FINAL YEAR PROJECT

Hello loves!

I was wondering on what subject or which major should I focused on for my final year. I really have no idea where is my strength and where is my weakness. Is it Structure, Material, Environment, Hydraulic, Geotechnic, or what? I really have no idea which to choose and what to do for my final year project which will start this coming semester.

Well, I thought I want to choose Buillding or Construction before but as the registration opens for the majors, the quota is full within few minutes only and I don't even got the chance and finally I choose Structure. That is my major.

For my Final Year Project (FYP), my supervisor is major in structure, seismic and vibration. So, I think, why don't I give it a try and do my very best in any of these 3. All of it sounds interesting. Up until now, I don't have any figure or idea for my FYP's title yet. I thought I want to do something related to seismic, but what can I do? Seismic occurs in the building? because of? earthquake? but in this country (Malaysia), the probability for earthquake to happen is very low. If there is any, it is just the side effect from Phillipine's or Indonesia's earthquake. Vibration? on what and how? I thought of the vibration from the piling works, but end up with my mind diverts to Geotechnic's field. haha my mind is really in a mess and I haven't make any decision yet. I just don't want to feel regret or having problems in the middle of the project and then requires me to change the title or even the whole project. That would waste a lot of time, money, energy and many more. 

So dear friends, would you like to help me on brainstorming the ideas for my FYP? your ideas are most welcome and appreciated with lots of thanks and love. God bless~

Practical

Aloha~ 

Time passed by and I was just realized that within few days more, it had been a month that I already do my internship. I'm doing my 10 weeks practical now at one of the Government's agency. 4weeks done and there are still 6 weeks to go. Wondering how would it be...

Site visit

BEGINNING~

At first, I was not planning to do my practical for this semester break, but after I heard the rumors that we need to wait for about a year for convocation if we do our practical after our very last semester, than I quickly do my resume and et cetera and escaped one of my lecture just to post my resume to any company or even the Government agencies. Thanks God, I got the reply from this Government agency on the very last minute. Well, few days before the final examination finish is considered as very last minute cause the internship starts right after my last paper (excluding the weekend as the weekend is my travelling time back to hometown). I don't want to delay the convocation cause I need to work and pay back all the study loans which is keep on increasing haha...

Meeting on site

DURING~

Practical? First few days is kinda nerve breaking cause never be in any Government offices before and can't imagine how would it be.Is it hard?busy? bored? tiring? so many question popped in my mind and still, I need to faced it... ALONE...cause I'm doing my internship ALONE. First day, report duty and bla bla bla..I was the only practical student during that time for the Building section but now I already have friends. There are 2 more practical student come and report duty on my 3rd week. During my Diploma's internship, I learned a lot of basics and now, my Bachelor's internship, I'm now more to paper works and how to manage the projects. Slightly different but in the end, it was still in Civil Engineering works. More to paper works, managing and meetings doesn't means that I didn't learnt the basics or anything new on site, I do and besides, I also refreshing the previous knowledge and gained more experience especially for sick projects, for example on how to tackle the problems or how to prevent the unforeseen problems to happen.

Since the internship is not reach the end yet so no comment for this part yet. Hehe...hoping for the happy ending (^_^)

All The Best Friends! 

PURPOSE

hello there....

i was thinking of everything that we are doing everyday....

have any idea on what am i trying to say?

well...what is our purpose on doing this and that... i'm sure that most or everyone of us had ever heard of "there is a purpose on why are you doing that" or anything related.

School, college, university 

why are you entering those place? study or gain knowledge? how? attend the class? but then why don't you pay attention in the class so that you could gain the knowledge given by the teacher/lecturer. Why did you keep on texting(sending sms), day dreaming, doing other stuff like chit chatting with friends or anything it is and you even dare to skip the class (well i was just planning to skip tomorrow's class actually hehe)

Church 

What is your purpose on attending the mass especially on Sunday? Spending time with our Lord God? Expressing your gratitude on the blessings upon you? having a conversation with God? then why did you dress improperly(i myself might not dress perfectly but at least i'm trying not to wear any revealing attire), did not pay any respect to all the flows of the mass, did not paying any attention by thinking of any other matters, talking with friends until disturbing others, texting, playing games on the phone or whatever it is?

