Exams conclude the end of semester

Hey guys guess what? I'm done with EFDP YAY!! In case you don't know, it's a unit that I WAS doing for this semester. Just then, I had my oral presentation and it actually went okay. At least better than I thought, I'm glad. Hopefully every member of the team is able to get a pass for this unit cause I don't think anyone would want to retake it especially this unit since it's kinda bitchy anyway. Lol. It's really time for me to move on and focus on the other units. Since I've already had EFPD outta my way, I should be probably able to concentrate on my studies for the exams now. Yeh, so I gotta study hard now. I really hope I can get better results than first semester. Soon, I'll be done with first year of engineering, pretty fast I reckon. After the exams, here comes the ultimate freedom and then "balik kampung". 

Anyway last thing I wish to mention in this post is that good luck to everyone who is having exams now. I know everyone is working really hard now cause it's almost towards end of the year which means it's exam period now and I shall see you guys in Brunei soon.

OH MY GOD!

OMG OMG OMG OH MY GOD !!!!!!!!!!

This time really "chua sai" (Hokkien) liao. Oral Presentation for EFDP is just couple days later. Actually I'm supposed to be writing my script now but I'm too scared to continue (I'm halfway through my script). What's the point of writing my script so nicely cause I always end up babbling some irrelevant shits. 

I get nervous when I have to stand and present in front of every single human, PHOBIA! No matter what I do or how calm I am at first, when the presentation starts my heart beats like crazy and as fast as anything you can think of. Slowly, my whole body heats up and that's when I lost control of my mind, head goes spinning round and round then my mind goes blank. "Poof" I forget every points that I've memorised for so many days. It happens even if I practice daily. "Bo bian" (Hokkien)

I myself don't even know what else I can do but I seriously don't want to stuff it up again.

All I can say is "OH SHIT" !!

Let me just get back to it. Oh man~

The Awesome Break!

Oh my god my one week break was really awesome. I couldn't even put it into words, indescribable. Why u ask? Cause it was a gorgeous one, my very first time experiencing this kind of holiday. Gotta love it! 

Okay, so I actually went to quite a few places up ahead of Perth, Australia. We went there by driving and stopped at a few places before we reached Exmouth where it was our final destination. Since it needs to take like almost a day to drive to Exmouth directly, we decided to stop at Carnavan for one night. Before Carnavan, we stopped at Leeman for a couple of hours just to have a quick rest. Well, to be exact we stopped at quite a few actually but I can't remember some of their name.

For your information, we did not live in luxurious hotel or apartment. It might be out of your expectation cause we were camping and living and staying in trailer most of the time which were really special and different to me. I like it when we were sleeping, eating, watching TV inside the trailer though cause when I was young, I only got to see those scenes in American movies and I thought I would never get to experience it but I just did! The trailer was actually huge, not a small one that you get to see it on road sometimes. Six people got to sleep in there and there was a tiny kitchen where you could cook, wash and eat. Cool right? What do you think?

And of course we did not go to big shopping centre and stuff like that. We went fishing, swimming and did what we could do in the nature such as beach, sea, bushes, rocky mountains. Anyway, it was all about nature. Isn't it nice exposing and relaxing yourself around the nature. Hell yea, I got to see dolphins, whales, emus, kangaroos and many different animals. I didn't go to see them in the zoo but in the seas, bushes and the Australia outback! What do you reckon, mate? Isn't it awesome?

I think some of you might think this is boring but you're absolutely wrong I tell you cause it was fun. I don't think I did a good job in putting them into words, it was far beyond these words so yeh unless you get to try and experience yourself. I bet you would love it! Trust me on this, it was really really good. Seriously I got to see and experience a lot in this trip and I'm glad I had a chance to go there. I did not have a good time after a long period of stressful study weeks so this trip meant a lot to me as I get to relax and chill myself off.

Couple of photos to share with you below.

I caught this fishy, Trevally! Big aye?

Welcome to Exmouth
What's interesting is that we drove pass Tropic of Capricorn! Cool stuff.

Feels Like A Korean

I've been listening and exposing myself to Korean Pop music since last year. And I gotta tell you, it's addictive. I never thought I would get myself intoxicated by K-Pop music so much. Dang, those songs are just purely awesome. I'm feeling the rhythm every time I listen to those songs even though I don't understand Korean language. Actually you don't have to if you originally don't (I'm planning to learn it if time allows me), all you gotta do is feel it, the music and the beat.

