Birthdays Post =P

Damn.. so long no update.. too lazy perhaps HaHa

Anyway, just a recap of what happened the past few weeks. On the 18th October, went to Genting Highlands. Not to gamble but to go play in the theme park. I think it has been very long since the last time I went there. More than 10 years perhaps? I cannot even recall.. =p Anyway, could not recognized the place anymore. Was practically lost up there. =p

Had a good time at the park. Played many games. Was there from 1.30pm till night. Went there by bus from 1U and was scheduled to return at 8.30pm but DAMN, missed the bus in the evening. XD
Not my fault really.. hehe.. blame it on others.. =p

The initial plan was to spent the night there, but hotel rate is too expensive and so instead, got a cab back to KL. Cheaper I guess..

........................................................................

A few dedications coming up....

First of all.. erm 11 October is my uni friend Mr. Ho


Happy Birthday Mr. Ho XD


Yeah.. and I still remember I first got drunk in my life at your party back in 2006 Wahahaha.. Bad influence XD
HoHoHo.. =P

........................................................................

On the 20th October...


Happy Birthday to Ah Chan!


Ah Chan (name really sounds like Ah Chan - whatever that means =p) is my fellow college mate back in Sunway class of 2003/2004 when we both did our A-Levels. After that, we were both in Monash but was in different course. Mr Ah Chan is now an engineer just got himself a job 2 months back. His salary is higher than mine, which is why he still owe me either lunch or dinner or both. I owe him nothing =P

Hmm, what can I say? You have been a very good friend to me as I had to you =P.

In fact I think I am WAYYYYY BETTER! Muahahaha. Anyway, you are now starting your internship which also means you are completing your studies very soon (Here we have another engineer). Well, I wish you all the best in your future undertakings. Soon you will be working your a** off doing the same thing for the next 30 years or so - [Engineer's work].. LOL

BioMalaysia 2008

Another week has passed by..

Was quite a busy week. Company was involved in BioMalaysia 2008 Exhibition and so was at KLCC from Monday to Thursday.


Overall the event was quite successful. A lot of visitors came to our booth. Some were just curious passer-by while some wish to know more 'dig information' from us. Hehe. Anyway, it was quite an eye-opening event after the WCIT I had in May at the same place. =P

During the WCIT (World Congress on Information Technology), my company display the entire Oil Palm tree. And with that, we won the best booth design competition. This time, the focus was on Jatropha instead of Oil Palm. The only difference between WCIT and BioMalaysia is that the former was more on Information Technology while this time its on Biotechnology. And so, other exhibitors were mostly from research institution, universities as well as other private biotech companies.

As the focus is more on Jatropha, it was decided that life Jatropha plants be displayed. The design of the booth was quite cool. A total of 5 plants were there with 4 of it hanging above. Show you all some pics. =P

Yeah we won the best booth design this time too. =)

One good thing about having exhibition like this is that I do not have to go all the way to Sepang to work HeHe. I get to go to KL which is so much closer and also get to claim for all the expenses like lunch, dinner, etc.. =P

And so I quickly take the opportunity to eat for free... =p But I am also a very good employee. I will try my best to help company save cost and so only manage to eat at the food court =/

See, sooo economical... =P

Second day... some Pattaya Fried Rice with Salad... =/

So that is more or less what I ate for the remaining days except the days where I get to attend the networking cocktail and also the official dinner HaHaHA. =P

Taken using my phone - Blur Blur = ='' Food there wasn't so good though.. =/

So what are my contributions for this time event? During the WCIT, I was new that time and so did nothing much except for preparing exhibits and taking care of booth. However, this time around, I get to do more things HeHe.

Yeah, get to prepare the information posters for the booth. Wahaha. Here are the posters I help to prepare. =P




Yeah... all my hard work =). During break time get to walk around and take beautiful pictures of the park. So nice HeHe. I actually kind off like city life HaHa....


Yeah..

