Graduation

I'm a grad mother truckers!

After my short trip to Miri I set off to my next point of pilgrimage: Perth. This one was for my graduation. Looking back from my noob years as a fresh blood foundation kid to the day I finally got up that graduation stage, I've seriously come a long way.
What's next? As few more comrades fight on to fight the war, I'll be stepping out of it gracefully to wage another war that will ultimately decide the fate of the Motherland. I'll be waiting for you guys at the other side and will continue to believe that we can still revolutionize the country by hook or by crook.
I'd like to personally send my infinite thanks to Boss and Big Boss who were there for financial and moral support. My fellow comrades who were there with me during our fights on or off screen. My fellow kamchengz from 5008, 3666, Senadin, Vickery and the Lawson Street gangs who shared the same sheet different day with me. My S.O.B. familias especially the school of Management and Marketing. And finally Creator for providing spiritual solace and all the people I've mentioned earlier. *bows down* "domo arigato".

Still Kampua 4 Life

I'm still one tough son of a gun to be brought down

Okay so I've not updated K4L for over a month, I apologise to no one. Well a lot of things been going on during that gap and only now I managed to find a time to sit down and blog again. Here's my chronology:

Chapter 1: Death of a Comrade
My 4520 died in the line of duty during my critical moments of last assignments and finals. It was one fatal shopping trip when I was stocking up for winter and finals. 4520 fell out of the fattened-up and consequentially-unzipped bag. But the case of Mothers that fell out as well broke its fall and 4520 survived the fall with some flesh plastic wound. However upon my return home I noticed my bag was leaking; one of the Mother got a puny crack that spurted some lethal taurine onto 4520. Mother's 987Kj of energy may cause numb nuts and stoned-like effects to an average Asian, but it sent 4520 to Motherland for good.

Chapter 2: Last Tango, Perth
A series of unfortunate events began to unfold ever since, reminiscent of Summer 2008. Like what Jackie Chan said in the movie Little Big Soldier "You have to step on shit first, then good things will happen". True that, and I persisted. God, comrades and trance helped me out during my tough times until the end of my final finals. Some zombie-killing in-between also helped vent out some stress and rage I accumulated (cheers to all fellow Survivors and Infected alike).

Chapter 3: Welcome Back to the Sea
Thanks to Bowie for coming up with the title above as the first supportive comment 5 minutes after I broke up that 4°C night. 1 minute later me and the rest of the slightly-finals-free peeps in Perth enjoyed a blardy good Germany vs England match. Yup I'm back in the sea again and this time will remain single till I remember how it felt to be authentically in-love again. I'm happy to see fellow brothers who share the same predicament have moved on. M and V et al., remember my phrases I uttered with epic coolness in the winter "Find a wife, not a girlfriend. Let your successes attract the right ones, not you working hard to appease the wrong ones."

Chapter 4: ¡Viva la Gloria!
After weeks sobering up and enjoying my last moments in Perth the results were out that 0°C midnight. I found Gloria, and dude is she hot. She's my official degree graduate acknowledgment. I celebrated with a $30 (RM90) haircut and hours of Ganjaguru till the batteries were out. I flew back to Malaysia early July, back to the familiar hot and humid Sibu.

Chapter 5: For the Empire
I got an accidental faux hawk going on. If you diss my elongated sideburns that will compliment the faux, STFU and go trim your bush. Apart from that I've been busy traveling around learning the art of business to better myself for the future, hence the lack of time to do much update or play Facebook. And yes, wo xianzai zai xue zhongwen :)

Well that's all I could remember and summarise for now. I'll try to be back with the regular programs soon. Cheer cheers.

Finals Semester 1, 2010

It All Comes to This...
As K4L tradition dictates I shall post a "wish you all the best for finals" post, and here it is. This will be my last such post as it will be my final finals for the degree program. My last finals ain't going easy on me as well with double papers back-to-back on the same day as shown below:

I have already met Marketing of Services 311 last week as a take home exam. Now my second match will be with Retail Marketing and Distribution 311 at 3:30pm-5:40pm followed by the third and last match with Event Management 304 at 6:45pm - 8:55pm. With little time to recuperate, eat, empty bowels etc., add in the cold winter and the pain of sitting for hours and writing frantically till hand cramps, my final finals will be a harsh one.

