Activities!

Last week, my schedule was really packed. I went for L'oreal Brandstorm 2011 preliminary round presentation and unfortunately, my group didn't manage to qualify for semi-finals. Fail to reach next level wasn't a big deal as I enjoyed every moment I had with L'oreal Brandstorm. Good luck to other groups who managed to reach semi-finals and all the best to them. My member and I were determined to participate in the next edition L'oreal Brandstorm and we would give our best to it. Lacking of preparation would be the main factor why my team failed to proceed to the next round. Perhaps I will take part in some L'oreal business games later.
Next thing would be my participation in P&G Business Challenge 2011. I just registered myself last week and I was waiting for their call to bring some good news to me. I'm really interested in joining this challenge and I hope I will advance further in this challenge. Mucha suerte...
CNY 2011 is coming soon and I wish everyone will have a prosperous year ahead and have good health throughout the year.

Back to real business

Almost spent 2 weeks in uni for sem 6 and the first week of lecture classes were always filled with introduction of course syllabus and lab group division. For the past two weeks, my team mate and I were busy preparing PowerPoint slides for L'oreal Brandstorm 2011 and I just sent my team's slides to the Dan (the judge for this competition). Hopefully, my team would be shortlisted for preliminary round and get the opportunity to go to head office of L'oreal next Saturday for short presentation. There are upcoming assignments, lab reports and plant design project waiting for me to compete for the next 12 weeks and I hope I will give them a good shot.

It's time to let go

I just feel like CH's Passion has become my personal diary and now I would like to add another page to my diary. Someone (acts as fortune teller) tell me that no one in my family member really understand me as a person and  he says that I'm a kind of person who like to think so much till no one really understand what I need. At first, when I hear his words, I feel like really want to laugh and my response to him is "Really!!". Now I'm convinced that I'm believe in his words. I always imagine that I'm going to have my tertiary studies (undergrads) overseas (did not materialize), having my internship in the multinational company like Trump's Empire (still building castle in the air) and at last I'm able to secure a high-paying job (still a way to go). I believe that the time has come for me to let go all this kind of imagination and dreams. Back to reality by knowing that you can make a difference in your life if you believe in yourself. When one door closes, there will be always another window will open for us to explore and what you sow is what you reap. Hard works will be paid off well when our efforts don't go futile.To conclude, my family member still don't know the way of my thinking.....

Happy 2011 and Back to School

Happy New Year to everyone. Arrived at UPM college around 2pm and it took almost 4 hours to clean up my room. Really tired and exhausted. During sem break, I managed to finish watching Glee season 2 and Desperate Housewives season 7 till episode 10 but didn't have time to start watching Big Bang Theory (BBT). The second half of 2011, I will carry out my internship in Hexza for 2 months and I'm really looking forward to work as chemical engineer trainee in the company. Tomorrow, I will attend my first lecture class at 8am. All the best in 2011....

NACES 2010: Evidence to Success

Early December, I went for NACES 2010 and I managed to win some prizes. I won first place for Technical Essay Writing Competition and third place for Technical PowerPoint Presentation with fellow team mates (Daniel, Weewee and Szeleng). More happy news is UPM was announced as the best univesity in NACES 2010 because we managed to grab top three prizes.Here are the some reports on NACES 2010 made by UPM internal affairs:

Back to November

   Finally the gruesome exams were over and I was planning to take some time to relax myself at home before going back to uni on 1st of December to attend Naces 2010. Naces 2010 can be considered as an annual grand event for all chemical engineering students in public and private unis. This time, I was given the opportunity to participate in essay writing competition and technical power point presentation. I was greedy enough to accept the offers and I must admit that I was struggling to divide my time and focus on both competitions. I am hoping that there will be good outing for us in this Naces. 
                     
   Glad to be able to watch Asian Games report daily on tv but I'm really disappointed at badminton players the most. They can make us proud by grabbing the gold medals for individual event and I will put the blame on BAM for the team competition failure. The back-up players of our country always fail to give good performance in crucial stage and this indicate that our country will not have good players for the coming decade. Personally, I don't know why our players like Koo/Tan and Lee can't handle the pressure of playing in the rubber game. They are easily making the silly mistakes and didn't give a good fight to their oppenents. Their coach always make excuse for their under-performed and they never brave enough to admit that our players are still not good enough. Very disappointing and I wish our badminton players can emulate Nicol DAvid success and she did lose in several matches but she always make quick recovery by winning the next tournament. I'm not saying that our players must win all the tournaments they participate in but at least they will try not to lose to the same opponents easily.

  Coming up next....report on course trip and tv shows.........

Mucha suerte

Tengo el examen viene esta semana. Deseo a responder a la pregunta asi. Deseo que el examen no es muy dicifil. Coming home last week to do revisions and there is no way you can fully concentrate on your studies. There is no way you can fully focus on studies as you did for SPM and STPM examinations. I totally agree with this statement. Hopefully the cming final examination would not be difficult to answer. Good luck.
