Sketch-ies

Satu skill yang masih belum cukup tajam ialah melukis

Yes, I'm bad at drawing

Masa kecik-kecik pernah menang pertandingan mewarna je

Melukis, haih

Pokok kelapa je cantik

And this is where the problem start

In my annual assessment, I need to draw at least the completion diagram

Some of the assessor can 'get the idea' of what I'm trying to explain/draw

But, the worst, "what's with this drawing"

Sheesh.

Ok. Point tulis ni sebab tadi dapat call kena update encik boss pasal sesuatu di offshore. Dan benda tu memerlukan skill melukis. So mari melukis.

You

I think I'm strong but I'm wrong

Scanned thru ur photos just now

And I can't help to cry

I know that u r already in a very good place

Very very good.

License to kill?

Xtau name sedih sgt bile baca berita pasal ustaz pukul murid dia sampai mati

Mungkin sebab teringat kat arwah Anas

Budak-budak kan helpless

Nape la ustaz tu letak otak kat lutut ye

Anak orang kot

Kalau anak haiwan pun xtergamak nak buat macam tu

Terlajak perahu boleh diundur, terlajak laku..kaku

I think

  • I think it's not right when somebody feels that he/she is very Islamic and keep mentioning his/her family is practicing some Islamic way
  • Somehow, I always feel he/she is trying to show off
  • Sometimes, there are things that better left unsaid
  • People know how to evaluate/judge


     


     

  • I think it's not right when somebody keep mentioning that he/she is very simple
  • Whereas I know, he/she is not that simple all the way
  • Sometimes, trying to be simple may potray you as another thing
  • People know how to evaluate/judge


     


     

  • Most of the time, you have to stand by your own side
  • Be firm and insyaAllah, you will get what you want

Scholarships : JPA / MARA / PETRONAS

Read this if u r SPM 2010 candidates and u r looking for scholarship. My company did Education Sponsorship Open Day today. Below are some of the questions that I managed to ask the scholarship personnel on behalf of my sister.

For JPA/MARA


- If we have applied for JPA, do we still need to apply for MARA ?
No, u can only apply either one.

- Currently, what are among the critical subjects and why are they considered critical ?
Medic, Dentistry, Pharmacy, Veterinary

- So, what's the career opportunities for those taking Economics studies ? And actually, in what area does the government mostly need new recruitment ?
For JPA, u need to register with esila immediately after u grad.  H/ever, if government fail to offer u any job within 12months, u r free to go to other places. Mostly, JPA will absorb u under Pegawai Tadbir Daerah (PTD). 

- Upon graduation, we are bonded with JPA/MARA for how many years and what if there aren't any job vacancies ?
for MARA, u r not bonded, cos MARA = convertible loan.  U have to pay once u finish ur studies, but u r free to work anywhere u want.

JPA = scholarship.  Thus, u r bonded.  Once graduated, u have to immediately register with government.  For medic, u'll b bonded for 10 years, other science stream 7 years; econs account finance = 5 years.

Additional :

  • No. of scholarships (JPA) and convertible loan (MARA) offered  = 12,000 (1,800 oversea + balance, local uni)
  • JPA & MARA will only offer 1,800 scholarships each for oversea programs.  This number is including students graduating from Matric.
  • JPA offers limited number of oversea scholarships to countries like US, UK, Ireland since most of their scholars breach the contract / not coming back to Msia / work oversea.  But, they still send Law students to UK.
  • JPA&MARA only sponsor for degree, meaning if u want to pursue ur professional certs (ACCA&CIMA) u have to do at ur own cost.  For JPA, u have to work with government, at least 3 years, then only u can further ur studies.
  • JPA scholars are for all Malay, Chinese, Indian + Bumiputera
  • MARA convertible loan is only for Malay + Bumiputera
  • The interviews will b conducted circa 14 April.  Format : group interview, current news, some knowledge on course that u plan to pursue


For PETRONAS

- Can we apply for both local and oversea programme ?
yes, can.  For local program, u have to fill in UTP form at UTP web

- Where can we get the list of oversea universities that PETRONAS usually sends its scholar to ?
no, this'll not be reveal. H/ever students obtaining scholarship will have to undergone preparation program at local college (Taylor's, KYUEM, etc)

- In your opinion, among Accounting, Financing and Economics which has the highest posiblity to be granted a scholarship ? In other word, in 5 years time, what does PETRONAS needs most ?
Chances are all the same.  Accounting with professional certs will be more marketable.

- If PETRONAS can't provide their scholars with any job opportunities, for how long do we need to wait until we'll be notified that there aren't any job vacancies for us ? And are we allowed to find job at any other places while waiting ?
6 months. Once the 6 months over, u r no more bonded, but u still have to pay 20% from the scholarship/depend on ur degree class.  Yes, u can apply to other companies as well, but Petronas will be ur priority. (this is the new requirement, mind u)

- Let's say there aren't any job for us, will PETRONAS release their scholars and do they need to pay back. PETRONAS will release, but u still have to pay based on ur degree class. 20% will be the highest amount u need to pay.