Hanging out with friends and family

at times, i'm sure that you did go out just to hang out and having some fun with your friends and family. why? simple answer...just wanna tighten the relationship bond and having a quality time with the one you care about. if you go out with them,but then you keep on busy playing games, texting with whoever it is, your body is there but your mind is lingering around or left at home or where ever it is...then what is the point meeting your family and friend? where is the quality time?where is the fun if everyone is 'busy'?

well...all this stuff is all personally and originally from me...not to insult anyone,but it is just from my own observation. PEACE :)

i love candles~

 

The pic is kinda dark cause i capture it very early in the morning and i'm too lazy to switch on the light hehe....but i really love the view..the silhouette, the candle light, the angel statue, the Crucifix and everything...awww i really love candle...

finally i'm back

Hello friends...

Its been so long that i didn't update my blog.

I was so busy with my study and will be a lot more busy for this semester...

 Lent season is here...are you ready for fasting,abstinence and alms giving? well don't wait for lent season only, do it whenever you can...with a sincere heart and purpose :)

show your love to God by doing all the good deeds and be a good boy/ girl (^_^)

so now, repent and forgive everyone that had hurt you and go for a good confession...

anyway..have a blessed lent season my dearest friends!
don't eat much and fast especially on Friday (No meat please)....

pray a lot especially for those who need it...

fasting alone is not enough...pray,forgive and repent....

 lots of love,

 Rachel

IT'S NOT YOUR JOB

Don't condemn each other anymore.Decide instead to live in such a way that you will not put an obstacle in another Christian's path. (ROMANS 14:13)

How much easier it is to be critical than to be correct.

Marcus frowned and twitched in his seat as more feedback blared from the house speakers during Sunday worship service.

"Just listen to how bad that sounds", he whispered to Heather, his sister. "I can do a much better job than that."

Problems with the sound system had progressively gotten worse for the past three Sundays. That's when Jack took over as the new sound technician.

"What made Reverend Starnes think Jack could do that job?" Marcus wondered aloud to his sister. "That guy doesn't know the first thing about sound".

"And I suppose you do?" Heather responded.

"What do you mean by that?" Marcus said.

"You know I worked in sound at our former church. I practically ran the sound board by myself when Don was not there."

"Then why didn't you step forward when Reverend Starnes asked for a qualified person to volunteer and help out with the sound?" Heather asked.

"I had better things to do," Marcus said

"What's more important than giving your God-given talent back to God," Heather snapped
Marcus didn't answer immediately.

It was his sister talking, but he knew the words were from God. He could tell by the way he felt inside. He knew at that instant what to do.

"I'll be back in a minute," Marcus whispered.

"Where are you going?"

"To see if I can give Jack a hand with the sound".

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

God gives each of us special gifts and talents.When we use them to help others, it pleases Him.

Lord, You have graciously gifted me with talents and skills so that I can bless others. Help me to be unselfish in sharing those talents. Amen.

This story is not originally mine because I read it from a book entitled "God's hand on my shoulder"

I had been touched when I read this story and it reminds me on what happens here.(the church which I always go) <~ don't wanna describe more...the story is more or less alike with what happen here. *sad*

slimming down or keep fit?

hello there! Just out of the blue,I was thinking of my own body...I'm not sure weather my body is categorized as slim or fit or chubby or plum or anything else it would be. Well...recently there is someone who always called me Chubby...oh that's sad...or should I be happy with it? I have no idea...here is the picture when that person starts calling me Chubby...

Am I that chubby? oh my God~

or is it because of the hair cut?hihi (^_^)

suddenly I feel like doing exercise 'again'.Just a simple exercise such as pumping,sit-ups or squat only (since I didn't bring home my sports shoe a.k.a at my friend's house). It feels like it had been years that I didn't take care of my fitness. erm well,I was an athlete before but since I had my operation (August 2003), my active life had been reduced and then it stops.I can't blame others on this because it is my own fault that I didn't try to maintain it after the recovery hehehe... to be honest...I miss those days...I mean,the moments when I'm very active in sports and my health is great and my body is fit.( I mean, with muscles not with fats! hehe).This is me today...

Chubby?

I seriously think that I should back on track...having a healthy life with exercise. I hope I will maintain it and not losing it or skipping it again hehe...
Wish me luck!  (^_^)

Life is full of circumstances

It had been some time that I didn't update my blog. Well,I was busy with my cousins' fatal crash and both of them died on the spot.RIP to both Sylvester and Patrick. Thanks God the other two who was in the same car was okey where uncle Nicholas is now still recovering (the other one is just minor injuries while uncle Nicholas was admitted to ICU<~ Intensive Care Unit).