All the best to all my comrades no matter where you are or what course you are taking. These dark hours shall be the glorious moments of our life. See you all at the end of it all! VICTORY IS OURS!

Final Finals

The Feeling of Being in Your Final Semester is... Unexplainable
.
I'm done with my first paper which was a take home exam last Tuesday. It was no easy task, considering a lot of things happened (such as the passing of HAM 4520 which I had no time to blog about, yeah my laptop's dead R.I.P. HAM 4520 2007 - 3/6/2010).
.
And lately I've been hogging the labs to study from midnight till morning. I admit, I'm addicted to going to labs every midnight and it's not because of the School of Marketing female students there (none available after all done with their assessments). Only a handful of students seated a few computers apart left to accompany me, besides the chips, cookies, healthy carbonated and caffeinated drinks. It's the sheer silence and "look-everyone-else-is-studying" that gives the placebo effect that pressures me to abandon Facebook and study till morn.
.
This addiction literally changed my biological clock. My body's so used to caffeine I'm literally pissing caffeine during toilet breaks. And I still get enough sleep from noon to dusk to even play Guitar Hero with mates from 7pm-9pm before the whole cycle starts again. It's 4am now I guess I should head back to writing notes and revising theories for my remaining 8 hours. My last 2 papers would be hard as they are back-to-back from 3pm-9pm non-stop on Friday 18th, in the same venue in this cold winter. (To my comrades whom I promised KFC after finals, I'm still on). Until then, the countdown timer will serve as a reminder to my long awaited freedom.
.
I've been waiting for it for 4 years. 4 years far too long... the feeling of getting close to what you've been working hard for so long is... hard to be put into words... you must experience it yourself... see you at the other side comrades!

Motivate Me: Hava Nagila

הבה נגילה ונשמחה


DISCLAIMER: Despite what the Zionists did lately, I reassure the audience that I did not bring up this song purposely to invoke any pro or anti-semitic sentiments. I would like to stress out that I split governmental/religious sentiments from culture and not one of the crowd that chants "DEATH TO ISRAEL" while deleting the Jewish menorah in the Microsoft Word clipart. I admire worldly culture and Hava Nagila happens to be one of the folk songs I love. P/S: I'll make it clear I'm okay with Jews (there are some on campus) but I don't like Zionists. Same like how I like Muslims but not Islamic Terrorists.


At the eve of the finals, I can be seen or heard humming to Hava Nagila at the end of the semesters. It's a celebration song and here it goes;


Hava nagila, hava nagila (Let's rejoice, let's rejoice)
Hava nagila venis'mecha (Let's rejioice and be happy)
Repeat


Hava neranena, hava neranena (Let's sing, let's sing)
Hava neranena venis'mecha (Let's sing and be happy)


Uru, uru achim (Awake, awake brothers)
Uru achim belev same'ach (Awake brothers with a happy heart)


Hava Nagila Guitar
Hava Nagila Epic Dance
Hava Nagila Trance (WARNING! BASS REQUIRED)

Haze in Perth(?)

*COUGH COUGH COUGH COUGH* Nah just kidding, it's harmless, just smells...
What looks like a cool scenery of the campus in the morning actually smells like haze... smells like home... owh it's not morning its evening, I mostly have late evening classes...

Visibility still okay, hey I had worst in Sibu '98...

Wow I didn't expect Perth to experience haze as well. This seriously brings back memories of Miri campus where the air reeks of the smell of smoke. When asked about the source, the answer was not surprisingly our famous and close neighbor... didn't manage to catch the news to verify though, since I barely got time to do so this week.

However what makes this haze unique is that it is the opposite of Miri's hot, steamy and choking variant. The haze here do smell, but not to the point of choking one's lungs. And it's cool at 20°C. This is a nice change of experience ;)

My Very Own Weather in My Room

It's autumn, but it's summer at my desk and winter at my bed

It's mid autumn now(?) and everything is cooling down. It can be as high as 26°C in the morning (seriously there's sun but no heat) and a freezing 9°C at night. So to warm up we who were born naked wrap ourselves in thick clothing of other animals and/or synthetic material.