- For those in Financing area, what do they usually do ? (and same goes to those in Economics area) : refer to brochure, next email

- Let's say we want to take professional qualification like ACCA or CIMA, will PETRONAS sponsor us or PETRONAS will advise us to work with them for 2,3 years first ?
You have to work with Petronas first and subject to management approval to further study.

- I'm the child of PETRONAS employee, what's the percentage of me getting the scholarship (and actually how does PETRONAS select their future scholars e.g: base on salary or academic qualification or co-curricular achievement ?) : same, ther'll be no priority. U only have to meet criteria listed by PETRONAS and have outstanding co-curricular activities.

 Additional:

  • 1 week from closing date/14 april, I cant remember, PETRONAS will inform either u succeed / not in the application.
  • If u r successful, u have to attend induction/IQ test at UTP 17/4-18/4 or 21/4-24/4

Am I inspiring.

Never in my dream that I imagine myself giving talk to public

Especially in order for them to aspire to become someone likes me

But that was what I did this afternoon

I was actually giving a career talk to Sabahan students, i.e. the high schools and the college students

And to add further, I actually met my former school mate, Fizan

Same as me, he needs to aspire people to become a Geologist like him.

Ciao.

Flight to KL has been delayed for almost 3 hours now K

Habit


One bad thing I wish to change is 'the too much thinking habit'.
I think a lot when I go shopping
And end up not buying things that I should buy
I think a lot when I wish to own new things
And end up not buying it at all


My wishlist still remain the same for the last 2 years:
Buy new watch
Buy new working cloth
Buy new shoes
Buy new lense
Buy wii

Everything happens for a reason.


Tok Bapak passed away this am.
I just talked to Mama that I wish to visit him this weekend.
Death just doesn't wait for us.


It was a dejavu moment for me.
Last 12 Feb , we had doa selamat cum birthday celebration for Tok Bapak.
Today, the same ustaz that recited the doa selamat was the same ustaz that recite the doa after solat jenazah, and at the gravesite.
Al-Fatihah to Tok Bapak.

Food hunt in Malaysia

What will be the first Malaysian food that u want to introduce to tourist?

-nasi lemak

-nasi kerabu

-mee goreng mamak


 

Those are recommended by my colleagues. Unfortunately, my new friend doesn't eat spicy food. It was a challenge for me since most of our Malaysian food is spicy.

Hurm, actually I just wonder. She doesn't eat spicy food, but she can withstand very HOT tea.

Isn't it the same? Spicy n HOT? Hehe


 

Ok, so the first meal I introduced her is, Chicken Rice. And YEAH, she finished it. Cool

Next day,introduced her to rice and chicken. Chicken again? NVM

Next, noodles. This is the first time she eat noodles. So, it's quite an achievement when she finished one bowl of noodles.

Next, pizza. And this is the most enjoyable meal she had. Her staple food kan. LOL


 

Once, my colleague brings our new friend to eat sushi. And when they came back, my colleague complaint that our new friend only eat a lil' bit. He's quite disappointed considering they ate expensive sushi. Heh


 

So, he failed :P


 

This week, I'm safe cos one of her countrymate is coming, so she'll go lunch together with the newbie. Thus, saving me from cracking my head on where to eat everyday, since I'm a tapau person :D

Paham dok ni? (1)

Minggu lepas, ade sorang awek Negara asing (negara terpaksa dirahsiakan, kang kate country-ist) datang attachment kt projek ktorg. Sampai 6 mac ni.

Dia cakap English dia so-so, sebab bahasa pertama dia rusia. Ok fine. Xkesah janji paham.

Bos kecik assign gue untuk bawak awek ni jalan2 klcc, tunjuk tempat lunch tak pedas, kedai top up dan sebagainya.

Kedai pertama yang awek ni tanya ialah kedai nose.

Tapi dia sebut nuuuuse. So gue konpius. Kedai ape.

Since dia awek, gue bawak dia jalan2 parkson n isetan. Bila lalu tempat kasut, awek ni sebut nuse lagi.

Lame2 baru la dapat tangkap. Dia cari kedai nose, kt tingkat 3 nuh.

So, jalan la kami ke tingkat 3. Tapi, aikkk

Kedai nose dah xde kt tingkat 3. Yadda. Name je keje klcc, tp x alert langsung kt mane ilang kedai nose.

Since kedai nose dah ilang, so tanye la awek ni nk pegi mane.

Susah la jadi travel guide yang harus menerapkan ciri2 keperempuanan ni. Lagi2 bila kena fikir kt mana nk cari pearl, lipstick murah, jam murah, tartar yellow liquid, dsb.


 


 

Kat mane nk cari tartar yellow liquid?. Ceh, rupernye itu ialah Listerine.

Kakak ni angkut 4 botol besar + 1 botol kecik Listerine. Hihi. Umah gue pun non ado Listerine ni.

Dan paling syiook bila tunjuk barisan2 lips gloss yang macam2 perisa kat dia.

"Wow, this is very cheap. 3 dollars each? I should buy for my mom and friends"

Bagus kan. Shopping kan untuk kawan2.


 

Anyhow, gue dh jumpe kt mana ilangnye kedai nose tu. Rupernye kedai nose dh turun kt concourse level. Duh. Hari2 lalu depan kedai tu, tp tutup la sebab datang keje awal pagi.