And also, during the event, only small ikan manage to come over to see see LOL. Great. XD
And also manage to lose my spec this time. Great Great Great = =''
Need to get new specs jor... =/
.................................................................................................

And so, did not work on Friday. Break. HeHe...
During the weekend as usual, did went clubbing but only on Friday night this time. Become a good boy already. =) That night met up with some friends there.. ordered quite a lot of beer, drink till so high.. HeHe.. but still okay... never get drunk. =)

On Saturday went for dinner with my former uni mates. The Princess had a business training in KL and so manage to meet up with her and Mr. S. HaHa. Had dinner at Mr. S restaurant. So nice the food. Thanks Mr. S =) My treat next time. LOL

Ordered by Mr. S

Vegetables - Lotus root?

Yam?

Fish. This is tasty.

And lastly Prawn.

I ate 3 bowls of rice that night. Great. Too hungry already. =)

After dinner thought of going clubbing again. But no 'Kaki' that time so only manage to drink some beer and see people play MahJiang at friend's place HeHe. Went back home that night.

Sunday did nothing at all. Slept whole day. LOL

And thats about it for my entire week. Heard that another exhibition will be coming up at the same place soon. Aih, need to work hard again HaHaHa.

Ok la, thats it for now....

Bye Bye.. =)

Happy Time

Hi there..

Its Monday morning now.. should be going to bed soon, but need to finish off some stuff first..

Last week was fun as I only needed to work three days. Two days was Raya day and so it is holiday. So what else would I do? Of course go club again laaaa... Hehe..

Went to watch movie on Tuesday night. Watch the 'Painted Skin', a Chinese movie based on a novel. Kind of a love story. I think it is ok, quite entertaining for me la.. Haha.. Spent the night at friend's house that day.

Actually only went clubbing on Wednesday night. Stay there until 2 o'clock am. Got a sms from a friend. Haih, something happen and so decided to leave early. Need to accompany this friend to drink.. yeah.. drinking session.. sad drinking session.. =/ Anyway, luckily nothing major happen. Everything is fine now.. =) Spent that night at friend's house again.

The next day Thursday did nothing much..cause need to work on Friday. Only watch people play MahJiang. Boring. ><'' After supper went back home.

Friday at work was really boring, nothing much to do. Should not have come in the first place = ='' Friday night again go to clubbing. This time the group decided to open bottle 'Black Label'. Not many people at club that night. Still ok but not really fun. Haha. Decided to leave earlier and go back home. Got a sms from another friend that night. Omg, another crisis.

EMO CRISIS

So invited the friend over to drink again. Again, drinking session at the same house. Mix and Drink. Mix and Drink. Better than in club, here we have endless supply of ~!@#$%!! Got quite drunk that night. Played stupid game. Damn stupid. Really stupid game. You Bunch OF Crazy People. =D Spent the night at friend's house again.. =P

Erm.. to my emo friend earlier. Tell you something.. =) Don't always so emo laaaaa ok =). I see people emo later I also emo. Haha. Anyway, life is full of surprises. Just be patience ok? Always see the bright side. =) Find me if you need d******* partner.. wakakakaka (joking joking)
Yam Cha also can laaaa.. =P
I think it is time we do some catching up Hehe..
Cheers! =)

..........................................................................................

Saturday. Did nothing much. Lepak whole day. Watch people play MahJiang again. Night time, pick up a friend from Pudu station and invited many people to come over to the same house again. Again we all have drinking session. SHIT!! Haha. Again we played the Damn Really Stupid Game. Nothing to say liao. It seems that the game is very 'Disambut Hangat'.

YOU BUNCH OF REALLY CRAZY PEOPLE.

Now we also have a name for the house already.

BU Club

cause located in B***** U****. =) The official name for the organizing committee is

Q****'* W****.

Ok. Enough said. =P Memalukan. Got drunk again. These days I found out that I really like to drink. Sei lo. = =''
So got drunk again but better than the night before. Spent the night at the same place.