Today's forecast; sunny at the west with a chance to smell like ramen, and cold winds from the east.

Since I'm being optimistic I'm gonna say my room has a gifted curse/cursed gift.
To help warm up a good simple heater can be turned on to give some warmth to your cold hands and feet. Sadly for my room the heat flow is limited as seen above.

My bed is exactly under the window and even when it's closed the coldness can still creep in. The heater is FAR FAR away and is blocked by a chunky towering wardrobe. The heat never reach my bed hence I'm forced to rolled up into a thick human sushi to avoid becoming a popsicle. To add insult to injury the heater only manages to heat up my ass and my back when I'm doing assignment, making me feel more stressful. Do you know how it feels like to have hot ears AND being stressed?!

I like coldness, but this is obviously not the Sibu cold and wet weather that I got used to. Thankfully the food here are all heavy and generates a lot of heat. Looking forward to the harsh and cold exam month of June.

Great Storm of Perth


I was disgruntled at the weather forecast for saying there was going to be a storm on Monday (got me all the trouble of doing laundry and use the somewhat ineffective dryer). Then as of 10am it was sunny like usual and I was "WTF?". So I carried on with extra effort to dry my laundry and other tasks. Then at 4pm on my way to campus it was cloudy again and I thought it was going to be another fake, all dark and cloudy but no rain. But as of 5pm, everything went down.


The sight was awesome! The chaos, the lightnings, the razor winds, the hail the size of golf-balls, the flooding, tree pieces flying, the blackouts, the EMP shockwaves that severed telecommunications, owh man it was like the end of the world complete with idiots screaming "OMG WE'RE GONNA DROWN!" and occasional near-naked laughing dudes running around in the heavy rain and hail storm. And I can't believed I was told to evacuate the campus (I was taking shelter in the library with hundreds others trapped) with all those lightnings and flying debris.

I thought this was normal occurrence in Perth but it is not. They said this was the worst/best(?) hail storm ever for the past 15 years.

Too bad I didn't record anything because I didn't wish to be struck by lightning while filming. All the way from campus to my house I was thinking about saving my ass and avoiding trees. I won't upload much to save bandwidth, so below are some of the links you can read to see the severity of the hail storm. Owh you might be interested to join this facebook group:

Perth So Far

Me & my mates from Unit 14 (and a Wallaby at Caversham)

Well it's been a month, and everything seems to be going pretty well. I've done almost everything I wanted to do in Perth e.g. see and touch the natives such as the koalas, kangaroos and other Australians. Walked around town in different times to experience the foreign weather (the 20-16°C temperatures are just nice.... to sleep in...).

However after a while there are also unanswered questions left in my list e.g. why is the 2 dollar coin bigger than 1 dollar? or which way the toilets here spiral? (can't tell, the flush here is so aggressive and splashes every direction). Made a few connections with the locals, especially the food sector (fingers crossed can get discount :p).

I also have started to value the food here after not converting them with the 3x currency exchange rate, I mean 3 dozens or 18 eggs/carton for $4 is cheap! And the random item they put up for offer are always welcomed. $1.99 2 liter Pepsi? $0.99 Snickers? $2.99 for a large Cadbury caramello? (Well they are cheap because they are near expiry). Those are really sweet to fill in the gaps in between meals because I've been eating more since the weather cooled down. And no I'm not gaining weight because they get burned fast because I do 99% walking from my house to campus and the not so nearby shopping centers.

As for campus life, the fact about low class attendance was true after all. I remember stressing out a day before Week 1 because some of the classes I want and CAN enroll in have 0-1 vacant spots left. But as the week progresses (now entering Week 4), a full 32 pax seminar is now attended by only 15-20 people and the number is expected to decrease over time. I should've forced myself into already full classes so that I can have 2-3 days-only of classes per week. But never mind, the current timetable scheme of Mon-Thur class is okay by me.

