it is a hard days life

i just came back from my lecture today. ahhhhhhhhhhhh tired and still bleary.. of doing my proposal which should consist of my Chapter 1,2 and 3. I wish i could finish mine the soonest but by the looks of it, the process is so slow and i could hardly apply what i learn.

Anyway i hope that my decision of continuing my studies really for the better coz as for now i am having doubt if i am doing the right thing. Hopefully the first semester end and then goes the second semester and by a blink of an eyes i could finish my masters and start doing my phd ( well i hope). I remember the first time i continue my studies years ago , i was so asking the same question, so i guess its just a matter of giving myself some slacks and to be more focus on my work and my studies.

SELAMAT MUNAP.

How short life can be.

Yesterday when i came in the office i got a call from Carlina. I was told that one of our ex staff in Bintulu died of a heart attach. Memories of him come flashing through my head and it nearly bring me to tears.

Amir was a good and a very honourable guy, not only that hee is a very hardworking, honest, person but most of all he is a good friend. His death was a great lost to those people who knew him. I share a lot of good moments with him but the thing that i treasure the most is the table that he made especially for me. I requested him for a Japanese table ( well i was only hinting how i would love a Japanese table) and after a few days he called me up and showed me the table that he made especially for me( although i do have my saying on this heheh), but i felt so touch and that table was the only thing i took back from bintulu to KL when i got transfered here. A lot of people requested for that particular table but i refuse to give away it coz its was presented from a good Friend.

But what made me regret the most is, i didnt make an effort to meet with him the whole time i was in KL. I guess i'm too caught up with my work and things circling around me and now its too late. I tried to call the family but nobody answered maybe they are still grieving for him.

But, soon after that i called my sister to ask her if i could meet a person that i haven't talk for almost 5 years plus. I guess the death of my Amir made me realise how short and precious life is. I called up my mum to say hello too.. i need to do that more often from now on.

May his soul rest in peace and may the good lord keep him at peace amen.

Problem with me , .. i give too much.

Yesterday i had my first presentation for one of the subjects that i took. EDU 5813 Human Relation in Education. We were divided into groups and then eventually on the date proposed we are suppose to present our finding. FYI i was a bit late for the class so i listed my name under this group of 4 males ( 2 indian guy, 2 malay , one from Melaka that seems to walking with a stick and the other Sarawakian guy that halfway quit due to unforeseen circumstances.

BTW our topic was on School Culture and at first i was in vague with the topic.. this is new to me but i accept it with open heart . Soon we divided the topic in categories but after a few weeks nothing turns up because according to the 2 indian chaps in the group, they were unable to get any reference book because they do not have their matric cards.. so never mind, i borrowed some books gave it to them and then after a few weeks still nothing.

Then the next meeting there were no progress at all. so finally i got hold of a book and then give them the copies( well some of them did put some inputs too). What im pissed off is the Melaka chap always got his excuses every time we had a meeting and every time we had a discussion i ended up doing all the work. That is half of the story.. so finally i finish the presentation myself and spending my whole weekend doing it. After showing it to my lecturer and she agreed on it, and again dividing it into 4 sections hoping that everyone would understand and read on their respective topics.

I was suppose to do the introduction ( as it went well) and then when the Melacca guy presented he just foolishly read the whole thing and what i'm so pissed when it comes to the actual topic he just fast forward and skip the main topic. Finally the lecturer ask him about the problem and for him to show examples and he just stand there doing nothing ( as if it was not his topic), and then i end up answering for him ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh .

So, his presentation was cut off as our lecturer was not pleased with him presenting and now we have to redo our presentation. That's y sometimes i felt that its better that we do our own presentation on our finding so that if anyone to be blame or praise its us...... Hopefully the next presentation things would be okay.

ITS BEEN AGES.

I know it has been ages since my last update. Its not my life is too busy but there is no interesting things happening in my life lately. Although i had a promotion ( as what i have asked ) but still there is not worth mentioning.

Anyway i was surprise that , there was a few comments on my tag board especially on BOMBALAI. There was a few comments by Mr Joseph Chan ( Research Manager) and Mr Tony Ker's( Mill manager) son Richard and recently there was a site on Facebook dedicated on BOMBALAI exciting ha. I guess people from BAL estate still misses BAL so much and every time the name BAL comes out it always trigger their heart.

Anyway i will try to update this blog of mine as frequent as possible and hey i was thinking of writing a short book ( my memoirs) hehe as if my English is great hehe.

Im so busy now preparing thesis hoping that i can finish chapter 1, 2 and 3 within this 2 weeks. ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Oh ya i just got some bad new but shhhhhhhh its a secret.
