What 'WORK' means to you?

Image
It has been a while since my last blog about my graduation day. And today here I am bullshit-ing again. Anyway, I had a lot of thoughts nowadays and I decided to put it in words and wanna share my thoughts with you people out there.  Well, I never mentioned before on my very first job after completing my practical training in the Ministry of Tourism Malaysia Perak. Well, let me just re-cap a bit. I got a job offer from Tourism Malaysia Perak as a Tourism Officer on a year contract and I officially started to work there on the 1 st September 2010. I am using my STPM qualification to apply for the job as the maximum requirement is up till diploma level. (I was wondering aren’t STPM and Diploma the same?). Anyway, it seems I can’t use my degree qualification as I will be disqualified because I am over qualified. (you guys know what it means) . hahaha… anyway, that’s not the whole point, the point is I am grateful enough to get a job and I don’t have to be a NEET after graduation and ...

GRADUATION~~

Image
Yeah!!! Graduation!! I am now officially a graduate from Universiti Malaysia Sabah (UMS). The graduation date was a total catch too which was on the 10 th October 2010 (10/10/10). I have been waiting for this day since I first stepped my foot in UMS. Without noticing, my three years of studies in Sabah has officially come to an end. The moment I received my scroll and that’s it, my status as an undergraduate of UMS no longer exists. My return to Sabah for my convocation happened just so fast. And I still can believe that the day had actually arrived. It still feels like yesterday when I first reached sabah, the land beyond the wind to pursue my degree. Anyway, it’s really felt great and enjoyable during my trip back to Kota Kinabalu, Sabah for my graduation.           Putting on the robe and wearing the squared graduation cap indeed gave me a great feeling. It reminds me of my hard works and sleepless nights during my studies in UMS. Most ...

Wonderful Short Trip

Image
25 th July 2010. A wonderful Sunday… I had a wonderful trip with my KPL colleagues. Though its for job purpose but for some reason, I enjoyed it very much. Thanks to Pn.Zuraida for this wonderful opportunity… and also thanks to Pn.Jamilah as she allowed me to go. After all, its my last week of practical in the ministry of tourism…                 I still remember, that day I was from my hometown, Teluk Intan heading back to Ipoh in the morning .. coz I had to reach Taiping on that day. So, after packing my stuff at my rent house, I started my journey together with my colleague, Ain (another practical student from UUM) to Kuala Kangsar. We were supposed to meet our colleague, Aiman (another practical student from UITM Penang) in Kuala Kangsar and from there we went to Taiping together. Haha…                 So, we reached Kuala Kangsar a...

Rintihan Hati

Siapakah diriku sebenarnya? Aku , Eddie Quah cumalah seorang insan biasa yang lemah. Cukupku sedari yang kita sebagai manusia tidak akan terlepas dari mengharungi suka dan duka dalam kehidupan. Aku yang dikenali dengan sikapku yang periang pun kadang kala terasa pilu di hati. Bak kata pepatah, bumi mana yang tidak ditimpa hujan. Namun pun begitu, aku tidak akan membenarkan diriku bersedih dengan terlalu lama. Kehidupan ini ada juga kegembiraan dimana mana sahaja. Adalah teramat bodoh dan membazir sekali sekiranya kehidupan ini disia siakan dengan kesedihan. Apakah yang ku perlukan sebenarnya? Sudah menjadi lumrah kehidupan dimana manusia ini sememangnya tamak. Aku pun tidak lari daripadanya. Aku mengaku yang ku juga tamak orangnya. Kalau boleh ingin ku tamak segala-galanya dalam kehidupan ini. Inginkan segalanya untuk diriku ini. Tapi, sering kali aku mengingati diriku… gembirakah aku sekiranya aku memiliki segala-galanya?? Diriku eddie quah, mahukan bukan dari segi wang ringgit. B...

Good Bye, UMS...