The capped bandwidth here is a killer. After I reached the 500MB usage after 2 weeks (got the 1.5GB home use for 3 months) I became more apathetic of the bandwidth because 1.5GB for 3 months is seriously unfeasible. A round of case study, research and journals download can take up to 60MB per session. Looks like I have to top up soon to 5 or 10GB to survive the coming weeks. Gonna fork out the bank again. Haihz, the supplies expenditure is okay with $70 per week. But it is these external expenditures on services that contributes to stress and a lot of sighs. Like what a Bruneian comrade here said "money here is like water"... some of you should see how Irwin reacts when he receives the bill; like receiving results and delay opening the mail until tomorrow, and if possible never...

Speaking about cash, I've decided to pause my search for a part-time job because I no longer have a unit that requires me to (apparently I don't appear in the Perth's unit list, and the class was already full so I had to swap to another unit to graduate). Apart from that there's the distance issue and balancing time with studies. So what do I do now? Make my own laptop servicing and online web-designing to earn some cash from home. Some of the local laptops here are amazingly advance I dare not to cut them up to service them to avoid legality issues. I mean, have you seen a 22 inch screen, i7 processor with CUDA Dell? Hardware-wise is a no-no, and even software-wise I might think twice considering all the stuff here are authentic and non-lanun :p

Well I better get busy again, next week is Week 4 with a portfolio due and a midterm paper to score. After that it's 2 tuition free weeks with vague plans of doing some more sight seeing around Perth. Itadakimasu!

Perth!

Finally I got a stable line of my own to start blogging. Damn it took me more than a week to do so, but anywho, let's write them out before my memory depreciates.

It all began at the LCCT (yup I took AirAsia for both SBW-KUL and KUL-PER). Arrived at KUL at 4pm and got 6 hours to kill before the PER flight at 12am. Thankfully got Sitchin's 400 pages thick The Wars of Gods and Men to help me avoid turning into Tom Hanks in his movie The Terminal.

Then by midnite, regrouped with my mates who were on exchange program as well, and then we embarked on our 5 hours journey to Down Under. Gosh, the flight was no where close to the word "comfort". It's either my seat was nonadjustable, or maybe I'm noob and can't find the adjusting lever. So the whole flight I was trying to sleep at 30 degrees position, leaning behind the wall of the lavatory. How long did I sleep? 1 hour. Had a nice chat with a 2nd year UWA A&F girl seated beside me though, but that did not change the fact I did not get enough sleep.

Arrived at PER around 5:30am, ok la technically 6am because of the long immigration and custom checks. After those were done, got me a Vodafone simcard (BIG MISTAKE!) and got out of the airport.

Wah, the air in Perth is so fresh and cold, although it is not the chill-to-the-bone kinda cold. Got to a friend's aunt's place to chill before check in (thanks Khe Han's auntie!). At 2:30pm checked into Vickery in Bentley. The campus IS large, but it's kinda short walking distance from one point to the other. It's just the huge buildings that make the campus seem bigger. Owh and my house is "happening" with all dudes from Kenya, Mauritius to Malaysia. Reminds me of the good old days in Curtin Villa in Miri.

Within less than 2 days I met up with old comrades who were already in Perth from the time of old. As mentioned, it's a small town and it is peaceful. And closes at 5pm.

One thing I find it hard to find here is halal meat! Owh gosh the first week went on without a decent meat because I was still settling down. I managed to go through though, although people having misconceptions of what is kosher or halal made me more cautious of the food here (if the chicken is not slaughtered it not kosher dude!).

Well also, the rivalry of big companies here (along with their services) are reminiscent of those at homes. We have Telstra (TMNet) that arguably have poor service as mentioned by the locals (although it's better than TMNet's speed, I wonder how the Ozzies will feel like if they experience Streamyx). And there's this AUD29.00 reload that gives you AUD150.00 credit. Yea I was WTF at first but then I know how they played, hence the joy when I got my Vodafone number. It charges you more for SMS or calls so actually the rate is the same with normal reload value. And a LOT of comrades here uses Optus, so the charge is higher for both sides. Now I'm considering changing to Optus if my usage rate is highER than my tolerance level.

Haven't been to all parts of Perth. Just Swan Valley and Fremantle. Even so I can tell you buildings here don't exceed 3 stories. And to those who Word-of-Mouthed me about the fish and chips in Freo, you guys are spreading it blatantly man. Nothing special about the fish & chips there la, although it does make you full. But I will continue my personal sub-quest for the ultimate Fish & Chips in PER.