Sunday. Also did nothing much. I am not active in daytime. So don't want to move much. =P Ate late lunch at McD. Ate late dinner somehwhere.

Now back to home already. Missing those times. The last few days was fun. It is so nice to hang out with right people and having good times together. Hehe.

But now, it is back to normal mode. Need to work hard this week. Wait till it is weekends again. Hahahaha..

Ok la, need to sleep now. Tired. =)

Good Night people......

Graduation

......................................................................

......................................................................

I finally graduated woo hoo~~!!
Hehehe...

The convocation was held last Saturday at Sunway Lagoon Resort Hotel. Ceremony was to start at 3pm but got there at 1pm for registration and collecting the gown. =p
After months of waiting (10 months approximately), finally, I get to wear the graduation gown and receive the scroll after '3 hard years' of skipping lectures, snoozing in class and plagiarizing assignments. =p

Hehe.. Anyway, it was a good day that day. Got to meet up with uni mates although it is kind of rush. Did not manage to take pictures with everyone. =/

Anyway, here are just some of the pictures...

Sunday Noon...

I am in Starbucks Mid Valley now...

Am doing my work.. and also blogging now .. Hehehe

Just want to say..

Happy 51st Merdeka Malaysia! =P

Merdeka! Merdeka Merdeka!!!

Morning Post =|

Hi, Good Morning.. =p

I am now blogging from my office. Got up real early this morning to send a friend to airport. Will only be seeing each other again next year. (Counting Down Now) =D Hopefully, all of us in the gang will gather again and CLUB CLUB CLUB!!
as usual... Hehe...

Come to think about it, I have been sending a lot of friends to airport every time they leave. From secondary school friends till college and university. And of course, it will be a little emotional each time Hehe. But I guess it is normal. People come and go. As time goes by, one will meet more new friends along the way.

Sometimes I do envy those that are leaving to other places. I always think when it will be my turn. Not that I do not like it here, it is just the longing to go to other places, to see different way of life, to meet interesting people of different cultures. Come on, the world is so big, I have to see it.. And I better do it when I am still 'young' Haha..

And YES! I envy envy envy those who gets to travel. Hehe..

Time passes very quickly when you are doing something routine. eg. working? XD

Haha.. Working life is good when you can learn a lot.. Besides giving you insights and knowledge, it helps to shape your perspective. I have to say that I have learn quite a lot since I started working. My direct superior is a very nice person. Not too much work given to me but guidance and plenty of 'spaces' for me to explore and learn myself. =p Thank You.

But I guess experience is important too and one can only gain that through time.

And so, it has been 4 months since I started. It will be 2 more months before the assessment and confirmation. =p

------------------------------------------------------------------------

On current event, the Beijing Olympic 2008 has just concluded. As expected, nothing less from China. The opening and closing ceremony was wonderful Haha.. Almost perfect. I don't really watch the sports. More interested in the ceremonies, medal count, stuff like that... Haha...

Anyway, overall, I thought that the Game was a good opportunity for China to showcase herself to the world. And she did =)

China is definitely in my travel list Hahaha...
I MUST learn Mandarin =/

And also, my graduation is coming very soon. =)
6th of September 2008 ^^
Happy Happy Happy
Time to meet up with my Uni Friends, do some catching up.=D

If you want to come, I want flowers and teddys.. Hehehehehe...

And also not to forget, might be going for some short trip maybe in the year end. Some places near, like Thailand. =p But have to save money first luu.. =p Still in the planning stage.

Hmm, I think that is all for now, as I half blog and half working and also chatting, it is already 10am now. My friend who left this morning will be reaching very soon. Hainan only ma.. so close.. Haha..

Till then.. =) Good Day and Good Bye..

Hi there... it has been 1 week now since I started working...

Nothing much to do for now as the place is still new.. this division is still new...

Anyway will be expecting more people to be based in this station... the more the merrier hehe..

As for now, its all about learning the basic stuff about the plants... Jatropha curcas.. =p

Work Work Work.. preparing for some big event... LOL

Here are some pictures...

