Well, my life has always been the extreme. Always damn hard and complex initially but gets a bit sweet towards the end. Question marks on your head? Well some examples to back my claimed….
Instance One – Poly Days
I chose a Pioneer course (Engineering Informatics) which was a combination of IT and Manufacturing units. It wasn’t exactly hard but kinda feels like a white mouse being tested under the test tube when the course coordinators are experimenting with the right mix of units for us students.
End Results:
Got my diploma with hell lots of good friends whom I cherish even til now or the day I die.
Instance two – NS BMTC
I was sent to the most “siong” (violent) units in Palau Tekong. The units was Mohawk Co. in school 2. People have been telling me that the NS then was slacked with many welfare and no abuses from higher rank pple. Well, that doesn’t happen in my company; I was treated with break camps with thunder flash thrown inside my tent during my outfield, I was abused by uniform changed routine at 3 am blah blah blah.
End results:
To be a tougher man~~~~
Instance three – NS Units
Just when I thought I am tougher, I was sent to 2SIR. Further abused and culture shock happened during that duration, I would described 2 SIR alpha to be a uni and Mohawk was just a kindergarden as a comparison. Hehe, inhumane acts was carried out to train us to be infantry and lotsa shit work to do even after outfield exercise.
End Results:
Through hardship, strong friendship bonds are forged.
Instance Four – University
Upon reaching Uni, I was duped into taking 2 of the siong units usually shunned by students as my elective units. Siong it is… hard it is…. Those were the days I really slog it out to get mediocre results. LoL. After graduating from my bach, a honors degree was offered to me which I took it up readily. Again, my backside is itchy, so instead of picking easy research units, I chose a research topic which nobody has done before (pioneer again… sighs) and a lot harder. I struggled to stay afloat and luckily with a good supervision Dr Wei Liu (Thanks for enduring all my lousy grammatical errors and essay); I managed to pull it through.
End Results:
With many smoke bombs and hardship, manage to make it!
Instance four – Work
After graduate, I applied for my PR. Initially I planned to apply it myself (Wanted to save a few pennies), however as time passed by, I discover that the process is too long. I cannot find a IT job fulltime without my PR. Thus I started working in my friend’s factory. 9 whole months in that factory; I am happy working there but the prospects are just isn’t there! I basically wasted 9 months with no work experience. After I got my PR, I was introduced to Woodside for contractor job. It was good money and the environment was good too. However the learning curve wasn’t really great. I was panicky about my future and quite depressed over it.
Currently, my contractor boss gives me a good opportunity to work full time in a big scale Engineering S/W provider firm. Of course, I am very happy but I feel unsecured to the new field that I will be exposed to when the firm confirmed my application.
Hehe. This is just some timeline of my life to share with my loyal viewers.

Season Transition
It’s the session transition of the year again. The transition from summer to autumn always never fails to inflict me with cough, flu and my worst nightmare…. SORE THROAT. You might be strange on why sore throat is my worst nightmare. Simple… with sore throat, I CANNOT EAT THE FOOD I LIKE! I am a human being who only lived for my unhealthy, oily and tasty food! I mean we work so hard, is it only for: 1) Luxury items? 2) Live comfortably? 3) Enjoy Life?. The answer is ALL. Luxury item to me is nice food, to live comfortably means good food and to enjoy life means to be able to eat whatever I want. Sounds like a glutton? Yeah I AM ONE! Anyway, took a MC for yesterday to stay home and recover. Seems to be effective as I am alive kicking and shouting at this current moment.
I also discover that my mum health has not really been good recently. I hope she be healthy always. Got a piece of advice to her from her son: “Think positively and you be healthy and HAPPY” Easy advice but how many people in the world can actually think positively always? I am lucky that I am quite positive thinker and takes everything is my strides no matter what happen.
Btw, I was playing WoW during my recovery stances yesterday when someone I know ask me a question which caught me dumbfounded: “You guys don’t like me is it? Why I always ask for instance, nobody respond?” Well, this question displays the level of morale we had in our guild recently. We had a guild conflict a few weeks back which caused people to leave. Although we had an officer meeting last Monday, I hope we were not too late to salvage our guild~ “IT ONLY A GAME, WHY SO SERIOUS?” Yeah I agree it’s only a game, but people I know through it, friendship forged in instance are real friendship too! Even though I got many offer to join some hardcore uber guild, but I still chose to stay on with my friends.
Okok, I am in office now. I guess I should get back to work. Do check my blog for updates even though I seldom update them! But HEY, whats fun is there if I everyday update and you guys expected my post to be there. Got more surprise element if I update every now and then, right? (Good excuse to be lazy)

A Rather sad week
UPDATES for Last WEEKEND.
Basically I got nothing much done last weekend. I drove Damien around Perth in search of a car and was happy to travel around sightseeing and looking at some of the super nice decor house around. After searching his car for sat and sun, he finally settled for a L3.0 Camry Conquest at 9k+. Feel happy for him that he got what he wanted. Wonder when then he will allow me to whack his engine~~ ahaha.
Wow has also been in trouble lately. The quarrels btw frenz really dampen my mood. The leaving of guild by one of my closed mates , Jeffrey, really make me feel sad. I have been with him ever since I start playing Wow. Of course, we share problems and happiness together which explains our bond. Sighz. I hope he will enjoy the game more now and still jio me for watever instance he wants~.
Been having some issue at home over INITIATIVENESS nowadays also, pple has been quite bo chap over house issue nowadays. I guess the allocation of the housework was not clear cut and thus need more refining.. Shall hold a house meeting to settle that so shouldn't be a problem. What can be more impt than returning to a happy home. I feel depressed and stressed this few days due to the abnormal atmosphere around my house which are supposed to be happy to returned to.
Anyway, I watched spidey 3 last night. Quite a good show, do catch it while you can.