Well that's all for now. It's now the transition of summer into autumn with awesome 16
°C nights. Semester has begun and from the looks of it, I can't get cocky here because now there are more predators in class with better skills.

Cheers~!

End of Summer Course 2010

Snapshot of closing stock price from Capstone® Courier.

Well my summer course for the year 2010 has ended. The time period of 5 weeks ended just like that. And I've also retired from the CEO post at the DIGBY. After 8 years of prosperity and noob blunders, I'm quite happy with the outcome despite not being able to be #1. Hey, at least the company got listed in top 10 globally in 2015. To our dear competitor Baldwin, good job. And to the managers of finance, R&D, marketing, production, TQM and HRM of DIGBY, I'm honored to have worked with you all throughout 2010-2018.

The two big competitors Baldwin (left) and DIGBY (right) flanked by our lecturer/facilitator at the center.

"Facebooking at work is illegal!" so says me when I'm asking for pork from colleagues for Restaurant City.

The "retirement" lunch at Citrus, followed by a few minutes of camwhoring session later :p

Most likely the last picture of me in Miri campus for my degree. Things always look beautiful moments before you leave. Oh well, I wanna congratulate KY & ZY for their unofficial graduation, and all the best for CK, FT and me for our last semester. See you guys around (mostly Facebook) and remember; always buy capacity! And happy new year!

Midsummer Course Blues

I'm having the blues. Maybe because the thought of everything is coming to an end again. Maybe it's because of departing with loved ones. Maybe it's just the Maggi I'm eating. 2 more weeks and its the end of summer course. 1 more month I'll be flying to Down Under. Hard to put this kinda feeling into words. It's like a cloudy sky with wind blowing gently enough to push the rain-bearing clouds, with no apparent sun but it's sunny enough to make you smile.

Alternatively if to describe it in music, I've been feeling Snow Patrol for the past few days and below is today's stuck-in-the-head song. Dedicated to whoever is feeling this unexplained feeling. Also dedicated to the one who has touched the brightest star.

Senadin - e-Mart's Jalan Ilmu: Rest in Pieces

It was the 3rd consecutive rainy day but summer course went on. It was Round 3 session for my Capstone and the group yielded promising results. As promised it's time for a small celebration at the newly opened e-Mart KFC.
On the way back to continue our work we used the same Senadin - e-Mart road which was heavily flooded with everyone treading at 10-40KMph. Miri roads in these parts are just like Sibu roads, except that it produces more random potholes after rain (mind you it was raining for 3 days 4 nights already). I guessed this happened on the way back...

We didn't notice it as the road was already bumpy and the strong currents of red earth water made any holes undetectable (just like Sibu-Mukah road, except in Miri the dark-water flood hides the 1-6 inch potholes on the dark wet asphalt). The damage was only discovered BEFORE we went back to Purgatory and AFTER I was going to send on of my teammate to fetch her laptop. I was flabbergasted at the damage because 5 people in the car did not even feel a thing on the way back.

I guess that's why a JPJ SUV from Senadin slowed down and pointed at me (I thought he was talking to his colleague about the rising water). Anyways we went back to the possible crash site and as expected I saw pieces of my front kit scattered and submerged along the already sinking road. Picking up the pieces was no fun job, and the sight of us stopping on the middle of the road made drivers from Senadin turn back. It was über-saddening to experience such accident and my jolly mood was 100% changed into über-emo moment.

The next day, or the 4th day of raining the Getz was sent to a body shop for a refitting as engine or tires were not affected. It will be a few days before I can get it back. And later the same day I asked my cousin to drive me back to that road to see what 'killed' the Getz. As expected the road was still flooded.

Not surprisingly at ground zero, we found more pieces of body kits scattered around the road. They're not mine because I collected all the pieces back (a sad complete-the-puzzle moment when I got it all). And from what I can see there's a huge piece of a metallic silver Myvi's rear body kit looking 'fresh' on the semi-flooded asphalt, along with other pieces of unrecognizable carbon fiber and plastics. I guess the owners of those debris didn't know their vehicles' body kit got PWNed by the killer road. I feel like erecting a memorial at the site but the cost of the repair is already costly. Plus suing Miri Municipal Council or JKR is not feasible because it is not clear who should be blamed for this accident (let's not forget the lawyer cost).

