MArch & TRP final year study

Im moving into final year of architecture/planning studies. It is going to be a tough  year for me.

Malaysian Comfort Zone-Social Dilemma

After working and studying in Overseas for the past few years. I grounded myself in Penang and I'm trying to find intern jobs in Penang. It ended up a few realisation that there are a lot of Malaysians are  staying in Comfort Zone and never want to improve.

Two main issues hovering around current fresh grads, either the remuneration are being exploited or fresh grads attitudes are not up to employers' satisfactory. This two issues are currently being played out in the industry field. How this happened to our current city? Why? and How can we change it? Or not change it? All questions remain to be answered and critiqued

Comfort Zone-everyone want to stay and live in a place where simple and normal.

For most Malaysians, they are worrying of a change, keep quiet and never complain. For those who that complain, most of the time they never take action. We have to make a change. Thats our future. You guys need to keep your own stand and try to do something.

sincere thoughts

re-searching penang

currently re-locate to Penang and doing some study at Penang for the next 3 months.

5th year

1 month left to finish my 5th year..thats so fast..LOL

happy CNY

hi everyone, wish you guys have a good chinese new year !
Have a great horse year!

a new chapter of life

I have been in this new territory for almost 3 months, the study has been keeping me busy and I did not have much time to update this blog.

So far, I am enjoying my studies life here, with dual master degrees on going at the same time really keeps me busy all the time, sometimes it is really hard to change "thinking" from one course to another. But out of the frustration, Im happy with the bombardment of knowledge into my mind everyday. It created a certain spectrum that I never experience before. I find myself learn in different way, and it is definitely help me to position myself in the future game.

The experience I had during my year out (in Singapore) & my BA studies (in Liverpool)
helped me to think on the other perspective and look things in a different way. I can see myself evolving in this process.

Other than the experience I had, the atmosphere in this city is very different from what I used to have back then, the city is "boring" as it is not so popular big urban city. But I'm sure the reputation of the city is good in terms of its university and its former industrial city. It is certainly a great city to concentrate in studies, the people here are friendly in generally.

Find me on Instagram (pee399) to have more updates on me, as I rarely post stuffs on Facebook recently. :D

I freaking like this building..

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

ok ok Ah beng usually wants to pretend atas kia,

then my car below XD

yea, I wish :D

It doesnt match my hair colour, I decided throw it beside the street

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

Ok enough for the Singapore Part, 

back to Penang,

Alot of people in Bw might not realise there is a place with a strong contrast of social levels

a lift where old people scare to take,

4 lifts, broke down 3.. 

left the lift bomba, 

which the door close fast enough to kill a child o old people

alot of empty lots inside.

(not sure whether have any drugs addicted people inside?)

It's built when Im 10 If Im not wrong..I have seen that place from Atap houses 

and turn into gigantic social housing..

And now it became a slum..

when I was there, I stunned, its scary..

yet it reflected how fortunate Im to stay in hdb in Singapore..

I dare to say the worst hdb in Singapore not even worst than what I have seen

pretty scary...

although the condition living there is pretty bad...but it got a nice view to Komtar 

and people living there can admire people who live down there..

Semi attach bungalow with guards or whatsoever..

pretty sad..

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

OK! anyone wan compete drinking..comment here!!

I wonder :D

free/busy

free like shit busy like hell

last friday stay in office for 30hours. this friday did nth in the office
why the variations can be so big in this company :S

Financial Projection

as my boss mentioned this two weeks ago, he said we have to make our own financial projection.
He was saying last time he only get a low pay 1.2kSGD. But it was 25years ago. It sounds ridiculous that he said its low. LOL

anyway, as time past, I have been working for almost 3 months here, and basically I have involve in 3 projects, so far, LOL, It sounds like a lot, when In school a year only have 2 projects, quite Efficient now LOL.

as Time approach to new year, another decision has to make. Where should I go back to study.

Very headache question and process.

四马路

technically, when I started to blog usually is about rubbish or not so important stuffs, In fact its the same this time, Just sharing some recent updates to u guys.

As continue back to my previous post, my working life is just alright, although it's in a extra small company. And today, most of the time Im alone in the office. Boss not around, colleague felt sick, another one take leave to study for exam. And yes, my company only have 3 employees include me :)

Comparison to my company scale, Im able to expose from big urban projects to a very small detailing works. The working range is quite big. Im glad I have made a right move regardless to the salary paid.

My friends in Liverpool said I have gone mad choosing the least salary among all the choices, In fact, I did learn something new from my boss. (although he is quite long winded person). Also, the first month he raised me extra 300dollars :D (surprisingly, as I heard from seniors, he is kinda stingy person.LOL). Prolly Im talented. HAHAHA!

But anyways, working life is sucks, everyday I leave my home at 8pm, normally reaching home at 9pm without any food in my stomach. All because of my cleaver boss like to drag people late and no one dare to go home early. But ytd and most of the time today, I have been sitting in the office and doing nothing. Literally nothing, ez money earned :D. even nothing to do in the office, my usual off time also 8pm. unless boss not around :D

Talking about personal life, recently being rejected by a girl. Aiks, again.. :( anyway..doesnt matter life still need to move on.
-Life in singapore is so boring.
-My landlord pregnant
-hates whatsapp

Two days ago, I have a lost contact high school friend suddenly pop by facebook and ask me to go sentosa meet him. I told him Im busy and not being able to meet. End up he just bluffing at me and he is still in Penang. Such a good friend!

Back to the title of this post, 四马路, some people might not know what is this mean. Its actually a famous place in Singapore. Famous of the Guan Yin Temple.  This is the place I work, I everyday walk past that temple, but I never actually go inside and pray.

this is the middle road and waterloo street (四马路). My work place window view.


sleepy already..lazy type

life in Singapore

Living here and working here is just way too bored

Go out from Home at 8am, and normally reached home at 9pm 

miserable life, only 3 persons in the office including me

lesser friends here :(

anyway, just 11months to go

BORED!