Tired

Phew.. today was one long hectic day...

Got out from the house at 8am to have breakfast with my mother... followed her to the pasar, bought stuff and bla bla bla... went to the bank to reactivate my account. Apparently, my account was being neglected too long and became inactive thus the ATM service is not usable.

Reach home at 11 something... decided to go out again by my own to check out my working location in Sepang. Wanted to find out a few days ago but keep procrastinating. =p Have to report to work on Friday and this is what forced me to go look for it hehe...

Spend two hours driving on the road around Sepang area... Argghh, damn ulu place.... even with the address is useless!! The roads there are all kelam kabut wan la, you wont be able to tell what road your are on... = = End up in places like Salak Tinggi la, halfway to Banting la, all sorts of kampung(s) laa and so on and on.... really kenot tahan.. wasted so much petrol.. haih..

In the end, suddenly spotted my company's logo and end up in a plantation. Manage to ask some workers there and luckily, one of them lead me to the actual place. Well, the place is just located next to the Sepang F1 circuit. OMG

Passed by it a few times earlier but still missed it... but at least the place is nice. The main building is quite futuristic in design hehehe and the place is quite new I think... but forget to take picture.. later lerr.. =p

And so it is all settled, I do not need to fear that I might be late on my first day working because I sesat haha. The only thing left to consider is should I shift there to save on petrol and toll $$$? Maybe I should. =p

Just to show where I went.... =p Some place I even ended up there twice.. hehe

Reach home around 2pm and off I went again to KL to buy some computer stuff. Hang around in Times Square and Low Yat before going back in the evening jam.

And all this was done although I did not sleep the night before wahahaha... so that makes me very very very tired and thus after dinner... went straight to bed.

KL in the evening... taken from Times Square

Bukit Bintang area... jam jam jam.... =p

BRI@N =p

Work II

I think I am becoming nocturnal? Arghhh, I am starting work soon and yet I am still staying up at night..

Can't seem to get back to the 'normal' way of life. I suppose this is the result of being too long in the 'holiday' mood hehe.. Sleeping at odd times during the day, staying up whole night, guess these will all change by next week....

Up at 6am and to bed before 12am... like during school times... tsk tsk.. =p

The Blog Readibility Test

Ermm, I wonder what is the meaning of this. Is this a good thing or bad? It says in the site...

"What Level Of Education Is Required To Understand Your Blog?"

Er, I think it is a good thing because it practically means that those from junior high and above can understand what I write here? =p I guess only primary school kids will have some difficulty perhaps? Hehe, anyway, it was never my intention to write in such a way to make it understandable for them.. Er, not that I do not want them to read but aiyaaaa, at least give me a college level laaa..=p

I am Monash material okayyy... mana boleh write at 'junior high' level wan!! Hehe.. Got this while reading my friends bloggie. Well, some of them are at the 'college' level while most of the others are at 'high school' level. Hmm, makes me wonder how the site actually determines this. Do they scan through all the words found in your blog? Aiya, if it is like that thus it means my vocabulary is not that good la.. limited to junior high only.. sweat..
= =''

Anyway, don't care much, just do it for fun only..

But I do compare my blog to one's blog. Mr. Lim Kit Siang's blog. You know, the politician from DAP?
His url is http://blog.limkitsiang.com/

And this is what I get...

Wow...

Geng ar....!

Work

Hi there,

This blog of mine has been abandoned real long.. what to do, nothing to post ma.. =p
Had been attending interviews for the past few months, can't really seem to get a good offer..
Most of the jobs are related to sales sales sales and sales AND marketing!!
= =''
Other than that, was relaxing at home.. =)

Grrr!!! Why is it so hard for science grads here to get a 'related to what I study in uni' kind of employment (with decent pay also la =p). Hmm, tried applying using job sites like Jobstreet.com. Found a few suitable positions but got over 150 to 200 applications for each. Competition is so ridiculously high! Really SO not enough jobs in Malaysia meh? Until need to be like that? hehehe...