I really hope Miri's Minicipal Council look into this matter IMMEDIATELY and patch up the holes before more damage is done, or worse. Please do revise the drainage system of the Senadin-e-Mart road which is ironically named Jalan Ilmu (Knowledge Road). We do know gaining ilmu is no easy task and costly, but please the safety and sanity of the students, as well as the other Senadin residents are at stake. I'm pleading on behalf of the community here, as well as the whole Miri community, for the matter to be attended to a.s.a.p. We don't want another Sibu-Mukah road. I'm already stressed out because of this avoidable accident. Haihz...


To those who are reading this, especially those who are in Miri, driving, and uses the Jalan Ilmu, please do re-post this somewhere or at least spread the word to prevent other drivers from suffering the same costly fate as we did. Thanks to all who gave me support and help during this unbelievably emo-causing accident. Thanks also to DIGBY and Fiona for the recordings.

End of Year 3 Semester 1

...end of my semester in Miri as well as an end a comrade's life

I finished my last paper on a very solemn, gloomy and drizzling Tuesday morning. I like the weather, it reminded me of hometown. After the finals I didn't get much of the Hava Nagila mood anyways, partly because I've been through the same procedures; study, play, revise, study, exam, finish exam, celebrate, play, for the past 3.5 years. Next semester is going to be my last doing the same thing, so I do get that same feeling "here we go again" and at the same time "I'm gonna miss this" knowing I'm not gonna do all these student life thing again anytime soon.

Speaking of final semester, I broke out the exchange news to some of my comrades. after the papers. And yes those who are very close to me was expecting me to finish and graduate here in Miri. Alpha was the 26th to be so surprised (not fake, you don't have to be a marketer/PR/psychologist to tell) and asked me to stay. But after the 15th person I was adamant with my decision.

Later that evening I joined the memorial service for a fellow Curtinian brother Mathew who passed away a day before his last paper. Rest in peace comrade.

It is things like this that makes me more... apathetic of life. I guess I've seen too many deaths to show me that things have to end and there's nothing a mortal could do to bring back a life. Only to carry on with life while we still have the opportunity.

For now, let's layan some Fort Minor. Happy holidays comrades.

Marketing Research Presentation Sem 2 '09

This was the third and perhaps last best MR presentation I attended. And wow, it has been 1 semester since it was my group's turn to present our papers half a year ago. And Irwin's the semester before that. Now it's my juniors.

Anyways at the end of the semester 3-4 groups with the best research from the unit Marketing Research will be selected to present their findings to a panel of judges. And this time there were 4 groups with the best research to be presented, with topics of:

  1. Men Skin Care Product (common research every semester)
  2. AirAsia
  3. TMNet
  4. Men Skin Care Product (see how common it is?)

Friends and comrades showed up to give support. As well as students who will take the unit next semester.
The judges from School of Business' economics, marketing and business information department.

Graphs and formal wear are common scene in such event.

And after each presentation they will line up to face the firing squad, except that the lecturers will be shooting them with questions. Failure to answer results in instant death.

And congratulations to the group of the men skin care product (uh, the first one) as the best of the best for MR presentation Sem 2 '09. Time to grow old Ham...

Students Bid Farewell to Stress, Assignments

TEHRAN: It was the time of the semester again, hence the reason why there were no updates for the past few weeks. Owh well, I managed to survive and continue to blog another day.

Despite only having 2 days of class this semester with 4 units, I never felt so WTFBBQed by the amount of final year workload. Before I knew it it's already Week 12, the last study week. Whatever happened to the past 11 weeks remains a mystery.

Just completed my take home exam, which means I have finals for another 3 units. And next week is revision week followed by finals the week after. Time to destress for a bit, then hit the books when my body system and chemistry switched to final mode. Wishing all a happy finals, and may the Force be with you.

Pick & Save Mart

DPS (Dua Puluh Sen Discount Store) is now known as Pick & Save Mart. Everything is now more expensive by a few sens. And more green & yellow.