Second week, I was called for an interview. It was a scholarship interview taking place at Yayasan Sarawak's building and it took all day long (which makes my stomach cried for food because I didn't eat much for breakfast and I can't eat even though I did bring biscuits because people around me is fasting).
Phew! thanks God the interview went well. It was such an emotional interview ever! Gosh, it was so embarrassing where I was nearly burst into tears. The interview was in a group of 5 and there were 4 interviewer. As usual, all interviewee are requested to introduce our self. What I did notice is that, majority of them are fresh diploma's graduate while me...erm... I already finish my 2nd year degree and going to be a 3rd year student this coming September. Next, the question was, if they give us a stack of money, what is our contribution? oh...here is when I get emotional.(I choose not to mention why because I think it is too personal hehee). There are another question but let me conclude everything about the interview anyway (^_^). The interview was fine. What bothers me is that I was embarrassed and I was failed to control my emotion during the interview. *sigh*

Back to my hometown...
Just as I arrived home, my dad told me that one of my childhood friend's father was died because of stroke. The next day, I travel again.( drive even though feeling unwell)...anyway RIP to Mr Christopher Kapok.

Let me just cut the story short...It was a hectic week but I have no choice other than face it and move along. Anyway, life is short so live life to the fullest and be prepared for God will take our life anyway,anytime,anywhere and anyhow. (^_^)

You Are Never Alone

"I will ask Father, and he will give you another Counselor to be with you forever" (John 14:16)

Even when you feel you're most alone, God is there

Jeremy closed the front door, dropped his book bag on the floor, and headed for the refrigerator. The still quietness over the house made him sad,but it also angered him. It had been six months now since his mom had returned to work to help out with the family's finances.

Just once I'd like someone to be here to greet me when i get home from school, he thought.Why do Dad and Mom both have to work anyway? Jeremy plopped down the sofa and reached for the remote control. At least he had his video games to keep him company. But he still couldn't shake the empty feeling in his heart. 

"Lord, so many of my teenage friends either live in single-parent families or both parents work," he said. "Why can't my parents be here when I need them?".

While the computer warmed up, Jeremy spied his Bible on the side of the coffee table. Reaching over and picking it up, Jeremy was surprised when the book fell open to reveal a folded piece of paper with his name written on it. He recognized the handwriting as his mom's.

"Dear Jeremy," the note began. "I was looking for a place to leave this note, and I know you always read your Bible in the afternoon, so I figured this was my best bet. I just wanted you to know that I miss being home in the afternoons when you get in from school. Those few moments we shared each day mean so much to me, and I hoe for you as well. This job is not a permanent thing. It's just something your Dad and I have to do right now to make things more comfortable for us as a family. Our times together will return soon. Meanwhile, read the following scripture and know that in our absence you always have a friend. Love, Mom."

Jeremy glanced at the bottom of the paper, where his mom had written the words from John 14:18. 

I will not leave you comfortless.

Jeremy felt the emptiness in his heart fill with a sudden warmth- a personal "Hello, I'm here," from Him.

"Thank You, Lord, for always being here with me," he whispered and started to read.

Do you ever feel alone and that no one cares about you? Jesus said He would never leave you or forsake you. That means He is always there and ready to be a friend to you. 

Thank You, Father for being a friend to me. I can never feel alone because You have promised to be with me always. Amen...

P/s:this story really touch my heart when I read it from my book so I copy it and share with all of you..my friends... (^_^) we will never ALONE

Tuition Teacher vs Student

hello bloggers...we meet again here (^_^) hehe

>well recently I teach 2 student which the girl I teach Physics and Biology while the boy I teach English Language, Malay Language and Mathematics....

>what makes me sad is both are a very slow learner....well if the student is a fast learner, it would be easy,but if the student is a slow learner...it is hard and really need me to be patience...

>the examination is just around the corner and the student is still in a very weak phase and that really makes me worried. Well, I'm not the one who will sits the paper but still, I'm the one who worried the most. I don't know why...*sob sob sob*

> I hope I could help the student to get flying colors in their examination soon or at least passed the paper... *cross fingers*

> I couldn't understand why are they so weak...who are we supposed to blame here? is it the school teacher? or the parents? or the student it self? or the friends? well, I guess God can't be blame though cause every God's creation have its own specialties and weakness..but I do believe that every normal child are born with just the same size and quality of brain...hehehehe (^_^)

>School teacher : are they too lazy to teach or too many student to teach until they can't reach and teach every single student?or they didn't realize how weak the student is at the moment? or they did try to help the student but the student it self don't want to help himself/herself?or did they try to help but then the parents blame them for scolding their child?

>Parents : do they blame the teachers when the teachers scold their kids? or did they care about their kid's study? or are they too busy to keep an eye on their kid and just ignore their kid's needs?or they don't even know that their kid needs help in their study? or...did they give their support to their child?

>Student : did they realize how important the knowledge is? do they really want to be a brilliant student?do they want to work with a low salary in the future for not being a great student? do they really want to study or just playing around?