..... to those that plan to major in biotech/biomedical field in the future, maybe I should really advice you all to think again.. =p Only do so if you are really really really interested in doing research and plan to go all the way till PhD level.

If you are not, just go be an accountant or engineer hehe. Jobs are widely available for these two fields. Pay are much better too. XD

Anyway, was lucky enough to land myself an 'acceptable' position. Apparently, I accidentally googled this company up. The Asiatic Center for Genome Technology. It is the biotechnology division of Asiatic Development Berhad, a plantation company which is also a subsidiary of the Genting Group. The company is involve in genomic science and is focusing on the application of genome technology for crop improvement (namely rubber and oil palm) bla bla bla bla =p. Ask me to define what is Genomic? I don't know! I forgot! LOL

Anyway I was offer the position of Scientific Executive there. I am not too sure of the job responsibilities yet as I will only start on the 2nd May. Anyway, the only 'setback' is that I will be based in Sepang near KLIA. Will be involve in the R&D of Jatropha curcas, a plant use in the production of biofuel. Hehe, sounds interesting eh. =) The pay is also so so la, above average pay maybe because I need to work in Sepang. Ya, quite ulu I know..

Besides that, got another offer from 1st Base Laboratory as a Lab Officer. I declined that offer. =p

So, will have a few more days of holiday before I begin working. I tell you all I am more than ready now.
Work Hard!
Learn More!
Earn More! =p

Wish me luck ya! =D

Went to Monash today to fill in the paperwork for the student withdrawal application. Went into the library but don't recognize any faces. Can feel the 'emptiness' in there hahaha. Like a lone ranger. Anyway, will get to claim back the deposits paid earlier during the study, quite a huge amount of money there hehe.

Bumped into a few former coursemates later. Meet up with Randy as well and had lunch at Wendy's. A new fast-food restaurant in pyramid opposite McD.

Not bad.




Beef Burger?


Mine... Fish Burger?

Till then.. later..

The Recipe For BRI@N

The Recipe For BRI@N

3 parts Warmth 2 parts Intellect 1 part Fearlessness Splash of Cleverness Serve over ice

What's the Recipe for Your Personality?

Jan 08 - Feb 08 Part 4

Hehe, its the beginning of March now.. general election is coming soon.. in 2 more days. Too bad I can't vote this time. I did my voter's registration a little too late which was in early January. =/ Well, got to wait for the next one. To those that are voting out there this coming election, remember, VOTE WISELY! hehehe...

And so nothing much happen in February except for my birthday on the 13th hehe. Got two cakes this year. ^^

The first cake I got was on the 10th. =p Went to eat steamboat again for dinner that day. This time, tried a different place in Sunway Mentari. Don't know the name in English so I will just post the picture. =p

Hehe, I really love steamboat =p ~~~~

The restaurant is located opposite Yuen Buffet Steamboat, across the main road. Personally, I think this place is much better than Yuen Buffet. Maybe because its kind of new? Anyway, as you can see the shop is more nicely decorated and clean. However, most of the patrons will have to sit outside in the open air since the inside can only accommodate a few tables. And that means no air-con hehe. But for people like me, that won't be a problem lee...

After the dinner, went to pyramid and played bowling. =p Played two games. Main baling only hehehe.. But the score can consider not bad la for a noob like me. Played with Jes and Fish. Hehe.. I even lost to Jes XD Later, Mr. Leo and smaller Fish come and join and that Leo showed off his skills. ==''

After the game, tried archery. Got two free tickets and got to shoot a few arrows. Hehe not bad not bad, quite accurate. =p Next stop, Yip Kee Noodles drink soyabean..

And then cut the cake at Leo's place hehehe... Thanks guys! =p

Got present oso...=p

lampu oo lampu la la la~~~ =p


On the 13th Feb, my actual birthday day, had dinner at a restaurant near my house together with all family members. Its also our 'Lou Sang' dinner that night for CNY. =p