      Oh my, times flies real fast and just a blink of eye everything seems moving in a fast pace. Its been three years… 3 years in UMS and my status as an undergraduate student of school of business and economics has come to an end,. Its feels just like yesterday when I 1st step my foot in the town of Kota Kinabalu , Sabah… but now, it’s the time to leave… somehow.. I will appreciate and remember the days I once had in this wonderful place.       Its my last day here in KK and I am going back on 5th May 2010… the 1855 pm flight is somewhere there waiting for me… at some point I really don’t feels like leaving… unlike other sem breaks, I actually cant wait to go back and I am very excited each time I got to go back to home… somehow this time is different… i understand that this time I am going back, I will not come back here again for studies and meeting my fellow friends… though I am coming back for my graduation, but it just doesn’t f...

It's just too fast.. :)

All these are happening too fast!!! It’s felt like just yesterday the 1st time I ever step my foot in UMS… calling myself junior of the hp08 tourism management student of the school of business and economics. Well, out of sudden now its my last year last semester in this university. 3 years…. 3 awesome years just over… just like that.. wow.. Well, there are surely a lot of memories throughout the 3 years studying in UMS. And surely everything came to an end.. no more lectures, tutorials, classes, assignments and exams!! Hell ya, we are leaving the uni already without us noticing that. How scary was that huh?? Surely miss this place… the university, the town and SABAH especially.. I will surely return again to the beautiful land beyond the wind.. someday…. What’s really came in my mind, and what I care most is the friendship I built here throughout my studies here. I truly treasured all my friends here… well, there is surely a starting and ending to all this.. but I belief, we all can...

Pinky nite~~

       Its one hell of a night i had with my fellow friends Sam and Kish... just finish had our seafood at sri mutiara kampung air... then we decided to have a walk near by the area where all the ahquas are hanging around... looking at them at a long distance its like quite ok and maybe prettier than the real chicks... but, their voices its really giving us a goosebump...we just passed by the ahquas and they were like "ah chai, mari ham lin, kongkek..." then as we walk by they will start chasing after us and asked us not to run.. haha... its so scary.. maybe its because i knew they were actually dudes... but dressing up looking like a chick doesnt make them a chick... that is why its felt abit weird when they approached us and offer their services... hahaha.. so, this is not the climax of the nite, we finally decide to get in the car and start roaming around.. and we wanted to give those ahquas a gift and recorded it ... so, we drove near a group of ah...

Chinese New Year Celebration 2010????

     Last year, I missed my CNY celebration as I didn’t came back and I celebrated it at Sandakan, Sabah. Back then I am quite enjoying coz I met and made new friends and have the opportunity to visit places in Sandakan. Somehow, I actually very missed the celebration back at home. Which is in Teluk Intan, my hometown.      This year, I manage to come back and celebrate my CNY and I am very happy to be around my family and relatives. During the whole moment of CNY, they are the one who always by my side and spending time with me. Its still a very enjoying break for me though there are not much Angpaos. But I am happy to be home. One thing I was looking forward via this CNY break is trying to catch up with all my buddies. And maybe have a good time together since I missed hanging out with them last year. But facts have proved me wrong. And it makes me feel coming back this year was a huge mistake. Its like, I’ve been totally forgotten. Or maybe it...

Last Sem......... Happy???

   Well, school already started for a few weeks now.. and if ur asking me whether am I enjoying it so far?? Its not.. I cant accept the fact that being in a final semester I still bogged down with tons of assignments and stuffs.. maybe its my own problem being so procrastinating. Or is it because I am going back for my CNY holiday this coming February? The point is, I am just too lazy to move my ass for all these academics bullshitz.. no one to blame but myself.. cant blame the lecturers for being not understanding by giving so many assignments… cant blame them for wanting a perfect presentation and not crap presentations.. for me, there is this class.. the only class that I would not mind attending it even if the class is for 5 hours… which is the Wednesday class… somehow I personally think students will actually enjoy the class when they are not being pressured too hard in a class.. Other than sch gving me a heartache.. leading a life here in sabah for this sem seems ...
