Kingsley said the photo looks like those 70s girl

After awhile of running with the kite, our kite still didn't went up =.= *yes la, my suggestion failed*
So, we observed and learned from others!! Later on, we followed how an uncle and his kid "fly kite" Then here comes Kingsley showing us how to do it!

We must do it with the most "charming" SMILE~ ^^

Wakakaka! I bet he wanna kill me when he see this..
Neways, after few attemps Toma did it! The Kite stayed for awhile la.. not very long.. haha!

Just before we leave, I saw one weird-ugly-funny looking kite. Seriously dunno how to explain la.. hahaha! I wonder what will the creator will think when he sees this...... sad case...

Another funny thing we saw when we enter the park, but this was a good one... haha!

You must be wondering why is the dinner so late right?

IEEE ScOReD 2008 Conference

Friends,,

Before I began with my sharing session here, I would like to thank to my supervisor, Dr Nor Kamariah and Dr Micheal for sponsoring me to the ScoRED 2008 conference in Johor Bahru and also not to forget En Azrin Yang Garang for publishing the OBE paper for that conference. The conference was held in Faculty of Electrical Engineering, UTM, Skudai, Johor Bahru from 26 - 27th of November 2008. All the expenses are paid by UPM and I don't need to pay anything for that conference,,, !!! he he he..

First Day

I had a nice accomodation there and we from Department of Computer and Communication Systems Engineering, UPM, stayed in a 5 star hotel in Johor Bahru which is Pulai Springs Resort and here is the snap shot of the picture inside the room that I stayed and its surroundings.

The kitchen inside my room

Cinta Ayu Block,,..the name of the apartment

A post with The beautiful Golf Course as a background

That is the 1st activity when I arrived in the Hotel at the evening,, Then at nite on the same day,, together with some of the International Student of our Dept, we had our dinner in Danga Bay which is located at the border of Johor Bahru and Singapore.. It is one of the Iskandar Malaysia Project and one of the tourist attraction place in Johor.

Danga Bay,,.the place I hang out at nite

The group of UPM KKK students,, only me is undergraduate student among of them

In the strait of Tebrau in Danga Bay

And, lamb chop + lime juice is the meal for my dinner,, it cost RM 20.00
(No need to use my own money too.... later claim back,,,,haaha)

That is the my first day in Johor Bahru..


26th of November, the start of the conference in UTM ,,

Prof. Ir. Dr. wiseguy@wenjian in front of the foyer of Faculty of Electrical Engineering, UTM

Students of Dr Micheal Ng Chee Kyun, Dr Iqbal and Dr Nor for SCORED 2008

And My tag for the conference

During the lunch time, I was surprised to met En Faisul Arif,, our microprocessor Lab Demo.. he also published and presenting his paper there with the title of Optimization of Fuzzy Rules in Fuzzy Controller System Ordinal Structure Model of Fuzzy Reasoning for Obstacle Avoidance Behaviour in a Khepler Mobile Robot.

En Faisul's paper presentation during the parallel session

My poster in the booth for RFID and Student Centered Learning paper

And now is my turn to present the paper in a poster format since I was under the undergraduate category.

When I was presenting, many people thinks that I'm either a final year student, master degree or PhD student from UPM.. But I'm not.. I'm a second year of undergraduate student in the Department of Computer and Communication Systems Engineering, UPM.. Undergraduate also can produce a quality research mah,,rite ?? especially from KKK dept of UPM..

Although I did not won anything,, but it is a great experience for me. I can see on how is the regular or postgraduate presentation going on and it is just like we are doing a ECC 3002 presentation...

I also can add up my technical knowledge in the field of Electrical and Electronic Engineering field and I was impressed by the Robotic Team of UTM. I can say that,, actually and to be honest, UTM is the best place to study Engineering compare to others as their undergraduate project are SUPERB, especially for Artificial Intelligence and Robotic Engineering........

The conference is over and it is my first ever conference,, I hope there is more and more conference coming in for students to participate. I was inform that, next year UPM would be the host for the SCORED...perhaps, anyone of you could start drafting out the paper to be submitted next year ??Who knows u might get the Best Paper Award for Undergraduate.....

Mission Accomplished.....

Before each semester began, I've set my own mission and my task is to make sure that it is DONE at the end of the semester.

Mission 1 : To get back my dean list and bring up my CGPA to first class CGPA (Completed)

I've just got my official result yesterday, and yes, I've got back my dean list and my CGPA is first class now after a slight drop during my previous semester. Now my task is to maintain it as I'm one of the Intel Penang Design Center Scholars.

Mission 2 : To get recognition from at least one of the computer giant company and to get a free undergraduate education (Completed)

I've achieved the mission 2. It is my long term goal while doing my undergraduate studies in Computer and Communication Systems Engineering. During my past semester, I was applying for Intel Penang Design Center Scholarship programme 2008. I've got the offer from them with the scholarship worth RM10, 000 per year. My Dream Come True at the end, with Intel, as Intel is the largest semiconductor company in the world. I've always thinking want to work for Intel, and thank God, I've got the recognition from them. Now my task is to meet their expectation as I'm going to sign the contract with them on 9th January 2009 : work for Intel Penang Design Center for 3 years upon graduation. I hope this would speed up my process, of getting the title "Ir" (a title for Professional Engineer) before the age of 30.



Besides, I'm one of the DiGi Student Ambassador (under DiGi Yellow Army Programme) in my campus, Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM). DiGi is one of the largest telecommunication company in Malaysia.




