I guess you more or less know how busy I am and the reason why I am not updating my blog. Not that I don't want to update, just that I don't have the time. I am a busy man !

100% assignment based course is not really that good as how it sounds like after all. You see, the assignment (or also known as assessment) given are actually our examination, instead of saying we have a 100% course work, why not saying we have 100% examinations.

Right. People you know what what KTM Stesen stands for ? Let me tell you, it stands for Kami-Tipu-Mereka-Semua-Tetapi-Elakkan-Seluruh-Efek-Nanti. Well, I think this is very true lo. As for your information, the new KTM machine at Setia Jaya (on the bridge) is spoiled, and I did not know, so I clicked to the destination I want to go, and put in the correct amount of coins into the machine as it stated that the machines can't receive notes (because that notes-insert-hold is spoiled and there is a piece of paper covering that part). A total of RM 1 coins was insert into the machine, only the machine says that the whole thing is spoiled.

I went to the counter which is just one step away from the machine and asked the guy who was looking at me from the beginning of the whole time, whether is the machine spoil, and he answered yes. Look how stupid he is, having fun seeing me wasting my money huh ?

It's even more stupid on last 2 weeks. When I was in KL Central with Florence, we paid RM 3.60 in total for 2 Subang Jaya KTM ticket. I did not check the ticket after that and went to the platform. The train came half an hour late. When we are almost reaching Setia Jaya, the worker came and had an spot check. He found out that our ticket is not the correct one, what I mean is it's not suppose to go to Subang Jaya. That ticket cost RM 4.80 each and do you think I want to waste my money just to go back to Subang ? He is just so stupid, he called us out and told us that we had gone into the wrong train and wanted us to pay RM 10 each as penalty.

I told him it's not my fault for taking the wrong ticket but it's the counter's fault who gave us the wrong ticket, he said don't worry as he will complain the fella who work at the counter too and will ask her to pay for the penalty as well. What the heck ? Paying from the both sides ? Then where will the money go ?

Dara went back home at Sungai Buloh at 9 pm the other night. Why ? She was stucked at the KL Central for 4 hours. Imagine that. She was so angry and scolded the Station Master and found out that there are 20 plus trains in action currently whereas the other 30 plus trains are now MIA. Freaking hell, they said that all MIA trains were spoiled and fixing it now.

But question is, are they fixing it ? Since they are so smart can get extra money from 'stupid' customers who never check his or her ticket and holds the wrong ticket, why aren't they doing anything ? I just found out that another friend of mine from Indonesia actually got the same problem as she came down from the wrong station, but she can actually go down and take the other train back to her initial station as she missed her station, the man insist her to pay. I guess she paid as she don't know what to do.

You know what ? I think the man who do the spot check and the fella who give the wrong ticket actually are in a group. They purposely give the wrong ticket and ask the man to look for the unlucky one. The reason I said that is because I once receive a ticket of somewhere else, which actually I want to go to somewhere before that station, I told the guy that he gave the wrong one but he said it's ok, since the station I want to go is before the one printed on the ticket, I can actually get out.

So people, next time if you are taking KTM home or to anywhere, do check the ticket and see whether it printed the correct destination you want to go. I felt so embarrass that day as everyone was staring at me, as though I am a thief. I told myself that day it self, if possible, do not take the KTM anymore.

Hate it ! [J]

New Friend

Let me introduce you Su Zhen, Taylor's Business School's Student Helper, which is quite obvious, the only girl in the picture. Then the lame boy in the middle, Geoffrey, together with me the nerd after lunch in Signature (food court) KLCC, on the way back to the exhibition hall.

What exhibition hall ? Forgot to let you guy know, I am one of the student helper for Taylor's College Petaling Jaya. I help out in Facon Education Fair which is located in KLCC, convention centre. That is why you see me in my formal attire.

Two days of working experience in Facon Education Fair. Met some old friends. Learn something new. Of course had gain some special experience. Met new friends. Got to sweet talk the lecturers (kidding). And most important, get to counsel parents and students, which is something I wish to do.

Degree Life, A Brand New Life...

I remember saying this the day before college to Cheng Han on MSN, "I am ready for college, but not ready for degree". Very true, I still can't get use to the degree life and system although I am already a week in the class.

First of all, I can't really adapt the time to wake up early every morning. I slept at around 1 mid night almost every day and I have to wake up at 6 in the morning. Felt sad to leave my bed and I can't really open my eyes even though I took my bath. Been taking quite heavy breakfast recently, Roti Bakar with Ham and Egg together with a cup of SWEET hot milo (consider heavy to me). I can't stand myself from starvation and I realised bread is not enough for me, after working for 2 month in college, I know it quite clear. Hence, a lot of money wasted.

Lecturers, as usual, some are good and nice and cool; some are just so-so, not so good nor so cool, but ok to their students. I just don't like lecturers who can't control his students. As you know, I am in a 30 plus students class during tutorials and about 80 students in lecturer class. Imagine if the class is out of control, it will be disaster !

Classmates, some gone to USISA UNISA in Adelaide, Australia; some gone to Monash, Lim Kok Weng or somewhere else; the rest remain and many new comers. I am still suffering with the Dory Memory problem and I can't remember all my fellow classmates' name still. I wish I can know every single one soon ! Alicia who gone to Monash came back today ! And I am happy with that !

I still carry on working as a Student Helper, helping Benjamin for his marketing stuff. Someone had officially took over my job last time but my job now is equally boring ! I almost fell asleep these few days due to lack of sleeping time.

Degree life, a brand new life, an independent life where you do your own studies, do your own assignments, check your own schedules, send your assignment to Australia through the Uni Portal, and your responsibility for everything ! I really wish I can cope with the new hectic life and manage to pass my degree within this 3 years.

Good luck everyone ! Do give me moral support too ! Need it badly ! Hahaha ! Cheers people. [J]
