. You can find one almost everywhere you go. Even in my class of 30+ students have 5 international students.

Classmates
Somehow, i like my icsj classmates more (sorry inti uc classmates). Its nice being with them especially with a few friends i am close with even though i spent 6 weeks here. I haven't find any close friend here yet... hope to get at least one soon.

IT class
In icsj we have only 9 students with 1 girl. Here, we have 13 students with 3 girls. Inti is not really famous for IT. I am quite sure you can find more IT students in UCTI/APIIT.

Food
Inti uc have more choices of food. We can eat at the bakery, sidewalk cafe and soon cafeteria but the food here are quite pricey. Icsj food is a lot cheaper.

Clubs
Inti uc has more than 50 clubs and icsj has less than 30.

Lecturers
Well, some lecturers at inti uc are better, some i prefer icsj and some are about the same

genting highland


Its been a while since i last been to


ahhhh... miss the old times where i used to roam genting with my cousins and rode almost every ride.

This time i went for the outdoor theme park only. Since i don't have the whole day, i only go on certain rides. Tried the new pirate ship and was fortunate enough to get the most back sit as it was the best spot. I only went for exciting and adrenaline pumping rideS. It was my first time on cocksrew. I can't believe it, i actually miss out one of the best ride all these while. Damn! Where was my guts?
The ride was fun but the whole thing took less than 1 minute. I wanna go for flying coaster but as i said, due to lack of time i miss that. Nevermind, i will be back and hopefully, i have prepare myself mentally and physically for space shot.

I LOVE ROLLER COASTERS!!!

good news & bad news

Good news:
I got a full scholarship from Star. They will cover all my tuition fee which is around 62k including degree.

Bad news:
Sigh... after spending 6 weeks at INTI College Subang Jaya, I have to leave the place. It was my last day at that campus today. I never thought that I will leave so early. I had adapted to that place, make new friends and enjoyed myself. Now I got to go through everything all over again in INTI University College, Nilai. Class starts on 17 May 2010. Gotta redo the course all over again. Well, what can I do? Scholarship more important.
I will miss the city life and my college friends. *sob*

scholarship

Went for Star Education Fund interview at INTI Nilai yesterday. It was a really nice campus. Big, quite and fresh.

5 people were shortlisted for my faculty but only 3 came (including me). Well, its a good thing because the probability of getting it is very high.

laptop

Just came back from a surprise Birthday party for yc, zh and ryan.

Went to PC fair yesterday and finally i got my own laptop!!! I'd been waiting to buy one since December's PC fair but having SPM that time. My wait was worth it. Did not regret it because my laptop specs are the latest. If not, i will be using core 2 duo, ddr2 ram and a not so good graphic card. Instead, now i am using i5, 4gb ddr3 ram and ati 5470.

Bought an Asus A42Jr for 3k. Very good deal.

P.S: HAPPY BIRTHDAY CELINE!!!

2 weeks of college

Well, second week of college is coming to an end. Lets talk a little about my two weeks experience.

Initially, my class have about 70 over students. Now we are divided and remain around 40+ left. In some way it is better because it is easier for us to learn and for the lecturer to teach. Since i am the "class rep", i now have less names to remember. YAY!!!

College for now is still kindda free... not much work yet. Spend most of my free time in the library facebooking and reading some computer books... nothing else to do. Still following my friends to and from college. Hope can drive to college soon. Just to let you all know, i currently have 7 subjects. THATS A LOT! Thats about it la...

I was getting extremely anxious while waiting. It wasn't long until my turn. I was worried my results will disappoint me and then i got

May God bless his soul.

You prefer productive hobbies, like woodworking or knitting. -not true

Quiet and serious, you are well prepared for whatever life hands you.

You are conservative and down-to-earth. You hardly ever do anything crazy.



In love, you are loyal and honest. If you commit yourself to someone, then you're fully committed.

For you, love is something that happens naturally. And you don't need romantic gestures to feel loved.



At work, you remember details well and are happy to take on any responsibility.

You would make a great business executive, accountant, or lawyer. -not really



How you see yourself: Decisive, stable, and dependable



When other people don't get you, they see you as: Boring, conservative, and egotistical

job 2

Started my 2nd job today as a promoter at T-Joue Parkson 1 Utama today. My first day didn't went well as i wished it would be. My work starts at 10am. Unfortunately, there are some "problems" and only started work at 11.20am.

Honestly, i prefer working for Focus Point. It is more fun and less work even thought the working hour is long and pay is less. Anyway, thanks Alyf for introducing me this job.

Saturday, January 23, 2010




You Fall for the Guy or Girl Next Door Type



You think that people make love too complicated, and what you want in a partner happens to be pretty simple.

You're content with someone who's nice, attractive, honest, and normal. So how come that's so hard to find?



You are fairly traditional, and you value security in relationships more than most people. It's important for you to find someone loyal.

When you find the right person, you don't expect much from him or her. You're just happy to be together.


Monday, January 18, 2010

end of job

Wohoo! After 12 days straight, my 1st job finally came to an end. I was a sales assistant for Focus Point. It was an event which took place at 1 Utama old wing center court. Event started on 5 January till 17 January 10am-10pm. I started work on 6. For this 12 days, my routine had been the same. Barely had any time to do anything besides work. Standing for about 10 hours a day. Now my legs are used to it.

Wake up 7.30am, prepare for work, work for 12 hours, come back around 11pm, bath, sleep. Same routine the next day....

It was a really great experience, almost everyday i will learn something new. I learnt a lot about spectacles, lenses and sunglasses. Besides that, i also know to use the refractometer and lensmeter. Can consider myself 10% optometriest. Haha! Some how i feel like a stalker. Gotta follow a customer until they leave the place or else they will be taken by other staff. Don't wanna lose sale. Thank God i have Chee Meng with me or else i will be very lonely. We are the youngest person there and the one with the least experience.

My record:
Total sales ~ around 11-12k
Highest sales in a day ~ 2.5k
Highest sale for a item ~ rm800 (Prada sunglasses)

Tuesday, January 5, 2010

job

Went for job interview with Chee Meng in 1 Utama. Manage to get the job. Will start work tomorrow. Will be working from 10am-10pm for 12 days. RM5/hour. Wanna buy specs or sunglasses come look for me at old wing concourse. My first job! Thank God i manage to get a job.