>friends : do they influence the student to be hardworking in study or just having fun and plays around like there is no tomorrow? did they try to compete with each other in their study or just try to compete in their games?

WELL WELL...DEAREST STUDENT..KNOWLEDGE IS SO PRECIOUS..GRAB IT BEFORE ITS TOO LATE...

P/S : now i know how my teachers feel before hehehehe (^_^) thanks a lot my dearest teachers for bringing me this far...now i'm still studying and hopefully can graduate my bachelor in 2 more years

TRUST

halo bloggers~ 

here is the topic for now...trust...

do u guys trust each other lots?? among friends, family, lovers,mates,colleague, etc etc???

how do u feel when u really trust that person and one day,u get to know that the person is already cross the line? 

don't u feel like being betrayed?or being fooled by that person? i'm pretty sure that it would be hurt~ i mean...really hurt! 

how do u feel when u and your friend/family/love/etc make a promise but then that person is the 1 who breaks the promise...sad is it? some people said...promise are meant to be broken but when you are serious with the promises made,it is not to b broken anymore but to take care of...

don't hurt other's feeling by break it up cause trust is still the key word and it takes a lifetime to built trust but just a seconds to break it! it is very fragile so please handle it with care~ <3

once u breaks the trust...it won't be the same anymore~

susahkah???

shalom brothers n sisters....

sini sy cuma nk meluahkn perasaan kejap la...sumtimes salu jg la dgr org ckp malas la nk g church,nk tido la,letih la...n mcm2 jenis alasan lg utk tidak attend mass/misa sunday yg amik masa at least sejam lebih ja pun...lgpn kita g church bkn salu (bg org2 yg g daily mass la)...ahad ja pun~ itupun susah ka?

hairan jg napa nk g lepak2, shopping mall jalan2, tgk wayang, keja, study, main games (pc ka psp ka ps2,3,4,5,6 bla bla bla hehehehe), n mcm2 lg la...suma aktiviti ni dpt pla nk buat tp g church seminggu skali??? punyalah berat mata nk buka, punyalah berat kaki nk melangkah msk church...kejap ja bah smbhyg...peruntukkan at least sejam lebih tu hanya utk mensyukuri apa yg Dia dh bg kat kita dlm dunia ni...susah sgt ka?huhuhu... kita dh trima sgala blessings dr Dia,so gv thanks la n spend some time to talk with Him n b thankful...

anyway...i'm nobody to judge..this is all about how i feel on certain people's attitude (maybe~) i just feel bad n hoping these kind of people will someday change n spend more time with our Creator~ it is not hard...just talk with Him on how u feel...don't seek God just when ur having problems or hardship....Peace all (^_^) n have a Blessed sunday...

^tuition^

what is the real purpose of hiring a tuition teacher?
 >during tuition session = the student normally asked to do some exercise from any exercise books (doesn't count on what publisher it is) and then the tuition teacher will checked it and bla bla bla~

>tgh berfikir<
 *sigh* napa plu cikgu tuisyen kalo sebenarnya kita boleh blaja sndr d rumah dgn buat latihan dr buku2 latihan extra? kalo xpaham,cari la cikgu/ lecturer time ms free (ms rehat la tu) and minta ajar@ terangkan dgn lebih jelas...kalo malu sgt or xberani nk cari cikgu pun (kut2 cikgu tu jenis mkn org la kan huhu), cari n minta ajar la dr kwn yg paham~ so xplu la buang duit semata2 nk g kelas tuisyen n meletihkan diri nk g tuisyen n bla bla bla...blaja xsusah kan?sbb suma sudah ada bahan...tggl nk tggu kerajinan diri sndr ja utk baca,olah, faham n ingat n last2 master dlm subjek tu...

sumtimes terfikir jg knapa wujud "cikgu tuisyen" ni...erm adakah utk memaksa anak2 g blaja? i mean,bg anak2 yg sgt susah nk dsuruh blaja so tpks drag dorg g kelas tuisyen  d mana akan ada cikgu utk tegaskan n suruh buat latihan...(buat latihan = blaja scr xsengaja la tu bila dh kena paksa kan)

conclusion = blaja la sndr dgn byk2 buat latihan n cuba cari sndr apa yg xfaham sbb bila korg dpt tau apa yg korg cari tu,menda tu akn senang melekat dlm otak sbb korg berusaha utk mendapatkn ilmu tu sndr~

*alamak~aku sorg guru tuisyen sepanjang aku cuti sem ni huhuhuhu* <~ cikgu tuisyen yg sndr pun malas belajar sbnrnya ehehehehhe (^_^)