Nowadays, I only listen to K-Pop music. I do still listen to Chinese and English songs though, just that I'm spending most of the time listening to K-Pop music. Everyday, I keep searching for new K-Pop songs to feed my thirst for this current addiction of mine. I just won't stop listening to it. That's all I can say. 

P/S: Korean singers can really dance. My heart melts when I watch them dancing in the music video. How I wish I could dance just like they do.

Go check it out if you haven't done so but I assume most of you have already cause K-Pop has gone international now.

Emo Wave

I've realised nowadays people keep posting emo status in Facebook including myself which I'm not to be ashamed to admit. Perhaps, posting a sentence from particular lyrics which implies how they feel. Why is this so? They've got nothing else to do, are they? Well, I guess people are just feeling depressed and down themselves, mostly due to lovesick. Not all but most of them I suppose.

Did it just hit on you? 

Are you experiencing exactly the same thing that I mention as well?

From my perspective, posting this emo status which describes certain feeling that people are going through is just like what I'm doing now, blogging, by putting everything or anything of what you feel and think into words and share it with people that you're connected. Agree with me? Or maybe disagree then. Anyway, this is what I think, it's only my personal view. It maybe wrong so you don't have to take it seriously. Everyone has their own view, I know.

Sometimes, I also do post things like I mention above in Facebook especially when I'm feeling dejected and stressful. I tend to get blue easily ever since I went overseas to pursue my further studies. This might be due to the loneliness and homesickness, feeling far apart from where you belonged and used to be. Apart from that, it is more likely to happen because of lovesick if you have fallen with someone else. But bear in mind, all of these don't mean that I don't have any friends or people who talk, care or love me here. It doesn't mean I have fallen for other guy. Those are just assumptions and possibilities. I'm making this sound more ambivalent and it's a good thing to do cause I don't want anyone who concerns about me to worry about my life. Truth or lies? 

Anyhow, life here is going pretty well. Nothing big deal except for the bombardment of reports and assignments that are pissing me off every time and causing more stress over me. Perhaps, I shouldn't barry about it so much cause it meant to be this way. Came to think of it, I've still got two more reports to be done. Annoying much! But honestly since I came to Perth, life has changed dramatically, even my attitudes and perception of different things. 
It is much expected as living in another country with different cultures may alter your lifestyle and point of views. I've learned and experienced a lot and also get to know more different people. There are good and bad things and going through all these really have taught me a lot that I didn't even realise it could go this way. Overall, it's always good to experience them.

Life goes on and there are still many things and events waiting for me to be experienced so I gotta be strong and determined! Yes, that's what I gotta do. Be more positive towards life.

Noobie

I've been wanting to create my own blog just like what others do for a long time but I haven't got any time to do so until tonight. Well, you can say it is just an excuse because I actually can manage to do it no matter how busy I was. Anyway, this is going to be my very first post on this blog (obviously) so I'm trying to write this not boring and dull as I can or else people might not even want to read my blog.

To be honest, I'm still not very good at editing the whole blog as I've mentioned that this is my very first blog that I have created in my whole life. Hopefully, I can spend more time on discovering this whole new thing and writing more posts. Life at the moment seems a bit hectic due to assignments, reports and a few things to catch up with. So, this is what they called uni life. Assuming most of the readers are around my age, I believe you're all experiencing the same thing as me.

Reason why I decided to blog: Firstly, I thought writing my minds out would make me feel better as in expressing all the emotions and thoughts. Rather than keeping everything to myself, which I personally think it makes life harder and pretty stressful at the same time, I've decided to put them in words and share it to the readers. Another reason is that I wish I could improve my English by writing more but definitely I will have to write more often to achieve this aim of mine. 

I should probably read more books but I'm being so lazy lately even though I'm having a study break for a week. Actually, I'm supposed to take this week to catch up what I've missed for the past few weeks but I'm just too lazy for no reason. I need some motivation and seriously, I can't afford to lose any more time to achieve what I aim for that is higher results for this semester. I promised myself not to slack anymore, it's okay if I slack once a while, and study hard. I really hope I can do this and not be disappointed with myself once again.