Mission 3 : Active in extra curricular activities and at the same time maintain high CGPA at all the time (Long term mission)

During my past semesters, I've participated a lot of extra curricular activities within the faculty and also the college. Being the Program Director for the "Career Guidance Talk in IEM", ad hoc committee member of E - Challenge 2008 (Director of Logistics Department), Publicity Director with the Engineering Students Society (PEMAJU)

All of the activities above strengthen up my resume as resume is one of the tools to sell myself to the market in the future. Besides, it also helps to develop management skills and also my soft skills. It is one of the greatest achievements for me, active in extra curricular activities and also balance up with the high CGPA at all the time. I hope this would continue in the next semester to come. Next semester I would be rather busy, as one of the Director for Career and Self Development Expo 2009 (CDEX 2009) and also UPM Charity Run 2009 Organizing Committee.

I've still have a long way to go in UPM as an undergraduate student,, it is still far away to accomplish this mission during the last semester


Special thanks to my lecturers, my coursemate, my friends and my family for giving me support at all the time.

History of Trance ^^

A post from my own blog which I would like to share ... part of it tells the history of trance. xD Really looking forward to the desapark city thing =D

The skies have cleared up and the view outside my window is wonderful !

the view without the grills

Well, the weather did great into giving me the mood to blog again ... minus the glare from the sun which makes focusing on the monitor difficult. *closes curtains* much better !

I've been reviewing a lot of blogs lately due to boredom and the long wait to get prison break from menwai =D a lot of people is writing about what they did during the past year, their memories etc etc. That inspired me =x well, I've done a lot of reflecting also but they are just merely thoughts going through my head and I've never really tried to arrange them and put them together.

First and foremost let me start with my friends from Wangsa Maju xD

It was during form 5 when during our many lepak-ing sessions at the playground at night (i'm sure kc remembers it xD) when we talked and loong mentioned something about a photobook where we collect all our photos together and we each get one to help us remember each other when we graduate later. First I thought it was fun to get each and everyone's baby photos and put them together haha xD and then the idea evolved into what we call ourselves today - Trance
and boy ... how we've grown xD

The first and foremost how can we start this without introducing our 3 "flowers" xD

from left : waiyee, sueann n munlee

That was how they looked like when we were form 5 and from my previous post I bet people will be curious on who is the unlucky Kings so here he is with wantin his long-term partner in crime .. or can we say victim of his but jokes aside they are do bring life to the party when both of them are together ... their never-ending bickering really does bring joy to the party xD.

thats him on the left and wantin on the right XD

okay ... I really didn't do justice with his picture so here is another one. In real life he actually looks pretty handsome xD

i've really tried .. >.<>

us in the last day of school. we really rocked that year you know ? xD

And from that they on, this "group" of ours has done a lot of things ... lots of memorable things.

We went Genting together ... A LOT.

genting 04

genting cny 06

Genting June 07

we doing the America's Next Top Model thing =D

We even flew ...


to Redang xD

trecherous walk to hotel >.<>

the whole bunch of us

As you can see in most pics posted ... we rarely go TOGETHER as in all of us together in a group for trips. These are just the trips that I've went and there are others which I've skipped. One of my wishes for the new years would be we go on one trip together ? xD (yes, one of the wishes. i want more)

And as our group really consists of a lot of people .. it is very hard for me to post each and everyone's picture so those who I haven't posted .. I'm sorry and I really don't do justice with these photos as these are only summaries of what we've done ... and by doing this post and reviewing all the photos I had saved is another experience altogether =D

This post is getting too long so it will be broken into parts ... and I also remembered why I'm lazy to blog sometimes ... uploading the photos takes a long time and I don't really like blogspot's "create posts" thing .. the formatting screws up once in a while ... especially when there is a lot of photos.

The End of part 1 ~

Main dish~
Actually there's not much choice for food there. Lots of chicken kind of dish but all so common, beef so pricey and I dunno how to choose, pasta which doesn't attracts me at all, so ended up ordering a seafood platter which I thought it will be a very large portion! DISAPPOINTING! very very disappointing! it turned out to be such a mini portion which I am suppose to share it with LeeHoon. =.=

Looks nice hoh?
My photography skill only.. ^^

The Cod & Tuna - TERRIBLE!! got the very smelly taste.. the fishey taste.. I dunno what izzit call la..
The shell fishes - I didn't eat
Shrimps - The best among all!

The fish so damn small piece lor! Damn them! Kiam siap betul... =.= Then shrimp got 3 only but is LH & my favorite food! so how? She gave me all, so I peeled 1 for her.. haha..


Finished dinner.. which doesn't satisfy my at all! haiz..

Not finished yet.. not wasting food~

So damn disappointing lor.. Then we just continue sitting there treating Marché is if it's a mamak stall. Haha!

Talk talk talk~~

Gossip gossip gossip~~

Then dessert time~~ yummy yummy!
While walking to the dessert counter, saw an uncle holding a very yummy looking chocolate cake which was really yummy! 'cos I choose that as well~~ ^^

The yummy chocolate cake!
The best food of all during that night~

Actually we got some other food that the gals took which I am now very lazy to upload it.. haha..
Got mushrooms la (HJ said not nice, very bitter), roast chicken (very normal looking), a giant sausage, mushroom soup, & chocolate moose (not cold at all)..

Since it's LeeHoon's farewell dinner.. Of 'cos must take photo together with her ma.. haha..

Purposely hide behind her so that my head doesn't looks so big!

Lastly, something that symbolizes our friendship~~
